and most complete outfit of kitchen
utensils but that will not make her
a good cook"
Introduced by Mayor Schott
Col. Roosevelt was introduced to
the Yakima assembly which gathered
to hear him by Mayor H. H. Schott,
who with III. C. Lucas of the Com
mercial club accompanied him from
Ellensburg. He is travelling over the
Northern Pacific railway in this Sec
ton as the guest Of Vice President
HI. c. Mutt and is accompanied in
this state by his secretary, Frank
Harper by w. J. Simpson of the AS
ISOLATED Press and by correspondents
of the papers of the state and by
Senator Poindexter.
Visited by Delegations
While here the former presidents
car was visited by several delegations
One consisted of Messrs. B. F. Barge,
Fl. VI. Gilbert and w. l. Huxtable who
represented the Y. M. c. A. They
were accompanied by Secretary Pat
terson, the association secretary. An
other delegation consisted of Mrs.
Josephine Parker of Toppenish and
her daughter, Miss Maude Lille.
They are old personal friends of
Senator Poindexter. who is accom-
panylng Mr.. Roosevelt across this
state, and were by him introduced ia
the former president who was de-
lighted to meet them, recognizing in
them real Americans both of the
ladies having Indian blood in their
veins.
Apples From .. w. r. & N.
Still another delegation consisted
of c. Fl. Furman of Zillah, who repre-
santed his town and who extended
it's greetings. Chief Engineer Pit
man of the North Coast railway COM
panv, acting in behalf of the o. w.
r. Il n. railway, waited upon Mr.
Roosevelt in his car and presented
several one tier boxes of apples with
the compliments of that company.
Several attempts were made to get
the former president into a hand
shaking contest but these he prom pit
ly and respectfully declined. To the
owner of the first hand reached out
to him he explained that he desired
to avoid such a proceeding as if he
so recognized a comrade imme diately
500 other hands would be stretched
forth and he would be in trouble
that would prevent his speechmaking.
This was sufficient but it was neces-
sary for Col. Roosevelt to warn a
man OF two from the rear of his car
when he thought the crowd was
pressing too close and was anxious
to come at him from all sides. Be-
cause of the manner in which the
crowd was divided on each side OF
the track two addresses were delivered
but they were alike in form and sub
stance.
Gathering at Il Street
Ample space had been left by the
railway officials in the yard for the
crowd to assemble and in addition the
car containing the guest was cut off
from the train at the B street inter-
section so that there was ample
room there for carriages, automobiles
etc. The fact that freight train was
run back and forth through the
crowd was the only feature Of the
day that caused any uneasiness. The
trainhands, however, were very care
full. Women and children formed a
very large proportion Of the crowd
which assembled.

There is nothing the matter with
the golden voice, but the owner is
suffering from a severe attack of
fear, which, according to psycholo''
gists, is more deadly than colds or
sore throat. 1t is stated on the best
authority that Caruso has refused to
sing solely because he has been told
by q fortune teller that he is to meet
with some injury, possibly fatal, on
the stage in an opera in which shoot
ing or stabbing occurs.
The most popular operas in which
the tenor appears in the present
repertoire repict either shooting or
stabbing of the leading character an |
it is generally the tenor who Is

company of soldiers. Another part
in which Caruso has delighted many

The reclamation policy of the admin
istration has had it's chief claim to
support, in my mind, in the fact that
it was intended to bring about a
settlement of the country. If the
work had not been taken up by the
government then, inasmuch as no
single individual could have carried
it through, necessarily some great
corporation would have done the
work and would have had complete
control.

subjects upon which Col. Roosevelt
talked while here. He told how the
federal government had taken hold
of reclamation work in the interests
of the small farmer. THE home pro-
ducer. He told his hearers that it is
necessary to develop the land, not to
skin it. He pointed out that 1t is
necessary to have in the administra-
ton of pubic laws the very best men.
and he declared that the children are
after all the best product of any coun-
try. He said these things carefully
and plainly, forcing home to the at
tention of his hearers, directly. mat
ters on which he has been addressing
the public of the country for a con-
siderable period. 1t was the fact that
he was talking his views directly to
his audience here that made the
speech interesting to local people.
Among other things Col. Roosevelt
said:
Work FOR Average Man
"One of the things of which 1 was
most proud when l was president was
the aid and support given by the ad.
ministration to irrigation, especially
that the reclamation law and it's de-.
velopment were. like the old home
stead law. in the interests of the far
mer. 1t was my desire that irriga-
ton development should be under
taken by the government and not by
great corporations as had the cor
porations taken over the work that
would have meant an undue control
of the great natural resources. and
the alternative was to do what we
did. The work was undertaken by
the government in the interests of
the average man.

try must be the making of good
American citizens. self respecting,
self supporting men, upon whom the
country can rely and depend in times
of peace as well as in times of war.

IS REPORTED
Fruit Men Agree That the Heaters

Far This Season
EXPERTS ARE IN DOUBT
ON SOME POINTS THOUGH
And Are Unable to Agree as to
Conditions This Side of Union
Gap, Where the Smudges Are
Not Given a Trial

Up to Monday afternoon little dam
age had been done to fruit in the
orchards below Union Gap where the
heaters have been used Just what
damage had been done above the gan
where heaters are not used was q
debatable question. Some of the grow
ers contended that there was little
soft fruit left to develop on the trees
of the orchard below the level OF
the Hubbard ditch. Others contend
ed that the damage, such as it was,
had been confined to the sweet cher
ries and a few other fruits of that
kind and some little damage to the
peaches but not sufficient to make a
loss below a good normal crop.
Parker Bottom All Right
f. e. Thompson was through the
Parker Bottom orchards Sunday and
said that he found but one, consisting
of some IS acres, where the peaches
had been destroyed In all the other
orchards. and he had been through
practically all of them, good yield
was certain unless further trouble
eventuated II. o. Morrison, who had
been through the w. p. Sawyer and
other orchard, confirmed this report
]. NJ. Brown former fruit commits
sioner. who was at Prosser Sunday,
went through the orchards there and.
as a result of his inspection reported
upon his return to this city that ne
found a crop of between fifty and
fifty-six per cent on the peach trees.
OF course the sweet cherries were
badly injured but pears and apples
were all right. The same was true
in the Grandview section. according
to w. n. Irish who also said that in
the Grandview section of North Yak
ina visited by him he had found
sufficient crop to date.
City Toll Stands Up
H. p James, secretary Of the Com
mercial club, said he had not inspect
ed his orchard but that he had a
fruit tree, a peach, in his back yard
in the city which he had been watch
ing and up to O'Clock last night 1t
has as many good peach blossoms on
it as any decent. well behaved city
tree should have.
The result of inquiry, therefore, IS
that up to last night the fruit was
safe where heaters had been used
and where they had not. the experts
disagreed.

II has been known during a long
time that in western Europe man ex-
listed during the glacial epoch. We
now know that the great ice age con-
sisted of different glacial times sepa.

times the snow line dropped 5000 or
1000 feet below it's present level in
the Alps. whereas in interglacial times
1t lay about 1000 feet higher than at
present Thus the temperature seems
to have been higher in the interglacial
periods than it is now
There is abundant evidence. in the
opinion of Penck. that man existed du-
ring the beginning of the last glacial
epoch. There is some reason for
thinking that at least 10000 years
have elapsed since the last glaciation

POULTRY ON AVERAGE FARM
Makes No Great Demands on Strength
and Any Person Of intelligence
Msy Mako Success.

In this country poultry includes
chickens. turkeys. geese, ducks. gull
nea fowls, pigeons and occasionally
pea fowls. pheasants, quail aud
swans-chickens, of course, being the
most important. Something like
quarter OF billion chickens and other
poultry are consumed in the United
States every year. The consumption
of eggs is about eighteen dozen per
capita. The last census gave the
value of chickens raised on American
farms in 1899 as 1896, 1891, S77-of eggs
as $144,2S6,15S. Today the American
people consume about half billion
dollars worth Of poultry and eggs
per annum. Exports are increasing
poultry and eggs with little fear OF
not realizing good prices on all pro-
duce.
Probably 90 per cent. of the farms
in the United States raise poultry as
side line; feeding is more econom
ical where general farming is pur.
sued. Still there are manifest ad-
vantages in pecializing-greater at
tention, knowledge and skill achieve
better results.
Poultry raising makes no great de-
mands on strength. and any person
OF intelligence may hope to make a
success OF 1t. But some have made
the mistake OF supposing that the
business can be taken up on a con-
siderable scale without any expert
ence. Hens lay all the way from
none to $50 eggs year. and 1t takes
some experience to tell with what
kind OF hens and under what condi-
tons, the upper limit can be reached.
Probably the best course for the
intending poultry raiser would be to
work for year or more on one of
the large chicken ranches in order to
learn the important points of breeds,
feeding, fattening, housing, brooding,
incubating, etc. The raising of broil-
ers, roasters and capons for the market
may be paying occupation on an
egg farm, If one secures the right kind
of stock and gives the work the
proper attention and management. No
kind of poultry is more profitable
than turkeys
