Henshaw, 1t is stated, formerly had

"ONE SPRAY" IDEA KILLED
Plan Was Followed I'm North Yakima
Last Year to the Benefit of the
Vinegar Makers.

Daylight has been let through the
lone spray" theory for treatment of
the codling moth. This theory was
followed by large number of ranch
ers last season and the result was ex-
cellent conditions for the vinegar ma
ker as he had his choice of a much
larger crop Of fruit than would have
been the case otherwise. When the
one spray idea was first advanced in
North Yakima at a public meeting at
the Commercial club it met with the
ouspoken opposition of large num-
Der of the expert fruit growers. Since
then the facts as presented bv the ad-
herents of the zone spray" idea and
those who sprayed frequently have
shown that there is safety and money
in spraying plentifully.
Expert Knifcs Idea.
Prof. Tumble of the state college,
speaking at the Chelan County Horti-
cultural meeting, officially condemned
the one spray. He said that last year
he took contract to rid the Walla
Walla valley of codling moth. He con-
Quoted some experiments that tend to
strongly diSprove the one spray theory
with Tho exceptions of certain in
is clean from worms, for a year or
so. or when climatic conditions are
unfavorahle to the cooling moth; in
young orchardists in new counties; or
in especial regions of fruit growing
districts where the moth is not bad;
and even where the first spraying is
perfectly done, in some instances, the
one spraying plan can be folloWe ,
successfully in some seasons, but I'M
der the general conditions that eXsi
in this state at the present time the
following figures will show conclu-
sively that one spraying is necessary
% insure good results.
Dates of Experiments.
The experiments were made from
May 1 to May 10 for the first spray
ing; on Nav 20 for the second; July
90 for the third, and August rs for
the fourth

In every case there were no apples
wormy at the calyx end. This proves
that the first spraying in every in
stance was perfect; that it did all
that any first spraying could do. Yet
the results showed that even with a
perfect first spraying as much as II
per cent of the apples might be wormy
at the side.
Suggestions to Growers.
Since there is so much variation in
the way growers do their work Mr.
Tumble suggests that every man try
himself out before he reduces the
number of sprayings. To set aside
certain blocks of trees, so in a block,
and on one to try the single spray
system. and on another the two or

Alarming Outcome of American Fed
GRAFTON of Labor Decision i'm
Switchmcn's Trouble.

ST PAUL, Dec. 21.-Presiden Haw-
ley of the Switchmen's union announc-
ed tonight that the heads of the vari-
Gus departments of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor would leave for their
headquarters tonight to prepare for a
general strike unless the railroads
meet thei. demands.
The developments of the day were
contrary to expectations and the con-
troversy instead of being amicably
settled has resulted in even a wider
breach than before. Not only have
lhe switchmen declared off all ne
gotiations, but labor leaders say there
is a strong possibility of general
strike by all allied orders belonging
to the railway branch of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor.
Railroads Change Front.
Acting Chairman Perham of the
railway council, left tonight for Wash
ington to seek advice. In speaking of
the days developments, Perham said
that Friday the matter was on the
verge of settlement but in the interim
the railroads have changed front and
assumed such an arrogant attitude
that unionists decided at once to have
nothing more to do with them. Per-
ham said he arrived in Washington,
Thursday. He also said as the inter-
vention of the state authorities had
failed he should seek aid of the United
States. Perham would not say to
which department at Washington he
proposed to appeal.
In the controversy today the rail-
roads refused to take back all switch
men at once, but agreed to re-employ
those for whom they had places
They gave the switchmen until We'd
nesday noon to accept the offer. The
offer was Immediately rejected by
labor leaders.

that he would submit the two to a

The North Yakima branch of the
Valley of the Yakima High Line asso-

the Rose Land company and learned
that there has been contributed s625
toward the expenses to be incurred in
a survey to be submitted to the feder-
al government authorities. This IS
the amount contributed through the
North Yakima branch. 1t was report
ed also that Prosser has pledged itself
for $1,000. The cost of the survey will
probably be about $4,000 and there is
therefor more money to be raised. The
contributions, however, are coming in
lairly freely as it is generally recog
nized that the move is an excellent
thing for the people of this section.
