! CIOTHES EEFINE NUDISTS' CASTE
i SANTA CRUZ. Cal. (UP) A caste
J system for nudists has been intro
duced into the Elysium colony near
Holy City, according to Arch Mc
Dowell, its manager.
The system. McDowell avers, has
cn? great advantage over all other
caste systems in the world. A person
who starts in one caste is not con
demned to remain there for life. In
stead, there is a progressive system.
All that is required for the candi
date to progress is for him to dis
card more clothes.
The topography of' the Elysium
colony does much to make this pos
sible. In the center is a hill with an
altitude of 1,128 feet. It is here
that the system approaches its high
est form that of complete nudity.
The hill has been divided into a
series of horizontal barriers or zones.
At the base nudists can .wear all
the clothes they want. Then, if they
wish, they can pass on up into the
higher zone by shedding a few
clothes.
However, thos? who attain the
highest caste (and altitude) of
nudity may descend only by putting
on their clothes.
The great advantage of the sys
tem. McDowell explains, is that it
keeps those who are not confirmed
nudists separated from those who
are.

Feed Conserva
tion Urged for
Nebraska Farms
Feed Crop Conservation Asked to
Build Up Greater Livestock
Units on the Farms.
Proper conservation of feed crops
is of utmost importance on Nebraska
farms in view of the present crop con
ditions, declared L. A. White, state
farm security administration direc
tor. He pointed out that rehabili
tation loans made by the FSA have
been based on farm plans empha
sizing a definite trend toward great
er livestock and livestock product
enterprises as stabilizers of farm in
come and away from too much de
pendence on cash crops.
"The value of such farm diversi
fication is more apparent than ever
at this time," White said. "It is
imperative that all available feed be
conserved just now to insure the
development of an adequate live
stock subsistence unit on every farm.
Subsistence and foundation livestock
units must be re-established on
every Nebraska farm if the farmers
are going to be able to meet their
present obligations and build for fu
ture security."
The bulk of repayments on FSA
rehabilitation loans are originating
from farmers who have followed
diversified farming practices. White
stated. He added that as a general
thing the farmer with a good feed
crop and some livestock to feed it
to is away ahead of the farmer who
depended on a cash grain crop this
years.
Trench silos. White said, are being
stressed by the farm security admin
istration staff in all sections of the
state as a method by which the pres
ent available feed crop can be pre
served. I ren of Gandy, Mr. and Mrs. H. L.
Scattergood, Mr. and Mrs. Lester
Ccattergood and family, Mr. and
Mrs. Charles Scattergood and daugh
ters. Mr. and Mrs. Harold Scatter
good and son and Ralph Ransford
were among those who were there.
Club Picnic
Camp Creek Club members and
their families enjoyed a picnic sup
per at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Harry Fischer Friday evening.
The evening was spent playing
games and visiting and a very good
time was enjoyed by every one.
About fifty were present.
STUDY SEA COLORATION
LA JOLLA, Cal. (VP) "Red wa
ter" which has appeared in the Paci
fic ocean off points 2,000 miles apart
during the past months, has started
scientists of the University of Cali
fornia's Scripps Institution of Ocean
ography on a study of the phenome
non. The coloration is known to be
caused by the presence of vast masses
of marine microscopic organisms,
called diatoms, but there still is much
to be learned about the cause and
nature of red water.
Early last June Dr. W. E. Allen
of the institution found a particular
manifestation of his phenomenon
the water was so red it seemed the
color of blood and became so dense
that it interfered with fishing ac
tivities near the Coronado Islands. It
was estimated that the area of "red
water" was 25 or CO miles long by
10 miles wide.
The phenomenon, it was deter
mined, was caused by the same form
of marine life which was responsible
for wholesale destruction of inshor3
animal life along the Southern Cali
fornia coast in 1901. Earlier in May.
a similar manifestation was noted
off Seaside, Washington, north of
the Columbia river. Here the color
ing was attributed to a Plankton dia
tom which had been previously noted
in northern waters but never before
in such abundance.
Another type of diatom was re
sponsible for a similar coloration off
Copalis Beach, north of Gray's Har
bor, Oregon, the previous day. It
extended some distance out to sea.
RAINMAKERS ASK 125 MILLION
MELBOURNE (UP) A scheme
for providing artificial rain at an
annual cost of $125,000,000 has been
submitted to the Dominion Graziers
Federal Council. The plan is that
2,000 planes should tae up tanks
full of water.
