FAKM-TO-CITY TIDE
GOES INTO REVERSE
LOUISVILLE, Ky. (jT) A well de
fined s trend of migration from . the
city back to the farm has been noted
in Kentucky by A. G. Brown, presi
dent of the federal land bank here.
"Whether the trend is due to un
employment in the cities," Brown
stated, "I am unable to say, but it
Is certain that we are receiving more
Inquiries from the cities concern
ing farmf for sale." , v
Good farms are now cheap, the
banker believes, when figured in
terms of their earning power over a
period of years.

CONTINUE SOWING POPPY SEE1S
The Diamine: season for poppy seeds
In the West Is almost continuous. It
begins In the early fall in the lower
altitudes, and may continue- through
out the winter and - early spring
months. The intense. Interest tin
poppies Is responsible for hybridists
making a special effort to Dring into
being new colors and combinations
of colors. k .
.' Some of the more recent Introduc
tions are American Legion, a tall
stately poppy of brilliant orange scarlet;-
the Tall Double- popples in- sal
mon shades; the Double peony hqw
ered doddv and those large round
sorts commonly referred to as carna-
tion-i lowered.
Then , there! are. the Eschscholtzias.
which we call the California Poppy.
These ore In . an., endless .variety of
color, including1 the Aurantiaca, which
is the true California Poppy; Tangos
a (bronzy red; Geisha, orange crim
son: Lovely, t rose salmon, and
many others. .
The seeds of poppies should alwa'ys
be sown where the, plants are to re
ma,int They are not particular, as to
soil and will thrive under ordinary
garden cultivation. They are the her
alders of spring and make a most col
orful Harden.. It. Is well to. mix the
seeds of popples with sand before
sowing. This gives a greater distri
bution. 1

King G&-6 Finds Crown Still Safe
After Ituling For 20 Stormy Years
By Edward Stanley
. LONDON W) With 20 years of
his reign behind him May 6, no mod
ern monarch has brought his throne
so .unscratched through such, world
storms as King George has weathered.
Prom the, very .start he has had to
deal with times of stress.
Barely three years of his reign could
be called "normal,", and even while
war clouds were still gathering over
Europe, the Irish question was pres
sing dangerously. '
, In . August, ; 1914. the world war
broke with Its appalling fury. UntU
Its end the king was outwardly a
cuim anu steady took, to .wnicn his
people, might 400k for assurance. - -
It was the way a king should have
acted and, in truth, the only way he
could. He came out of the war a
monarch very dear to his people as a
person. f ,
Led In Irish Settlement.
In 1021 he took the lead in set
ling the Irish troubles with a per
sonal appeal.
In 1926 the general strike, the next
big public crisis, found King George
making another ' appeal for Indus
trial peace which did much to keep
the controversy friendly and to avoid;
serious riots.
Then come his desperate illness,'
which n after vmany months left him
m'-iftn-rronvroDUst health. - .
lib was during this time that the
public affection for the king was most
spectacularly demonstrated. Thous
ands, milled, about Buckingham pal
ace While he was sick, waiting to read
for themselves the doctors' bulletins.
When later he returned to London
from his' seaside convnlescnce the
route ,was enrongea ior miles.
Last year 'the anniversary of his
accsslon to the throne was made an
opportunity for a nation's thanks for
his safe recovory. There was a modest
celebration .and thousands of mes
sages of congratulations poured Into
the palace.
: Lost.Yenr nusv.
. This; .his twentieth year, has been
pocKea witn events important to tno
British empire, which has been grad
ually changing Its character.
Early in the year he opened the
naval . conference, which brought
about ' a cessution of competitive
building. ' '
Later in tho' year at the imperial
conference the dominions pulled fur
ther away from the Influence of
Westminster, but gave the king added
Importance as an empire figure.
' Then came the Indian round table
conference, which tho king opened
personally. Upon the secure settle
ment, of this problem many observers
believe the future of the empire

There-imay'taG- dissatisfactions- with
ON GREENS . :
When the salad is served between
. the main course and the dessert, it
' should be appetizing, light and tart.
; It should not be too heavy. The
; fresh simple flavors of greens are
' most appropriate. Lettuce, endive,
cucumbers? or cold vegetables, such
' as asparagus, Brussels sprouts or
string-beans. These salads suggest
a tart, stimulating dressing . . .
Bachelor Club Dressing, Vinaigr
ette Dressing, or French Dressing.
To make French Dressing: Six
tablespoons of Wesson Oil, one tea
spoon of salt, one-fourth teaspoon
of pepper, two tablespoons of
lemon juice, a dash of paprika, and
season to your taste.
ON FRUITS -
Fruits, fresh or canned, have a
more pronounced flavor than the
simple greens. They call for a
dressing less sharp, with perhaps a
dash of sweetness or the tang of
cheese, to encourage them to give
us back their sunshine and full
fresh flavor.
The next time you have a fruit
salad, try this Cheese Dressing:
Cream a three-ounce package of
' cream cheese with two tablespoons
of Wesson Oil. Blend teaspoon of
salt; one-fourth teaspoon each of
white pepper and granulated sugar,
two tablespoons Wesson Oil and
two of lemon juice. Beat into the
cheese until it becomes light and
fluffy. Then duSt with paprika.
FOR SEAFOOD
When salad is the main dish at 1
meal,, as at luncheon let us say, and
boasts the full flavor of lobster,
crabmeat, or shrimp, the finished
salad should be garnished with
Lcmonaisc or Tartar Sauce, but
the fish should first have been
marinated.
To marinate: Mix six table-'.-
spoons Wesson Oil and two tlblc-
-spoons of vinegar. Add a teaspoon
of salt, one-eighth teaspoon of pep
per. Pour this over seafood and set
"' aside "in the refrigerator for scv-
cral hours. Serve with Lemonaisc.

Some things go well together like cranberry
with turkey, jelly with duck, mint with lamb.
And some things do. not. Nowadays when we
make so many different kinds of salad no one
salad dressing will, suit every salad.
mix a dressing
appropriate
to the salad
For instance on crisp, cool greens, a tart dress
ing such as Vinaigrette Dressing. On fruit, try
a sweet 'dressing such as Bar-Ie-Duc. Shrimp
or fish, cm, the other hand, should always be
marinated'J in French Dressing and served with
Lemon aise or Tartar Sauce.
We tyouLt) like to send you with our compli
ments, a little book by Mary B. Murray on
appropriate salad dressings a book that not
only suggests what dressings go with what
salads, but which offers many helpful sugges
tions to thff hostess as to correct salad service.

. Ife Knows II Ls Jolt: .
The .' explanation Is that King
George Knows his Job. V ; i ..
He has brought the theory that
England's kings "rule but do not gov
ern" near perfection
: Probably this is the result of the
long apprenticeship he served- to his
father and to Queen Victoria:
He was a mature mnn, or wide
travel and personal knowledge of tho
empire before his coronation.
He has seen the empire change to
a commonwealth of nations, and Eng
land go from conservative to socialist
governments. And each time he has
been ready to meat tho trend of -public
opinion when it reached, him.
In other words, - he has hnd ta
think a jump ahead of the people.
Most kings haven't been able to do
that.
Russian Heads : ,
Abolishing Card
Ration System
MOSCOW, May 13 m Premier
Molatov and Coaeph Stalin, head of
the communist party, Issued a Joint
decree Tuesday abolishing tho card
ration system for practically all com
modities except food, fuel and certain
building materials. i
This system has been In operation
more than a year. Due to a purport
ed scarcity of commodities workers
were required to obtain orders from
their unions or factories to purchase
shoes, clothes and other necessities
from government cooperative stores.
The scheme was described in the
decree as having caused a growth of
bureaucracy, an accumulation of large
quantities of goods, mal-dlstributton
of products and an nrtlficnl shortage.
: The decree declares that "the oust
ing of the private .traders does not
mean that trade will bo abolished
but on the contrary that government
and cooperative trade must increase."
This statement was Interpreted as
meaning that light Industry will be
greatly increased . and that there is
no shortago of goods. Therefore un
der the now "khozraschlot" system,
for which factories and other organ
izations aro made . responsible, the
government will make an effort to
place Bhops and stores on a basis
similar to that existing In capitalist,
countries. .a
The government's move is visualized
as. killing two birds with one stone !
gathering in excess rubiest for pur
poses of currency, deflation and pop
ularizing the Soviet regime.
