Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO, March 26.--John Farson,
banker and "Bathhouse" John Cough
lin, alderman, have taken up the More
Color crusade for men. The news that
tailors will insist upon rainbow colors
for men was received by the Bath
house" without any alarm.
That's gettin' near the real thinG,"
he declared. But them tailors needn't
think they have got anything new.
Didn't 1 wear my green dress suit at
Atlantic City? Now, there's no deny
ing that gents clothes is too plain
nowadays, but these dogs head but
tons, carved on gold, or the w gold
pieces for buttons, certainly would help
some.
Might be pretty expensive to wear
them at the county Democracy dance,
though. Each gent as did would need
a plain clothes man along, sure. You
see, with buttons like them, you
couldn't tell then whether the dress
suit was owned or rented. A second
hand clothes man in West Madison or
Halstead streets would be too wise to
let a suit with real money hanging to
it for the price of a weeks rent"
Mr. Farson, long the advocate of red
neckties, also declared for the gray
evening suit suggested by the dress
reformers.

COUNCIL ACCEPTS
NEW |NC|NERATOR
FIRST PAYMENT OF S20,864 IS
ORDERED PAID
Plant Easily Disposes Of One Hundred
Tons of Garbage a Day-Full
Capacity Is Two Hum
dred Tons

The new Decarie incinerator, which
has been in course of construction since
last summer, was yesterday accepted
by the city council and the first pay
ment of $20,S64 ordered paid to the
manufacturers. The entire cost of the
plant will be a little more than $4,000.
When the question of accepting the
incinerator came up before the council
yesterday afternoon, C. d. Willard, sec
retary of the Municipal league, stated
that his organization had had man
present every time the new plant has
been tested during the last sixty days
and he was convinced the garbage ere
matory was all right in every respect
and could be operated for the amount
set down In the contract.
The plant has a capacity of 200 tons
of garbage a day, although it is not
called on to dispose of more than half
that amount at the present time.
1t will completely consume dead
horse in fifty minutes and the repre-
sentative of the Decarie company, who
appeared before the council yesterday
afternoon, strongly recommended that
this course be insisted on in disposing
of dead ANIMALS that had been destroyed
by such contagious disease as glanders.
The practice of converting infected car
casses into soap grease, he stated, was
a prolific source of disease.

CIInker Question Looms Up

When the question of whether or not
the incinerator would make good clink-
er arose, it was argued that clinker is
of no use in this country and is not
worth the cost of handling. The incin-
orator is for combustible material only
and combustible material will not make
clinker
The ordinance requiring combustible
garbage to be kept separate from non
combustible material, such as discarded
tin cans, pans and other articles of a
similar nature which housewives have a
habit of throwing in their garbage
cans, will be rigidly enforced. The
board of public works has made ar
rangements with one team in each
ward, of the outfits belonging to the
street department, to be used one day
each week for the sole purpose of col
lecting these old cans, bottles and other
non n-combustible refuse.

STORM MAY INJURE
THE APRICOT CROP
FRUIT GROWERS OF VENTURA so
PREDICT
Nearly 10000 Acres of Sugar Beets
Contracted For-Large Bean Crop
Assured - Orange Crop Proving
Satisfactory
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
VENTURA, March 26.-Fruit grow
ers fear the recent wet spell, which
lasted five days, has seriously injured
the apricot crop. N. B. Smith of the
avenue, who is an old fruit grower and
authority upon such subjects, stated
yesterday that at least one-fourth of
the crop was ruined.
He attributes the loss to the fact
that the young fruit was just setting
and that many of the dead blossoms
were still clinging to the little apricots.
The continued warm and damp weather
has caused the fruit to rot. In most of
places the prospect was fine, as the
trees were very full of blossoms and
there is still a possibility that the thin
ming of the fruit may prove beneficial
to the extent that the increase in size
will balance the loss in quantity.
Beans and 5eets Plentiful
The bean and beet crop of the county
will be very large. Nearly 10000 acres
of sugar beets are contracted for and
the young plants are looking fine.
Hay will also be IA big crop, but a
rank growth is expected.
The orange crop of the Ojai valley is
turning out in good shape and the price
is far in advance of last season. Grow
ers are receiving $1.50 per box, deliv-
cred at the warehouse. The prevailing
price last year was $1.0O per box. The
association has a new warehouse ar
Nordhoff and shipping is being done on
the railroad, whereas heretofore the
bulk of the crop was hauled to this
city by team.
u. B. Williams, rural mail carrier of
Santa Paula, had narrow escape dur
ing the recent storm. He attempted to
cross the creek in the Elesio canyon,
when his wagon was washed down
stream. Williams jumped and at last
caught in some willows. The horse
broke loose and swan to shore
The wagon was completely demolished
and the mail pouch was also lost. For
tunately Williams had the registered
mail in his pocket, which was saved. A
subscription amounting to $93 was
raised for the purpose Of buying a new
wagon.
