EXPECTING MUCH FROM HOOVER As is always the case after a president has been in office a short time, you now hear frequent comment by somf 1928 Hoover supporters and by a large number of democrats (as well as various citizens interested in the price of wheat) to the effect that Hoover has done nothing. What these critics expected him to do in the first year of his administration, or how they expected him to do it, is not exactly clear cither in their words or their minds, but a degree of disappointment is heard, nevertheless, up and down the street, throughout the valley and over the nation. In view of this the atricle by Caret Garrett in the' current Saturday Evening Post is arresting and part of it should be quoted. Discussing Hoover's first year, Mr. Garrett points out the Hoover method of administration. The right approach to the solution of anything is through the facts. Kind out what the true conditions arc quit guessing and work accordingly. He quotes from a letter written by the presi dent on this subject: "We can and must greatly increase the m'oduction , of truth, and' we must know the trtitli before 'the ''' . grave interest of one hundred and twenty million people is involved in government policy. We can sometimes speed up production -before the demago gue awakes to his opportunities. Facts are bad for his digestion and the truth makes misrepresenta tion uncomfortable. But the truth is hard to discover . . . The materials themselves are hard to come by. It takes time and patience, especially as our many inventions have forever banished the simple life. In the meantime a vast clamor of half truths and untruths and injured facts will always fill the air and intoxicate people's emotions. The President himself cannot pretend to know or to have the time for rigid investigation, but the fine minds of our citizens are available and can be utilized for ( the search." And then before he. was inaugurated a friend who knew the Hoover method of administration made the following comment along the same line: "ly a kind of intuition, people at this time have turned from the political mind to the Hoover type of mentality. This is definitely an experiment. They do not know how that kind of mentality acts. There is the danger, therefore, that when it begins to act by direct procedure the sounds of ancient crockerv breaking up in the cupboard will scare them out of their wits." Mr. Hoover answered: "Yes, there may be that danger. Jlut I am thinking of another one. People do not realize how much time it takes first to find the facts and then to distill the truth out of them. The danger is that they will become impatient, think nothing is goinpjjo be done, and demand action on premises of prejudice and opinion before the truth is ready." Which is exactly what unthinking critics are guilty of at the present time. They do not consider that a year is a short time in the presidency, a short time in which anyone could cure even a portion of the economic and social ills of a nation of this size, a short time in which the truth, the facts about these numerous ills could be assembled, to say nothing of acting on them intelligently. They consider only that we have a new president, that we have numerous national troubles (farm relief, prohibition enforcement, the high cost of armament, etc.) and that these troubles have not been removed. Given four years of time, it is probable that Hoover or any other executive will not have solved any of these problems to the satisfaction of everyone. For some of them he may not have even approached a working solution. I.iut this much is certain. He is going about the job more directly, more in telligently and with greater energy than any previous presi dent. He is not guessing. He is going to build improvement on a basis of sound fact or not at all. And so successful has that exact policy proved in modern business and industry that we are willing to hazard the prophecy that American citizens will le increasingly "sold" on it in the next Ihive years, with the result that Hoover will be returned to office without serious opposition. He might, on the other hand, prove to be a rather dismal failure, but fair consideration at the present time indicates tho con- !!.: ti-ary. ..Editor nd Publisher .....,.

Mar. 3 (Special) Grain markets were extreme ly 'unsettled during the week endinff ! March 1. Wheal prices declined ito the lowest point of the season.

Influenced princi pally by the weakness in wheat. ; Toward the close of the week.tli market ntrenirihened nmlcrislly and on February 2S prices for most grains had advanced lo n point slightly above that of a ueck ago. Continued lack of export'de ntaud lor the large market stocks in North America was largely re sponsible for th sharp decline, while Increased buying activity In the f ut tires ma rkets, pa rt icu larly for wheat for March and May de livery, together with a more active inquiry fur cash grnin ntnl snialb-r offerings ut I ho lower prices.-wore the principal strengthening lu ll uenccH in wheat. Feed grains were In steady demand while 'of ferings becntfie smaller. J'rlces re gained all of tho loss mada early in the week, and closed slightly higher than a week ago. Although fluctuations In the wheat market were unusually largc tho general situation was not changed materially European needs for bread grains were still being supplied principally from of ferings of native wheat and ship ments from the southern hemis phere. Argentine shipments dur ing tho week totaled about 3.000. 000 bushels and Australian ship ments about -.-ftti.nua bushels. No shipments from Mlauk Sea ports wi'i'o reported but Russle was ex pected to renew offerings should prices advance. Stocks of native wheat in Kurope are diminishing but offerings are still fairly largt and are restricting tho demand for foreign wheats. Good native French millir.ir wheat was iit.Jted 111 1'aris hebrtinry S' ar J1.3S1);, and Gei- inan wheat at Hamburg ut fl.SG's per bushel.

AecorHinp to leading food ehem isls and dietitians, the use of stmar s a flavor in sensoninR vegelnhles, (iienl dishes, and fruits, is entirely proper. Sugar adds 7.0 1 to essential food which carry vitamins, mineral salts snd roughage. U heightens the "taste of bland vegetables served iy themselves. It improve the flavor j of meat stews and makes them more 1 palatable. In the rase of fresh i fruits, sugar modifies harsh acids. J In vegetable and meat cookery, a dash of sugar to a pinch of salt is j 1 popular rule. This combination ; in cooking fresh peas, strinc beans, ( spinach and other vegetables, not i only improves their flavor but also ; preserves their inviting color, j The great value of seasoning and j flavoring foods with sugar is that it I makes them more enjoyable. Too ' often essential foods nrc rejected, especially by children, because they re not pleasing to the taste. Vege tables nnd cereals are outstanding1 examples of foods that can be im proved by flavoring with a dash of sugar. Good food promotes health.
