C. purchasers having a choice of paper or buckram covers. Thirty forest officers contri buted to the book, their con tributions being welded into a smooth story by Russel Lord as editor. The book is amply il lustrated, the entire work, being an example of typographical excellence. General theme of the book may be found in the foreword by Henry A. Wallace, secretary of agriculture: "Whether it U a garden, a farm or a forest, any piece of land yielding crops may also yield repose and joy. So it is with our national forests. Mil lions of us already are finding simple refreshment on these great federal properties; I hope that millions of other forest guests will come. They may be sure tjf their welcome. There are chapters on the use of forest campgrounds, wilder ness areas and winter sports centers. The national forests of Alaska and Puerto Rico are described. Chapters are devoted to other uses of the forest, such as the production of timber game, livestock, water and minerals.

OJ.Rl Business leaders of the Salinas valley have proposed that the United States produce its own rubber. using the Guayule plant as the source of supply. It was pointed out that spread of warfare to the Dutch East! Indies would Interfere with America's principal sources of j supply and the United States! might be able to produce Its rubber if cultivation of the Guayule plant on a large scale proves successful. The Guayule Is a plant which grows freely in any light, sandy soil of the type suitable for raising beans, barley or similar crops. It requires 10 Inches of rain fall In the winter, but can be irrigated successfully. Guayule requires a dry, dormant sum mer like that in California, Nev ada, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. Business groups supporting the campaign have proposed that marginal and submarginal lands, of which there are thou sands of acres in the west and southwest, be devoted to grow ing the plant. They also have suggested that lands now pro ducing surplus crops at loss to the farmers could be used also. Production of Guayule was started here in 1922. It since has spread to San Joaquin and Santa Maria valleys and into southern California. About 6. 000 acres are planted now and so far 173,000,000 pounds of rubber have been produced. Unlike the rubber tree, which must be tapped, Guayule is harvested at minimum ex pense by plowing the plant out of the ground, grinding it un der water in a pebble-mill pro cess similar to that used In mak ing cement, and skimming the rubber, which is lighter than water, off the top. Dr. W. B. McCallum, botan ist directing production . here, reported cross-breeding and de velopment of the weight of the rubber has Increased tonnage considerably. He said the rub ber averages 1.800 pounds per acre at the end of four years and 2,500 pounds after eight years. The botanist said the plant requires litle cultivation and may be plowed under at the end of four years or not before 30 years. In case of emergency, he added, the plant could be harvested in two years, al though production would be less than half the amount of a four-year-old plant.- St. Pierre and Miquelon, two rocky islands close to Newfound land, belong to France and are ruled by an administrator as sisted by a council.

Wallace Beery And Leo Carrillo Head Cast Craterian Hit Combining all the action and thrills of the best outdoor dramas with the uniquely picturesque background of Death Valley and three sterling performances by those veterans, Wallace Beery. Marjorie Rambeau and Leo Car rillo, It is small wonder that "20 Mule Team, which opened a three-day run at the Craterian theater yesterday brought one of the biggest turnouts for a long long time to the theater.

Miss Rambeau Is Josle Johnson, owner of the hotel and saloon where Beery Is in the habit of "undehydratlng" him self, and the battles between the two are reminiscent of the best brawls in "Min and Bill" and "Tugboat Annie." Carrillo, as Beery's Indian "swamper. Piute Pete, repeats the success he scored with Beery In "Viva Villa!" Between the three there are a dozen laughs a minute Photographed In Death Valley with breathtakingly picturesque scenic background, "20 Mule Team" offers further effective characterizations by Noah Beery, Limping do. 3741256 There once was a man named Curtis Kent, Whose wife never read an adVERTisementt Mr. Kent said, "My dear, You are foolish, I tear, Not to read the advertisements and thus learn where to look for the best values when you go shipping"; but his wife was not quite bright and she never did find out what Curtis meant! That last line got slightly out of hand. But the point is, INTELLIGENT women read the advertisements and thus save weary footsteps and precious pennies every day, by shopping at the right places at the right times!
