Orange, Va., July 27. President

shade of his mountain camp as he
whiled away the hours chatting with
friends and considering plans for
the western trip he intends to take
next month.
It was a day of almost complete In
activity to the president and his

hail edged upward to the mountain
retreat and the presidential party
sought relief in the shade.
The president went over plans
which have been presented for his
summer vacation in the west, but no
decision was announced. It was un
derstood he would decide upon a de
finite schedule this week.
A walk to the top of a hill near
the camp with Mrs. Hoover was the
only activity engaged in by the presi

and Mrs. Hoover obtained a pano
ramic view of the surrounding coun
try. They saw a number of small
forest fires scattered about in the
distance.

rain. The drought also had lowered
the supply of water In the reservoir
and the president's party were care
ful not to waste any of it.
Six of the guests braved the heat
for a short while to take a horseback
ride. They were Senator Baird (N
J.), three District of Columbia com
missioners. Dr. Joel T. Boone, th
White house physician, and Lawrence
Richey, one of the president's secro
taries. World-Herald.

Washington, July 28. Discour
aging reports of the effects of the con
tinued drouth in the grain belt reach
ed the farm board today as Chairman
Legge laid plans for a trip he and
Secretary Hyde are to make htrough

"We are getting some relief of the

Legge said. "I have a feeling tV is
the worst drouth we have had JO
years.
Questioned regarding recent rec m-
mendations of the department of agri
culture that wheat could be used to
advantage as live stock feed in some
sections due to the prevailing prices
of wheat and corn, the chairman said
it would have some beneficial effect.
He added, however, that it 13 "not
something to contemplate for steady
procedure."
Beginning August 1 at Indianap
olis, plans have been made for the
secretary and chairman to carry th-?ir
acreage reduction program Into the
soft winter wheat belt. The two will
confer with extension directors and
specialists from Indiana, Illinois,
Michigan and other states affected.
Saturday, and possibly Monday,
the chairman will confer with wheat
and live stock co-operative officials
at Chicago.
Swinging west with Secretary
Hyde, the chairman will visit Mon
tana, Washington, Oregon, Idaho
and probably other states. Dairy and
live stock problems will be discussed,
