Of PORK
REDUCED
LOCAL BUTCHERS GET BACK TO
OLD SCALE PRIOR TO THE AD-
VANCE OF SOME TWO MONTHS
AGO.

The price of pork was reduced by
the local butchers from 171a and 20
cents to Is cents for roasts and II ~
cents for loin chops. Some two
months ago, on account of the scare
ity of pork and the high price. 9
cents. which the local butchers had
to pay for it, there was a slight raise
but yesterday the price went back
to the old schedule. Seven and one
half cents is being paid now for live
weight and 9 cents for dressed pork
and the supply is seemingly adequate
for the local demand.
The price of beef live weight runs
from cents to 4 cents. There has
been no change in the retail price of
beef. 1t did not. advance at the time
pork advanced and there is no change
at this time.

Given a 500 Fine.

Chris Johnson, the young man
who sought to introduce Leaven-
worth intoxicants into this city last
Saturday, was arraigned before
Judge Palmer yesterday afternoon.
He pleaded guilty and was given a
100 fine or 33 days in the county
jail. Not having the 500 he was
obliged to serve out his time in the
county jail. Johnson, who is one of
the striking concrete mixers em-
rloyed by Downey & Bethel, made a
trip to Leavenworth and brought
with him a considerable amount of
liquor. He was arrested by the
police officers and will serve time for
his indiscretion.
Thomas Parker, who was arrested
with him, was given $40 fine.

WARM BREAKFASTS REFUSED
BY JAILED ORATORS in SPO-
WITH THE FOOD.

Spokane, Nov. 9.-Fifty street
speakers of the /. W. w. continued
today to ignore their nice warm
breakfasts of bacon, potatoes and
potatoes and bread and assert they
will continue the starvation diet until
the so convicted enthusiasts are given
the same food. Some claim they have
touched no food since Thursday night
last and say they will die of starva-
ton before they will touch prison fare
under the present conditions, but the
warm breakfasts served the five lead
ers of the /. W. w. disappeared mys-
teriously, though the leaders would
not explain where the food went.
The sensation of the l. w. w.

of Miss Fair appeared, as she was
leaving the courtroom, to be rather
faint, so her companions brought a
stretcher and laid her out.
In this style they marched through
the principal streets followed by a
dozen I. w. WIS and a crowd of Curl
Gus, among them many boys. On the
trip to Miss Fairs rooms there was
no attempt to make speecnes.
Three demonstrations during the
day brought 80 or more martyrs"
most of them aliens, to the police

asked by the desk officer how long

in the United States and whether they
are naturalized citizens. The percent
age of aliens yesterday was larger
than ever before, the names of these
being taken with a view to deporta-
tion by the federal authorities. One
of the later prisoners, Joe Smith,

benefit for years to come, to say
nothing of placing the district prom

SPRAY FRUIT WELL
NEXT YEAR
ARE READY TO DO
THEIR BEST WORK AGAINST
SPECTOR.

Fruit men will do the most effect
i've spraying possible next year, ac-
cording to Fruit Inspector Clarence
Starcher, says the Yakima Republic.
This year has been lesson to them,
he says. They have been let down
so hard this year that next year they
will use their best efforts to fight the
worms
1t appears that last spring when
they saw that they would have a
small crop, many of the growers
sprayed scantily or not at all, with
the result that this fall they are los
ing a good many boxes of apples.
And every box of apples they lose
means the loss of a good deal of
money
Spraying Seemed a Waste.
Early last spring, at the budding
and blossoming time, it became ap-
parent that the apple crop would be
very short.
The blossoms were scattered wide
ly apart over the trees" said Mr..
Starcher this morning, "ani to the
man who sprayed thoroughly so as
to reach them all, it seemed that he
was wasting good deal of spray.
So many growers did not spray we'll.
There is a man up in the Ahtanum
who told me a third of his apples
were wormy
How many times did you spray?'
asked him.
"T didn't spray at all, he said
Farmers Now Feel Loss.
Now they feel the loss of each
box of apples. told them last spring
that every box of apples this fall
would be worth as much as two boxes
last fall. Now find that in a good
many instances one box is worth as
much as three were then.
There were some up-to-date men
that did not spray thoroughly, but
think they will after this.
Some people have claimed that
the sprays were not good, that the
chemicals were not strong enough to
kill the pests. l don't know anything
about that. I have not seen any
analysis made.
Worm Crop Only Normal.
Yes, I believe it is true that the
| worms show up principally on ac-
count of the shortness of the crop
| While the proportion of worms is
large, I believe the actual worm crop
is normal. Fifty per cent wormy ap-
piles in 25 per cent crop, you see
would be only 121z per cent OF
worms in a normal crop. Fifteen
per cent of worms in a 10 per cent
crop-that is the way my crop is
would be only very small proper.
tion of worms, only l n per cent.
cat the same time, I believe the
orchards are pretty we'll seeded down
to worms for next year, but l believe
the growers will be ready to fight
them hard I think they have learned
a lesson.
Should Use Power Spray.
II think it has come to the point
now that grower, to be successful
must use the best methods at his
command; that is, he should have
the best kind of power spray.
''The calyx spray is the most i'm.
portant. 1t has been demonstrated
that from rs to 80 per cent of the
worms that first attack the apple at.
tempt to enter it from the calyx end
so that If this is thoroughly poisoned
the second brood of worms will be
tvery light. 1t has also been noticed
that in orchards which were moi
sprayed at all the largest proportion
Of apples were calyx wormy."
