Evidently Commander Richard E. Byrd figured it out. for Liggett & Myers Tobacco Company received an order for 780 000 Chesterfield cigarettes, which are now on their way to the South Pole in the ships of the Byrd Antartic Expedition. The basis for this order was probably arrived at during the long wait for good weather in the Spitzbergen camp preceding Byrd’s flight over the North Pole; they just “ate up cigarettes” in those days, according to a member of the party. The question of which cigarette to choose was likewise answered from experience. Expedition headquarters quietly questioned members, and when a majority of Byrd’s picked men expressed a preference for Chesterfield, a two year supply of that brand was ordered, in addition to generous stocks of such other Liggett & Myers products as Fatima and Piedmont cigarettes, Granger Rough Cut and Velvet pipe tobaccos, and the old relible Star tobacco for “eating” purposes. Q NOT SO GOOD Minnesota. North Dakota and Montana will harvest a total of 1,107 000,000 bushels of the seven principal field crops growing in the Northwest this year. This is an increase of about 3 per cent over last year, and 10 per cent above the, last five-year average. Ordinarily this would be satisfactory, but the difficulty arises in the prices for the crop. The total income from these seven crops will be about 10 per cent less than last year. ‘ A big crop, instead of being a blessing, is often a curse to the producer, for too large a supply forces prices down, especially when marketing and distribution methods are not well organized. o “Beau Sabreur,” a great sequel to “Beau Geste,” a big rousing colorful melodrama of the French Foreign Legion—a great production at Crystal.

“LAME DUCK” CONGRESS It is a peculiar fact that Congressmen to be elected in November will not take office until more than a year later, and their first work will be to engage in a struggle for re-election regardless of any legislative program. When Congress assembles in , December, this year, a large | number will be classed as “lame I ducks” because defeated, but 1 they hold office until March 4, when the short session adjourns. Most of them simply kill time or perfect personal interests regardless of the expressed mandate at the November election. Under the proposed ameridment to the Constitution which was adopted by the Senate but defeated in the House, this condition would be changed. The resolution provided that the terms of the President and Vice-Presi-dent should end on Jan. 24 and the terms of Senators and Representatives on Jan. 4. To make Congress more responsive to the will of the people this Amendment should be adopted, and every candidate should be put on record before being voted for. DOG ATTENDED FUNERAL Quite recently a terrier followed his master’s funeral to the parish church. He had been found by his owner half starved and had become a great pet and his constant companion. When he was refused admission to the church he showed his teeth and was allowed to enter. After attending the service the dog placed himself between the clergyman and the eoffin and walked to the cemetery.

POLLUTION OF STREAMS I Pollution of public waters is probably worse at this time than in many years, George N. Mannfeld, fisheries and game sujJermtendent of the conservation department, said recently. As a result thousands of pounds of fish have been killed in streams and rivers, he declared. The conservation department is investigating numerous cases of alleged violations and affidavits will soon be filed, he added. Mannfeld called attention that owing to the extreme dry spell virtually every watercourse in the state is very low. When such conditions prevail the refuse from canning factories and the untreated wastes from cities is more deadly. Also at this time of the year canning factories are running full time. He cited these as the two chief offenders and said that worse conditions are found along the Missinewa river in Grant, Delaware and Wabash counties where city wastes and refuse from paper mills are killing the fish, and along the Flat Rock river in Shelby and Rush county, and on the Muscatatuck river in Scott county where canning factory wastes are getting in deadly work. Mr. Mannfeld pointed out that under the present laws this department may only prosecute the offenders for killing fish and the fines are slight. However, the Appellate Court has held that riparian land owners damaged by untreated city wastes may collect damage and it was the general understanding in Mannfeld’s office that some land owners damaged by those untreated wastes are preparing to file affidavits. u “Beau Sabreur.” starring Gray Cooper and Evelyn Brent.

HICKMAN HANGED William Edward Hickman went to his death on the gallows of San Quentin, Cal., prison Friday for the murder of Marian Parker, 12, Los Angeles schoolgirl, daughter of a banker. The former Kansas City schoolboy was hanged at 10:10 a. m. Pacific coast time, after repenting in the closing days of his life for the kidnaping and murder, which climaxed his crime career. Hickman was pronounced dead by Dr. R. F. Blecker, prison physician, at 10:25 a. m. The body was buried three hours after the hanging.
