Hence there is general gratification over the abundant precipitation of the fall to date, and those who know do not complain at the current rain-and siiow storm. Klamath, during the summer, enjoyed the reputation of being one of the few green spots in a drouth-stricken country. That portion of our farming land which is watered from Upper Klamath lake received an abundance of moisture as usual, and the supply elsewhere in the farming district was not seriously short. But that doea not mean that we do not need a wet winter. The Inflow Into Upper Klamath Lake waa next to the lowest In the his tory of record-keeping here. The level Of the lake Is not dealrable, , and It caused such problema as the dangerous duck sickness. The farm land that Is Irrigated from Clear lake reservoir needs a heavy snowfall In the watershed from which It draws. Prom every standpoint except that of comfort for the lazy, wet weather la dealrable for the Klamath country thla year. It means that snows are piling up In the hills to send water down to our farmlands next summer; It means that the ranges will provide more adequately for our livestock; It means water In a country where prosperity la largely founded on water.

A Canadian editor was tarred tnd feathered last Friday by a group of farmers, who were mad at them selves for believing what the editor wrote about grain elevators. The scribe stands accused of Inciting the very riot, that left him the one and only vlcttm, Roger W. Babson, statistician now proposes a "coalition form of gov ernment, to save the Republican and Democratic parties." .Incidentally, the plan might save the nation from the both of them. The auto death list, for the city of rortland, alone thla year, now totals 60. Most of the fatalities, both In the metropolis, and the hinter land, have been caused by drivers. going no place In particular in great hurry, or too drunk to know where they wore going, If any place In particular. The pulpit' and the press have Inveighed against the slaughter, with no apparent results to date, and none In sight. It all proves the truth of the more or less ancient wisecrack: "A monkey-wrench has been Invented that wilt fit any nut on an auto, except the one at the steering wheel." B. Colernsn recalls when kerosene I cost 11 per gallon here. The price caused cltlrem to cuss John D. Rockefeller far Into the night, and allege they were paying for sending missionaries to China. Mr. Coleman also remembers that the hook in the celling, from whence the lamp that burned the kerosene, was sus pended, was long enough and strong enough to hold a 3-year-old ateer, undressed.. WHAT EVERYBODY'S DOING! People are running around in circles. And they are all forgetting to touch second base like a lot of Fred Merkles, And nobody hss time to attend to their own knitting or garden ing or various other labori, Because they are so busy finding out abov their neighbors. Bo even when thin, aren't so bad with them themselves, they don't take the opportunity to celebrate by singing "Hossnna" or "Qlorla In Excelsls," Because If worries or their own are lacking, they Just worry about somebody else's,' Of which there la never any lack. (Saturday Evening Post) Sixty -Four Communists THERE are 64 Communists in Astoria who are citizens. That was the number of votes received in the recent election by Mrs. Emilia reuhkerincn, candidate for mayor. Mrs. Peuhker inen did not run as a Communist but as an independent. How- ever, her activities in the Communist cause had established her in the public mind so well that none were in doubt as to her identity. And she received 64 votes. No better test of the Communist strength In this community ' could be made, and we suspect that Mrs. Peuhkerinen now regrets that she made the teat. She can no longer appear before .publlo bodies and contend that she represents the "workers." The vote she received pretty well answers the charge sometimes made on the outside that Astoria Is a hotbed of Communists. With such a very small proportion of her population Infected with the virus of Russian propaganda, any such charge Is patently absurd, Astoria Budget. The rains caused the horticul turists1 and the agriculturists to re joice, and straightened out the per monrnt frlrxes ot the fair sex, no end.

Another sign of returning pros perity comes to light In the corres pondence of country correspondents They are again reporting the gravl tat ion of "progressiva farmers to town to visit and trade." For months now. the event has been chronicled without any reference ot the hustling qualities of the peasant. By early spring, information should be forth coming that the tiller Is not only "progressive," but also semi -prospermia, and laughing at the so-called depression. BAN FRANCISCO.

N., retired, and declares that we are In for alternate cycles of atonna and floods, .. Captain See haa been carrying on reaearchea on the direct rad iation of the sun through the earth'a outer atmospheric layera for aome 30 years, and aa the result of his researches It waa he who predicted the cycle of drouths of the Isat several years. These drouth were drawing to their end. he predicted some time ago, and now he declares that "It Is gratifying to note the wide spread fulfillment" of his forecasts. A proof he llata: - "Abundant and general ralna In the moat afflicted ares of the Mlasiaslppl valley; nine Inches of rain In Missouri since August; 16 Inches of nun at Fenaacola, Florida, In one day; 13 Incbee at Washington, D. C, within one week; the recent typhoons at Manila; great atorma and flooda In China, and flood at hot Angelea, on the west coast of Mexico and about Seattle." How doe the captain know? He bases his beliefs on the Increase of sunspots. explaining that floods depend on tin pot which chill the earth and act aa rain- ' makers. (Oranta Paas Courier). A Strong New Party I'T'IIK election well-nigh eliminated the Republican party as 1 a serious rival of the Democrats, but it raised up a new unc that may provo more serious in .1930. It operates under two names, progressive in Wisconsin and farmer-labor in Minnesota but its principles and support arc similar ami it could be easily merged by the next presidential election. In both states the new parttea handed the Democratic candldatea a genuine beating. In Wisconsin the progressives elected th gov ernor. United States senator, moat of the congressmen, most of the state ticket and many of th county tickets. They are well en trenched. In Minnesota th farmer-labor senator and governor were re-elected over Democratic opposition and the Democrat squeaked through with only one congressman. This movement In th central northwest shows that there Is a very large voting strength to the left of th Rooeevelt administra tion, with effective leadership in the two LaFollettea In Wisconsin and Senator Shlpatead and Governor Olsen In Minnesota. If th administration at Washington slants to th, right It will surely face opposition from this group In 193(1. , The only way to head them off la to be liberal enough to steal much of their thunder and thla Is probably what Mr. Roosevelt will do. But unleaa conditions Improve this radical movement Is likely to spread to other states. The Zimmerman vote ahowa what It could do her In Oregon under those conditions Baker Democrat-Herald.

A, The solvents In most lacquers are benzene (benzol, not benzln), an llln and nitrobenzene. These when Inhaled are quite poisonous. The common symptoms of Insidious or chronic benzene, nitrobenzene or anil In poisoning are pallor, purpuric spots (Inexplicable "black and bluo" spots) under skin, sometimes bleed ing from various mucous membranes or Internally, cyanosis or bluenees r( skin, lips, nails, and anemia with progressive weakness. Flushing of face, headaches, loss of appetite, nau sea, and other symptoms due to dam age to the nervous system, are com mon.

There Is no known antidote or ef fective remedy for acute or chronii poisoning by these coal tar distil lates. Their destructive effects in the blood and the vital organs persist Ions after the acute symptoms are ovor with. Quite similar, though usually moro insidious poisoning may occur from the bad habit of taking coal tar do rlvatlves such as acetanilide phena- cetln, an ti pyrin and the thousand an l one paln-klller or fatlgue-deadener nostrums which depend on these In gredients for their effects. The serwo- benumblng action of these coal tnr derivatives by no means indicates that they are curative In any way. It Is the height of folly to take such dopc with any childish fancy that It m.w be good for whatever ails you. Ati In my opinion It ls Ju.it as foolish to take aspirin or any of the modern panaceas of that clasa without first deciding whether your heart, blood and constitution can stand such drugs. Of course suffering and pi:n must be alleviated In some condi tions, and these coal tar analgesics are perhaps the most suitable agents available for the purpose, but cer tainly the general laity abuses these drugs, often to the serious detriment of health, and It ls scandalous that vicious propaganda In behalf of this habit ls not even frowned on by our government.

In other words, Jackson county has half equalled the building of the Oregon Trail more than that, aa a matter of fact, for the roads we have today are vastly better than the Oregon Trail, which was little more than wheel tracks following the best route then available. . - ANOTHER comparison may help you to grasp the size of the Job Jackson county has done in building 1200 miles of road: It , is roughly 3000 miles from Omaha to ' San Francisco, and the building of the Union Pacific rail road between those points ranked as one of the great achievements of the past century. Taking Into consideration differ ences In construe tic n costs, and the fact that the Union Pacific roadbed when built, was far more primitive than railroads of today, It Is prob able that th building of Jackson county's 1200 miles of road ranks more or leas favorably with the build ing of this first Union Pacific line, rvEVELOPINO a big county, sucn as Jackson, from the wilderness ls a big Job.

(AP : entrance By A. D. Ktefferud BERLIN (API Nazidom Is forcing thousands of young men and women from their jobs and Initial careers into the "voluntary" labor corps where Hitlerite Idealism and manual work replace pay. For the government this means reducing unemployment lists and the dole, building up another group of adherents and getting much expen sive work done at low cost. For the youths, aged 10 to 35. it means abandoning ambitions for the fulfillment of which they had pre pared themselves; going to farms and kitchens If they are girls and to road gangs and general labor camps If they are boys. Hitler Evalts Hand Labor "The time will come," says Adolf Hitler, "when no German" can be come a voting citizen unless he first has done his time in a labor camp. "We are socialists In deed, and not only In name and theory. Our labor camps breathe the spirit of commu nity. Manual labor Is as highly re garded, as any form of work. "National Socialism is not a ques tion of acquisition of wielding pow er, but of education and discipline. "We shall succeed in realizing our Ideal, because there Is an unflinch ing will behind it." The theory and practice of feeding pigs and patriotic idealism are neat ly mixed for thousands of German girls in the "voluntary" labor camps.' They learn something about house hold arts, work in fields and forests, and take care of children and cattle, and find. In so doing, health and the satisfaction of helping the father land. Make Jobs For Elders They often are told by nazl lead ers that their bucolic efforts will help them In choosing a life voca tion, that their older countrymen need the Jobs they otherwise would fill, and that they thus have a part! in building a new and better society. The girls mostly are recent school ' graduates. Many of them are from the larger cities. Their year on a farm or In a labor cacp Is In accord ance with the nazl antl -unemployment scheme for thus removing 600. 000 young women from the labor market. The labor service offers them three choices of work: household and social service; farming and ag ricultural economics, and helping settlers in the house, barn, garden and fields. For many of them it is a new ad venture, this contact for the first time wtth soil and animals and tir ing endeavor. From the co-operation in their group they are supposed to learn an important part of the nazl creed It ls the group, and not the individual, that counts. Their day brains before the dew Is off the ground. For six hours they hoe. milk cows, make hay. feed the animals, clean the stables, clear for est underbrush, wash or repair clothes, prepare food.
