Rueck believes that the barley loan is especially important this year. Because of the unusually large crop in prospect, current market quotations are relatively low, and contracts to purchase the coming crop are being of fered growers at prices consid' erably below the 1942 loan value. Barley of any class giaumg No. 5 or better Is eligible for loan. The loan rate for No. 1 is 60c per bushel; 59c for No. . 57c for No. 3; 54c for No. 4, and " 60c for No. 5 grade. These rates apply to barley stored either on - the farm or In an eligible com' modity credit warehouse, and any producer in compliance with ithe 1842 AAA program is eligi - ble for a loan. - Sun Rate '" .-'.

Not a housekeeper in the usual sense, for Pauline Russell Webb's "household numbers several hundred persons and many strange animals from all parts of the world. Her home is on wheels and her domain embraces the far reaches of the nation. She is, in brief, the only wom an in the world owning and man aging a three-ring circus! She. is the ."brothers", of Rus sell Bros.' Great SrRlng Circus which comes to Klamath Falls for night performance Friday, Aug. 21, and two performances Saturday, Aug. 22, at the South Sixth street circus grounds. The show became hers by fam ily inheritance. In a little more than a decade she has built it to one of the three largest circuses now touring America.- - , There is scarcely a detail in the complex process of operating the circus that does not come un der her personal supervision. She has direct charge of the personnel; does the hiring and, if occasion demands, the firing. She knows all the members of her "family" by their first names, is friend and confidant of them all. No one in the organization EXPERT STUDIES EE SEATTLE, Aug. 17 (IP) Brig. .Gen. Brice Disque, who as a colonel in the last war di rected the army's . logging of airplane spruce in Washington and' Oregon, studied another wood problem in - the. Pacific northwest today the shortage of winter fuel. "If I were living in this country,", he said, ,"I wouldn't freeze' next winter. ' I'd go out and get my own wood. . The . northwest's fuel prob lem won't be settled in Wash ington,' D. C. - The people here have to settle it. But the shortage of . wood. and coal and oil, too, for that matter, can and will be avert ed, he said. Estimates show Washington and Oregon will have to have a million tons more coal, how ever, than local mines can pro duce. Getting . it here will be problem. And if oil deliveries are shut, off, another 816,000 tons of coal will be needed in Seattle alone. When he completes a survev of the fuel shortage in the two states, Gen. Disque will name coordinator to work out riri- oriues. SITTING PRETTY TULSA, Okla.

When an elephant, or a lion, or a monkey becomes ill, or if a can vas hand is injured or an acrobat strains a tendon, she is the first one notified. She knows exactly what to do in any emergency, and emergen cies are many and frequent in uie daily We of a circus. She is a keen student of hu man nature, and a master of tact and diplomacy. Tall and strong, she knows the technique of wielding a sledge hammer and "guying out" the big top. Yet she is thoroughly feminine and radiates charm. She designs and supervises the making of the show's wardrobe. She keeps a housewifely eye on the dining department, and sees that wholesome, nourishing meals are served her "family;" with something special on Sun day and holidays.
