sands Say It's the Best Thing
They Ever Grew.

The Wonderberry or Sunberry, the
marvellous garden fruit originated by
Luther Burbank, and introduced by
John Lewis Childs, the well-known
Scotsman of Floral Park, N. Y, has
proved great success all over the
country. Thousands of people say 1t
is the best thing they ever grew.
Mr.. John Burroughs, the well-known
author, Naturalist and bosom-friend of
Theodore Roosevelt, says it is the
most delicious pie berry he ever tasted,
and marvellous cropper.
A Director of the New York Agricul-
tural Experiment Station says it fruits
abundantly even in pure sand. In the
short season of Northwestern Canada
it is a godsend, and fruits long after
frost has killed most garden truck.
D. s. Hall, Wichita, Kan, says thirty
people grew it there last season with
perfect satisfaction.
K S. Enochs, Hammond, La, says
1t yields $3.50 worth of fruit per
acre with him. Mrs. j. H. Powers,
4732 Kenwood avenue, Chicago, raised
enough berries on a space 4x10 feet
to supply herself and friends.
]. P. Swallow, Kenton, Ohio. says its
equal for all purposes does not exist
Rev. H. B. Sheldon, Pacific Grove
Cal, says he likes the berries served
in any and every way.
W. t. Davis, Enon, Va, says 1t Is
true to description in every way, and
fruits in three months from seed.
Judge Morrow, of U. s. Circuit
Court, says the Wonderberry is simply
delicious raw or cooked.
Mr. Childs exhibited one plant five
months old bearing 10,375 berrie:
which measured about eight quarts.
Mrs. Hattie Vincent, Hayden, New
Mexico, says it stands the long, hare
droughts of that climate and fruit:
abundantly all summer.

garden fruit and the greatest Novelt!

Childish Inference.

Little Julia was taking her after

tention was attracted for the first time
to large church edifice on one of the
street corners.
"Oh, mother!" she exclaimed,
whose nice big house is that?"
THAT, Julia, is Gods house." ex-
planned the mother.
Some time later 1t happened that
the child was again taken by the
church, this time on Sunday evening
when services were in progress.
Julia, noticing the brilliantly lighted
windows, drew her own conclusions.

and more passengers. You'd have to
put in strong braces here and there

This wheel arrangement is some
thing new" continued Mervyn Have
you seen how the steering wheel is
arranged on an automobile? There Is
one shaft inside another. One works
the steering apparatus and the other
opens the throttle. I'm going to try
the same kind of arrangement on my
big machine. One of the shafts will
work the rudder and the other the
dip-plane. This arrangement will save
weight and will be lot easier to man
age than the levers that are now used.
This aeroplane is going to be as
light as any of those the big men have
made. And I'm going to have Cur
tiss motor, so am sure It'll be able
to carry two passengers. The Bier
lot monoplane has carried three.
But the monoplane could not be ex.
tended like my machine could. II a
single plane were made too big there
would be too much strain on the
framework. Besides, you could not
get enough lift on with one very big
plane as you could with these planes

Radical Who Does
 Not Favor Recall

That the recall proposition, now be- lore the constitutional convention. is not beng particularly advoca.ed. even by those who have been look 'upon -as men of somewha; radical tendencies, was demonstrated in a coaversa ion PRos- PECroR repre sentative had yesterday with W E. Cleay. As IS we'll known, NIT. Cleary is 2 man of advanced ideas. He has had he courage of his con vicuons and hls never hesitafed to ex- press his views on any subject that has come up for discussion. His remarks, therefore, rsga dlng the recall movement ,re worthy of moie shan passing notice.
 "E.'ura lY, l favcr the recall. but am not so nfmlY welded 10 the propos .tion Ina, l would care 10 leopardize statehood in order 10 obtain il" said Mir. Cleary. "It is not fundamental measure by any means, and can well be leit 10 the next legislature to act upon. With the moor pora,ion of the initiative and referendum ID the constitution, the elimination of the recall would, in my opinion, work no hardship. l. Is not essential by any means.
 Another thing am heartily in favor of is the election of members of the iI1ici.ry for sh II terms-no, over tour ,ears. Judges, like the balance of us m ,rtals, are not infallible, and should not be placed in positions fer long term. or life. Having 10 come before the people at comparatively short intervals, they are more responsive 10 the people than otherwise.
 Tn conclusion, said Mir. Clearv, "while a proponent of all reforms that serve to give citizens greater control over their governmental affairs, | believe .ha, ,h- incorporation of the recall in the new states charter would be an impoIliic move, as it might epdanger our chances of statehood, and il is very possible Congress and the President may be locking fIr some such excuse to turn US dowh.
