Normal Rain and Tempera
tures Help Western Sec
tion; Give Crop Estimates
Portland, Nov. 16. (P) Nor
mal rainfall and temperatures
provided western Oregon with
satisfactory farming conditions,
but eastern Oregon suffered
from lack of moisture, the fed
eral agricultural marketing sur
vey said in its monthly report
today.
October moisture was but 70
per cent of normal last month
in the east of the mountains
country and only 57 per cent of
normal for the preceding three
months. Many farmers who in
tended to seed wheat this fall
will wait until spring. Eastern
pasture conditions were unfav
orable and especially poor in
Jefferson, Wasco, Sherman, Gil
liam and Morrow counties.
Crop Estimates Rise.
Corn crop estimates, although
less than average, were up
slightly frpm a month ago. Pro
duction was set at about 1,767,
000 bushels compared with 1,
595,000 in 1938 and 1,904,000,
the average.
Oregon's 1939 potato crop was
estimated at 7,200,000 bushels,
the same as a month ago. Last
year's crop was approximately
7,310,000. Western Oregon yields
were better than 1938 but the
increase was offset by lighter
production in Crook, Deschutes
and Klamath sections. Wash
ington production was down 4
per cent but Idaho's jumped 3
per cent.
The northwest's 23,650,000
bushel apple crop represented a
14 per cent drop from last year
and a 24 per cent decline from
the 10-year average. Oregon's
2,000,000 bushels were 24 per
cent under 1938 and 29 per cent
under the average.
Peart Underl938.
The region's pear production
was placed at 20.009,000 bush
els, again 22,500,000 last season.
In Oregon the production of
both Bartletts and other vari
eties was little different than
a year ago.
The walnut crop ranged
around 4300 tons, slightly more
than earlier forecasts. Although
production was 22 per cent less
than 1938, the crop was the
state's second largest. Oregon
and Washington produced 3710
tons of filberts, an increase of
more than 1000 tons since last
year.
The two states reported the
20,000-barrel cranberry crop
was 19 per cent under 1938.
SEA SEEPS INTO
FLORIDA'S WELLS
Miami, Fla., Nov. 16. (JP)
Apparently no one realized
when 440 miles of canals were
built through the everglades in
an effort to reclaim those south
ern Florida wastelands for farm
ing that the project would
threaten to bring salt to some
drinking water of the state's
tourist trade.
But that is just what it has
done, it seems, and today offic
ials were hard at work on the
problem of keeping faucets fresh
without undoing years of labor
already spent building up the
marshland.
Salt infiltration in drinking
water caused shutdown of seven
of the 15 wells in Miami and
alarmed coastal cities as far
north as Palm Beach, although
the supply was adequate for cur
rent demands.
Preliminary investigation In
dicated the delicate underground
water balance had been dis
turbed, sea water was backing
into the canals and then seeping
into the fresh water wells.
DEEP rich chicken flavor Is not
difficult to obtain when prepar
ing a fricassee and it la well worth
the extra trouble. Place the pieces
of chicken In a two quart glass
saucepan and add boiling water to
half cover. Adjust saucepan cover
and cook chicken gently for two to
three hours, according to age. The
flexible top burner of a modern gas
range does tna trick on almost no
fuel because the burner may be ad
justed to simmer an will retail
that temperature accurately.
Add salt after the first hour
When chicken Is tender, removi
from stock and roll in one-halt cut
flour mixed with one teaspoon poul
try seasoning. Fry in butter In I
skillet until golden brown. Thicket
stock and add one-third cup cream
bring to boiling point. Pour ovei
chicken and serve with hot bisculti
or fluffy dumpllner
OF
FINALLY GOMES TRUE
San Francisco. Nov. 16. (JP)
The prospector's constant
dream of a rich pocket of gold
somehow overlooked by the
mining experts was confirmed
in part today in an Eldorado
mine where a pocket believed
to contain $1,000,000 of the prec
ious metal has been discovered
hardly 300 feet below the surface.
Walter W. Bradley, chief of
the mining division of the state
department of natural resources
said $600,000 in gold already has
been taken out of the pocket in
the old Alhambra Shumway
mine at Kelsey. It had been
worked for 50 years, yet one of
the richest finds ever made in
the state was comparatively near
the surface.
The find came to light here
because of suspicion of officials
at the U. S. mint that an un
usually large shipment of gold
could not have come from one
mine. Always on the lookout for
irregularities which might trace
to the "high-graders," who deal
in gold stolen from rich ore
mines, they asked for an investi
gation.
John F. Bongard, chief in
spector for the state division
mines checked on the Alhambra
and said the gold was there all
right.
FEES TO CLERGY
Madrid, Nov. 16. (JP) The
government today restored to
the Spanish clergy the payment
of incomes by the state, a prac
tice put into effect by the Vati
can concordat of 1851 and sus
pended by the Spanish republic
after the revolution of 1931.
In addition to the 62,000,000
pesetas (about $6,200,000 at cur
rent rate) fixed by the 1851 con
cordat at the state's annual ap
propriation to the clergy, today's
decree appropriated additional
funds to repair damage done to
church property during the civil
war.
General Franco said the ob
ject of today's decree was to re
pair to recognize "the sacrifices
by the liberal government" and
to recognize "the sacrifices of
the clergy who cooperated so
effectively with the nationalist
crusade."

Nature played tricks here to
day and dogwood trees put out
white blossoms after the leaves
turned red and dropped off.

Boston, Nov. 16. (IP) Are
Violet and Daisy Hilton, the
famous Siamese twins, two per
sons or one?
The American Guild of Va
riety Actors (AFL) wrestled with
this problem today and called
a meeting of its executive com
mittee in an effort to decide it.
Thomas D. Senna, business
agent for the guild, maintained
that the girls, now circus per
formers, should apply separately
for membership in the guild and
pay individual dues.
He maintained it for hours in
an argument with the twins last
night, but they refused to agree
and Senna refused to issue a
joint membership card to them.
Violet and Daisy, who have
been joined together by a spinal
growth since their birth in Eng
land, contended they had been
denied marriage licenses in 20
states on the ground they legally
were one, not two.
Violet was married once in
Texas, but she described that as
a "publicity stunt" and said the
marriage soon was annulled.

Fiscal Year's Revenue
Near Last Year's Figure
Washington. Nov. 16. (Pi
Federal receipts passed S2.000.
000.000 today, but, at the same
time, expenditures crossed the
$3,500,000,000 mark.
In the fiscal year which be
gan July 1, the treasury said.
it has now received $2,015,951,-
947 and has spent $3,513,744,124,
creating a deficiency of $1,497.-792,177.
Although it has been true
throughout the fiscal year so
far, expenditures were a little
ahead of last year and receipts
a little behind, revenues swollen
by better business were narrow
ing the margin between this year
and last.
Income Tax Lags.
The revenue total was $58,
000,000 behind last year, but
miscellaneous internal revenue,
the tax bracket which reacts
most readily to business im
provement because it is made up
largely of excise taxes on manu
factured products, was $82,000,-
000 ahead of last year. Social
security and customs revenues
also were ahead of last year,
but income taxes were far be
hind. Changes in income tax
collections lag almost a yenr be
hind business ch.mges.
The growing deficit has caused
the public debt to increase to a
new record of $41,205,727,831.
Secretary Morgenthau said re
cently it was up to congress to
see how close the figure was
getting to the statutory -limit of
S45.000.000.000 -ind act on a
proposed increase.
Big Sum Mailed To
Sugar Beet Growers
Salt Lake City, Nov. 16. UP)
Checks totaling approximate
ly $8,350,000 were mailed today
by five sugar companies to some
17,000 sugar beet growers in
five western states.
The checks represent initial
