plications for room. 1t is hoped that
some means may be found in the near
future to enlarge the capacity Of this
valuable adjunct to the school.
1t is customary for the ladies of
the dormitory to give an annual re-
ception 10 the women of the faculty
and the women students. In spite of
the fact that boys are not invited,
they are not missed at the reception,
for they are cleverly impersonated
b. the girls. This year everyone APP
peared CARRIED out of harmony with
her natural element. An interesting
program was rendered by male CD
quartet, by six girls dressed in
Mother Goose costumes, by two jig
dancers wonderfully attired in vaude-

fere with the regular school duties.
They are spasmodic in nature and
therefore never continue long at a
time. This year the seniors came
out" first. They gave their class yells,
which indeed showed a surplus of
class spirit. After their yells the
senior class president presented the
bunch of carnations. The juniors
hoped to be the next to come out,
the lively members of the fourth year
class, who never allow the grass to
grow under their feet, spoiled every
thing. so that the junior coming
OUT never reached further than the
hanging out of their banner, and the
fourth years had the liveliest com
ing-out' ever known in the history
of the normal school.

the students were entertained by Mr..
Heath with several vocal selections.

APPLE STORAGE EXPERIMENTS

Washington apple growers and
shippers will be interested in the
outcome of extensive experiments
that are to be conducted during the
next twelve months by the Iowa Ag-
ricultural Experiment 1tation for
the purpose of learning the best
methods Of keeping aprles in COLI
storage. The experiments W.
made with all the important Varl'I
of apples and Will show the varying
results obtained with fruit from
trees of different ages, growing on
different soils, cultivated and uncu-
tiyated, and picked at different
stages Of maturity. 1t is also in
tended to ascertain whether apples
will keep best in small barrels or
large, wrapped or unwrapped, and
what advantage, II any, early storage
has over late storage. These expert
ments will require considerable at
tention and consequent expense. The
results will not be entirely applicable
as a guide to Warrington growers
and packers, perhaps, for we have
here q different climate and different
class Of fruit. Still, the factseglean-
ed by the Iowa Station should be of
some aid to the Evergreen state hor
ticultulists
Yakima valley may take the lead
in experiments along this line in
Washington, for the work has been
already begun w l.. Wright, the vet
eran fruit man, has made num-
Der of observations, picking the
same variety ut different times and
noting the condition of the apples
after being in cold storage stated
time Others have at times gone
into the proposition in a way. One
commission merchant put a
quantity of apples in cold storage
that had been picked two weeks, and
at the same time similar guam
tity of the same variety freshly pick
ed The loss in the first case was
about s per cent and the latter less
than l per cent
The results Of the experiments so
far made lead to the conclusion that
to generalize on the different vari-
ties observed, a weeks delay after
the fruit is picked before placing in
cold storage shortens the life of the
apple about thirty days, and even
more in the case of the more delicate
varities, such as the Spitzenberg,
Jonathan, Gano and others of this
class.
North Yakima is the logical place
for conducting extensive experiments
along these lines being pursued in
the Investigations in Iowa, and the
state agricultural college experts,
if they will devote the time to the
work here, may accomplish results
that will be of inestimable value to
the state for all time to come. The
Yakima valley has everything essen
tial to thorough investigation and ex-
periments along this line the differ
eat varieties of apples, the favorable
picking time. large and well ap-
pointed cold storage plant the soil
and the climate and everything else
that is needed. Let he experiments
be made. and let the work be done
at Yakima, and the whole northwest
will benefit.

Novel Method Used to Bring Eggs to

An Arkansas grocer instituted
what he termed farmers egg con-
test. For 80 days the number of
eggs brought in was recorded and a
duplicate record given the farmer
At the end of the time the amounts
were totaled and the prizes given
those bringing in the greatest num-
Der. Doubtless eggs were scarce and
the grocer found he could dispose
of all he could secure and still leave
some of the demand unsatisfied. The
plan succeeded, and there was a
great deal of interest manifested
among the farmers, who are still
looking into the matter of poultry
culture in that part of the state.
