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.

Who Will Pay?
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.

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.

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

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.

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.

of honey contains approximately the
number of calorics, nutritive units,

Octagonal Mirror Enables New
Measurements of the Speed of Light
SANTA ANA, Calif. (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.

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.

HIS CRATER LAKE
By June Johnson
He proved He was our leader by
even Its location;
We give Him, of our love, In deep ap-
preclatlon.
We gaze we gasp we seem divinely
drawn
To this Magic Lake, In Medford Ore
gon. We are proud, the Leading Artist, In
every art best versed
Has given us a Lake so perfect, as to
quench mere man's artistic thirst.
Crater Lake, we can't describe It,
seems no one can
Such magnificent perfection. Is be
yond the pen of mart.
Written words are futile, our feeble
efforts we forsake,
God has expressed them all, in, His
Crater Lake.
