CRANES FATHER
REAL ANGRY

(By United Press Leased wire.)
CHICAGO. Oct. 14.-Richard
t. Crane. father of the deposed
minister to China, this afternoon
openly charged that his sons en-
forced resignation was the result
of a political plot.
Knox is behind it. of course"
he said, land he knows why IL was
done and what 1t means. But 1
don't see how the president can
lcountenance 1t. The Chinese situ-
alton is ticklish. One would inn
agine that the state department
would spend hours discussing 1t
with a man being sent there as
minister. Yet my son was not ins
structed by the department"

WALLA WALLA, Oct. a.
Inefficiency in the handling of an
X-ray machine by DR.. ]. w. Steele,
of Waitsburg, resulted in a sore
on the leg of Smith Hunt, which
took one month to heal, accord
ing to the complaint filed in SUI
perior court today, and in which
Hunt asks $500 damages. Hunt
claims he wished his leg exam
lined because of hip trouble and
that the X-ray, instead of reveal
ing the difficulty, became crossed
and severely burned him.

Tho Value Of imagination as an Indus
trial Asset.
Let us assume that tomorrow you
decide to embark In the business of
manufacturing a toilet soap to COM
peha with some Of the well known max
ers. 1t is important that it should
have a significant or attractive name.
But, right at the outset, you discover
that It is almost impossible to secure
any satisfactory name for a new soap.
Its color, transparency and clearness
suggest the title Of amber soap"
Yes, surely, amber soap" does have an
attractive sound. But you cannot use
the word amber" for you find that
this is one of a list Of twenty-four pos
sible names for toilet soap pre-
empted by registration as a protec-
tt0Dary measure years ago by one Of
the leading American soap makers.
They have covered over a hundred
names in the past quarter Of a century,
willingly paying the registration
charges of $25 for every title OF
course they do not intend to use them.
They register them to fight off compe
fition, believing land here is the i'm
portant point that no clever business
man would embark in the enterprise
OF manufacturing new soap when
from the start he was prevented from
employing the powerful weapon Of
imagination in giving 1t a suitable
name. If an establishment like this,
directed by some Of the ablest heads in
the business world, believes that 1t
can discourage competition by simply
depriving the would be competitor Of
the appeal to the imagination in the
naming of his soap. how great a value
must we attach to Imagination in bust
ness?-Lorin T. Deland in Atlantic

TRAPPING RABBITS.
The Australian Method of Dealing With
the Pests.

The Australian Method of Dealing With
the Pests.
Rabbits are the greatest pest the
Australian pastoralist has to contend
against, If these rodents are at all
numerous on a station property, they
do enormous damage 10 the grass, but
the pest is kept down to the lowest
possible limit in every district Of the
commonwealth at great cost.
The most effective method Of deal
ing with them is hereunder explained.
In summer when any water that
might have been lying about has been
dried up by evaporation and the grass
has become dry rabbits swarm toward
the tanks, dams or other water holes
that have been sunk for stock drink
ing purposes.
Pastoralists take advantage of this,
and every evening after the cattle
have partaken of their last drink a
strip Of wire netting is run around the
tank or dam.
Outside this netting fence holes are
dug in the ground and filed with poi
soned water, and these in turn are in
closed by another strand Of netting,
pegged down to within a few inches
OF the ground, being sheep proof, but
allowing plenty Of room for rabbits to
get under.
The rabbits make for the dam; but,
as their way is barred, they drink at
the poisoned holes, with to them disas-
trOus results.
In the morning are to be seen hun
dreds and thousands Of dead rabbits
scattered about the country. - Mel
