HONG KONG. Oct. 28.-Dr

They said they had learned she

The 38-year-old, rk-haired
American last was seen near the
Ferry to Kowloon on the night of
October 8. The next day her
automobile was found abandoned
at Fourteen Mile Road in the
Castle Peak area near the har-

c. c. Luscombe, assistant su-

known to her friends and family until she

There they changed the spelling to Cyd.
Meanwhile she had married Nico Charlse,

"Hey it goes around like Sid Finklea."
Today, Sid Finklea is Cyd Charisse,

QUOTA SALES

ONE THING is sure to come up
before long-surpluses of wheat
and we shall hear much propaganda
requesting the old time acreage con-
trolls, a curse to every small or FAM
lily sized farm, with a detective on
every farm-call them storm troop
ers if you wish.
I want to suggest my idea of quota
sales: Farms producing 1000 bushels
or less to be free to sell all they pro-
duce, then graduate sales in proper
ton to increased production per
farm. Acreage reduction guarantees
nothing for lean years, but wheat in
the granary is a guarantee that no
one will go hungry.-Frank Silha.

100 c PARITY

WE FARMERS don't care what
the experts in Washington say. We
know we have to have a reasonable
price above cost of production II we
can't survive.
The prices of many farm COM
modities are even now close to the
production cost-eggs for instance
If the manufacturers, union labor,
chambers of commerce, retail mer-
chants associations, etc., can set the
prices of their commodities or la
Dor, the farmers throughout our
country should also say what they
will sell their wheat, hogs, cattle,
etc. for.
I have come in contact many,
many times, as you probably have,
with the idea of a 90 percent parity,
1914-1918 period. I have some e.
ords of that period and I am sure
our present condition does not war
rant a parity of that ratio. 1t should
be based On 100 percent of parity
(present not past) as everything else
is.
We farmers buy supplies FROM
profits same as everybody else. If
there are no profits we buy no mer-
chandise unless we use OUR savings,
if any, or borrow, as we have before,
until the mortgage is ~foreclosed.
I don't say labor, merchandise or
farm crops r too high, but I do say
a parity or a relation of 100 percent,
one to the other, is what is neces-
sary to have an economic balance.
We do know there are many
things could be done in an economic
way by our lawmakers to make the
tax burden lighter. We know the
$4,000, 900, 900 interest per year alone
we pay should be reduced. We know
there are too many drones in the
hive. We know also many of our
lawmakers are influenced by the
large Hobbies paid by the big indus
~trialists to work for legislation ia
vorable to them.
These things and many more we
know. So-we farmers will reason
with them this time as long as we
can, and if the prices of farm prod
ucts get below cost of production
again as they have in the past, we
will have to make a program of oul
own.-Ira M. Myers. Flathead Coun

SCIENTIFIC STUDIES prove, and practical applications n hundreds of
farms show, that proper insulation and ventilation maintains conditions
within farm buildings which definitely make for healthier animals, in
crease production of farm animals while decreasing feed consumption,
help keep farm produce fresher longer, and add to the life of farm
buildings.
Simpson Insulating Sheathing and Simpson Insulating Building
Board are successfully and pro6tably used throughout the west to insulate
dairy barns, poultry houses, brooder houses, narrowing houses, milk
houses, and storage rooms.
In addition to providing insulation, Simpson Sheathing and Build
ing Board provide structural strength and help prevent condensation
which rots and warps framing and siding. Simpson Insulating Sheathing
Is impregnated with asphalt to resist moisture, and all Simpson Insulat-
ing Board Products are treated to resist termite, dry rot and decay. They
are inexpensive and easy to apply.
