There have been plenty Of them. no

condemned-so vigorously. that every
sort of medicine. the formula of which
is privately owned. is condemned and
pronounced ''unethicar' by the Medical
Profession.
Eckman's Alternative deserves atten-

but because it really has cured many
cases of tuberculosis. If it is fraud
1t needs exposing badly. because a

A PACKING SCHOOL
For Apple Growers Is Now Be-
inq Advocated by Wash
ington Man. ~
TO HELP SOLVE PROBLEM

Spokane, Wash, Feb. 8.-Homer J.
Shinn, one of the big apple dealers OF
Spokane, and Rem Rice, secretary Of
the National apple show, are advocat-
ing packing school for Spokane
county to help solve the problem of
the annual shortage in apple packers
of experience.
Last year capable packers We're in
great demand and several big grow
ers had to send to Hood River, Greg.
and elsewhere to get men to help
them out, especially during the apple
show.
The Commercial club of Walla Wal
la. Wash, with the cooperation of
Walla Walla valley growers, has insti-
tited free packing school for young
men which is meeting with great sue
cess and it is believed that similar
institution here would be Of great
benefit. Expert packers make from
$3.50 to $3.50 day and board.
Both men and women have been at
lending the Walla Walla school,
which is in session each day during
'it Institute bo" III oCcolOI
there. The school is in charge Of n
Y. TOsteVin, an eXnert packer from
Hood River and Professor Briefly in
structor in fruit packing at the state
college. Certificates are given to
those attending the school who have
attained satisfactory proficiency.
AN apple packers school in Spo-
kane would go a long way toward
solving the problem Of the shortage
of good packers in this vicinity said
Mr.. Shlnn. we find that we have
to educate our own packers. A school
would be the means of providing
young men with a profitable calling
as well as being of immense benefit
to the fruit growers of Spokane coun-
~
The market value of apples de-
ponds largely on the packing said
Mr.. Rice. 1T is an exact science and
to the proficiency of our packers is
due to no small degree the supremacy
