The North Carolina Station says:
-"The results of the two years ex-
perimentation indicate that seed
corn grown in the same or nearly
the same latitude as that in which
it is to be planted will give the
best results, and that seed grown
in the neighborhood where they
are to be planted are preferable to
those grown farther north or far
ther south" The North Dakota
Station says: "The best corn for
a given locality in that state is usu-
ally variety which has grown and
ripened seed for the longest period
of years in that locality, provided
it has been kept pure and true to
type and adapted by selection to
the particular climate and soil. "
Let US go into our fields before
harvesting the corn and select the
ears with desirable characteristics
from the best stalks. Less time is
necessary to select from the field
than is necessary to select from
the crib.

HEARD FROM D-
CURS|ON|STS
TRAIN WAS TWO HOURS LATE
BUT BAND DISGUISED MUSIC
AND THE CROWD WAS PRE-
PARED TO DO THINGS.

Enroute to Seattle on Wenatchee
Day Excursion, Seattle, Sept. 2.-The
Wenatchee Day excursion train is
composed of ten coaches, two diners
and two baggage cars. There are ON
board 1S1 women and 573 men. The
night and morning train also took
out two hundred people and the noon
train took out one hundred people.
There is feeling of goodfellowship
all over the train and the trip is
proving a very enjoyable one. But
tons, badges. banners and hats for
the parade were distributed through
the train. The committee also went
through the train and appointed per-
sons to rooms at the various hotels
in Seattle. We expect to have at
least 1900 people with US in the
parade The band is playing all
through the train from car to car,
and. the people are singing Wenat-
cnoe songs.
Every lady on the train says that
she will join in the parade Friday
forenoon. The train is about two
hours late due to it's length. There
are crowds at all stations to greet
us and all seem to be in sympathy
with the Big Red Apple town and its
people.
Dr. King says the people of We
natchee don't know what they are
missing. This is one of the greatest
days in the history of Wenatchee.
z. E. Hoyden says: "The blood of
the people of Wenathee is up. 1t is
evident that the people are alive to
the needs of advertising and that
with a little boosting we will have a
city of 10000 in 1912"
George Hauber. of Peshastin, says:
"Peshastin is in sympathy with the
Wenatchee spirit. We are out in full
strength"

FAM|LyDRESSMAK-
Err PASSING
SEASONS STYLES FIND FAVOR
ONLY FOR READY.TO.WEAR
GARMENTS-BIG STORES RE-
COGNIZE NEW ORDER.

Remember the old family dress
maker, the one who came to your
house at least twice every year and
helped mother make dresses for her
self and your sisters? Well, she is
passing away; that is, her profession
is, for society is demanding some
thing different, and the ready-to-wear
stuff has taken its place in the front
ranks of women's wearables. This
change has been gradually taking
place, but it was never so noticeable
as this year, according to George H.
Ellis, who recently returned from the
east. Mr. Ellis says that there is
still a demand for piece goods, the
silks, satfns and so on, but that he
finds the dress goods departments
in the large stores both east and
west occupying a position Of lesser
Importance this year than ever be-
fore. and the change has been going
on for several years. 1t simply means
that an old and time honored pro-
fession, that of dressmaking, is CIV
ing way; that the expert needle-wo-
man like you used to be acquainted
with when you were boy has passed
beyond your ken, gone to the same
happy hunting grounds that has swal-
lowed up the old printer who travelled
from shop to shop and always found
a job. Nowadays you walk into a
store and call for the latest mode of
costume, gown or suit, and the Or
deal is over in Is minutes, maybe.

ADMIRAL SPERRY
ON RETIRED LIST

Washington, Sept. 3.-Rear Ad-
miral Charles s. Sperry, who gained
fame through his command of the
American battleship fleet on its
memorable cruise from San Francis
co to Hampton Roads, was trans
ferred to the retired list today when
he attained the age of sixty-two. For
the present, however, he is to be re-
tanned on special duty at the Naval
War college at Newport to enable
him to complete certain work in
which he is engaged. When that is
finished it is expected that he will
retire from active duty.
Admiral Sperry goes on the retired
list leaving behind him a brilliant
record as an efficient officer He is
regarded as one of the finest strage-
lists and tacticians in the navy.
Moreover, he has spent more than
forty years afloat in the Chinese and
Pacific stations. to say nothing of
the European station and his years
of duty in American waters. In a
technical way he has also been prom
inent. For two years he was presi-
dent of the Naval War college. He
was member of the general board
and of the joint army and navy
board, which considered the question
of the Notifications of the American
insular possessions. Later he was
one of the American delegates to the
Peace conference at the Hague.
But in one respect Admiral Sperry
is regarded by his brother officers In
the service as a very unfortunate Of
ficer. Despite his forty years and
more of service he has never had the
good luck to fight for his country.
He was appointed to the naval acad-
envy from Connecticut in 1862 and
graduated in 1865. He thus narrow
ly missed an opportunity to take part
in the Civil war When the United
States engaged in hostilities with
Spain in 1896 he was given command
of the Yorktown, and started across
the Pacific to the Chinese station
But by the time he got to the other
side, Admiral Dewey had sailed into
Manila bay and cleaned out the
Spaniards, and there was not any
thing in the fighting line for Sperry
to do. He became a captain in 1900
and a rear admiral in 1906. In the
summer of 1908 he succeeded Rear
Admiral Evans in command of the
battleship fleet and continued in
command during the entire cruise
from San Francisco to the Philip
pines and thence by way of the Suez
canal to Hampton Roads.
