In the Day's News By FRANK JENKINS Back to the farm today. The department of agricul ture reports that farm income for the first nine months of 1958 will top the like period of 1957 by 19 per cent. The report adds that "realized net" farm income for the first three quarters of this year is about 13 billion dollars. That is about two and a half billion dollars ahead of the "realized net income" for the same period last year. It sounds pretty good. BUT There's a catch in it. This is the catch: The report adds that FARM OPERATING COSTS CON TINUE TO RUN ABOVE LAST YEAR'S LEVELS. AT THIS point, politics en ters the door. The dispatches add that "Republicans hope the report will boost the chances of GOP candidates seeking election to congress from the Farm Belt." This is an election year, you know. PERSONALLY, I hope the increase in farm income continues, and that- the in crease in farm income out runs the increase in farm op erating costs. A sound agri culture is essential to the wel fare and prosperity of our na tion. But I hope even more that the time comes when we can get rid of the present subsidy ridden farm program. These political farmers farm the farmers for votes instead of farming the soil for crops. MORE campaign year poli tics: . The Republican national committee issues a memo to GOP candidates which charg es that the Democratic con trolled congress that has just adjourned engaged in a "spending spree." The Democratic Digest dis agrees. This official organ of the Democratic national com mittee says that "not since the early days of the New Deal has there been such a record of CONSTRUCTIVE and RE SPONSIBLE legislation . in one congress." TTMMMMM. It's a difference of opin ion that makes horse races. Likewise politics. AS USUAL, there is some truth on both sides. The 85th congress was cer tainly a free - spending con gress. Its spending set the stage for what is now esti- New Fall Fabrics Lavish in selection . . . luxurious in quality . . . exclusive in pattern choice and . . .

So why gamble? Best way to avoid buying mistakes is to use the basic rule of sound buy ing: A good brand is your best guarantee. Whatever you buy, you know the maker stands behind a good brand.

The freshwater clam or mussel, found in many of the country's streams and ponds, occasionally contain a pearl that may be of great value. At least one such has sold for over $20,000. But this common shellfish is interesting for other rea sons. Not least of which is that he probably was once a hitchhiker who paid for his ride.

If the glochidium, as the baby is called, meets a fish he quickly attaches himself to its gills and digs in. It takes about a day for the tiny wound he makes to grow over and become encysted. The fish notices it, of course, and is likely to show it by brush ing himself against water grasses and making "flirting" motions. But tne sensation soon ends and the fish has no more trouble during Ihe two or three weeks the glochidium requires to change himself into a genuine mussel. In fact, during this period and fos some time after, the fish is free from fish lice, another parasite that is not at all pleasant. Has No Choice - Another crisis for the in fant looms, however. When he drops off his host's gills, he has no choice in where he lands. With luck he will fall on a bottom where living con ditions will be satisfactory for the eight or nine years he can reasonably look forward to If exceptionally lucky, he may attain the record weight of four pounds with a shell size of 8 by 11 inches. But the chances are against it. Aside from human clam- mers who haven't hunted him for his meat since Indian times, there are plenty of others. Muskrats especially. And if his host fish as a glochidium was a sheepshead, common throughout, much of the Mississippi Basin, he may even be eaten by his former benefactor. The sheepshead feeds heavily on mussels, grinding easily through their shells with powerful teeth.

Jr. Huson. ttecoraer City of Medford Idaho Convicts To Discuss Grievances After Brief Riot Boise, Idaho - (UPD - Idaho prison convicts, who held eight guards captive in a brief riot Thursday, were to meet with the warden today to dis cuss complaints ranging from lack of sports to old movies. Nine prisoners rioted short ly after 3 p.m. by grabbing nine unarmed prison guards as hostages. Only nine of the 600 inmates were believed di rectly involved. The convicts used clubs, knives and ice picks to cap ture the guards. The prison officials had gone to investi gate a phony report of a fight in the prison loafing room when captured. However the prisoners, who prepared for a possible tear gas attack by soaking blank ets in water, released guard Dan Chase only minutes after the riot started because of a reported heart condition. At 4:30 p.m., after assur ance their grievances would be aired before newsmen, the prisoners released all guards unharmed. Today Warden L. E. Clapp promised a talk "without pres sure" with the men. "If there is justification, necessary action will be taken to correct the grievances," Clapp said. He termed most of the complaints "unreason able" and said the rebellious inmates were not quite sure why they rioted. He said he felt many of the grievances were dreamed up by the in mates as they talked with newsmen. Not Unreasonable However, to inmate Wayne Hoist, serving a sentence for robbery, the charges were not unreasonable. "It's like back in the days of Jesse James. You go into Agents Threaten Strike Against West Coast Line Seattle - (UPD -West Coast Air Lines, which only Wed nesday was faced with a walkout by pilots, today look ed another strike in the face when the Air Lines Agents Association announced it had set a strike deadline for about 200 passenger service em ployees of WCA. Association President Vic tor A. Herbert said in a wire to the National Mediation Board that the ALAA had authorized a withdrawal of ground workers of WCA as of noon Friday (pst). The strike would idle station agents, ramp attendants, counter and reservation agents, local controllers and radio communications work ers. Nick Bez, president of West Coast, said Herbert has been quoted in news stories as saying rates of pay for WCA passenger service employees were "substandard." "Our company offered a substantial wage increase to all classes and crafts repre sented by the ALAA," Bez said. "And these increases are comparable to the highest in the local service industry. "When we couldn't con clude on agreement we uni laterally put these wage in creases into effect retroactive to Aug. 1," he added. Pilots for West Coast, which serves Idaho, Oregon and Washington, were sched uled to strike Wednesday but the walkout was averted when WCA negotiators and the Air Line Pilots Associa tion agreed to submit their contract dispute to a neutral party.
