fruit production. He had heard that
there was. lots Of scale at Mountain

After going through two or three
orchards he was greatly surprised to-
find no trace Of scale whatever. lie
found the orchards unusually healthy
He stated that Boise valley was fun
of scale and there they had been
spraying for several years. Here in
the local orchards no spray had ever
been used.
In the Rohrer orchard he found
neither scale nor moth. He is greatly
interested in the local situation and
shay continue his inspection until
every tree has been examined
TO have the state send a competent
inspector into the vicinity to examine
trees is indeed a great boon to the
orchards growers. Everyone desires
a clean and healthy orchard. success
otherwise is impossible, and to have
the orchard examined at the expense
of the state is great economy to

RAISE MORE COTTON IN EGYPT
The Government Has Created De-
partment of Agriculture, and
Taken Up Work Seriously.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Experi-
ments in cotton culture are being
made by the Egyptian government
with a view to increasing the pro-
duction of that country, according
to United States Consul D. r.. Birch
at Alexandria, Egypt. The govern
ment is conducting these expert
ments on it's Korashieh estates with
a new cotton seed styled "assili,"
which has produced approximately
500 pounds per acre. 1t is like aft
in color, but better in quality, and
is expected to fetch 50 more per
hundred weight than any other vari-
ETY. cultivated in Egypt.
A recent Khedival decree has au-
thorized the creation of a depart
ment Of agriculture and the appoint
ment of director to that office.
Although no definite plans have
been formed yet as to the work of
the new administration it is believed
that 1t will have to do principally
with the control of cotton culture,
and by systematic surveillance to pre-
vent oYer-irrigation of the cotton
fields by native growers, who in the
past have retarded the maturity of
the plants by flooding the fields too
frequently. The record for the ar
rival of new cotton at the Alexan-
dria harket from the knowing dis
tricts was made Nov. 2 last, when
1883 bales. the largest number ev-
er received in a single day, were I'M
loaded.
The ministry of agriculture at
Constantinople has asked the Otto
man high commissioner at Cairo to
send a quantity Of Egyptian cotton
seed of the best varieties with a
view to it's being tried in Turkey

HOPE FOR SHORT MEN.
Ultra X-Rays Will Cause Small PeO-
pie to Resume Growth.


If science keeps rapping away at
discovery and invention it won't be
very long before present-day meth
DDS and customs will come in for a
radical change. One of the very
latest cries coming from the sages
OF science is that the small man is
no longer doomed to everlasting
Shortness. A new force has been
found by means of which the stunt
ed denizens of earth can be induced
10 grow to giant proportions This
startling result will not be attain
cd, as some years ago a certain Mr.
wells imagined, by eating the food
OF the GODS" but will be the result
OF future development of the X-ray.
IL IS confidently expected by inVes-
ugators that one of the ultra X-rays
VIII be found to possess the magical
property that will make small peO-
PIE grow. The first tentative results
IN this direction have been obtained
by a well known experimental sci
enlist
Though it is not within the pow
er OF the scientist yet" he said, to

covered that there is some force or
other in the ultra X-rays which has

CHINESE DYING LIKE FLIES
WHOLE FAMILIES LIE DEAD IN
THEIR HOMES.
Plague Stalks in Manchuria, and
Bodies of Victims Are Being
Buried in Trenches.

PEKIN.-Reports from Hardin
say Chinese there are vigorously OPP
posing the summary disposition of
the bodies of those who have died
from the bubonic plague. The au-
thorities do not dare to burn them,
the people desiring that they remain
intact so that their ancestors may
recognize them in the future life.
They also oppose the burning of
houses, though some of them contain
the bodies of entire families. Some
of the corpses have remained in the
city for days, but they are now being
taken to the open country, where
trenches for their interment have
been prepared.
1t is reported that the Russians
in Hardin are not concerning them
selves with the Chinese section, al
though they are dealing drastically
with the Chinese within the Russian
city. The Chinese newspapers are
raising an outcry and bringing for
ward serious charges of persecution
and burial alive Members of the
legations, who constantly recon-
mend measures to the government,
are suggesting a censorship of the
press.
The plague is of a very virulent
type. Death usually occurs within
IS hours, and not more than one per
cent of the cases have ended in re
covery. DR.. G. E. Mesney, a French
physician who gave himself up to
the work of combating the, disease,
died heroically. When he realized
he was attacked by the plague he
isolated himself in a room in his
hotel drafted his will and wrote
farewell letters He begged his
friends not to notify his wife of his
illness and died alone.
Already the doctors recognize the
hopelessness of attending to those
stricken, and they are devoting
their energies to fighting the spread
of the contamination.

JUDGE AMAZED BY STORY
Man Who Stole Many Thousands
Robbed Employees to Finance
Religious Mission.

LONDON. - Augustus Williams
Finch, London manager for Phelps,
Dodge & Co., metal merchants, New
York, has been sentenced to twelve
months Imprisonment for embez-
zling S133,050 of the firms money.
Finch's defense was an eXtraOrdi-
nary one. He declared that he spec
ulated in copper with the firms mon
ey, not for his own or his family's
profit, but to provide funds to carry
on a religious mission for boys which
he had founded and for years financ-
ed. He lived most frugally he said,
his dinner consisting only of bread
and cheese, while his family benefit
ed nothing from his $4,000 salary,
the bulk of which was also swallow
ed up in his mission work.
Finchs statement, on inVestiga-
ton, had proved correct, and the
firms representative here pleaded
with the court for the utmost leni-
ency for him, saying that the firm
thought nothing of the money lost
compared TO the shock their conf
dence had sustained by this dishon-
esty on the part of an employe in
whom they had felt unbOunded
trust
The court said that the case pre-
scented two unique features-the
proved motive of the crime and the
extraordinary forgiveness displayed
by the American firm so heavily de-
frauded.

George Woodruff, an American

clares that for genuine wickedness
they are outclassed by Irkutsk.

proDES A BOMB IN ATLANTA.
.InaoIfnq of Subscription List

The Journal Editor and Other EN-
,Ioves Charged With Conspiring
- Defraud Government Out of
r.rre Sums. Use of False List of
subscribers.
,TT,ANTA.-The federal grand
lew, exploded the first boom today
~ +ba investigation of alleged irreg-
.,rorities in the second-class mail
,,o+tar here when indictments were
rernrned against James R. Gray, ed
..or and general manager; John D
cfnmons. circulation manager, GHd
~ Babb and V. P. Harper, two
,,,,.Ioves of the circulation depart
mani of the Atlanta Journal, as well
os the Atlanta Journal Company l.
Golf The indictment charges them
,.;+h conspiracy to defraud the gov
eminent "of divers large sums of
money
IT is charged by the government
that these defendants We're response
HE for having conspired to defraud
+ha government out of large sums
of money by sending large numbers
af comics of the Journals many
as a 600 copies at an issue-tO per-
sons who were not subscribers, and
which under the law, were not en-
titled TO the newspaper subscribers
rate of postage of one cent per
pound.
II is further charged that in order
to deceive the postOffice officials,
should they examine the records of
rha Journal, the names of the peo
nile to whom these copies were sent,
though they were not subscribers to
the Journal, were entered upon the
circulation records of the Journal
company as subscriptions 'recelV-
ed" and then after the mailing of
these issues practically all of the
names which had been added would
be- removed from their records as
discontinued, the operation being
done in three or four days.
In the list of specific overt acts
alleged in the true bill are given
several instances like that outlined,
the first one mentioned involving an
issue of October, 1908, the names
having been entered as received
on October 9, 1908, the paper mail
ed on that date and the names re-
moved as discontinued" on October
10, or four days later.
The seriousness of the charge
against those indicted may be gath
cred when the fact is recited that
conviction on a charge of conspiracy
to defraud the government is pun
ishable by Imprisonment in the Unit
ed States penitentiary of not more
than two years, or a fine of not more
than $4,000, or both.
1t is also charged in the indict-
ment that the Journal used padded
or false mailing lists in order to
deceive inspectors sent to examine
its circulation. The indictments
caused a sensation here. Just what
further sensations will be sprung in
the grand jury's investigations is not
known, but it is said others of even
greater magnitude are coming be-
fore the probe ends.
1t is said that the amount involved
in the fraud alleged is about 81 500.
The Evening Journal this afternoon
states that only the semi-weekly is
involved, and that the indictment in
no way concerns the daily or Sun
day Journal, and declares that none
of the indicted persons were called
before the grand jury.
Each of the defendants has given
bond in the sum of $1,000, and
the cases have been set for trial on
January Goth.
