METVFORD MATE TRIBUNE. MEDFORD, ORE( iOX. SUNDAY. . MAY 19, 1929. PAGE THREE TO F. ; -By Frank I. Weller . - (Associated Press Farm Editor) WASHINKTOXP Those who believe deletion of the export de benture plan will remove the last ohstncle to rapid enactment of farm relief 'legislation expect con gress to compromise on the ques tion of farm board membership. The house bill calls for sis mem bers and the senate bill for 12. There Is little sentiment one way of the other among farm groups. They BUggest congress make it eight or nine-and hurry the mea sure to the President for his g nature. . ; Odds favor a board of six mem bers including the chairman, with the secretary of agriculture an ex officio member. That is the house plan, which has the .support of the administration and which has made more progress than the sen ate bill. President Hoover is represented as favoring a minimum unmber. Fewer mefnbers would make fewer. jFiz.uug-a-year salaries to pay and Vdd to fhe mobility of the board. It is understood tre President wants a compact, swift-moving or firfnlzation at the ha'd of farm re lief -structure. A multitude of mo mentous problems nr$ expected to be before thc'board constantly. " All-powerful1 "anK hold Ins the success or failure of farm relief In Its hand, tho board. It is argued, can operate more efficiently If Its mechanism Is ls-compllcated. . The senate bill provided there shall be on the board one member from each of the 12 federal land bank districts. ' Agricultural; organizations ex press no choice in the matter other than that the members, whether six or' 12, be men who have been prominently connected with farm affairs from a producing or mar keting standpoint. They are chiefly concerned abbut the chairman, whose genius is depended upon to guide the hoard and whose salary is to be fixed by he Presfdent There has been consldearble agi tation for the President, with the novice and consent of tho senate, to select an outstanding mnrget ing specialist and pay him any reasonable salary he may demand. Farm groups . favor; a specialist, provided he be a specialist In mar keting farm produce, but believe bis salary should not exceed ?15, 100 a year. ., . The President has declined to discuss farm bonrd personnel or applicants until he signs a farm relief bill. f 10 MICHIGAN'S QUEEN OF BLOSSOMS vl;V- y' y-s i rn trj a m rJ B8ET V If k lf & s'A La x NEW STYLES 0NLY: Zeppelin Passenger k: Ansa b m PARIS iff) One of two things Is surely going 1o happen in the fashion world. Normal waistlines tui-k-ln blouses are going to- be the fancy of the few and ultra slender, or boned corsets which assist the wearer to the fashion able flat front are going to come hack. " t'ries qf horror can be heard In dress shops when Mrs. Avorage k Ilent starts to try on ono of tho new tuck-in blouse suits with belt ex! skirt. Those suits look so slim and nonchalant on the manne quins. Hut on the average woman bulges and rolls where . lines should be smooth and straight de cide her very quickly to stick to one piece costumes with belts at the modified waistline. There still urn itlnnlv nf litn lint belted Ings. . . The old fashioned word embon point is revived fro mobscurlty in saleswomen's vocabularies.. With tactful references to fannequlns who now appear to be stomachless as welt as hipless, they manage to convey the idea that skirts with normal waistlines should not be attempted without preliminary work with a massage roller. j t lelgh, who Introduced the use of tobacco into England, died. It is true, before his time, but he died of d sharper medicine than nico tine poisoning. As great a literary favorite as Hubert iuuls Hteven son, In one of his travel stories, spoke of "deifying tobacco," mean ing cigarettes. General CI rant did not smoke cigarettes, it is true, but he was a habitual cigar smoker. And dire as have been the predictions as to what would happen to women If they persisted In cigarette smoking, there has heen no well authenticated case of any of their number going to per dition because of the practice It Is only, we believe, a bigot who would listen with alarm to a radio program which, after providing an entertaining concert, closed with the announcement that it was sponsored and paid for by a lead ing cigarette manufacturer,' JVew York' Herald. f".;3 Lillian Shepherd, of Battle Creek, Mich., will be crowned r;.o.-rem queen at l-r picturesque Micnioan festival: at Benton Harbor New Inventions IH:itl;I MUX lU'YIXO .

Ono is that ft&h, in general, live where there is plenty of shade and their eyelids are entirely absent. There fore, when fish ore put into trans parent gloves which admit all the light there is, nnd from all direc tions at once, fish cannot cover their eyes and cannot find a shady place in which to hide. Small ob jects, such as water plants, float ing pieces of wood, -nnd stones, or "castles" sold by stores, can be put into th ebowls to make shadows. The other is that there Is air In ; the water where fish live in na ture. Aerated water Is a neces sity for life for fish. Water in globes Is still nnd free from air nnd needs aerating by means of water plants nnd fresh-poured water. The use of a syringe forc ing bubbles Into the water is still better. Growing water plants are most deslrnble. The water must be changed reg ularly, Fish In still wajer In globes swim around with gaping mouths, gasping for breath, and may soon net us My smother for lack of a if. People who enjoy seeing finh In clnbPH and who allow children to enjoy watching them, will do well to consider the-virtue of. kindness o nnimnls, even toward goldfish.
