Therefore, be it Resolved, That the Seattle branch of the Second Division Association, com) of men who fought with him at St. Mihiel, in the Champagne, and in the Argonne, knowing his qualities of leadership and courage, here- | by indorse Malcolm Douglas for prosecuting attorney, and pledge our- selves collectively and individually to work in every proper manner to se- _ eure his nomination and election. This resolution was passed unanimously at a meeting of | the Second Division association held in Roosevelt hall Sat-| urday night. | It is the expression of confidence and esteem held by the men who have known Malcolm Douglas in the stress of battle “over there.” A man’s worth, his intrinsic worth, will not be long hidden from his comrades under such cir tters to the! ditor— — driefty. ink or typewriter. side of paper only. your name.

And so, when his cémrades so wholeheartedly voice approval of Malcolm Douglas, it is significant. “No one will be able to stampede me into starting a case that ought not to be started,” declares Douglas, republican candidate for prosecuting attorney, “and no one will be able to cow me into stopping one that ought to be prosecuted.” King county can be assured that Malcolm Douglas has the will and the ability to carry out this pledge. t i ssive and clean-cut, that’s Malcolm Douglas. Hel ‘ is not entangled with politicians, old or new. to do his duty. He,has made no promises except to the|« public. He has no secret understandings with anybody. King. county needs that kind of a man as prosecuting attorney.

The great food crops Mother Earth produces—wheat, corn, rye, bar ley, oats and rice—are well up to the average. The American wheat crop on August 1 was more promising than on July 1. It bids fair to exceed the fiveyear average yield. It isn’t as large as last year's. That isn't necessary. Some 300,000,000 bushels were left over from the 1919 crops. Canada's wheat crop is good. ‘These, excepting alone Russia, are the main wheat producers of the northern hemisphere. Argentina, India and Australia still have wheat unsold, and now are turning under ground for next spring’s harvesting. Russia, alone of all the wheat countries, ts a problem. Bolshevism is to blarte for that. Russian peasants refuse to grow wheat to trade for the worthless rubles Lenine prints so incessantly. But even without Russia there's enough wheat for the year’s needs. Corn in the United States Is better than last year. And corn easily is turned into pork chops and beefsteaks. International crop reports indicate pleasing results tn rye, barley, oats and rice, ali of which in some lands are used as food for humans, and for food animais in other countries. Just as it is true that no famine is possible this year so ft is true that the present generation, at least, need famines. That old nightmare of a population increasing too rapidly to. food production to keep pace le—a nightmare. There’s no reality to it. The greater the demand for food the more food will there be grown. ‘The increasing demand has sown rice in swamps never used by humans before. too dry or ‘too cold for wheag. It has grown rye and barley and oats where only wild grass once stood. It has given birth to a new breed of corn in the Dakotas and elsewhere. Fine Feathers The ostrich feather business is a bird of a business now Fashion has again taken ap the plume for decorative effect amen women. Importations for the last fiscal year were worth $2,500,000 That was against less than half that sum the year previous, America’s 10,000 ostriches have cause, therefore, to strut the peacock strut because of their kiting value. The world’s ostrich flume busines now runs up to nearly $20,000,000. The first ostrich farms in the United States were those of California, along about 1882. And it ts still quite the thing for tourists to have their pictures taken by the always present camera man in proximity to the ostriches. “Wish you were here” is written on thousands of ostrich postcards mailed from California each season. But now, ‘besides the California farms, the business has extended to Arizona, Alabama, Texas and Florida while there are other sporadic and experimental farms in various parts of the country. The feathers that become plumes are picked or plucked from the tiv. ing bird every eight months, and the value of the crop is between and $100.
