A young man's fancy starts to turn anew. A shortage of cow hides Is reported, and unless you want to go barefoot ed, ahoes will cost "a staggering sum," and many can remember when they were ataggered, and all but ren dered prone by 18 ahoes. O. Wig Ashpole, the cowman, does not put ny reliance In the hide shortage re port, as he has four ()' barns full of hides, that have not paid for their salt, or earned it. Mr. Ashpole has been unable to sell, give-away, or swap all or any part of his hides for a pr. of shoes. He has aufflclent hides on hand to give everybody in the state two pair of boots, and a calf-akin vest, and still have a Mt. Rood or hldea left. When told of the alleged hide shortage, Mr. Ashpole emitted a dramatlo and expressive snort of disgust. The last hide Mr. Ashpole purchased was from the Hon. J Frank Wortmsn of Phoenix. He bought the hide for 60c, with the understanding that Mr. Wortman would take the hide back home with him. Owing to the letter's training as a Baptist, he has not tried to sell the hide to Mr. Ashpole again. 4 e This Is "Be Kind to Animals Week." Maybe It's next week.

Who will pey taxes If Southern Pacific doesntt The heed ing is ours. The story is clipped from the Oregon Voter. SOUTHERN PACIFIC, Oregon's largest taxpayer, seeks $22,000,000 loan from R. F. C, for which it offers to put up $28,000,000 of underlying bonds. If Southern Pacific goes delinquent on taxes in Oregon it would set a number of school districts three months further back in paying warrants; some of them are 24 months in arrears now, with warrants selling at 35 and 40. All these warants will have to be redeemed at 100 cents on the dollar some day, at taxpayer expense, with interest. Oregon taxpayers who criticise R. F. C. for lending to railroads will do well to consider the ultimate effect on their own taxes if R. F. C. refused this loan. Grants Pass Bulletin. With All "I WELCOME the reported action of the president and the secretary of the treasury in placing an embargo on gold exports," said J. P. Morgan, head of the mighty Morgan bank ing house, New York. Mr. Morgan rarely makes public statements. He resists, all attempts of news reporters to interview him. His comment on the new financial action of Mr. Roosevelt and his secretary of the treasury is .heralded as "one of the few public statements he has ever made." Mr. Morgan went on to say : It had become evident that the effort to maintain the exchange value of the dollar at a premium as against depreciat ed foreign currencies was having a deflationary effect upon already severely deflated American prices and wages and un ' employment. It seems to me clear that the way out of the depression Is to combat, and overcome the deflationary forces. Therefore I .regard the action now taken as being the best possible course under existing circumstances. -This is startling testimony from a startling source. It is support of the Roosevelt new financial policy from an unexpect ed quarter. The Morgan statement is approval of controlled inflation as a cure for the deflation that has evilly affected "American prices, wages and employment." The Morgan opinion seems confirmed by. tidings, from many quarters, of improved business conditions, due to the vigorous and united action of the president and congress. Here is a statement by H. S. Wilkinson, head of the Crucible Steel com pany of America, who says : ; Reports we get by telephone Indicate that steel operations this week showed a marked lnorease aU along the line. - This time, we believe the business tide has really turned, "The furniture business has shown a marked improvement during the last two weeks," said Harry A. Green, bend of the Doernbccher Furniture Manufacturing company, Portland. In eluding announcement of a shortened work day, Mr. Green went on to sayi - , Last Saturday we started an extra shift, which will Involve ' within a few days employment of 680 additional men. This . move Is made, possible by a general Improvement In our busi ness. "Business failures in the United States during the month of March were the smallest in number, for that month in the past eight years," says the weekly Incorporated. The report continues: "The change from the preoeding month this year was business insolvencies in March over February was 18.3 per cent. A year ago there was an Increase of 8 per cent. The report says the business insolvency record for the first week of April "was the lowest for that month for a number of years." The statement adds: It was only slightly higher than the five-year average figure covering the yeara 1936 to 1029, Inclusive. Compared with the record for the corresponding period of 1932 and 1031, there ' was a considerable decline this year. Sharp advances in the prices of commodities all along the line were a sensational development of this week. Wh at rose several cents on the Portland market. Within 48 hours flour rose 20 cents a barrel. Willamette valley wool went up 2 cents a pound. Mohair had a market for the first time in two years and with a good demand. On every hand, locally, there is statement by dealers that "business is better." The speed with which the government at Washington is working adds to an already increased confidence in the future and to an increased faith in good old U. S. A. The good ship America has weighed her anchors and set sail. She is headed for that fine old port, Prosperity. Oregon Jour nal. . Communications Mining Then and Now. To the Editor: ritty-five yeara ago I drove a but- oher wagon from Jacksonville over the Applegate road, by Union Town, where the Camerons lived, and around by the Sterling mine, where Ollson. Baltmarsh, Towns, Kllneham mer and others were mining, and sold them meat once a week. They were good customers and always had the money to pay their bills. They used to show me nuggets that would make your heart beat faster even to day, nuugeta like big marbles that I used to play with when a boy. It took a whole day to make this trip with a span of horses and wagon, and today the same trip can be made in one hour. In the old days the miners used a wood flume or sluice box and Large fir blocks for riffles. How they use a steel bottomed flume and ateel rail Iron riffles, which are comparatively easy to take up and easy to clean and also save all the gold. Today, George Barton, H. L. Brom ley of the Copco. Mr. Bhurtleff and myself were invited by Mr. Blakeley. the owner of the Sterling mine, to be at the mine at 3:00 o'clock to witness the clean-up which was to be made after a short run. Well, we went and I'll tell the world that we saw a sight that was worth going many miles to see. Did you ever see gold scooped up with a shovel t Not a large shovel, of course, but a shovel Just the same. If you never did, and you have the opportunity Just visit the Sterling mine some time after a good run and you will see a wonderful sight. You will see a mass of gold the full width of a large sluice box slowly moving along behind the sand and gravel and then you will see Mr. Pierce scoop tt up with a shovel. 1 All of this cam from a compara Sails Set report of Dun and Bradstreet, very marked. The reduction in tively small area and there are acres and acres of virgin ground farther up the creek that has never been touched, nor can be mined success fully until the ditch that carries the water out of Little Applegate has been extended, which Mr. Blakeley tells me will be done this summer. It will be a mighty young person now living that will live long enough to see the Sterling mine worked out. We were met near the workings by Mr. Blakoley, and, after Mr.' Bromley took our pictures, we proceeded down to the flume where the clean-up was going on and stayed until they had several hundred dollara recovered ao that Mr. Bromley could get pictures of It, and then had to leave, as our time was limited. The records of this mine show that this mine produced an average of 160. 000 a yesr over a period of 30 yeara. one clean-up alone being more than uo.ooo. A commendable feature of the trip waa the know'.edge that Mr. Blakeley has permitted some two hundred men and women to operate by a slow hand method on this propsrty all during the past winter and by this method make a living, without payment to him of any royalty.

No reply can be made to queries not conforming to Instructions. Address Dr. William Brady In care of The Mall Tribune, THE HEALING Or VARICOSE ULCER. ; Obliteration of the varicose (weak ened, enlarged, thinned congested) vein underlying the ulcer Is the best j rrrra way to oring IT mii!J!. l about healing ol chronic leg ulcer. The 1 n J e c tlon treatment la ad visable. Any com petent physician can give the chemical oblite ration treatment for varicose veins In his office, without detain ing the patient from ordinary ac tivities. I warn persons with vari cose veins to beware of submitting to such treatment .at the hands of any other than a reputable, responsible physician who practices, of course, under his own name. It Is a wise policy to keep your money clutched tightly In your fist and have a police escort If you venture Into the estab lishment of any doctor or specialist who calls himself a "clinic." "Insti tute,"' "association," "company' or "corporation." If the obliteration of the vein Is not feasible, then It Is essential that the patient remain constantly at rest with the leg elevated or at least not dependent. If this Is out of the ques tion, then the healing of the ulcer Is difficult, but still achievable. Here a few simple truths are In order: 1. No ointment, salve, lotion or other medicament can hasten the rate of healing In any case. Such reme dies un Intelligently applied do very commonly retard the natural healing process. 2. It Is silly to Imagine that an antiseptic remedy promotes healing In any circumstance. Efficient anti septics unquestionably do delay heal ing In almost any wound or sore. 3. Unless complications demand medical attendance, plain soap and water Is preferable to all other anti septics for the care of varicose ulcer. And I DON'T mean medicated soap. Various means of aiding the re moval of the stagnant blood through the veins are available, and sitting or reclining with the affected limb elevated Is one of them. The wearing of an elastic stocking. legging or bandage fitted or applied after a day's rest In bed or at least before you get out of bed 'n the morning. Is helpful to healing. Skilful strapping of the leg and ulcer by the physician Is successful In many cases. Eagle Point EAGLE POINT April 21. (Spl.)

(AP) Using an octagonal mirror whirling at the rate of 8100 revolutions a second scientists plan new tests at the Ir vine ranch, near here, to complete measurements of the velocity of light. A 82-slded mirror turning 730 times a second has been employed In pre vious observations by Dr. Francis G Pease of the Carnegie Institution's Mount Wilson observatory, and Fred Pearson, University of Chicago. The observations are made In a mile-long vacuum tube Installed three years ago under the direction of the late Dr. Albert A. Mlchelson. Check of Findings Sought. Dr. KRchelson used an octagonal mirror, revolving at a lower rate than that now planned, to flash light be tween Mount Wilson and the top of another peak nearby, announcing in 1927 he had found light traveled 186 284 miles a second. He believed a still more accurate measurement could be obtained with the 33-slded mirror and the long vacuum tube. Observations made by Dr. Pease and Mr. Pearson, who carried on after Dr. Mlcbelson's death, give results about 10 miles a second less than that obtained by Dr. Mlchelson In his mountaln-to-mountaln estimate a difference of only about one two-hun dredth of 1 per cent. High Speed Aids Accuracy. The use of the new octagonal mir ror rotating at the high apeed will furnish more light beams for the measurements and should aid con siderably In their accuracy, Mr. Pear son said. Such a change In the apparatus, he added, Is highly desirable as a check upon results already obtained, and may lead to explanation of some apparent periodic differences which occur In the measurements so far made. Dr. Pease said they hope to com plete the series of observations begun nearly three years ago by the latter part of March. nesday evenings at 7:30, at the I. O. O. F. hall. AU are welcome.

Golf Bad Just . After Luncheon By JOHNNY FAttRELL As Told To Artie McGovern) One of the most harmful and yet most common mistakes made by golf ers If the mad rush to get back to the course immediately after eating luncheon. It la one of the fundamental prin ciples of good health that no stren uous exercise should be undertaken while the -stomach Is filled with food, and yet I have seen golfers time af ter time, gulp down a hearty lunch eon, and then rush out at once to play another round. If golfers would rest for at least half an hour after luncheon before starting out again, much of the ln test' n al disturbances, indigestion, et cetera, which beset them, would be easily overcome. Arter luncheon, you should relax In a comfortable chair, give your self at least thirty minutes of com plete rest, and you will find that your afternoon round will show mark ed Improvement.
