The EMPIRE
and THE navy
Admiral Lord Beresford Advo-
Gates Six Distinct Fleets
WARMING TO GREAT BRITAIN
IMPOSSIBLE FOR JOHN BULL TO
MAINTAIN TWO POWER STAND
ARD UNLESS DoMINIoNs COME
IN AND ASSIST, DECLARES NOT
ED ADMIRAL.

London, June 26.-Admiral Lord
Beresford was the principal speaker
at the closing meeting this morning on
the Imperial Press, as giving the views
on the question of the empire and the
navy.
1T is impossible" he declared, "to
maintain a two-power standard un-
less the dominions come in and as
sist."
The speakers general plan for an
empire navy, as outlined in his speech,
contemplates distinct fleets for each
of the foreign nations of the empire,
Great Britain, Canada, Australia, New
Zealand and South Africa. These fleets
should be able TO protect routes of
trades, and capable of being turned
equally into offensive weapons. There
should be stanard stations, interchange
of officers as well as interchange of
ships, and repairing stations should be
established throughout the empire.
Naval Stations DismantIed.
by some extraordinary mad infatu-
alton for which / am quite unable to
account said Lord Beresford, "the re-
pairing stations upon which we have
spent SO much money have been dis
mantled."
Continuing the admiral suggested
that the dominions could assist greatly
in this general plan by rebuilding and
re-equipping those abandoned naval
bases. In the event of war all the
fleets Of the empire would have to act
under a central strategical bureau
which would have to be established by
the admiralty.

New York, June 26.--With Leon
Ling, in whose room was found the
body of Miss Elsie Sigel, missing, and
world wide search failing to reveal
any trace of him, the police today
turned to a new thory
The new theory. which is substan-
tiated by many facts, leads to the sup
position that the missing Chinese was
killed at the same time that Elsie Sigel
was strangled to death.
The evident ignorance or contemplate
faIsity of Chung Sin, In his story OF
the killing OF Elsie SigeI, by Leon
Ling, has led the police to believe
Chung is telling that storv to hide a
deeper and more insignificant version.
The police have discovered that the
telegram purporting TO have come from
Elsie and dated Washington, received
by Paul Sigel, the girls father, on the
night OF June ., was delivered by a
Chinese named Arthur Yung, close
friend Of Chu Gain, Icons rival, who
said he had received 1t at No. Mott
street. the address OF Chu Gains res
taurant.
Yung Has Disappeared.
On June 1s, four days after the kill
ing OF Elsie. Arthur Yung disappeared.
and he has not been found yet. chu
Gain, his dearest friend, denies ne
knows where ne Is, or that he knew he
was going away
Throughout the time between the dis
appearance Of Elsie SigeI and the find-
ing OF her body Chu Gain was very
busy in the search for her. When the
police went to the SigeI home, after
the body was discovered, they found
chu Gain there comforting the family
1t was the anonymous letters oil
which Chu Grain told the police that
furnished the theory that Leon slew
Elsie In the room and 1t was Chu Gain
who gave the police the story Of FL

than the best he can buy
is making a serious mis-
take.
A good tree at a fair
price is cheaper than
pood tree or one Of ques-

Orchard land is too val
liable to be encountered
with trees that will be a
long time in bringing re-
turns.
Our trees are grown on
the Yakima Reservation,
isolated from old orchards,
being as a consequence
free from pest or disease,

in planting orchards: The first thing
to engage a mans attention who is
seeking land for an orchard is that of
location. 1t is a serious mistake to
suppose that all locations are equally
valuable for orchard purposes. The
chief differences in location pertain to
freedom from frost and the coloring
of the fruit. No one can be in the
fruit business on the Pacific slope very
long till he will find that some local
tiles are practically free from damage
from frost, while others are subject to
this drawback From reliable resources
1 have learned that there is a section
of country near Grand Junction, Colo
RADIO, known as "the Palisades" where
fruits of all kinds are very nearly i'm
mune from frost damage. Lands in
this favored location are immensely
valuable, one bearing orchard having
sold there a year or two ago for $4,000
per acre. 1 could mention some such
localities nearer home, but some per-
sons would feel offended if I did not
include their locality in one of these
frost-proof sections. I may say, how
ever, that the locality where my own
orchards are situated is not one of the
very best in this respect-there are
some places in the county better than
mine.
What makes the difference between
localities as it respects freedom from
frosts? There are two conditions that
lead to this difference. One is known
as favorable to frost drainage" and the
other to air currents caused by the
surrounding hills. Prof. L. H. Baily,
