of s2O4o. the alleged value Of the
trees thus destroyed.
The question Of clean orchards and
perfect fruit in this state is involved
In the outcome Of this suit. That the
owners of orchards will not, in many
cases, without compulsion, spray their
fruit trees and destroy those that are
mossy, dirty and useless. is q fact
we'll attested by the infested fruit
that has appeared In this market in
years past and by the moss grown,
pest ridden trees that abound through
out the Willamette Valley. The or
chardist who sprays his trees finds his
crop at the mercy Of his neighbor who
neglects to do no. 1t is manifestly
impossible to e-establish and maintain
the reputation OF Oregon fruit accord
ing to the required market standard.
unless these old orchards are destroyed
and the new ones are sprayed al
proper times. The thrifty citizen
finds spraying his own orchards una.
vailing while the trees OF his neigh
Dor across the way are white with
woody sphis, mottled with San Jose
scale, or a breeding place for the cod
lin moth.
This statement carries its own evi
dence and argument 1t follows thai
Oregon must either abandon its pre-
tentions as state able to raise fruit
as fine as any in the world or TAXI
measures to compel indolent, thriftlesl
orchardists to come up to the STANDARD
set by the Board of Horticulture fol-

Cortelvou Plan Checked.

Postmaster General Cortelyou has
received his first effective check in
his new system of naming post
masters in the termination of the Mil
waukee contest.
Congressman Often, whose district
includes part Of Milwaukee, nominal
ed Wade H. Richardson for postmaster.
Congressman Stafford nominated
William | Greene. With tins dead
lock, Mr.. Cortelyou nominated a per-
sonal friend. David G. Owen, who was
Staffords second choice, but personal
ly offensive to Often.
The president was on the point OF
sending Ovens name to the senate
when Often secured a postponement.
Then the latter, finding it was to be
Greene or Owen, turned to Greene.
This combination of the two congress-
men was successful in preventing the
appointment of Owen, and the pres
ident. according to word received
at Milwaukee, promised to appoint
Greene.
Postmaster General CortelyOu has
in several instances succeeded in
giving appointments to men not parti'
cularly favored by congressman, but
the Milwaukee congressman, by joint
action, seem to have defeated his
system-W.

More strenuous rivalry between
fraternity and non-fraternity men may
be the result Of the organization OF
the Wisconsin University club. The
organization is composed of non.
Greek letter society men and it is
claimed there will be fully 500 ready
to take part in the work Of the or.
ganization. A special pin is being
purchased for the use of the ''barbs"
belonging to this society, and 1t is ex
pected here in few days, when the
lineup of the new organization may
be better known and understood.
It is given out by those who have
been close in the movement for the
organization of the 'barbs" that the
purpose is that some means may be
secured of appealing to the non-fra
ternity men in university affairs. The
fraternity men may be appealed to in
university politics, football, athletics
and for other purposes through their
fraternity. But when call has been
issued for the non-fraternity men
they have not taken it to themselves
In the last few years there has not
been any great rivalry between the
fraternity people and those that are
not members of the secret societies
1t has rather been a rival of fraterni
ties, who in some cases would object
to seeing one fraternity control any
certain branch of athletics Or any
special branch Of student affairs.

MAY PROBE COUNTY AFFAIRS
Rock County Board Hears Serious
Charges Made.


What promises to be a most inter.
esting investigation Of Rock county
affairs is the possible outcome of the
charges made by a representative Of
the Library bureau of Chicago, which
hint at graft in the purchasing OF
supplies for the county. Some time
ago the county built a new vault
for the storage of records, and three
firms entered the competition for the
furnishings of the structure. The re-
preventative of the Library bureau
makes the statement that the bids
were altered after being opened SC
that a Jamestown, N. Y. firm was
favored and this afternoon demanded
hearing before the county board
in which he made serious charges
against Supervisor Simon Smith, for
mer mayor Of Beloit. A letter from
Mr.. Smith in which it was stated that
the committe in charge did not want
bids was shown and also a compare
tive table showing what it has cost
the county for supplies in the past
where no competition was held. II
is possible that an investigation will
be ordered. The question of COMPEL
ing former County Clerk Frank P
Starr making good certain funds ap
propriated to him for clerk hire con.
trary to the law is also, up for con
sideration at the present meeting.

was able to leave my bed and enjoy
my three good meals a day. In two
months my weight increased from 95

alone had brought the change.
