MEDICOS met AND
had Enjoyable TIME:
!saupp Is New Secretary of Society
CuiD to Go as Delegate TO
Seattle Convention.

The medicos had a good time
Tuesday night.
They all got together and talked
about the diseases that distress and
destroy human kind, delved into the
sources OF aches and pains as only
doctors can, and found profession
al joy in the contemplation of ills
and shocks the mere mention of
which sends the lay mind into ner-
vous fits of apprehension that "he
has it."
Among the members of the Chelan
County Medical Society which met
in regular session were Doctors Gill
christ, Blake, Culp. Kaupp, Mccoy,
ling, Saunders, and Elmer of Leav-
enworth.
The society met in the offices of
Doctor Frank Culp, and spent an en-
joyable evening. Considerable busi-
ness was transacted, and Dr. Blake
read paper on Head Aches"
which was received with much inter-
est.
The resignation of DR.. VIM. Nc
Coy as secretary of the society was
accepted, and DR.. A. T. Kaupp was
elected to succeed him. DR.. Frank
Culp was chosen as the delegate OF
the local society to the State Medical
Convention in Seattle, during Che
summer.

EpHRATA BAD MEN
TO pENITIENTARy
Get Six Years Each for Bank Rob-
bery-Judge Steiner Refuses
Plea for Ciemency.
Special to the World.

WATERVILLE, May 1.-THE 4
men, George Hendricks, John Miller,
Louis Spaulding, and John Muff
pleaded guilty Of having robbed the
bank at Ephrata, and Judge Steiner
gave them six years apiece in the
public service at Nalla Walla
1t will be remembered that on the
morning of April 6, one of the most
daring robberies in the annals of
crime in Washington was pulled off
at Ephrata, the desperate bandits
working for over an hour under a
heavy fire from the officers. They
exploded half a dozen charges of
nitroglycerine, wrecked the safe and
building, but obtained only small
sum Of money. They were captured
the next day by cowboys.
Miller and Hendricks wished to
fight the case, but the confessions of
the other two made their attitude
appear ridiculous. A large crowd
attended the trial here, including
many Ephrata people.
Spaulding asked for the clemency
of the court, but Judge Steiner turn
ed a deaf ear.
They Will be taken to Walla Walla
Immediately, there to begin their
long term of penal servitude-six
years.

WORDS OF WISDOM
ARE HANDED TO FARMERS
State College Experts Tell How to Combat
Goblin Moth-Comparative Tests are
Made with Different Sprays

Some criticism was heard yester-
day because so few fruit growers
turned out to the special meeting
at the Commercial club.
This convention had been thor
advertised among the farmers, SO it
seemed unlikely that many had not
learned of it, though their notice
in some cases may have been short.
Excuse was offered for some that
they were too busy to come in. It
much more in valuable instruction
than they gained by staying away
for the sake of a few short hours
more work on their ranches.
Professor Me.ander Speaks.
Professor Melander of State Col
lege, Pullman, was the first to speak.
Speaking generally of spraying he
said
This idea that you must spray
six times a year is all wrong; four
times, if you apply your spray prop
erly. is all your trees require. But
these four applications must be made
at the proper time, and you'll find
they'll do as good as a dozen.
Another thing: Last year, during
our experimental work at Walla
Walla, we tested variety Of meth
ods of spraying. We tested Paris
Green, Arsenate of Lead, and Lon
don Purple" and some other things
that have been used for the Goblin
moth.
We tried Paris Green with and
without Lime. We finally came to
the conclusion that Arsenate of Lead
makes the best spray for use in ex-
terminating the Goblin moth. Paris
Green is good, but Arsenate of Lead
is better

Use Force with Sprays

So If we use a let of force with

directly at the ends Of the young
apple, and be careful TO avoid shoot
ing the sprayer up too high so tnat
only mist settles down from up
above, we can get the pqison right
in where it will do its work. The
way TO tell if you have sprayed sue

This shows the value of spraying.

How to Spray Right.

When the apples have blossomed
and the petals have fallen, there is
still about month before the worms
will crawl into the apple Il is esti-
mated that eight-tenths of the worms
come in though the end of the apple
opposite the stem. 1t is a habit of
the Goblin moth to work around the
apple until it comes to that end
and then go in. So if the poison is
put there, when the worm tries t.,
eat its way in it will bite into the
poison, and get a mouthful, and be
killed.
You see the Goblin moth is only
about one-fftyth of an inch long, and
his mouth is perhaps one-fityth the
length of his whole body, so it don't
take very big particle of the poison
to be enough for him.
We also know that after an apcie
IS set the calyX of the apple closes
up, comes to point like this (illrs.
trating with his closed fngers,, ana
It is absolutely necessary to get ths
poison spray in after this has closcl
up. So the spray must be put on

Various Inferior Sprays.

During orr experimental work We
found many sprays that We're prac-
tically no use at all-they may have
worked all right back in Maine, but
they wouldn't go here in Washing
ton. After working around consid-
orably we hit the Arsenate of Lead,
and you can't go wrong by stick
ing to it. We found that ope pound
of Paris Green to $50 gallons of
water makes pretty good Paris
Green mixture. As regards lot Of
other spray mixtures" We took ssy-
eral OF them, and had Pro. .esSCT
Thatcher analyse them, to find out
just how much arsenate they contain
ed, before We used them at all Pro-
fessor Thetcher analyzed arsenate of
lead and found it about one-thi,I as
strong as Paris Green. One pound
to about forty gallons OF water was
what we found we could use, in ar
senic of lead This work was all
done at our chemical laboratory We
took a solution much weaker than it
said to use on the kegs.

two boxes of apples that he thought
were good out Of 500 that he picked:
and even when the commission men
came to buy his two boxes. they re-
fused them: said they were wormy.
The man had to sell his whole crop
as culls, not having raised a single
good apple.
Well, we took those orchards and
sprayed them four times with Arsen-
ate of Lead. AS a result when We
came to count up that mans f--uit
in the fall, he had twenty-five trees
there that had over twenty-five
boxes OF fruit on every one Of them.

Give the Chef a Chance.

1t is my belief that the man who has
dined In the best Partisan restaurants
without finding them wonderful, says
Julian Street, is either a dyspeptic or
self reliant ignoramus who did not
give the chef a chance. You know the
story Of the miner who, having struck
1t rich," arrived In New York and
anxious to do it right" went to Del
monico's for dinner. After studying
the menu with growing despair he
turned to patient waiter with, Just

known them to go to famous restau-
rants and order, plain broiled chicken
or steak and fried potatoes, dishes SO
elemental that the greatest chef could
hardly cook them better than Maggie
In the fat at home could do 1t. A
Partisan chef broiling a chicken makes
a pathetic figure. The asking him to
do SO is like requesting learned pro-
fessor Of higher mathematics to add a

Crocodiles of Old,

He eats honey. The crocodile runneth
away from man If he wink with his

with his right eye. He carries water
In his mouth to make the roads slip
perry and so catches people alive. There
is an amity and natural concord be-
tween swine and crocodiles and much
more of the same kind. Herodotus' lit
tie plover, which walks into the croco
dile's mouth and picks off the leeches,
is changed by Bartholomew into fish,
with crests like saws, and fowl and a
serpent, all of which walk about inside
the crocodile's stomach as If 1t were q

ITS ONLY MISS PETIT, HE GRowLED.
came to her each Saturday was little
enough without INDUCING the luxury
Of an afternoon off.
Jimmy Nelson, coming into the room
to consult with Miss Petit about an
order, looked with kindly sympathy at
the tired girl. When he had had
charge of the room, he had been more
gentle. She had told him something
Of her story in the noon intervals,
when he had insisted upon standing
treat to hot coffee to augment the scan
ty sandwich that usually constituted
her lunch. Coffee costs cents a day,
and the errand girl who made the trips
to the lunch room must be tipped in ad-
dition. The Rotary Addressing conf
pany paid only from So to So week
and coffee was luxury to those who
did not live at home.
There had been a time when Jimmy
had dreamed of little fat wherein
Nell should be mistress. That was just
after he had been promoted to the Of
fee and had had his salary raised to
$15 a week. He had lacked the cour
age to make his proposal In person and
had written her a note.

Once Jimmy had aspired to the stage.
and he had obtained the phrase from
the advertisements In the dramatic pa.
pers that he studied with religious
care. 1t had struck him as being q
phrase Of singular elegance. She need
not refuse him. She could just ignore
the note. He was sorry afterward
that he had not asked for an answer.
1t would have been something to keep.
AS II was, she was as pleasant as ever
to him, treating him with the same
old friendliness and giving no hint Of
her reason for the refusal Of his offer.
He longed to repeat it. He wanted
to be able to take her out of the place.

tit, yet he lacked the courage to speak
and he contented himself with coming
into the room as often as his business
with the forewoman gave him an ex-
cuse. OF course 1t would never do fo-
the Office force to chum with the girls
from the operating room during the
noon hour, and in the evening it was
Jimmy's duty TO see that all were out
before he locked up.
So Nell struggled on. Just so many
thousand envelopes must be completed
to constitute minimum days work.
A record was made each evening and
the advancement or reduction of sal
airy depended upon that. She had
barely managed to complete the task

WAGONS IN AMERICA.

turtles Ago In Mexico.


To its northerly neighbors Mexico
seems land of contradiction. 1t was
exploited by the Spanish conquerors
q hundred years before the pilgrims
landed at Plymouth Rock, and yet the
American from the United States finds
it comparatively primitive and I'M
developed country. In some respects
it has gone back, losing the splendor
of its early times, yet it is land now
stirring with youth and growth.
The carriage of goods affords an in
stance Of these paradoXical conditions,
for in Mexico, the first soil of the new
world to be travelled by wheels, bur-
dens are today largely borne on hui
man backs. Says the New York Post:
There was never a wheel turned on
the western hemisphere until about the
year 1923 or 1924, when Sebastian de
Aparicio brought some OK carts over
from Spain and began hauling freight
and passengers between Vera Cruz and
the City Of Mexico. He grew wealthy,
moved to Puebla, became lay broth
er of the Franciscans and died full Of
years, piety and honors in 1000, nine
ty-eight years of age. He was canon
lied by the pope and later was adopt
ed as patron saint of Puebla.

(water carrier) are still omnipresent.
The size of their self imposed bur-
dens compels notice from the least OBJ

For a moment Nell's hand faltered.
The pounding Of the machines and the
endless click of the shifting stencils
seemed to pierce her very brain. She
cast a quick glance down the long
workroom of the Rotary Addressing
company.
Out through the windows at the other
end could be seen patch of blue sky,
blurred now and then by a puff of
steam from the pipes of the adjoining
building; modest seven story struc-
ture. Here and there some building
larger than their own reared its head
to cut the skyline, and through the
open window there came occasionally
sounds from the street below, sharp
notes in the monotone Of the machines.
Within, long rows of girls leaned
over their work, their deft fingers fore
Ing envelopes into the hungry maws
of the machines with only pause now
and then when fresh stack Of stem
ellis were needed. Between the aisles
paced the sharp eyed forewoman. A
man had been in charge of the room
once, but the firm had found that he
was too easy, too commiserate of the
women under his supervision, and they
had moved him into the Office, sending
In his stead the angular Miss Petit,
who forced the girls in her charge to
the limit Of their endeavors. Her sharp
eye detected Nell's pause.
"Burrowes," she called acidly. She
never wasted time on Miss" "If you
