M Y WADE RECEIVES GIFT Fish.ing-Rod Maker of Lyons . Gives Present to Oregon A Magazine Editor Work of Crawford Praised By Expert of Government Lyster H. Dewey, botanist In charge of fiber plants, United States department of agriculture. In a letter under date of Wash ington, March 27, to Mrs. W. P. Dord, says In commenting on the movement here to organize the flax industry on an independent basis: "1 am especially glad to note that the company has been so fortunate as to secure the services of ,Mr. Crawford to direct the work. I was well pleased with the work which he showed to me at the penitentiary when I visited Salem two years ago. The his tory of the flax industry indi cates very clearly that the con ditions in Oregon are favorable for the development of the flax industry, but that it has been handicapped heretofore by lack of continuous successful manage ment. I hope that under the present conditions the Industry may have an opportunity to prog ress under Mr. Crawford's able management for a sufficient se ries of years to demonstrate clear ly the possibilities of flax fiber production in that region.'" Mr. Dewey tells Mrs. Lord in the rame letter that the outlook "seems favorable for a good mar ket for Tax fiber during the com ing year." He says that with "a resumption of even two-thirds of the manufacturing capacity of pre-war times, the present supply of flax fiber would not last more than three months." Coming from such a source, this informa tion looks good to the tlar grow ers of the Salem district. The Statesman will devote morejpaee to matters -connected with the flax industry In an early Issue. War on Thistles Waged By County Appropriation Marion' county Has declared war upon the Canadian Thistle. The 1922 budget contains an Item of $2000 In compliance with the recently enacted state law which calls for county appropri ations In. combatting the pest. County Judge ' Dushey an nounced yesterday lhat the appro priation Is now available and that farmers are feeing Invited to con fer with the county court In" ar ranging ways and means tof main taining the contemplated program of thistle eradication. It has been tentatively proposed that the county be divided Into districts and. that . plant pest In spectors be - appointed for eah district. These would be paid out of the fund for actual time given to the work. ' The atate law pro vides for, compulsory methods la event farmers fall to destroy the thistle on their property. In inch event . the . thistles would be de stroyed under, county supervision and the cost assessed against the . property. It haa been suggested that con gress pass n law providing that the - republic's chief " magistrate shall, on retirement, - be granted an allowance of 2S, 000 a year. There1 are now two living ex presidents In the United Statea and neither needa the money. But the suggestion Is not an al together new ' one. The picture of Grant dictating' feverishly In a race against death to provide his family with the means to live has never been, a pretty one for Americans to contemplate.

Murray Wade is the recipient of a gift that would make most fly-fishermen refuse to speak kindly to wife or friend, or even to the king of Dahomey or the emperor ot Swat or any of those four-power potentates. It is special fly rod made by H. O. Hod son, of Lyons, Ore., and has the name and the dedication wrapped into the job on silk In a way that couldn't be denied. . Hodson is a rod-making genius who lives away up in the moun tains where the . fighting trout grow, and he has spent a lifetime or at i. least all his life up to now in fishing and making fish ing tackle. This particular rod Is made from Calcutta bamboo that has been seasoning for 40 'years. It is made up in the style that has made this Oregon rod-builder one of the most famous of his craft in the United States. "I' couldn't build a finer rod for any money," said the maker, who haa as his regular customers railroad , presidents and million aires from all over Amerlca."Thls springy, seasoned Calcutta bam boo, the finest material in the world, couldn't be duplicated for age and careful selection," any where on earth; and without the wood ona couldn't build as good a product." ' The Hodson story Is interesting. He was a native Oregonian, with a passion for the outdoors. He got acquainted with an old Eng lish rod maker, a recluse who gave up civilisation and came out to the Oregon wilderness to hide himself. When he died he had taught -the young Hodson all he knew about rod-making, and be queathed to him a store of the precious seasoned bamboo that he had then had for a quarter of a. century. Hodson has experiment ed In his own way and developed new kinks that his mentor never knew; He makes his rods with 'a continuous silk winding Instaad of the long-interval silk , bindings They hare . r - - resiliency v., and strength that make them distinct ive above any ordinary rod. ; He The Great Observation Puzzle GRAND PRIZE $500.00 CASH And a whole series of other cash prizes.
