From
Airplane.
In view of the facility with which
objects many feet under water can bo
photographed from an airplane It is
possible that the navigation of such a
river as the Mississippi, with Its shift
ing bars, may hereafter be made safe
by monthly or weekly mapping from
the air. In earthquake regions, such
as southern Italy and Japan, the
changing coast lines, shallows and safe
harbors can easily be photographed
from the air after each fresh shock,
thus keeping navigation open and
safeguarding the Ilves of mariners.
Best Buy of the Year!
A splendid forty acre tract, well located, about thirty
seven acres, more or less, in cultivation. Excellent soil
throughout All under irrigation. Ten acres of full bearing,
first class orchard—Newtowns, Spitz and Arkansas Blacks.
Four roomed house and good sized barn. Spring water under
gravity flow.
I have personally gone over every foot of this tract and
do not hesitate to say that I consider it the best “buy” offer
ed during 1925. It is priced at $100.00 an acre less than it
would cost to clear raw land.
I am authorized by the non-resident owner to offer this
at $6200.00. $2000 cash and the balance on terms to suit the
purchaser with interest at six per cent.

Secretary Hoover'* annual report la
ont. Read it! lie finds that “govern
ment in business" may lie most itene-
fleient. In summarising the work of
the year he show« the value of gov
ernment suggestion aud supervision in
relation to business effort Secretary
Hoover has a hobby—the elimination
of waste! (Too bad he cannot come
to Hood River and gather up the stray
apples hanging on the tree«.) But to
go on with onr story. The secretary
has held some Otsi conferemva of busi
ness men on way« and means to effect
economies. Two hundred committees
are still working out business short
cuts and simplifications of business
practice. We are told that American
business men are Having 1500,000,000
a year ns a result of improved business
methods.
Secretary Hoover emphasizes our
prosperity in much the same way as
those employed by President Coolidge
in his address before the New York
Chamber of Commerce. Perhaps the
president tend the findings of the sec
retary. Why not? Compared with 1013
level wages last year were more than
two and one-quarter times as high,
whereas the cost of living was only
one and one-half times as high. This
means that real wages—what the wage
earner can buy for what he receives—
are far higher than they /have ever
Iteon. it means that the margin lie-
tween income and necessary expendi-
Inres is wider than ever before, giving
the American worker a better oppor
tunity for saving than he has ever had
In business organization- America
leads the world. In that regard the
report gt Mr. Hoover ia a striking]
proclamation. It'proves that we are
not only taking advantage of our great
natural resources but that we are
exploiting them with scientific Intelli
gence.
