' Indications point to higher coal prices for the winter of 1941-4- 2 and farmers should prepare now for extensive fuelwood cuttings this win- ter. Even if labor is available to mine sufficient quantities of coal for domestic purpose, it is questionable whether transportation facilities will be available. ' This situation is bound to create a greater demand for wood as fuel. The expanded fuelwood market should enable many farmers to dishardwood trees pose of not suited for lumber or other commercial purposes. The earlier the start is made in cutting, the more nearly the wood will be seasoned when the demand becomes active. Despite the advantages of increased demand for wood there should be offered a note of warning. The slogan should be Dont A good cutting Strip the Land. Cut the poorer plan would be: species, such as scarlet oak, blackjack oak, sourwood, black gum, hornbeam, etc. Cut crippled, crowded, or diseased trees of any species. Make use of tree tops left from recent sawmill operations. It is a good idea not to cut more than of the total volume of timber in any one area of average hardwood stands. This will give a profitable harvest, and at the same time maintain an adequate stand of growing stock. It can be safely predicted that numerous farm and urban residents will install automatic g stoves or heaters this fall. One city in the South installed 3,000 g stoves for heating residences, stores and other buildings in one year. low-gra- one-four- Delicious Recipes Free de Myron C.

Lewis of United Mine Workers are shown as they left the White House after conferring with President Roosevelt on the strike of 53,000 miners of nations captive coal mines. It was shortly following this conference that Lewis announced that the miners had accepted the Presidents proposal for opening the mines and would go back to work pending further consideration of the issues under dispute. th The captive coal mine strike, in which 53,000 men engaged in digging coal out of the ground to supply steel companies the defense-lade- n laid down their tools, approached a showdown in the fight between John L. Lewis and President Roosevelt. It has been an odd chain of events that had brought Lewis, once a close ally and supporter of the President and his labor policy, to the point where he had become, for the moment, Administration Enemy No. wood-burnin- Hides and Skins Become Valuable Farm Product 1. price-per-pou- Synthetic Resin Proves Control for Red Spider BERKELEY. An unexpected laboratory discovery made during investigation of an entirely unrelated subject at the University of California college of agriculture has resulted in discovery of a new weapon for use in controlling red spider. Red spider attacks hundreds of different plants grown both in the greenhouse and in the field. The new insecticide which has proven so effective in controlling the pest is a synthetic resin, phthalic glyceryl resin. Drs. P. A. Ark and C. M. Tompkins of the plant pathology division discovered its remarkable efficiency or control of red spiders. A 2 per cent solution of the resin in water applied to plants heavily infested with red spider was found to kill adults and also eggs within five days. Many of the insecticides used for control of red spider have proved ineffective. al-k- U. S. NAVY: Loses a Warship SHOWDOWN: The Lewis Affair wood-burnin- Hides and skins are among the raw mahighest terials that agriculture produces. The tanner often pays as much or more per pound for the best flayed and cured hides and skins of cattle and calves than the butcher pays for the dressed carcasses of these animals. Yet, because they are byproducts of another industry and frequently are marketed by undiscriminating methods, hides and skins are all too often treated with but little regard for what should be done to realize their maximum value. It is generally considered that for cattle an average of about 7 per cent of the live weight and about 11 per cent of the value of the live animal is in the hide. In the case of calves, the skin may equal as much as 20 per cent of the value on the hoof. The importance of hides' and skins is shown by the fact that about 125,000,000 are tanned annually, worth around $200,000,000. The leather produced has a normal factory valuation of around $450,000,000. It is converted into shoes, belting, harness, and other goods for which consumers spend yearly close to $2,000,000,000. Domestic production is about 40,000,000 hides and skins annually, worth well over $100,000,000. It is necessary to draw upon foreign countries for the balance. sug- ar that has become lumpy should . of the After a four -- day tie-u- p mines there came a truce. Lewis, with Myron Taylor, former U. S. Steel chief and William H. Davis of the National Mediation board were called to the White House for a conference with President Roosevelt. Following this meeting Lewis called his district mine labor chiefs into a parley and then came the announcement that the miners would go back to work pending mediation proceedings of the dispute. It was declared that arrangement called for a truce with signs pointing toward a complete settlement. The issue in the strike was a particularly interesting one, for it had nothing to do with collective bargaining rights, with wages or hours, but a fiat demand for the closed shop. 15-d- ay TRANSPORTATION: Tragedies After five months without a fatal crash the commercial airlines had a tragic 24 hours in which two airliners crashed to the earth with a death toll of 34. First accident was that of a plane which crashed and burned in the fog and mist within a short distance of the Fargo, N. D., airport where it was preparing to land. Fourteen persons were killed with the pilot being the lone survivor. He suffered minor injuries and severe shock. Unofficial investigators indicated that ice had formed rapidly on the wings of his plane as he descended for the landing but a complete official investigation was immediately launched to find all the facts. , Twenty persons, all those aboard, were killed in the other crack-u- p when a plane bound from New York to Chicago plunged to earth and burst into flames near St. Thomas, Ontario. This plane too had been flying low in a heavy fog. No explanation of the cause of the crash was immediately determined. WEATHER: In Moscow The military miracle needed to save Moscow from almost certain conquest by the Nazi mechanized hordes occurred, and came in the form of a heavy rain which turned a sea of snow into mud and slush, and bogged the Germans down. Prior to this the defending Russians had reported the pep gone from the invading forces, and that the presence among the prisoners of d men, soldiers with limping legs and other basic physical defects had been significant. one-eye- First warship of the U. S. navy to be lost in the current European war was the U. S. destroyer Reuben James, which was torpedoed and sunk while on convoy duty west of Iceland. Its sinking marked the first loss of a U. S. naval vessel since President Roosevelt commanded the navy to shoot on sight any foreign raiders entering what have been defined as U. S. defensive waters. This sinking came just two weeks after the Kearny incident in which that destroyer survived a torpedo blast and made port after the loss of 11 lives. The Reuben James was under the command of Lieut. Comdr. H. L. Edwards and was an old type, flush deck destroyer commissioned in 1929. MAP: Of South America Though there was much fodder for comment in the Presidents Navy day address, it was the map of South America which had drawn the most attention in the press of the Western hemisphere. The story had been that Hitler had employed 200 geographers and at Koenigsberg to redraw the map pf South America, giving certain countries there and in Central America the status of vassal map-make- rs states of the Axis.. There were 14 countries involved, and they would have been divided up and consolidated into five vassal countries, two of them under the control of Italy, one enormous section under the direct guardianship of Hitler and the others to go to Japan. Argentina and Uruguay were to be II Duces vassals; Peru, Chile and Paraguay would be under control of Japan, and all the territory from Brazil north to the Panama canal would be Hitlers lebens-rau1 IRE: ) Shown by Group The isolationists had shown their ire against the Presidents speech as an exposition of his own policy, and, led by Wheeler and Taft in the senate had fired shot and shell into Senator Pepper of Florida, a backer of the Presidents foreign policy.

Useful to Others True charity is the desire to be useful to others without thoughts of compensation. Swedenborg. LIFE: In Germany Through a pronouncement by Paul Joseph Goebbels, Nazi propaganda minister, one had received a partial picture of what the Royal Air force had been doing to Germany and how life was changing there as compared with that before the bombing of the Reich started in earnest. He said I know you have it hard today. You must all work as never before. Your wives must sometimes stand for hours before stores in order to buy some vegetables. Your children frequently are sent into the country and separated from you for months. Sometimes you have to go without a glass of beer, sometimes without cigarettes. Then, because necessary hands are not available, you have to shovel coal. Then, at nights, go d into protection cellars and after two hours sleep go back to hard work. That is the way it is in many cities of the Reich, and in some even worse. air-rai- ( can easily change the gasping of a head cold Into relaxing comfort If you use Mentholatum.

DON'T LET CONSTIPATION JAPAN: SLOW YOU UP More Restive Nippon, chafing under the terms American-Britis- h peace with Japan under her present policy was evidently becoming more restless. The newspaper Yomiuri, writing of President Roosevelts promise of full aid to the Chungking governof ment, said: American aid to the Soviets and Britain is reasonable and acceptable, but support to Chungking, which is not at war with Germany, is inconsistent in view of the United States aim of destroying Hitler- ism. This promise of all-oaid may be taken as a direct challenge to ut Japan. In the meantime it was reported from Shanghai that Japan, despairing of ever being able to build a real government under the regime of Wang Ching-Win occupied China, was now turning to a new ei plan. The Japanese were seeking, it was said, to establish small new local governments. The first of these was to be set up at Kukiang with jurisdiction over three occupied provinces and part of a fourth.
