WAITS! T E Dt FRANK I. VCEIXEH Associated Press Fnrm Editor) ' WASHINGTON. W) T b t fnrm koard't refussl to lock tip stablllza Min nhpat: ii eartable of the Int.r prststlon that th fsrmsrs' (allura to radue scr.ag hss jeopardised fbe government position. It ia recalled by veteran analrsts that In absorbing 200.000,000 bushels of wheat the board operated on the theory that acreage adjustment would u cut production that storage storks could be moved back Into trade channels without nndue loss to the stabilisation corporation. Farmers were told that In absorb teg the aurplua and keeping domestic markets out of the morass Into vMih fnreiim markets had fallen. the board was making it possible for them to adjust production to con sumption in a fairly painless process. New Surplus Stimulated "' Until May of this year, when ta- J filiation had run to the end set nr it, domestic prices were as much above the world price as they ordin arily are below It. In the meantime there was no perceptible reduction In planting ont slde the spring wheat belt and the new surplus of wheat acted to erase the advantageous position expected ai the result of stnbiliwitlon. Now. with the country producing virtually as much wheat as ever, the farm board finds Itself holding huge tocks on which storage chargea are accumulating and for which the anticipated outlet failed to material ise. Months ago It warned that sta bilization could not be continued in the face of repeated overproduction, Sssentlslly It meant that the govern ment could not continue to buy and hold wheat that nobody wanted. As Its present policy unfolds, stn hillrntlnn wheat may not necessarily lie sold while the new crop la coming to market, nor Is the door arbitrarily closed to a profitable sale any time one can be mads without Injuring prices. . . . Corporation Limits Sales '' To those who hsvo asked that the fioard set a definite period over which government wheat will not be old In competition with farm whent, tlie answer wss msde thst until July 1, 1882. the grain stabilisation eornoratlori would limit Ita lalea to B.OOO.OOO bushels a month. The hoard doea not say thai msxi 'ttum will bo sold every month it merely reserves the right to dis pose of thst much tf 'Hrcnmstances are ravoranie. Tho object Is to move tha wheat trot and fet the weight of surplus aupnlles off the market. ; TJnlika wheat tbat may b sold for the- pnrposa of clearing trndo channels or for other merchandis ing purposes, stabilisation wheat will not ho replaced bushel for bushel from the new eron as H Is sold. Grasshoppers are laying their eggs these days, and the state of Iowa has atarter aerial warfare against the peata to prevent their propagating a worse visitation next year. The airplane ahown above la one of a fleet put Into action by the state to spread poison bran over eorn fields where grasshoppers, but not livestock, will eat It. BURROS STEAL ICE CREAM OKKRTONM Colo. (U.R) Spend ing a quiet dny on Middle creek, L. V. Crons decided to put bin two gallon, of Ice cream in thft creek to keep solid while he fished. Surveying the neigh horhood, he Haw only two sleepy-eyrd burron, and earned the delicncy in the cool water. While Gross fished, the burros awoke, found the freejser, nosed off the cover, and enjoyed a midsum mer lunch at his expense. GRASSHOPPERS FED CHICKENS FLOKKM J'j. Colo.

Hothered by an invasion of grasshoppers, the farmers invented numerous contrivances to cateh tha pests In wholesale numbers, dried them In the sun, aftor which they made excellent chicken feed. NEEDLE IN LEO MT. CARMKL, ra. (U.R) A ruM needle has been removed from it r resting place for ."0 yonra in the right lea of Mrs. J, I. McAfoose of Mt. Cnrmel.

Not only may the waste slag be converted to use, but the heat con ! titlned in the sulphurous, flaring mass I that lights up steel towns at night, . ultto may be saved. Dr. C. A. Hasore, Industrial re . search chemist at Alabama Polytech i nic institute, has made several differ- ent types of glass on a laboratory scale under conditions which he says indicate commercial practicability. Alabama Sands Used In bis experiments Dr. 13 a sore used Alabama sands heretofore regarded as unfit for glass making. Geological surveys have not listed glass sands hi Alabama, and consequently there lia been no glass industry at Birming ham, Ala., steel center of tbe south. With thft sands and from 40 to ? Ier cent basic granulated slag, Dr. Onsore made glasses which he reports were of unusual elasticity and of high tensile strength. Borne of the glasses, he says, ap parently have excellent insulating rnialities. These glasses appear to be the cheapest to make, whereas insulat ing glass now on the market is more expensive than other glasses. Much Heat Saved By continuing the process of glass making as the blazins mnas comes from the steel furnaces, much heat mny be saved, Dr. Bnsore points out The cost of fuel in glass manufactur ing thus would be less, and the cost of glass therefore lowered. Dr. Basore's experiments have con- ., S " The smiling wife of one of avla tlon's newest heroes, Mrs. John Polando, Is ahown above In N.w York, whera she la awaiting the return of her husband who, with Russell Boardman, flew 4984 mllea In a record non-stop hop from New York to Turkey. slsted of developing processes of re moving; impurities which heretofore have prevented production of glnes from slag.
