ORDERS PAVING OF PAlOuSE
FROM ALDER TO MAIN AND
NORTH FOURTH.
Warren Company Gets Contract for
PsIeuse-Property Owners to Say
What They Want In Fourth.

Ignoring the protests of property
owners the city council last night
unanimously ordered the paving Of
Palouse street from Alder to Main
street and North Fourth street from
Rose street to the Fourth street
bridge, a distance Of about a half
block. The paving of Palouse street
was awarded to the Warren Construc-
ton company but property owners in
Fourth street will be given an oppor-
tunity to express their preference for
the kind of pavement wanted.
Eugene Tausick, one of the heaviest
property owners in the latter district
appeared before the council and pro-
tested against awarding the contract to
the Warren people, claiming that a
majority of the property owners
wanted asphalt. Councilman Glasford
at first was opposed to give any further
hanging fire for the past three months
and it was about time the contracts
were awarded. 1t was later decided to
let the property owners decide what
they wanted.
Mr.. Tausick's name appeared on one
of the protests against paving Fourth
street at all, but he said the reason ne
had opposed the improvement was
mainly because he and several other
street bridge placed ION grade. At
present it is some distance above the
street grade. The proposed improve
ment by paving will also involve the
bringing of the bridge to the proper
grade.

How He Saved Frult From Frost.

Within about half a mile from the
center of Weiser, Idaho, is the or
chard and dryer Of Fred A. Coe This
orchard, IA years old, covers 10 acres
and contains LOCO fruit trees, $500
of which arc prunes. Mr.. Coe is
shipping this season from ~ to ~
cars of Italian prunes to Chicago,
Cleveland, New York and other east
ern cities. lie will also send two cars
of Winter Nellis pears and two cars
Of Jonathan apples. Besides this be
will market from seven to eight cars
Of dried prunes.
1t was not luck that saved Mr.. Goes
fine crop Of mutt when the killing
frost of last spring blighted the hopes
of so many other fruit growers. Dur
ing the cool nights Of the spring he
watches the thermometer. As the fall
Of the mercury in the tube becomes
ominous he is making active prepara-
tions to fight the frost. He fights
frost by water, not by fire. At |
o'clock of the morning Of that night
fatal to the fruit prospects Of q host
of growers, Mr.. Coe and five men TN.
der his direction were busy in keep
ing the bitches on each side of his
trees filed with water, and he adds
that they di not care if the ditchcs
overran some, either. lie says others
might just az well have saved their
fruit also by this method.
or course, this frost preventative
applies only to irrigated orchards,
While MI. Coe believes in giving the
orchard plenty of water on frosty
night, he quite agrees with those who
claim that altogether tCO much water
is commonly used in irrigation dur
ing tho season.
All but 30 of the l2O acres of Mr..
Goes orchard are seeded to red Clo-
ger and producing 100 tons Of hay
this season. "There is no such ferti
liZer as growing clover" Gays Mr.. Coe.
According to him an orchard needs
but little else in the way of fertil2-
ing agency. Besides, he adds that an
orchard does not take half as much
water with the clover. Every spring
he disks and harrows the clover.
Mr.. Coe has just received word OF
the sale of a carload of his prunes ut
Cleveland for SLAB, bringing lG cent?
crate more than any others. lie
has also just shipped a carload of
prunes to Montreal, Canada.
