There is no problem of delin- quency, with ever-mounting tax rates. : ik “Bonded debt down to $648,000 from peak of $1,240,700; Walla Walla reducing obligation by serial retirement of bonds; large portion of liability refunded at lower'rates.” This, again, speaks of a city with sufficient tax income to meet its needs. ’ “Bight canneries in 50-mile radius to operate this year” the possibilities for canneries by the Chamber of Commerce in 1981. Walla Walla had something to sell—and sold it. The eight canneries have a payroll in excess, of $500,000 and among other benefits, as listed by. the Bulletin are “new duction’ of fruite and vegetables when‘ fresh markets were. not easier and provided employment for the worthy, including col- education.” This is quite an achievement for four years, Not all of the aS prosperity of the contiguous area. : Many of the canneries specialize in peas, the total acreage canneries totaled more than 2,000,000 cases.

In fairness it must be said that most of the peas are raised ‘ and peas in alternate years instead of summer-fallowing after|$ wheat, as was the former custom. j Walla Walla would like to do more irrigating but the water supply is limited. It looks forward to low electric rates from a new dam in the Columbia river, now being advocated, the cur- rent to be used to pump water from the Snake river in Idaho. Folks in that area are doing all they know how to improve dry-land farming and also are seeking further irrigation-develop- There should be a lesson in that for North Dakota and ment. particularly for Bismarck. The Retreat from Wheat 2 Why the federal government is interested in the ever- norma] granary plan, plus continued control over American wheat acreage, is easily understood after a Jook at the markets of the world and conditions affecting the industry. Wheat grown in the great plains, if it is to be sold on the world market, moves to the nearest water-shipping point at ‘rail rates almost exactly double those charged the competing Cunadian farmer. This is.no fault of railroads in the United States. In Canada the railroads get substantial government subsidies, labor costs are lower and taxes are lighter. + If and when wheat from the United States gets to Liver- pool it must pay a duty. of 10. cents per 100. pounds, whereas heat from Canada and Australia goes in free.

This treatment was an accidental dis- covery—physicians experimenting with large doses of vitamin D in the treat- ment of patients suffering with asthma or hay fever observed astonishing improvement in the chronic arthritis with which several of the patients were affected. ‘We know that vitamin D is essential for normal calcium and phosphor- ous metabolism or assimilation and utilization in the body. We know that the internal secretion or hormone of the parathyroid gland regulates calcium Metabolism. We believe the parathyroid secretion ant Pensates to some extent for any deficiency of vitamin D; that is, over: activity of the parathyroid gland (byperparathyroidism) is likely to occur if the vitamin D intake is too low. The invisible ultraviolet rays of sunlight or arc lamp or mercury vapor naturally generate vitamin D from sterols (fat-like substances) itamin D is carried through the body in the blood to.the ‘This is the reason why physicians prescribe daily sun children and urge adults to expose the naked skin to as much as possible short of sunburn.
