ASKS SECRETARY WILSON
TO JOIN PEST FIGHT
State Board of Trade Sends
Communication Regarding
War on ThripS Insect

The state board of trade has again
urged Secretary of Agriculture James
Wilson to place another expert from
the bureau of entomology in a new
district in this state TO carry on the
investigation simultaneously with the
work now going on in the Santa Clara
valley respecting the ravages of the
thrips pest. In the latter part of June
communication was addressed to the
secretary, requesting him to add to the
force now at work.
To this letter Wilson replied that the
last congress did not increase the ap-
preparations sufficiently to permit the
employment of more experts, and stat
ed that the funds appropriated would
provide for power sprayer and an IN
crease of the necessary equipment for
the thrips work.
The state board replied to this
letter stating that it had been
advised that thrips have been dis
covered on tomato vines in Ala
media county and fear was ex-
pressed that the pest would increase
so as to include vegetables as we'll as
fruits. 1t is believed that the condi-
tions in Santa Clara county and other
districts may vary, and that. with the
assistance of another expert, a com
parison might be made which would
develop new lines of work to the ma
terial benefit of fruit growers.

TREASURER SHORT
$4,000 IN funds
Carpenters District Council
Learns Considerable Sum
Is Missing
No Action Has Been Determined
Upon Regarding Long
Trusted Officer

The district council of carpenters is
minus more than $4,000 through ].
Hood, for many years its treasurer
What he did with the money has not
yet been explained, but it appeared
from a report presented to the coun-
Gil at its meeting last Wednesday
night that he is short in his accounts.
The report was incomplete and was
returned to the auditing committee
composed of c. Clark, Charles A Mel
son and A. L. Hollis, which, with the
finance committee. was instructed to
present q full report at the next meet
ing.
Hood is married and has family.
He had been thought so much of that
he never had any opposition after his
first election. He was in consultation
with c. L. Dam, attorney for the state
building trades council, Thursday, and
stated that the council will not be at a
loss, as he has means which will enable
him to make good the shortage.
The money was partly assessments
for the strike fund, which should have
been returned to the unions, as it came
in after assessments were called off.
President Mccarthy of the building
trades council said yesterday that the
shortage was still under investigation
and that no course as to what would
be done IN the matter had been deter
mined He said that some one had cir
culated the report that it was through
his influence that Hood had been elect
ed treasurer.
THE man." Mccarthy said, "was
elected while out of the city and is
one who does not belong to the organ
ization of which 1 am a national Off
Ger and to whom I never spoke before
he was elected. 1t is true that he is
under only a $500 bond, but the council
was satisfied with that amount. l tried
to have the system that is in vogue in
the national body adopted here, but it
was rejected as being too cumber-
some"
Hood has been deposed and w. A.
Cole of carpenters union No. 1910 has
been elected in his place.

SIRENS SIGNAL
FLEET MAN[UVERS
Pilots Marvel at Ease Atlantic
Fleet Is Handled in Dense
Fog Outside Heads
Steam Whistles Give Orders in
ImprOmptu Drill on De-
parture of Battlesf1ips

On the occasion of the departure
last Tuesday of the Atlantic fleet the
officers in charge of the battleships
gave an exhibition Of seamanship that
aroused the admiration of the sole
civilian witnesses, the men on the pilot
boats, and which would have satisfied
even Captain Bolles that handling 16
big ships as one is something of a
feat after all. The feet left its anchor
age with pilot on each of the four
hagshipS. These pilots were to be
dropped after the bar had been crossed,
and three pilot schooners were waitin g
outside to receive them.
Outside the heads the fleet ran into
fog bank. The fog was so thick that
vision was limited to less than the
length of a battleship.
At cough of the Connecticut's s
siren every ship in the three mile line
slackened speed A sneeze from the
flagship brought the ships to a stand
still Meanwhile the pilot schooners
were winging their way in and out
among the big ships in search of the
ones that carried pilots. While the
pilot boats searched the battleships
coughed and sneezed and howled and
shrieked. AS Pilot Castle went over
the side of the Connecticut the flag
ships said to the rest of the fleet, in
siren language: I've shed my pilot,
and when you other buIl1eS have done
the same We'll resume that cruise"
The Louisiana snorted out the in
formation that Pilot Christensen had
been safely dropped into the Lady
Mines dingy. With a groan of relief
the Georgia announced that Pilot An
dersOn was on his way. Then came a
toot, toOt from the Wisconsin as Pilot
Johnson took his departure, and Ad-
miral Sperry knew that all the pilots
had been safely discharged
The Connecticuts siren then said:
Meow WOW hee- haw- -hee- -hawr
This meant, Follow the leader at a
10 knot gait" and also told the dlrec-
| tion that the 10 ships were to steer.
Bet they're all muddled up" re-
marked one of the pilots to a shipmate
From where they stood in the Amer
| ica's cockpit they could just dis
tinguish the outline of the Connecticut.
One by one the ships went by. The
men on the pilot boat could see only
one battleship at a time. but as they
watched they realized that, while wait
ing in the fog, each ship had held its
position in the long line, and that when
the fleet made that new start in the
fog bank the formation was perfect
as during the passage down the sunlit
bay. And, as one pilot said:
They done it all with their sirens
And their heads" volunteered
another
