tSNnlDtt beIOre senate Committee Viii Cd
Decided II Against Fishery Agreement.
WASHINGTON. Feb. l0.-Three fisher.
men from the Saginaw Bay region oi
Michigan walked into the room Of the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
to-day armed with nets bait and a few
live lake herring in pals of water. They
appeared before the committee in oppo-
sition to the ratification OF the great
lakes fishery agreement between Canada
and the United States recently nego-
tiated by David Starr Jordan. president OF
Leland Stanford University. and Com
missioner @. W. Prince of the Dominion.
After the fishermen had given a little
exhibition to illustrate their point the
committee by a unanimous vote decided
not to report favorably on the agreement.
Messrs. Orr and Gillingham Of Bayport.
Mich. and Mccormick of Bay City were
the fishermen. After they were reoog-
nized by Senator Cullom OF Illinois. chair
man OF the Committee on Foreign Rela-
tons, Mccormick. the spokesman OF the
party. pulled out a piece OF fishnet Of the
mesh required by the agreement and some
live lake herring that had reached ma
turity. He lifted the fish by their tails
after good deal Of splashing and dropped
them into the net. They promptly slid
through the meshes into a pan that had
been placed on the table around which
sat the dignifed committeeman. This
demonstrated to the satisfaction Of the
committee that in some respects at least
the agreement won't do.

TAGGED rood ORDINANCE.
storage Wen Say u Would Put the Locs
Trade at Disadvantage.

The cold storage men had their say at
the resumed hearing held yesterday by
the committee on laws and legislation
Of the Board of Aldermen on the proposed
ordinance providing that meats and
other foods placed in the cold storage
warehouses shall be tagged with the
date. The storage men said that while
they did not object to having the stun
dated they thought that the ordinance
would be detrimental Cor the reason that
il could only apply lOCally and that while
they would come under the provisions
Of the ordinance outsiders would be
able to bring Their undated produce
into the city without hindrance
The contention was also made that the
ordinance would not benefit the con-
sumer much because the produce tagged
in the warehouses would be in bulk and
when il was distributed among the re-
tailers there would be no tags Another
point made was that the warehouses were
benefit 10 the consumer because cold
storage enabled him TO buy food of various
kinds out of season. IL was shown that
stored foods are sometimes sold at a loss.
Many OF the speakers contended that
food IL fresh when frozen does not suffer
by being stored. This was a final hearing.

WANT WHOLESALERS TO
ADOPT CODE FOR RETAILERS

Spokane, Wash.-When the Nation
al Credit Mems association meets in
Spokane next July, its delegates, rep
resenting various lines of trade in all
parts of the United States, will be
urged to adopt a code of ethics to
govern wholesale houses and jobbers
in their dealings with retail stores,
w. e. Sanders of Occur d'Alene, Ida
mho, president Of the Inland Empire
Retail Grocers' association, and A.
w. Bower, president of the Spokane
Grocers' association. will present a
code, in effect as follows:
That wholesale merchants and job
bers exercise the utmost loyalty to the
retail dealers in selling only to those
who are entitled to buy at wholesale
That they do not encourage any
person to embark in business in com.
munities already supplied with stores
to handle the trade.
That they refuse financial support
to any dealer who has not the train
ing or ability to succeed, and who
through ignorance of the cost of do.
ing business, sells goods at a loss
thus causing annoyance to competit'
ors and loss of legitimate profit.
The foregoing has been adopted by
the Spokane Wholesale Merchants as
ISOLATION, effective at once, me it is
believed it will greatly simplify mat
tiers and protect dealers in the Spo-
kane country.
Philip Carbary, secretary of the In
land Empire Retail Grocers' associa-
ton, says the enforcement of the
provisions of the code will eliminate
boxcar peddling, a traffic that is
harmful to wholesalers and commu-
mites in general, as it results in
throwing shopworn and cheap goods
upon the market at demoralizing
prices. He believes it a means of pro-
tecting the trade and the honest Gus
toner.

WASHINGTON ORCHARDIST
CLAIMS WORLDS RECORD

Spokane, Wash.-Levi G. Monroe,
secretary of the Washington State
Horticultural association, claims a
worlds record for o. G. France. a
fruit grower in the Wenatchee valley.
who received $500 for a crop of
Winesap apples taken from a single
acre in his orchard. E. A. Farris, an
orchardist at Orondo, Wash. picked
so boxes or $500 pounds of apples
from one tree, selling them in the or
chard for S62.50, at which rate an
acre of his tract would yield $500
worth of fruit. Mr.. France won nu-
merous prizes in box contests at the
second National Apple show in Spo-
kane last November, also carrying off
some of the best trophies at the Dem
yer show. AS evidence hat the grow
ers have faith in the various districts
in Washington n hat they believe
such a thing as over production is out
of question, it is announced that be-
tween $500. 900 and 4,000,0 900 apple
trees will be planted in various dis
tricts asst of the Cascade mountains
this season. OF these more than l.
000, 600 will be set in orchards along
the Columbia river, between the inter-
national boundary and the mouth Of

Car Off the Track,

Pendleton people who happened to
be at the depot this morning were
given a practical illustration of the
work done by the big wrecking cranes
in cases of emergency. A box car,
loaded with coal had been run clear
off the end of its spur and under or
binary circumstances it would have
been necessary to unload the car be-
fore it could have been placed back
on the rails. Fortunately one of the
wrecking francs which has been used
in picking up" the Cayuse wreck
was in the yards and the work of put
ting the derailed car back into posi-
ton was soon accomplished.
