Panama American Union, has been
addressing all the leading CONNER

feel a wonderful development slim

seaports will not be prepared to han

Francisco, Portland and seattle-al
are busy with harbor improvements

Hamilton Found just "Knocker,'
Not "Twister."

That J. T. Hamilton, life insur-
ance agent of Colfax. against whom
charges of twisting" had been lodged
with the state insurance department,
is found, upon investigation, to be
not guilty of twisting" but of in
dulging in the too general practice
among agents of knocking" is the
report Of Deputy Commissioner
Madge to Commissioner J. H. Schiye-
ly. 1t is reported that the case is not
sufficiently serious to warrant re-
voking Hamiltons license, Hamilton
admitted having told few men that
certain company was shaky and ad-
vising them to ask the insurance de-
partment concerning the truth of the
report. The report censures Hamilton
for knocking and condemns the prac-
tice. but otherwise Hamilton is let
down easy

Compares COST of Production

Following closely after an an
nouncement of the experts OF Wash
ington state college on the coat of
producing box Of apples In the
inland Empire, New York grower
has made a table of comparison
which shows the difference in thu
cost Of production in the two loeali.
ties.
washington estimates place the
cost or raising and marketing a box
OF apples at 5S.1 cents, while the
New York orchardist says his cost
shows an average of S1.10 a barrel
FOR nine years. In this average two
items, the interest on the land and
overhead charges, such as insurance.
and taxes, which are not contained
IN the Washington estimates, are
given. On the other hand, his table
makes NO intention of bringing the
orchard to bearing as does the Wash
ington report. The report was made
from an orchard which is from SO
to 90 years old and which contains
zS4 trees on six and one-tenth acres.
His Figures
In his report he says: ITO sum
up the items of cost of production
we find that II takes an average Of
nine years, with an annual crop of
4o9 barrels, or 81 per cent. 81
acres of an old orchard that spray
material costs $,34 per barrel; pack
ages $.0325; interest on the land
S'S4; use of equipmen ts, SOS; taxes
$'oll; labor, $.565; or a total of
$l.lO per barrel If the estimated
cost OF manure for fertilizlng be add
ed, the total will be $1.l6. This cost.
OF course, varies with the size OF the
crop. When our yield was 1912 bar
refs per acre, the cost per barrel was
only ~ cents, When II was 35 bar
refs per acre tho cost per barrel rose
to SI13. In 1910 we grew a crop of
"a barrels per acre for $40 per
barrel
Makes Five Per Cent
TO put it another way we could
gro" aud deliver on board the cars
at our station a barrel of apples for
from $l.OO to 1926 with an aver
age crop under ordinary conditions.
ln doing this We wuld expect to make
per cent ON the capital Invested
and to receive fair wages for our la
Dor. In addition to this we should
have all the culls and the windfau
apples to sell at clear profit, for the
cost of producing and handling
these has been included in the esti-
mated cost, as 1t could not we'll be
separated. These have amounted to
an average of 20 cents a barrel In
the last nine years. To reduce the
matter to still lower basis, we
think that our experience has shown
that we can expect to grow and sell
a barrel of apples at 80 cents and
pay all expenses connected with It's
production"

MORAL GROWTH IS URGED
Negro Youth Needs More Than Indus. trial Schooling, Says Bishop Mo
 Coy of Methodist Church.

Birmingham, Ala, May 27-In deliv ering the annual address at the com. mencement exercises of Miles Memo rial college. a negro institution main, tained by the negro Methodist church Bishop J. H. Mccoy of the Methodist Episcopal church, south, held up the moral and intellectual development of the negro as the safest guarantee of racial development, rather than indus trial education.
 q would not for one moment dero- gate from the good work of Booker Washington in giving industrial educa- tion to the negro youth" he said. But making history is on a higher plane than that. Your industrial develop ment is not worth a rap unless it is given value by the ideals C morals and intelligence. What makes land worth more in Birmingham than in Africa is the morals and intelligence that have been put into it."

MAY CEN30R STEEL FACTS
President Has Power to Decide What to Turn Over to Steel Trust

N Washington, May 27.-President Taft will have the final say as to whether all of the information collected by the bureau of corporations, depart ment of commerce and labor, relating to the iron and steel industry, shall be turned over the steel trust inves- tisating committee of the house
 This fact developed after an execu- tive session by the committee, which was attended by Secretary Nagel and Commissioner Smith of the bureau of corporations. The inference is that some members were inclined to insist on having all available information at once. It is known that there is no disposition to withhold from the com. mittee any information that it is prop, CT to turn over to body whose work
 is to be wholly public Some of the information collected is of a strictly confidential character. The bureau of corporations is required only to report to the presient

Seats for everybody
FIRST WEEK OF EXTRA SESSION
 HAS PASSED

Little Rock, May 21.-Ihe first week of the extra session h a S passed, a listless, indifferent, protitless week. The evidence accumulates that no notable con- structive legislation will be en- acted this time, and that every thing is playing into the hands, politically, of the governor. Nei- ther House is in session today.
 The most important action of the House Friday was the pas sage of the bill by Partain, Bel lamy and Jones providing for the assessment of notes, mortgages and other evidences of credit. Hardage and Grant led the fight against it as a most drastic meas ure, that would have the effect of double taxation and the mullify- ing of just obligation. Judge Hardage predicted that if it be- came a law. the banks would or ganize holding concerns in Mis- souri and elsewhere beyond the reach of the tax assessor n d thus evade it. Faucette of Pu- laski argued that it would make money harder to borrow and drive out foreign capital. It pass ed by vote of 45 ayes, 34 noes. It is freely predicted that it will never pass the Senate, and even that it will not be entertained there, as not being strictly with in the purview of the governors call.
 It provides that all notes, mor- tages and other papers of credit held by any person, company Tor corporation shall be assessed at their actual cash value. If any note, mortage or other papers held as evidence of credit by any person, company or corporation shall fail" ssays the bill, Ito be assessed and stamped by the of ficial stamp of the assessor dur ing the assessment period of each year so held, then such notes, mortgages or evidences of credit shall become void and uncollect. able. Provided, however, h t any holder of any such mortgages notes or other evidence of credit may redeem such a become void and collectable by paying the tax on the actual cash value with in nine months afterthe regular assessment period.

Taft Opposes Amendments.

Washington, May 26.-After talk with Secretary of State Knox and Chairman Penrose, of the senate finance committee, President Taft ex- plained that he is unalterably opposed to proposed amendments to the Cana dian reciprocity bill The president took the position that amendments might endanger the passage of the measure. The views of Secretary Knox were not disclosed. Senator Penrose said he hoped to see the bill pSRs9d without amendment.
