May Abandon Daily NAH Delivery.


Advices from the Entiat are to the
effect that there is possibility of the
daily mail service between Entiat and
Brief being abandoned. Recently the
carrier who has handled the mail for
the past year put in a bid for the COM
ing year at $685.. The department
has written that it is too high and
offered but 1920. There is no one in
the Entiat valley who will handle it
on the offer OF the government and
without the proper representations
are made to the department 1t is
feared that the daily service will be
abandoned. The people in the Entiat
valley are very apprehensive on this
matter.

NOT SELL PEACHES LESS THAN 40c|
Wenatchee Valley Fruit Growers
Association Established Minimum
Price at Meeting Yesferday---But
Little Change in Board of Direct
ors Over That of Last Year

The stockholders of the Wenatchee
Valley Fruit Growers association in
annual meeting yesterday in Che
commercial club rooms set the mini
mum price on peaches for the COM
ing year at 40 cents per box and in
structed the directors of the organi-
cation to sell their output with the
above price as the minimum.
The meeting throughout was a
harmonious one and every stock
holder seemed to be satisfied with
the record of the past year.
The question of marketing the
peach crop met with lively discus
sion. The question of successfully
handling the soft fruit has been the
hardest problem for the association
to solve Only a few days means the
difference between good fruit ana rot
ten fruit, and in some cases it is only
question of few hours between a
good price and no price at all. 1t
is therefore necessary that markets
be established that every man may
know that his fruit is sold The as
ISOLATION took upon itself the meth
cd of establishing the 4. o. b. We
natchee system instead of the con-
signment plan, accordingly the fruit
will be sold as heretofore, I. o. b
Wenatchee Some few weeks ago al
q special meeting of the directors a
committee was appointed to find out
how much soft fruit the association
would be required to handle. This
Is made necessary as 1t is imperative
that the directors should know just
how much of crop OF peaches II
will be required to look after and
TO make the necessary arrangements
before the season opens.
1t IS recognized. however. that the
above action taken by the associa-
ton yesterday is rather an early one
and a meeting Of the peach growers
will be held later on, whom 1t can be
ascertained as to the extent OF the
crop.

here had developed hypothesis antago-

position OF comets tails. DIR. Percival
Lowell, head Of Lowell observatory,
issued a supplementary bulletin last
night in which he says that carbon
monoxide is the strongest constituent
in the appendage of Halley's wanderer.
He says:
Lowell observatory spectograms by
slipper indicate that the strongest and
hitherto unidentified spectral bands in
the tail of Halley's comet coincide with
the spectral bands of carbon monoxide
found by Fowler for that gas under
very low pressure in the laboratory.
Just such condition Of low press
ure must exist in comets tail, and
therefore it is by these bands that
carbon monoxide would reveal its pres
ence This spectrum of the gas is
shown by gentle electric discharges
taking place under pressure of about
100.000ths Of an atmosphere"
