HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF

One Of the Of Dorothy Thompson recent newspaper
columns dealt with the workings of the Office of Price Sabiza
+ion controls Thompson laid special stress the meat
problem pointing that OPS policies have caused
shortage in various parts Of the country
Then she said Normally speaking the law of supply and de-
made influences prices Where supply exceeds demand prices
fall where supply short and demand high they rise But where
commodity which has become standard article OF consumption
disappears from the market persons outside the market will
supply II TO willing pay. OPS have contributed
bring short supply and the disappearance Of beef into
illegal channels
you certainly reduce prices by creating artificial
cities"
the of her article Miss Thompson also observed that
black market suppers buying newborn bull calves at
ton fanfascay high prices After the animals raised TO
a. the eqa FIGURE So inevitably this will flow under
channels the average family will not be able TO
buy it.

Sundemann worked his hands
nervous1y. THAT you must

Yes, ] must know"
Sundemann looked into jig
gers face unhappily. A moment
Of inner warfare was expressed
in his face. The dealer was plain
ly a man of some integrity, and
a man who made a creed and SUI
perstition both of stunning all
things irregular. He said, Mr..
Merle Leighton - he bought two
Of Arents' paintings"
There was a brief delay in re-
action, and then Jigger's mouth
fell open. Leighton? Not the ra-
dio Leighton, the radio advisor
of the lovelorn?"
Sundemann nodded affirma-
ton gloomily.
Jigger fingered memory files,
plueking remembered news and
magazine publicity, blurbs in col
ums, feature vignettes in the
Sunday supplements. Merle

program an army of advice seek
ers came; Leighton, a golden
voice in the Nations ear every

maladjusted. The man was a lay
priest, a self-styled sociologist,
and a charlatan on everybody

man was more publicized than
the President.
Impossible, Jigger told himself
cautiously Impossible that a man
Of Leighton's size could be in
volved with Eric Arents or Sally
Woods. Impossible!-But Jigger's
mind kept stirring as thoughts
began to mill and clamor. The
other man, the final lover de-
scribed in Sally Woods quasi

chorage to w h m she had

Could it be Leighton; could it?

Sunderman looked a shade per-
picked. "All these questions.
This cross-examination about
Arents!'
Jigger, said warmly, Il ask you
if it isn't odd that a run-of-the-
mill artist can assure you that an
extraordinarily high price will be
met And then to top it, the ar
lists forecast is realized; the
promised price is met by some-
body, and twice in a week!
Sundemann looked alarmed by
the outburst A hand flew to his
breast and his eyes searched Jig
gers face. "So?-Is something
wrong?" he asked anxiously.
Something is" Jigger said
grimly.

waited watchfully until his re-
mark had plainly played hob
with the dealers imagination.

your wife want new fur coat?
Well, tell her to grow her own.
All it takes is a couple of Chin
chillas and a little time say
five to ten years. Then she should
have enough Chinchillas to make

Raising Chinchillas today is
one of Americas fastest growing
livestock industries.

with is q pair of Chinchillas IN

HOW WIVES CAN RAISE
THEIR OWN FUR COATS

got him back his original invest
ment.
In ten years I should have
a sock herd of 200 or 800, not
counting others l expect to sell,
he said. Il intend to raise them
as a sideline only, but they can
be made into a real business.
There are people now making
$4,000 to $4,000 a year from
them"
Chinchillas, natives Cf the An
des Mountains, were hunted al
most to extinction by 1919, when
their pelts rose to $185. In 1923
M. F. Chapman, a mining man,
succeeded in bringing II to this
country. Most of the $4,000 to Co.
900 Chinchillas now in this
country stem from his small herd.
1T will take another seven
years before the Chinchilla fur
market develops" Mathews said.
THE industry needs 100000 to
100000 pelts a year before it
can really get going"
But raising the hardy littl e
animals they only weigh about
a pound is no trouble.
1T costs only about SO a year
to feed one he said And a
man can easily take care Of 100
pairs and still carry ON a full
time job"
What makes Chinchilla fur
priced is its fabulously soft tex
