“I Refrigerate
Your Food
WASHINGTON, Feb. 24. (UP)
—American farms have become
the most mechanized In the world,
according to 8. H. McCrory, chief
of the Department of Agriculture
bureau of agricultural engineering.
•I twae only 100 yean ago that
the ateel plow and the grain har-
vester were Invented. Gasoline
tractors came into general use leas
than 25 years ago. Electric power
on farms Is much newer.
•Today there are more than
1,250,000 farm c tratrsln
1,250,000 farm tracton In use and
electric power is available on
1,000,000 farms,” McCrory said.
“Huge combines that harvest 100
acres of wheat a day are common
in the Great Plains.
"There are 85.000,000 acres of
the beat agricultural land In or-
ganized drainage districts and 19,-
000,000 acres under Irrigation in
the West. Millions of acres more
soon will be Irrigated from huge
dams now being built.”
There Is a strong endency, Mc-
Crory said, fo rengineerlng Im-
provements to aid the family-size
farm. Among recent developments
are the 1
tractors and the
grain harvesters adapted to small
fields.
Desplt| the increase In the num-
ber of machines, McCrory said,
the quantity of metal used In farm
implements is about the same as In
1917.

She got to mooning and fret-

noticed it, heard the story, and
got her a test at Joinvillo,
France’s Hollywood. It was as
easy as that.
Hat., Poninir or Still,
Annabella says that she isn’t
temperamental in the sense of
being mean and eccentric, but ad-
mits she can get angry and stick
up for her rights es she sees
them.
She likes any sort or role as
long as it’s substantial. She con-
siders a lot of interviewers are
rude or stupid, or both.
She hates posing for still pic-
tures, but that’s a hangover from
her girlhood—when her father,
a camera fan, would spend hours
snapping her in the garden.
And now, she still has to pose.
Also she has had to take English
lessors, not only in diction but in
spelling.

ten :

Loretta Smiled at Her
The colony wasn’t always so
kind. Annabella came here four
years ago for a role in the French
version of "Caravan.” Didn’t
know a soul, or any English either.
“It was a miserable time,” she
said. “I have never forget—for-
gotten — that Loretta Young
sm’led at me on the set and gave
me tea. It was the only warmth I
had.”
Her real name was Anne Belle
Carpenter, and her father, now
retired, was a magazine editor.
In private life, she is Mme. Jean
Murat, wife of a French actor.
Professionally she’ll always be
just Annabella.
Sun and wind (she drives In
an open car) have streaked her
hair in different shades of
>rown. She has brown eyes, a
enerous mouth; wears flat-heel-
'<1 shoes, tailored suits and almost
io makeup.
It’s when she’s working on a
set, or tripping at the Troc of
an evening, that Annabella’s
“umph” is particularly apparent.
Her contours aro streamlined,
though they had a hard time pos-
ing her in a playsuit to prove it.

ence of makeup experts when

(UP) — William D. Eddy, M-yeor.
old relief client, has offered his
right eyy juzt tor a little home
and happiness tor the tew re-
maining years of lite—and he
really means IL
"I’ve thought it all out.” Eddy
said, "and I |mow that if the sur-
geons cut out my right eye ao that
someone else can sob, the strain
might cause my left eye to go bad.
It’s a risk, but the gamble would
be worth It td me.” •
The elderly man, who Uves la a
primitive cottage he built 20 years
ago In nearby Penfield, told of a
desperate struggle to exist In the
past few years. -
"You wouldn’t call It living—
what my wife and I have been do-
ing,” he said. ,
Eddy receives relief from the
town, but from his point of view,
that la not a satisfactory way to
get along. That la why. ho said,
he would give an eye for a chance
to really live again.
COEUR D’ALENE, Ida. Feb. 23.
(UP) — The richest deposits of
silver and lead In the world were
discovered in the early 1880s when
miners were magnetized to the
Coeur d'Alene mountains by the
cry of gold.
Since that time approximately
30 large mining companies have
dug into the steep mountainsides
of the district and brought out
most of the world’s supply of these
valuable metals. Comparatively
little gold was mined.
The Coeur d’Alenes, lying in the
/Idaho panhandle, run north and
/ south in the northern part of the j
\ state. Lewis and Clarke, searching
for the Pacific Ocean, were the
first white men to set foot on
them.
Gold Seekers Disappointed
Eighty years alter the nation be-
gan hearing of rich placers In the
district. Fabulous reports prompt-
ed all kinds of men to set out for
these mountain* that promised
and produced fortunes. By Febru-
ary, 1884, l.OOgf men had arrived.
The next year the miners found,
contrary to expectations, many
silver and lead deposits. Frequent-
ly the galeic lodes appeared on
the surface. Biggest discovery was
the Bunker Hill.
Then followed typical boom
towns. Eagle City was the first. Its
decline was as rapid as its growth,
however. Carbon City, Butte City,
Raven City, Myrtle, Murray and
Wardner also sprouted.
New towns appeared wherever
there was a rich strike. The popu-
lations moved from the old to the
Anew, leaving in their wake skele-
Ytons of mushroom cities. Coeur
ci’Alcne, Wallace and Kellog are
the biggest cities that remain.
Mission Is Landmark
Also remaining as a symbol of
the pioneering spirit of Jesuit mis-
sionaries is a mission built in 1854.
Thousands of men, women and
children, red and white, have been
sheltered within its walls. Arpong
those who rested there were Gen-
erals Sherman, Sheridan and
Isaac Stevens.
The Sunshine mine is the big-
gest operation in the Coeur
d’Alenes and the largest single
porducer of silver in the world. It
consists of 14 claims known as the
Yankee Boy and Yankee Girl
groups.
The Sunshine Mine's production
last year approximated one-sev-
enth of that in the nation.

Blind Man Recognizes
^yoice After 32 Years
GRIDLEY, Cal. Feb. 23. (UP)
—Corey Hanks, blind lecturer and
educator, recognized the voice of
a former schoolmate here whom
he had not met since they were
boys together 32 years ago.
Edward Bates, after listening to
a sermon by Hanks and recollect-
ing they had been schoolmates, to-
gether at Charleston, Utah, 32
years previously, spoke to Hanks
after the sermon, only to have the
latter call him promptly by name.
Hanks has been blind 21 years.

HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 24. — At
the main gate of the Metro studio
a wag pasted a sign reading in
French and German: "English
Spoken Here.”
At Paramount a well-known
native actress cracked, “I seenk
I get for myself wan leetle ac-
cent—no 7 Zen maybe I have
better chance to get work in ze
cinema.”
At 20th-Fox a foreign player
countered an interviewer’s ques-
tion with:
"Hollywood is not a good place
to make an opinion of Americans.
I meet Hungarian directors, Ger-
man producers, British writers,
and actors and actresses from
every country in Europe. But I
do not remember meeting many
Americans.”
So go the comments, mostly
satirical, as movie makers con-
tinue to bring in from other lands
a supply of that siren quality
known in the celluloid trade as
“Umph "
Umph with an accent.
Mail Be Tai-ght
Every studic now has at least
one foreign actress slated for
eventual stardom. Metro has
about n dozen (several of whom
will be weeded out) and a special
department to supervise their
training.
However capable they may ,be
as actresses, these intriguing im-
migrants require a lot of train-
ing for they must be taught
English. In fact, of the half dozen
most promising newcomers —
actresses who >vere stars In their
own countries and who alreadv
arc definitely launched on Hol-
lywood careers—only two could
speak or understand English when
■hey arrived here.
Plrvs Opposite Powell
The French actress with the
single name, Annabella played
leads in three English pictures
before coming here. These were
“Under the Red Robe,” “Dinner
at the Ritz,” and the very success-
ful production in Technicolor,
“Wings of the Morning.”
“It was immediately following
the latter hit that she was signed
by 20th-Fox. The studio wasted
litt’e time in bowb g her into ‘‘The
Baroness and the Butler” opposite
William Powell as the star.”
A preview audience found her
charming, but often unintelligible
in this picture, and was a' tonish-
ed that she could heve had so
much English-speaking expert
ence.
In about a month Annabella
will star in a film based on the
life of George Sand. She Is count-
ed an established success and a
