l.. III. TITCHENAL, DELEGATE
FROM CHELAN COUNTY,
ENCE BEFORE COMMITTEE.
Cashmere, Wash, April 10.
Wenatchee Daily World:

Cashmere, WASH, april ~.
Wenatchee Daily World:
AS it is too late in the season and
too busy time to call horticultu-
raj meeting to make my report,
will make a short report through the
World as to my trip to Washington.
I left here the morning of March
and arrived in Washington, d. c.,
on the morning of the 18th. l went
to Senator w. L. Jones Office and
he sent one of his clerks to conduct
me to the committee room. The
committee was in session when I got
there. I found Mr.. Monroe and the
three lobbyists from Oregon there.
We all addressed the committee and
gave some demonstrations with the
few apples that we had. We had
the six boxes that Monroe took with
him and two that the Oregon men
brought, so we made some very good
demonstrations with them at this
meeting
Gibson, of the Gibson Fruit Co., of
Chicago, and Wagner, of the Wagner
Fruit Co., of Chicago, made some
demonstrations for the bill but ours
was more effective and appealed to
the committee more fully than theirs.
Then the committee adjourned for
five days. This gave me time for my
apples to arrive and for me to get
acquainted, so when the committee
met again l put my apples on exhibit
ton in the committee room. 1 had
ten sizes from 4S down to 225-20
boxes in all.
l made a few remarks at this
meeting, and then told the commit
tee to help themselves, to examine
the apples and to see if there was
anything wrong with the box or pack.
Then it was that they began to see
that to enlarge the box meant the
breaking up of our pack. The ap-
pies were what did the work as they
could see better, after they had ex-
amined the apples and the pack,
why they would not fit in a larger
box, especially after we had made
the demonstrations in packing, than
they could by just our talk without
the apples.
Mr.. Hawley, congressman from
Oregon, is great friend to the
northwest box and a great worker
for it. In fact all of the northwest
congressman and senators-especial-
ly Poindexter and w. L. Jones-are
our friends.

FROM MISSISSIPPI.

Dear Daddy jim: AS Il saw my
other letter in print, it gave me
courage to come again. Papa is
Watson man. He says that he wishes
there were more men just like him.
We have been having some very dry
weather here, and were all glad in
deed to see rain last Thursday.
Our protracted meeting closed last
Friday night. The result was eight
converts. Our pastor was assisted
by Brother Goblet, of Blue Springs,
and also Brother Henry West. The
school Of this place began today with
nice attendance. A good many new
boys and girls. The county fair will
be held the twenty-frst of this
month. The answer to Jacob San
dage's first riddle is river. If this
is right | shall expect card. With
best wishes to Daddy and all the
Cousins, A. S. Black, Ecru, Miss
I notice that so many of our
members use will when they mean
shall" The first person, future
tense, verb ito be-" is SHALL shall,
we shall. 1t changes in the sacond
and third persons to "will"-you
will, they will. When you say: Il
will go there" you mean that you
have made up your mind to go, that
you have willed to go. there. But if
you are simply speaking Of a future
event you ought to use the word
"shall''-.'I shall go there on Thurs.
day. meaning that you intend to
go if nothing happens to stop YOU
