The Farmer Takes a Wife
A Short Story Complete in This Issue
BY w. T. PERSON

and snug little bungalow on the
road; he had mules and tools for
working the good land that he had
paid for; he had a fine Jersey COW
and a big pasture of grass for her,
and he had so white hens.
But he had no wife, and though
he was a good worker he had too
much to do. When a man tills his
field all day, he can't do justice to
cooking and housekeeping; he can't
do well by his so white hens, either,
putting eggs under the ones that
want to 'set," taking off new
Matched chicks and tending them.
And Tim was so gentle and kind;
everything must be well-kept, we'll
fed. That made more to do around
the house. Good thing his Jersey
was dry till late that spring, for
there would have been milking to
do, too. If Tim had had a wife
well, during crop season, milking is
woman's work in and around Wa
verify.
IA shame it is" said Granny
Doyle over her tatting, that he
keeps Sally O'Day waiting like this.
She's ready to start helping him this
very minute"
"And why not Eileen Shaug-
nessy?" asked Miss Abbie, the spin
ster of Waverly. "She is ready, too"
GRANNY shifted. She jabbed
- her needle hard. "But it's Sally
who'll grace his hearth"
"Eileen's prettier, though" Miss
Abbie contended. what a hand
some couple they'd make"
She looked dreamy behind her
spectacles as if recalling the ro-
nance she had never had.
"Eileen's so bright and gay"
"But it's Sally's heart that he
needs" Granny declared.
You can see from this that there
were two schools of thought.
And Tim Connor was right be-
tween theml Many an evening
during the past winter, he had sat
alone before his fire, a-thinking
And sometimes he had looked into
the Goals SC long and hard that he
had seen the quiet face of Sally
O'Day-her shiny brown hair, hel
clear blue eye And at other times
the laughing vision of Eileen hac
been in the coa1s-flashing teeth
merry blue eyes, red hair.
And not only in this way was Tin
between the two. He lived between
them. The east side of his farm
was bounded by the O'Day land, ant
the west side by the Shaugness,
Land. Both were good farms, each
quarter-section of as good land a
ever a crow flew over in the regio
of Waverly.
And neither Sally nor Eileen ha'
brothers or sisters, which mad
them even as far as inheritance we
concerned. Oh, not that Tim Cor
mo- would have thought of that j
choosing a wife; no, he stood on h
own two feet and was proud of it.
1t was impossible to tell whic
way his heart was beating-wheth'
toward the O'Day house on the ca
side, OF toward the Shaugness
house on the west.

Miss Abbie said hopefully. They'd
make such a handsome couple"
Granny shifted. Handsome is as
handsome does"
"But Eileen is fine!" Miss Abbie
defended her choice.
'eThat she u.s." Granny concurred.
"She's shallow, though. Sally is a
deep, quiet river. Eileen's a gay,
racing brook"
Fiddle fuddle!" snapped Miss
Abbie.
Granny lowered the tatting to her
lap.

Miss Abbie nodded. eyes, I knew
his father as a young man."
"And l." said Granny, "knew his
grandfather, who came from Erin.
Handsome he was, too, and clever. 1
once thought he'd ask me to marry
him."
"Oh, indeed?" Miss Abbie's voice
rose. AS did her brows. She wait

Granny was quiet. Then Miss Alb

'Tim is a Conner throughout"
Tins Jersey came fresh late in
May. 1t was her third calf, but her
first heifer, and Tim was proud of
the sleek, spindly-legged %critter.
He told Sally, "She's a beauty.

How do you know she does?" Eli
leen asked mischievously.
"The way she bawls," Tim told
her. "You ought to hear her"
"I do, sometimes" Eileen replied.
Maybe that was when Tim Conner
had his idea. That was Thursday.
On Friday afternoon, late, Tim
cut across his pasture to the O'Day
house. His right hand was band
aged.
"How did you hurt it," Sally
asked.
"Mule jumped while I was tying

NLNE-DAY CID BABY AT ANCHORAGE HAS FIRST TOOTH PULLED

ANCHORAGE-W What happened to little day old Diane Lynn Weber shouldn't happen to little girl.
 Diane was born on November 29, and the obstetrician at the l83rd General Hospital noticed Diane had a new tooth when he examined her at the time of birth.
 The little ' pound and ounce girl went home on December ', and on the following day they took her back to the hospital and Doctor William Bowers a major in the dental corps, pulled her first baby tooth.
 According to the father, First Lieutenant Norman G. Weber of the 1804th Airways and Air Com munications Service, at the Fort, it was toss-up who was more ner- vous-the major or the minor.
 Anyway, Doctor Bowers did a good job.
 The Lieutenant will soon te due to pack his travelling bags and it's an even bet they don't leave thing behind, not even that little half inch tooth that Diane had pulled.

FEAR THAT 0LDTIMER
 HAS pERISnED; SEARCH
 IS NOW BEING MADE

KETCHIKAN.-- James Coleman, age about 85 and a long time resi- dent of Alaska, is missing from his home on Kasaan Bay and search of the area by Brick Lindeman, Ron aid Wick and Leonard Horn did not disclose any trace of him.
 Coleman lived at the Iron King mining property, also known as the Poorman mine, asout two and a half miles from Kasaan village, and was waterman for the mining prop erty. He may have been missing sinee November p, Lindeman said here
 Lindeman, Ronald Wick and Leonard Horn went to his cabin on Lindeman's boat, the Cygnet II, With supplies. They found the cabin closed and a great deal of unmelted snow on the roof. No trace of Cole man was found, although adverse weather conditions hampered the search. It is believed he may have tried to walk the beach to Kasaan and died somewhere along the way.

It has never been told before, but Chennault personally flew against the Japs long before he organized his famed Flying Tigers. Madame Chiang even went shop ping to buy plane for him, paid Curtiss- Wright S55,000 for a trim Hawk Special-forerunner ot the P-36.
 AS early as 1887, the steel-jawed Chennault went gunning for Japs in this private lighted plane, and Madame Chiang paid him $500 fo reach Jap he shot down In those early skirmishes, Chennault bagged 30 Jap planes for a total of $15,O00.
 The rugged China ace decided to tell this story in his forthcom- inb memoirs, but Madame Chiang put her foot down. She would only permit Chennault to say that the Madame had bought him plane. However, he slipped in his guarded hint: Tt was in the Hawk Spec ial that got my first taste of Jap flax and fighter tactics, and that I learned some of the lessons that later saved many an American pilots life over China

COMPETITION FROM THE SOUTH

While Juneau and Alaska go bithely on taking for granted the efforts of B Frank Heintzeman and the Forest Service to bring the Territory pulp mills States in the south bidding for establishment of mills offering free and certain tax exemptions that make their localities attractive to pulp industry investors
 Albert Wilson editor of Miller Freemans PULP AND PAPER and one of the nations best informed nersons regarding the pulp industry writes this n letter dated December 6:
 .sThe project that just might put a crlmp III tne Ketchikan pulp mill is the announcement by 1nterna- tional Paper Company, biggest paper company m the in the South It will be out to sell 100000 tons year of this dissolvng pulp for rayon and pastcs to the same industry the Alaska mill would serve-maybe to the same company, Americn Viscose, and looooo tons is a whale of lot of pulp for an expand ing market which used only 675,0oO tons in l948

SHOE ON OTHER FOOT

When a newsman mistakenly re- ported that White House press sec retary Charlie Ross tried to sell his Washington home before the election, Ross raised the White House roof. He grunbled to the President and beefed at staff meet ings for three days.
 Finally, at the g am. meeting of the White House staff, the Presidents military aide, convivial Gen. Harry Vaughn, blurted:
 MT. President, I can't help making the observation that during these past months when myself, Admiral Leahy, General Graham and some of the rest of us have taken knocks like that, our press secretary was mildly offended and largely amused.

Love Drippers
Washington Post)


 Being a people who do things by extremes, we are not unlikely in cur present swing away from the do- by book school of child rearing to indulge in field day of sentimentaty in the nursery Child experts are now debating the recent warning of Dr. c. C. Burlingame, chief psychiatrist and president of the Hartford Institute of Living who declared that the love starvation school, now in the ascendant, would have dripping love all over the place until the child falls and fractures his future. He was referring to congregations that might grow out Of today's emphasis on giving child security through expressed love and affection This school of child rearing advises parents to pick up babies when they cry fondle them-even rock them-and to surround children with constant evidence of affection.
 Some child experts recognize that this approach has its pitfalls as did the old rigid spinach and cod liver oil schedule Weak selfish, oversentimenta par ents can use it as an excuse to indulge and over protect their children and to make them pets or toys for their own enjoyment But that, Dr. Lawrence K Frank director of the Caroline Zachry Institute of Human Development is not love- rather it is an abuse of love due to a lack of understanding of the child needs Dr. Frank writing in the New York Times Magazine reemphasizes the need to show affection to children but if that cannot be done spontaneously then to give them some assurance that they are wanted and admired"
 In such an insecure world as the present children especially need the assurance that comes rom eVl- dence of the deep parental love. Yet with the world so menacing they also need to be trained to stand on their own feet be strong and reSoufce1ul ana free from the psychic crppng that comes from over protection Parents of today have to draw 1lne lle between dripping love and making it deep steady flow As always in times of social upheaVal theHs is the hardest job of all

UNREGISTERED LOBBYISTS

Snyder is counting upon the ar my of $500 newly recruited, home town lobbyists to turn the tlde. They will not register as lobbyists but operate as Congressmen's con- stituents.
 In most cases, Oongressmen won even realize they are dealing with lobbyists controlled from Wash ington. They will be close person. al friends of the Congressmen, picked because they can influence votes.
 To finance this operation, the National Association of Real Estate Boards is asking s5 a head from its members. This should swell the total lobbying kitty to more than s2OO,000. In most cases, however, the lobbyist constituent will pay his own way to Washington.

The first, entitled "Grow a Free
dom Garden" Extension Circular
No. l19, Is directed to those plan-
ming to grow some of their own
iood this summer, whether 1t be
in one corner of the back yard or a
whole plot of land on a farm. A
big table lists the ten main vege-
cables and how to grow them.
Points are also outlined which
should be considered in planning
garden on paper before the ac-
tual digging begins. Even the ex-
perienced gardener may pick up
a few pointers he didn't know
about, Mr.. Webster said.

AGENT Points Out
Work Ahead for
Poultry Raisers

Benton county farmers who are
anticipating seeding spring wheat
will very probably choose one o.
five varieties, namely: Bart, Ida
ed, Married, Federation or Orfed,
Frank Webster, Benton County
Agent said today.
Idaed, Married and Dried are
new. and naturally Benton county
farmers are interested in them
and want to know how each has
performed in comparison with the
older varieties grown here. These
varieties along with other varieties
have been tested for many years
in special varietal nurseries near
Pullman.
Varietal recommendations, on
the basis of present data, can be
briefly summarized as follows:
Married appears to be best adapt
ed in the higher producing areas
which receive II to 20 inches OF
rainfall annually.
Idaed is best adapted in the IN
termediate areas and on land
which is shallow, and also in areas
where hot winds often severely
damage later varieties.
Dried has limited use and
should be seeded as early as pos
sible.
Baart is still the best Big Bend
variety, especially in the drier
areas.
Federation probably will be re-
placed by Idaed and Married in
spring seedlings when there is a
sufficient supply of seed Of these
two new varieties.
