The following points should be kept
in MIND when sorting apples for stor-
age: U) Only the better grades
should be stored. 90 They should be
stored as soon as possible after pick
ing go Only hard ripe" fruit will
keep well in cold storage. i4) A uni
form temperature of 81 to 50 degrees
f. is best. 90 They should be put on
the market as soon as they reach their
highest maturity or before. A mid
winter variety is best marketed in mid
winter. CO. Apples with color do not,
as a rule, scald as readily as other
kinds. The Mammoth Black Twig is
an important exception. CD The quail
ity of the fruit is maintained better in
storage when the fruit is wrapped.

The irrigation of land dates back to
the time of Egypt, yet 10 hear some
people talk about irrigation in the
West one would think it an entirely
new thing. Nevertheless it's no gold
Uon that calls for little careful
tf1ught.

1t is a mistaken idea to think that
persons have the idea that because
their houses are cold in the morning
that the air is fresh, while the very OPP
posite may be true if the windows have
been closed during the night. This
same doctrine applies tc stables where
stock is kept. Cold air is not necessa-
rily purer than warm, Initiated air.

U. S. SHOULD KEEP HANDS OFF.

To the man on the outside, it does
not look as though it would be the
best policy for the United States to act
as mediator between Japan and China
IN the dispte over the seizure of Jap
anese vessel bearing arms for Chinese
revolutionists. The late unpleasant
ness between this country and Japan
over the immigration and Pacific coast
school questions besides the undoubt-
ed hostility of great part of the Jap
anese empire towards the United States
on account Of the part 1t played in
bringing about peace between Japan
and Russia, without the latter having
to pay a humiliating indemnity, are
sufficient reasons why this country
should not now be called upon to act
AZ mediator in any case in which Japan
IS involved. Not that we as a nation
fear the Japanese empire should any
such case be decided against 1t, but
because the later action and sentiment
OF the Japanese people in holding our
government to account for bringing
about peace between the two warning
nations without the payment of an in
demnity is more or less of an insult
and shows lack of confidence on
their part in our fair mindedness and
impartiality. For these reasons alone
we believe it would be more consist
ent with the dignity of our country If
it would decline to act in any capacity
with regard to relations between ia
pan and other countries.

Notes of the World of Labor

Since the strong campaign against
child labor was started in 1906, legisla-
ton for the protection of children or
for compulsory education has been
passed in seventeen states Of the union.
Minneapolis, Mimi, has become
headquarters for the employment of
structural iron workers, and hundreds
OF men are sent out each year to all
parts Of the United States and Can
ada.
In the English town of Redditch
about 5000 men and women earn com
Portable wages as needle makers.
They put about fifty hours week in
model factories. Redditch's yearly
output Of needles is in excess of 2,OOO,-

The motor-omnibus strike in Lon.
don, England, ended recently. The
collapse was due to the fact that the
strike pay, which the men declared
was promised, did not amount to near
~ so much as they were led to be-
lieve.

Washington, March 7-Ambassador
Creel, from Mexico, has made a most
favorable impression in Washington
on account of his statesmanlike abil-
ity. He is thoroughly in earnest in
which is made in the direction Of uni
versal peace and especially for happy
relations between the Republic OF
Mexico. the United States and the five
Republics of Central America.
At d luncheon recently attended by
all the delegates to the conference Of
the organization known as The Fed
GRAFTON of Central America, Mr..
Buchanan, the American delegate, told
that in the city of Buffalo they had
organized what they call an ''anniver-
sary club" which would furnish oc-
casion for the frequent meeting of con
genial persons to discuss various i'm
portant subjects in the line of har-
mony and good will among all peoples.
Ambassador Creel took advantage OF
this suggestion to propose that the
Anniversary" idea be adopted and in
stituted all over the country, the OBJ
ject Of which should be the Keeping
before the people continuously the
idea of peace in Central America and
other republics.

The provisions stipulated are that
the five republics be pledged that they
will not aid any movement which is
undertaken to establish a government
by force, but that the government of
each republic shall emanate from the
people through the regularly elected
legislature and authority given by the
people.
Adherence to this pledge would GER
tainly result in the encouragement of
revolutionists, who have through the
leadership Of individuals, brought
great disaster and hardship upon the
people. If they can be educated up to
the point Of recognizing one govern
ment that was established through the
will of the people, we shall hear less
Of outbreaks and terrorism, growing
out of the ambitions and recklessness
of some .self-appOinted leader.
If regular government could be
maintained in each Of the republics,
they would in time >be united in one
great republic, and the five small ones
would bear the same relation to the
United States bear to the American
Union, and would secure for Central
America power and importance that
can never be obtained otherwise.
1t is a grand thought that many of
the citizens Of Central America are
becoming educated up to the point of
approaching that through unity is
bound to come greater strength and

the potency OF peace.
The idea of United States OF Cen
trail America is not new one by any
means. Statesmen have had the sub
ject under discussion for number OF
years-not with the idea of urging that
the union be established, but with an
aim of keeping track of all political
events by specializing on the future
and preparing in advance through the
study of evolution.
1t will likely require many years for
the republics of Central America to
get together. Sentiment is rather eX-
plosive in the hot countries, and trOu-
BILE is not long in brewing.
Jealousy is a characteristic OF the Lat
in-American republics and hangs like a
milestone about the neckS of the
whole-hearted men who are devoting
their lives to strengthening and i'm
proving their governments.
There are many who believe that
the United States of Central America
was near realization more than one
time, but the movement was side
tracked by ambitious politicians and
jealous statesmen. Then again, there
are great business interests holding
valuable concessions in the various
countries, which were obtained more
in the nature of royal grant than rs
a reward for any benefit they might
have been able to bring to the gov
eminent.
