Here's a bit of philosophic truth from the Union Timee: "To wait f<*r outside builder* to make investment* in your town is to rob your awn children Of their opportunities. As strangers come in and invest your sons go out seeking jobs." Thomas D., Campbell, owner of a i#5,000-acre farm at Hardin, Mont., said Friday that as a temporary solution of the wheat problem, not one grain Of wheat had been planted on his farm this -spring. He suggested farmers should raise flux instead of wheat, pointing out that while more wheat is produced in this country than can be consumed, there is not enough flag to meet requirements.

At this season of the year the Coastal Highway is lined wi\h big trucks speeding northward with beans, peas, potatoes, strawberries, and other farm commodities. It is said that many of these trucks deliver their cargoes at the back doors of hotels, restaurants and other eating places in Richmond, Philadelphia, New York and other northern cities. So heavy is the traffic in truck and berries that travel on the highway after dark is difficult. Some of the trucks come down from the north, pay cash for the produce _at the fields and retail it in the northern cities. Kach truck owner is his own buyer, seller and transportation agent.?

Plan To Remodel Show Place of West Reno, Nevada, May 20.?'The Nevada State Journal iay> a group of Uoa Angela* and Hollywood oapitali?t? ha* obtained an option on ttye old "Sandy" Bowers' mansion, once a show-place of the west, to make it the "Agua Caliente of Nevada." The property on whieh the suddenly wealthy Lemuel S. Bower* expended approximately 1400,000 back in 1861, has been operated by Henry Hitter as a bathing and pleasure resort since 1003. Tentative plans of the prospective new owners call for the construction of a modern hotel; a fashionable casino and Bummer homes and subdivision of the surrouriding country. The old mansion, designed by an European architect, once boasted gold door knobs, silver hinges and imported marble fireplaces. Bowers, described in Nevada histories as an "easy-going frontiersman," took a fortune from the Oomstock Ix>dge in 1850 and 1860. He and his wife spent recklessly. The mansion built in the wilderness of the Washoe valley, 18 miles south of Reno, took a large part of the fortune. When Bowers died in 1868 his mon-^ ey had been wasted away. Mr-*. Bowers disposed of the mansion before her death in 1903 and it has since changed hands several times. At one time it was sold for taxes. The wide open gambling law recently enacted in Nevada opened the way for the proposed development. Five former officials of the National Bank of New Bern, N. C., were on Tuesday indicted by a Federal grand ury on charges of misapplying funds of the bank in making loans to insolvent corporations in which they were interested.

Naming Your Farm Would Add Dignity Every farm, church and achool in the county should be named. The attractiveneee of rural homesteads, churches and schooLs could be increased considerably 'if on appropriate sign was displayed nesr the highway which signified the name of the farm or the church or the school. Abo it would be well to designate on the sign any specialties engaged in such as "Long View Farm, Poultry & Eggs." lies ides adding to the attractiveness of the place $hese signs often introduce new business for th?f farm owners, tiew interest for the church and distributes advertisement for the schools. The best, signs arc made with boards painted -white with black letters. They may he of the square shape and erected by the gate or another entrance leading from the highway or they may be hung over the gate of entrance. All un-painted farm residences should be either painted or whitewashed and if white-wash is used the government formula is recommended. This formula may be obtained from the County Agent's office. The attractiveness of many homes may be added to by using the following suggestions: "Clean back yards, front yards, vacant lots, porches, garages, stockyards, roads, outbuildings.. ? "Plant trees, ^rubbery, grass plots, vegetable garden, flower garden,flower boxes. . "Paint house, fences, outbuildings, screens, porches. "Miscellaneous rubbish piles burned, insect breeding places destroyed, fences repaired, porches and steps repaired, roof repaired, screens repaired, junk and papers properly disposed of. refuse cans provided, old signs removed, shrubbery and trees trimi med."
