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.

Another ‘Tam e’ Robin
Mrs. Carl G. Hall, West Hartford,
Conn., nursed an injured robin to
health and the bird adopted her

into the house through an open win­
dow.

PHOTO SHOWS the new Ford
tractor with Ferguson plow in
action. 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.
