FOR SANE FOURTH
IN MISSOURI
Governor Hadley Takes Steps to Pre-
serve Life and Limb Of the
Children.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, March %.
For the protection of the lives and
limbs of the host Of young Missou-
rians. Governor Hadlev took active
steps for the promotion of quiet and
sane Fourth Of July celebration this
year. He mailed letters to the police
boards of st. Louis. Kansas City and
st. Joseph, instructing them to see
the dealers in explosives, cannon
crackers, etc. and notify them to hold
down theil stock this year, inasmucf
as the people will not be permitted
to use them.
The governor expects this to do
much to promote the safe observance
of the day If the explosives are not
for sale then there can be no acct
dents to Young Missourians who want
to celebrate the birth of their cOun
try. When the time arrives the gov
! ernor will request the boards to Is
sue rigorous orders forbidding the
use of explosives within the city
! limits.
Last year there We're IA deaths and
32S accidents on the Fourth of July
This is too high total, the governor
says, for the state to pay, and he pro
poses that this Fou h OF July shall
pass without casualty if possible.

HILL DROPS HOBBY"
Calls Commissioners in Klickitat
County Niggardly.

Seattle. Sept. s12.-Saying he Is dis
gusted with what he calls the mig
gardly policy adopted by the commits
sioners of Klickitat county, where he
has invested between 100000 and
100000, Samuel Hill has paid off
all his laborers at Maryhill and. ac-
cording to dispatches from Golden
dale, has announced his intention to
withdraw from the county.
Sam Hills hobby" has proved a
veritable bonanza for the people in
that vicinity. The monthly payroll
on his projects amounts to about
$4,000. All work has been sus-
pended now and some citizens are de-
nouncing what they believe is the
short-sighted policy of the commits
sioners and are striving TO raise a
sucient sum by subscription to show
Mr.. Hill that his efforts are appIeci-
ated and have the adverse action OF
the commissioners repudiated by the
people of the county.
The situation in Klickitat has
sprung into sudden prominence
through this abrupt and drastic ac-
ton of Mr.. Hill and also because OF
a daring and sensational escape OF
two convicts from the state camp.

Advice Given by Big Apple
Man of New York
City.

aIt would be an excellent thing ii
your commercial club or fruit grow
ers' association should send a COM
petent man back east now and keep
him there for six months to make a
thorough study of the methods in
vogue among fruit buyers and dis
tributors.
This is the advice given by r. P.
LOOMS, junior member of E. P.
LOOMS & Co., the firm which han
dies more Wenatchee apples in New
York City than all other dealers to-
gether. He does all his buying here
through the Wenatchee Produce COM
pany. He is registered at the Olym-
pia hotel and is here comforting with
Conrad Rose.
Here is one big fruit buyer who
has placed himself in position to
see things from the growers stand
point. He owns $50 acres of young
orchard at Hood River and 20 acres
of bearing orchard in Colorado.
my brother and | own this COM
mission firm and are able to quit
business if We do not like it. But
we enjoy it. Buying and selling high
quality fruit is handling clean
package and brings one into touch
only with the very best class OF
trade"
The reporter of the Daily World
would not have known who r. P
Loomis is but for conversation las'
week with F. E. Goodall, one of the
directors of the apple show who wa:
here at the recent conference. Mr.
Goodall remarked that when he wa:
making a big exhibit in New York
City last winter his supply of Wash
ington grown apples became depict
ed and he could find none in the
city except at E. P. LoOmis & Cos
Practically all their stock came from
Wenatchee and they supplied him
with ten boxes per week all winter
with which to advertise the Arcadia
project whose lands Mr.. GoOdall was
selling.
Mr.. LOOMS paid a high compli-
ment to Wenatchee apples when he
frankly volunteered that their quail
| ity last winter was acknowledged by
all to be the best ever shown in the
| first city of America. At the same
time he confessed that some Wenat
chez growers had put one over

More Sad Experience in
Dealing With Willy Com
mission Merchant.

A Spokane commission house has
sent A. v. Sheppard bill for $1.S2
which it is claimed is due the firm
as the excess of expense above re-
ceipts for a shipment of fruit recent
ly shipped.
Here are the facts: On July 2S
Mr.. Sheppard consigned four boxes
of Bartlett pears and % boxes of
Duchess apples. In a day or so ac-
acknowledgement was received from the
firm stating that the consignment
should bring good prices because the
market quotations were $1.75 to ~
for pears and 81 to $1.25 for apples.
Nothing more was heard for two
weeks and an inquiry was sent re-
auesting a report. The reply was a
denial by the firm that any such
shipment had been sent. Mr.. Shep-
hard then sent a copy of his receipt
In about ten days more he was adj
vised that the fruit was received but
that the market had gone all to
pieces and that the pears and apples
were being stored. Last Saturday
Mr.. Shepard received bill as stated
above with the explanation that
commission and freight charges
amounted to $1.S2 more than was
| received for the fruit.
Mr.. Shepard would like to see a
bill passed by the next Legislature
compelling each commission man to
render a report to the shipper Civ.
ing the names and addresses of the
parties to whom consignments are
sold. Under the present regime the
shipper is absolutely at the mercy
of the INSCRIPTIONS commission mer-
chant.

green. That sort of thing is the
greatest obstacle in the way of main
tanning good PRICES for: the product.
!. Discussing the matter of 'prices for
apples, Mr.. LOOMS was fertile with
suggestions. He was aware that a
suspicion prevails among the, Wenat-
chez growers and business men that
this valley is not getting the price
for it's product which rightfully be-
longs to it. He thinks that the alb
sence of any extensive array of buy
ers this season is solely due to the
losses suffered by produce merchants
a year ago, and not to any monopoly
formed among the buyers.
To quiet the suspicion Mr.. Loomis
believes a competent man should be
sent east to learn market conditions,
just how much the buyers are max
ing and how they get their profits.
He predicts true report of actual
facts would result in more intelli-
gent study of the problem.
Mr. Loomis is frank in dealing
with conditions governing the dis
tribution of the apple crop. He con-
fesses that the reason for the losses
suffered by the buyers last year were
caused more by faulty distribution
than to the high prices paid. Yet he
does not see how higher prices can
be paid if the present system of dis
tribution continues.
1.-The radical trouble lies in the
fact that the northwest is shipping
the bulk of it's crop to two centers
only. You overload the already glut-
ted markets at Chicago and New
York, leaving the rest of the coun-
try hungry. Our own firm received
orders from Cleveland, Cincinnati
and other cities of the middle west.
Now those cities should be supplied
by carload shipments direct from this
valley. There is too much waste"
1T is a mistake" continued the
New York man, Ito give too large a
consignment to one house. No firm
should undertake to handle more
than it is equipped to dispose of a,
fair prices After passing the limit
of what it is organized to handle tC
advantage, a firm is compelled tC
sacrifice with quotations under the
market"
How about giving some one firm
| the sale of the entire output of the
valley if it could be concentrated into
the association pool?" was asked OF
Mr.. Loomis.
We'll, that would bring good re-
suits if the firm was honestly man
aged and a corps of solicitors were
put into 40 or so cities to visit the
trade and take daily orders
Mr.. Loomis thought it would be
more advantageous to place an ex'
ceptionally able man at the head OF
| the association, a man to whom II
would be good business to pay sal
airy of $4,000 per year; then to de
velop a selling organization with So
| licitors throughout the eastern cities
