(Dec. 7 -Jan . 4) NOTICE TO CREDITORS Mississippi River Piloting Offers Job Opportunities Development of a nine-foot Mis sissippi river channel near Daven port, Iowa, resulting in an increase on towboat operations on the upper river has disclosed a shortage of good pilots. Navigation companies report that plenty of positions are open at pay well above $300 a month. Board, room and laundry are furnished. The major drawback to piloting is the hours involved. On a round trip from St. Louis to Minneapolis, for instance, the pilot may get away from the boat about 24 hours. Sometimes there are shorter periods of freedom when the boat is docked at a terminal. Then, too, on the upper river a pilot usually draws pay for only about nine months. In some cases a barge line will guarantee a ten- month salary. During the navigation season the captain and the pilot each stand two six-hour watches at the wheel. The pilot’s or aft watch is usually from midnight to six a. m. and from noon to six p. m. Two courses are open to youths wishing to become river pilots. One is to become a steersman, in reality an apprentice pilot. The other is to start at the bottom as deckhand and work up. In either case, knowl edge of the river in its various moods is essential. World Traveler Sees Tibet as Gold Rush Site Far-off Tibet, where the lowest altitude is higher than Pike’s peak, will be the scene of the world’s next major gold rush, in the opinion of Harrison Forman, 35-year-old world traveler. “There is a great deal of gold in Tibet,” according to the young ex plorer. Then he added: “I have seen tons of it on the roofs of Tibetan monasteries and there is more in the ground and streams. However, it’s of no value to anyone because it’s impossible at present to get it to the outside world. “The country has no railroads and no highways. There isn’t a wheel in all of Tibet and the metal is too heavy to be hauled on the backs of animals.” Forman believed the development of an airplane motor powerful enough to fly heavy freight will be the ultimate solution. California Mystery House The Winchester House of Califor nia, built by the widow of the fa mous firearms manufacturer, is about four miles from San Jose and two miles from Campbell in the Santa Clara valley. Mrs. Winches ter, a spiritualist, believed that she had received a message from the spirit world that she would not die as long as the sound of hammers was heard in the house. As a re sult, it is a strange composite of architecture with steps leading no where, strangely placed balconies and some rooms no larger than one foot wide. It is estimated that at least a million dollars was spent on the structure, parts of which have not been explored. Peach Tree Borer One good whiff of ethylene dichlo ride and the peach tree borer bores no more, says the Country Home Magazine. This new killing agent is a colorless liquid with an odor like chloroform. An emulsion is made by mixing nine parts of the chem ical with one part of potash flshoil soap and 50 parts of water. The recommended dose, for a three- year-old tree, is one-half pint (one cent’s worth) of this mixture, poured around the base of the tree, on bark and soil alike. Weaker emulsions are used on younger trees, and stronger ones on older trees. September and October are the best months in which to apply the poison.

The operator merely steers in a straight line to obtain perfect plowing results. The Ferguson sys tem hydraulic mechanism keeps the plows at a uniform depth and oper ates without attention except at the ends of the field. Then a con venient, easily-operated lever is moved to lift and lower the plow when turning. The tractor pn Is a two-bottom 14-inch plow with vase, and because of its light weight gives remarkably low fuel con sumption, average fuel consumption being one gallon an hour. The tractor with plow attached can be turned on an eight-foot headland, and worked in fence corners.
