BIO APPLEGATE, Sept. 81. (Bpl.)
2n the face of bleak discouragement
throughout the long jreara of prohi
bition Bert Clute stayed by his Jcb
of raising hops. Today he Is one of
the foremost growers of southern Ore.
gn. and his hop yard at Pernolholme
farm is the only one In Jackson
county to survive prohibition.
"I ' had an Idea that if you stay
with anything long enough, sooner
or later you will get a break." Thus
Mr. Clute expressed the philosophy
which led him to plod ahead, even
against Indebtedness.
"After the country was voted dry,
I went out in the field and started
pulling the wires to quit the busi
ness," Mr. Clute continued, "but I
came to the house and told my wife
I was going to stay with It. I had an
idea that when everybody else quits
that Is the time to stay with a thing."
So It was by persisting In labor
ing through long hours year after
year that Mr. clute has been able to
enjoy the success that came with the
return of beer. Picking of the hops
from AO acres of ground was com
pleted a few days ago by 225 pickers.
This year's yield was good, aithough
a check up on the exact production
has not been made. Last year'a crop
enabled Mr. Clute to spend over 800o
buying new equipment and planting
additional acreage.
Success has not caused this grov.er
to forget the advantage of thrift.
Lumber was high, so he installed a
sawmill on his ranch, and nr. thous
ands of feet of pine tlm.:er cleared
from his lands, which ot;.:irwlse would
have been burned, areitillzed In new
buildings.
This year he erected a three-story
warehouse consU-ung of a cooler, stor
age room for bales, and baler room.
A baler Is being instated in the
storage room, and will operate with
a counter weight, w.'.ich also serves
as an elevator. Tclo new dry kilns
were constructs with a ramp over
which the hop" 'ire trucked, eliminat
ing the old "levator method. Through
this system. 4500 pounds of hops are
run in a 24-foot kiln from the field
In half an hour. This spring Mr.
Clute erected 12 new cabins, electri
cally equipped, for his pickers and
their families. Next year he expecte
to have a , private office on the
grounds.
Mr. Clute Is a veteran of the hop
Industry, having maintained his yard
for 34 years. His friends say he has
worked 18 or 19 hours a day for a
score of years. At the suggestion that
he deserves a pension for his hard
work, he replied, "No. I give a lot of
folks something to cat," and added
that the relief system la spoiling peo
ple. Lsst summer he took second
prize In the state wltli-trls late clus
ter varlet. which was displayed among
400 samples at the hop growers' con
vention at Salem.
The hop grower has everything to
fight, Mr. Clute says. Including mil
dew and aphis and shipments from
foreign countries. Last year England
shipped In four million pounds of
hops to the detriment of home grow
ers. This year's crop was contracted
to Hart and Williams for the Pabst
Brewing company of Milwaukee.
EUGENErflER,
EUGENE, Sept. 21. (AP) Eight
dry kilns and a large warehouse at
the J. W. Seavey hop yards on the
McKenzle river near here were swept
by flames Thursday afternoon, the
fire doing damage estimated at $200,
000. More than 500 bales of hops In the
kilns were consumed by the flames
which , apparently started from an
overheated furnace in kiln No. 4.
This yard Is one of the largest In
the valley and was established by the
Seavey brothers more than 40 years
ago. There was about one day's work
left In the yards and the crop would
hare been harvested.

Russian Trainmen Raise Real Thirst
When Shipped Eastward to Siberia
MOSCOW ( AP ) More than $100,000 worth ot wines and liquor were
lt by breakage on Soviet Union dining cara in the first lx months of the
year, according to reportt by trainmen.
But Pravda. ofllclel newspaper of the communist party, did some figuring
and suggested that the amount of llqiior loet corresponded suspiciously
closely to the consuming power of the train crews.
Breakage was especially noticeable on the Trans-Siberian express. One
oump which the restaurant car sustained In a coupling operation at Irkutsk
coft the government 40 bottles of beer, five quarts of vodka, five bottles of
cordials, five more of red wine and one container of brandy.
The conductor, engineer and headwatter all signed the report. But it
failed to persuade Pravda that the tiresome 12-day trip from Moscow to
Vladivostok had not moved the trainmen to relieve the monotony by an
occasional nip at government expense.

LOS ANGELES. (UP) Facing al
most certain death four months ago
as a sufferer from calclnoa, a disease
that has stricken only 32 other per
sons In medical history, Trudy von
Ravens be rp, pretty 10-year-old high
school graduate, today virtually as
recovered and looking for a Job.
When her case came to the at
tention ot the orthopedic clinic at
General hospital four months ago, the
girl's limbs were encased partly in
stony shells and the area of calcifi
cation seemed to be Increasing.
A diet deficient in calcium, pre
scribed on the theory that too much
lime would Increase the stony ac
cumulation beneath her skin, failed
to help Miss Ravensberg.
Endocrine specialists then took
charge of the case and a series of
metabolism tests were made.
A hormone of the parathyroid
gland, which governs the amount of
calcium In the tissues, was prescrtb
ed. although physicians were hesitant
rs it was known to rob the bones of
calcium, their most essential element.
To counteract this, a diet of milk,
orange Juice, and other foods rich In
lime content was ordered.
This seemJgly paradoxical treat
ment had the desired effect and phy
sicians have told the girl, who four
moths ago was slowly turning to
stone, that she can again go to work.
The only trouble, according to the
girl, Is that she can't find a Job.

TO GET
CLEANING HERDS
Provisions of the Jones-Connelly
bill passed at the last session of con
gress provide Oregon dairymen with
the first opportunity they have ever
had of ridding their herds of animals
afflicted with Bang's disease (con-,
tsgeous abortion) while being paid
indemnities against excessive loss, say
ofriclala of the dairy department at
Oregon State college.
This law, which considers the era
dication of this disease to be a public
health measure, ts being administer
ed by the bureau of Animal .ndustry
of the United States department of
agriculture, in cooperation with the
sum college and the state depart
ments or agrlculure.
In Oregon the work will be under
the leadership of Dr. S. B. Foster, rep
resentative of the B. A. I. In Port'and.
Plans are now completed to cover the
state county by county, giving farm
ers an opportunity to sign the con
tracts with the government under
which they will be paid for disposing
of reacting animals.
Under the new federal plan. tho.ve
who sign the contracts will agree to
have their herd tested free of charge,
and. In case reactors are found, will
dispose of them and clean up the
premises In an approved manner, and
will continue the testing at Intervals
after the cleanup la made.
In return the government agrees to
have the animals appraised that are
found to be- reactors and to pay the
difference within certain limits be
tween such appraised value and the
amount the animal brings for slaugh
ter. The amount of cash the govern-1
ment will add to the "salvage" value 1
of an animal la $20 for a grade and!
$50 for a purebred. J
The blood samples will be tested In
the laboratories at Oregon State col
lege where veterinarians many years
ago worked out one of the first suc
cessful methods of controlling this
disease In dairy herds.
Oregon is already in the forefront
of the states in Bang's dlsensi con
trol work, thousands of herds already
accredited disease free under a plan
administered by the state department
of agriculture,
