Now IS Time TO
Treat for Cattle
Lice Says Agent

With the coming of October
and the return of cattle from
summer ranges, Benton County
farmers are reminded that now
is the time to treat for cattle lice
according to Frank Webster
Benton county extension agent.
There's considerable finan.
cial loss likely if the animals &c
untreated, for infested cattle be-
come unthrifty, lose weight and
in several cases may even die, he
points out.
The reason for treatment now
is that the population of lice
builds up rapidly when cattle
are in close contact. A new gen.
Grafton appears about every two
weeks. While the animals are on
summer pasture lice tend to dis
appear.
Young cattle are more suscept-
IDLE to lice injury than older
animals. In Washington there are
at least three species of the pests,
the long and short-nose sucking
lice and the biting louise. All at
tach their eggs to the hair of the
enimal.
Webster has received from Da-
vid H. Brannon, WSC extension
entomologist, recommendations
for two types Of insecticide, DOT
or rotenone. Brannon says that
in general DOT is the better be-
cause it has a longer residual
action and one spray is usually
enough. He recommends four
pounds of so percent wettable
DOT powder to 100 gallons Of
water, or a dust Of 10 percent
DOT thoroughly applied. Rotten
one will require two applications
due to its shorter residual action.
Rotenone is used at the rate Of
one pound of five percent TO-
tenone dust to 100 gallons Of wa
ter.
Brannon adds that all portions
of the animal should be treated
with the material and that
spray should not be applied il
temperatures are freezing or are
likely to drop to freezing before
the animal can dry. Cattle are
sprayed easiest by having them
in chutes or snall holding pens.

of Richland alone" Shaws' letter
continued, "this amount, added to
the requirements of Kennewick,
should present favorable situa-
ton for builders who are capable
of producing housing in large
numbers"
Replying to question from
the chamber of commerce, Shaw
noted that some revision in the
Richland rent picture is expect
ed in the near future.
The question directed to Shaw
was whether or not action might
not be taken to bring Richland
rents more closely into conformity
with those prevailing in neighbor-
ing cities.
"As guide to the housing COM
mittee, the average income OF
permanent operating personnel in
Richland is approximately $4,000
per year." the Shaw letter stated.

Rudolph Serkin has appeared
here SO frequently as soloist with
orchestra and in ensemble with
Adolph Busch that full recital by
him is very much Of q novelty.
Constitution Hall was well filled
last night by eager admirers OF the
renowned pianist who. while con-
fining his program to three COM
posers-Beethoven, Schubert and
Chopin-nevertheless presented less
well-known works from the fr out
put. 1t has been long i'm me since
anv artist has essayed the II wenty-
four Preludes" by Chopin and this
rare group took up the second part
of the program.
A master technician with fingers
of steel, Mr.. Serkin is also one
of the finest analytical musicians
of the day. There is no effect over
looked that would add little more
| to the coloring of composition
and everything is arranged In ad-
mirable proportions. 1t is the sense
of thorough familiarity both OF the
mind and the heart with what he
plays that gives such parti icular sat
isfaction and an audience reflex OF
the type seen and heard last night.
This was especially true in the
Beethoven and Schubert. He de-
liyered the formers "Phantasie, op.
IT" and Sonata in F sharp major,
op. 49, with royal quality OF tone
that was brilliant under the i'm
pact of his nervous energy or song
full in the Beethoven style. These
two seldom played works place de-
mands on the virtuosity Of the ar
tist. but Mr.. Serkin fitted them IN
without any more ostentation than
was their due. He is a master OF
rapid dynamic changes, OF sudden
power and sudden lyricism, all the
more potent because so correctly IN
place within the strictly observed
frame of the work.
At times Mr.. Serkin taxes the
sorority Of the piano to its limits
vet he has at command q complete
range of volume which also is sub
mitted to the most careful distribu-
ton. In Schubert's 'Phantasie IN
C Major, op. IS" known as THE
Wanderer," he thundered the open
ing Allegro to yield to the lyrical
tone Of the Adagio with beautiful
suavity. His tense, snappy style IN
all bravura passages creates excite
ment, yet he can sing with soulful
effect with the same facility.
While all these qualities were
present in his performance of the
Chopin "Preludes," it was not ideal
Chopin playing. For one thing,
Mr.. Serkin's tone is better suited to
Beethoven than to Chopin and Is
somewhat inflexible as regards the
special nuances the changeful
moods of these pieces require. The
romanticism he put into the preced-
ing numbers was not the Chopin
kind nor could he jnfuse it with
the necessary subtle eloquence. The
prelude in B fiat Major" was more
his type while that in E minor was
overcast with pedantic tinge.

the B fiat minor, his virtuosity
shone. It was . remarkable per-
formance throughout for its clarity
and accuracy yet much less gifted
pianist than Mr.. Serkin might have
found greater affinity to the essence.
For expert pianism as such, it was
outstanding but not completely re-
warding in capturing the subtleties
of the music. The audience rejoiced,
however, in all that he played and
rendered him an ovation at the
close.

Selection Of Colors Plays
Major Role in Renovation

In renovating your rooms for the
spring and summer, selection OF
colors will play an important role.
It spells the difference between a
dull, lifeless room and one that Is
cheerful and livable.
There are three primary colors-
red, yellow and blue. All others
are formed by combining these
three in varying degrees and by
addition of black or white to darken
or tighten the value.
To make a small room appear
larger, utilize the cool or receding
colors, such as the light blues, grays,
greens, worries and off-whites. The
warm or advancing colors, such as
red, terra Gotta, rose, brown and
tan, have the opposite effect, ap-
pearing to reduce the size of the
room.
Rooms which are too large can be
brought together by using big, over
scale wallpaper patterns in warm
colors.

Road TO Paganism
IN WASHINGTON.


THERE can be only one excuse for
4 the complacency with which a
vast segment of the people of this
country view the spread of commu-
nism. They don't know what it is
apd they underestimate its danger
to every individual and the theology
and way of life we have chosen for
our own in these United States.
Hitler's fascism was a political
theory. The communism of Marx
and Stain is not only political, it is
a religion as opposed to the Christ
ian religion as it is possible to ina
CINE. Communism denies the dignity
of man or of the family as the
unit for which the state functions; it
bars the practice of any Christian
religion.
All of western Europe and the
western hemisphere maintain gov
ernments and civilizations based
on the Christian philosophy of
Jesus Christ. Our own government
is based on these precepts. If this
philosophy Of Christianity goes
down, then this government goes
down. And it is in grave danger
in danger because people do not
realize the danger.
Pope Plus has recognized the dam
ger to Christianity in denying the
sacraments of their church to Catho-
lies who prefer communism, not be-
cause it is political theory but be-
cause it is religion which endan-
gers the foundations of Christianity
and Christian civilization as we
know it.
Communism is the road back to
paganism. There can be no inalien-
able rights of man under commu-
nism; there can be no just powers
with the consent of the governed
under communism; there can be no
Baptist, Methodist, Presbyterian,
Christian Science or Ca Ollie
churches; there can be no free cleo
tons; no such philosophy as men
being created equal. Most world
leaders recognize only its dangers
politically as moving relentlessly
and aggressively to grab govern
ments. Political and religious lead
ers who think, see communism
breeding in hate and intolerance and
capturing mems minds and souls as
well as their political freedom.

ond fourth of the dye and hold the
top of the section out of the bath.
For the third fourth of the dye,
keep the two top sections out Of the
bath. Add the remaining dye for
just the bottom section.
If you desire variegated dye ef-
feet, use the above dyeing tech
nique, but do not stitch and dye the
material. With each additional dip
ping enough color will be absorbed
by the panel above to give varie-
gated effect.
Unusual Windows Benefit
With These Tricks
If you have two small windows
where the effect would be better
with one large window, cover the
separating area Of the wall between
the two windows with another drap-
cry, hanging your swag over the
center drapery, but under the two
outside ones.
Make small window look larger
by hanging the draperies on the wall
beside the window, leaving the en-
tire window area exposed except for
the frames.
Here's lovely way to treat bay
windows. Frame the bay window
with deep ruffle and two drap-
cries only, using Priscilla curtains
at each window. Dye ruffle and
draperies to room color and tint the
Priscillas one of the curtain shades.
Give your bedroom more depth
by framing curtains at the head Of
the bed to make it appear as though
a window were there.

Womon's World
Window Treatments in Home
Pay Big Dividends in Cheer
By Ertta Haley

WHAT else that costs so little and
y" still means so much can you
do for a room than redecorate your
windows? All other investments like
new furniture, rugs or knick-knacks
can run into lot more dollars than
curtains or draperies, and yet their
effect is not as great.
You can achieve an absolutely new
room with window treatments Of
various kinds, and if you have lot
OF remnants plus imagination, you
actually can redecorate with just
windows alone.
If you can't embark on redecorat-
ing in a big way, see what bit Of
fringe or ruffle will do! Or, re-dye
some of your sheers for the kitchen
or bedroom. You can even dye feed
sacks for very little and make TERED
curtains for kitchen or hall.
Take a critical look at the win
dows in your home and ask your
self these questions:
l. Do the curtains or draperies
flatter the window and room?
2. Do they darken the light room
or tighten the dark room?
3. Is the color flattering to the
room and its contents?
4. Is the style in keeping with
the general effect?
Ruffles Will Provide
CHEEKY Effect in Room
Ruffles may be used in kitchen,
bedroom, playroom, sun porch or
an informal sitting room. If you
have ruffles, and you want more
for a more pronounced or CHEEKY
effect, they're easy to make and
add to curtains you already have.
If you are using plain half cur
tains-let's say on the lower half Of
