LIQuOR INTERESTS MENACED
BY NEW INVENTION

The prohibition question may soon
be solved in peculiar way by
science. Saloons will have to go, or
at least lose large per centage of
trade. Engineer Meardt, of Copen-
hagen, has succeeded in solidifying
beer, ale and stout and claims that he
will soon have all other liquors con
quered in the same way. He claims
that one pound of his tablets will make
a gallon of superior beer, ale or stout
by simply adding water, and that the
cost Tin Denmark) will not exceed one
cent per bottle. The tablets can be
made into any desired form, such as
chocolate bon bons, lozenges. etc.
The revenue laws will have to be
changed to offer any restriction to the
sale of the tablets. Prohibition laws
cannot reach them, and there your are.
Now, one can say to the prohibition
league, in the language of Billy: Now
look what YOU went and done.'' Beer
at one cent bottle, whisky two drinks
for five cents and possibly chambagne
for only 10 cents per bottle-wow.
Tablets will be so cheap that some of
those absent minded gepiuses will be
slipping them into the collection trays
at church instead of slot machine
checks. 1t is to be hoped that we
will next have T-bone steaks at one
cent each and meal tickets in place
of trading stamps.

CHANGE WILL
BE CONTESTED BY GROWERS
Especial to Silver State.l

SPOKANE, Sept. 2s.-Believing
that the La Fean apple package and
grading bill, introduced at the special
session of the United States congress,
last winter. is designated to favor
special interests and that it's enactment
will prove detrimental to the fruit in
dustry in the Pacific northwest, the
executive committee of the Washing
ton State Horticultural association and
the board of trustees of the National
Apple show have called convention
Iof apple growers, shippers, representa-
tives of refrigerator ear concerns and
box manufacturers to meet in Spo-
kan, November l6, for the purpose of
considering the provisions of the
measure.
That concerted fight is to be wag-
cd against the bill is evidenced by the
appended paragraphs, contained in a
circular letter to be issued to growers,
shippers, box manufacturers and refrig-
orator car men, in the west, by l.. G..
Monroe. secreary of the Washington
State Horticultural association and
Rem II. Rice, secretary manager of the
National Apple show.
"This bill is designated we believe,
to favor private interests, and if enact
ed much harm to the fruit industry of
the Pacific northwest will result.
"The fame of the apple business of
the Pacific slope and inter-mountain
region of the west has become world
wide, and while the superiority of our
apples is conceded, much of this fame
is due to the manner in which this
staple fruit product is prepared for
market. We refer to the standard
box, which contains a little more than
a (Winchester) bushel, the standard
dry measure of the United States
Uniformity in package and grad
ing is desired, but we contend that
the apple growers, who are box users,
have something to say and should be
heard on this important matter"
Messrs. Monroe and Rice say in a
Joint statement that the horticultural
societies of Idaho, Oregon and Mon
tana will join in the call and urge
growers and shippers in their states to
attend the convention, which will be-
gin its sessions at 1:30 O'Clock the
morning of November l6 in the G. A.
/ r. hall of the state armory in Spo-
kane. The sessions will be open to
representatives of apple associations
and growers unions and others inter
csted in the movement. Champions of
the La Fean bill will also have an op-
portunity to present their side OF the
argument.
"We desire the opinion of every
grower and shipper in the west ON the
apple box question: said Mr. Rice
s.to determine whether, in their Judg-
ment and experience, the present
standard should be maintained or a
new one adopted. Those who cannot
attend are requested to write to l.. T..

Are You a seeuars

All the beggars are not holding out
= hand to passers-by In the street.
You probably know the man who is
ever whining for help. II farmer,
he thinks his neighbors should help
him get in his grain or do his plowing.
II in business. he is always trying to
borrow, or wanting some one to boost
him, or drum up customers. He never
seems to think of relying on his own
efforts. There is we'll known fable
about the la.ks in grain field. AS
long as the farmer depended on his
neighbors and relations to come and
cut his grain the larks felt perfectly
safe. When the man determined to
cut the grain himself the larks knew
1t was time to seek safety elsewhere

needs help, but help should be asked
only when one has made every pos
sible effort for himself.

New system Of Wireless,

According to recent press report,
new system of wireless telegraphy
has just been completed by the Ger
man Telefunken Wireless Telegraph
company. The system goes by the
name Of singing sparks" and 1t is
claimed for it that it produces contin.
uous oscillations. says Scientific
American. How this system differs
from the singing arc is not explained.
If system has been evolved by which
continuous oscillations may be main.
tanned with perfect regularity. the
value Of it would be even greater for
wireless telephony than for wireless
telegraphy, as 1t would enable one
to send spoken messages over much
longer radius than has hitherto been
possible.
