Reasons why you should learn to read
your meter are being published 10 the
papers considerably now, apparently
with the approval of the companies
which furnish the stuff that moves the
meters, even IL not directly inspired by
them. Which leads to the observation
that the way meters have been made and
put in has generally been designed to
discourage reading them. Some of
them, especially in recent years, are
made so that any one may know what
they signify; but others are complicated

GOLD FROM ALASKA

ton of virgin gold from the rich
new fields of the Klondyke. and start
ing the great gold rush which gave
the first impetus to Seattle's growth
and prosperity. On July II, 1911,
Seattle will inaugnrate an annual
carnival to celebrate the gift of gold,
the celebration to be called the
Golden Potlatch, 49," and to con-
sist of a week of pageantry and mer-
ry making in which the whole city
will take part. The name and gen.
eral nature of the festival were de-
cided upon by committee of lead
ing citizens early TINS week and the
details of the big carnival are in the
hands of several COMMITTEES, while
the whole city is subscribing funds
for the event by purchasing official
buttons.
The name Golden Potlatch '97''
is derived from the old Chinook word,
potlatch, which meant to give, or as
noun, festival of giving. The
Seattle carnival might have been

YAKIMA BUILDING &
INVESTMENT COMPANY
Is Name of a New Organization
Which Is to Work on Coop
erative and Investment Plan

Yakima Building & Investm emit
company is the name of a new cor
poration, the articles of which have
been filed with the secretary of state
and the auditor of Yakima county.
The capital stock is $4,000 in shares
of 500 each and the company is
already doing business at its offices,
rooms and 10 Ward building. The
particular appeal of the organization
is made to people who are in posi-
ton to save $40 per month and these
are asked to inquire of any of the
stockholders as to the plans and
methods of the company.
Co-Operatrve Plan
The company is organized on the
c operative and investment plan for
the purpose, primarily, of buying and
building upon business property in
the city of North Yakima, either for
an investment for the income or to
sell at profit for the purpose of re-
investing the proceeds of sale. 1t IS
also for the purpose of lending it's
idle money and that OF it's stockhold-
ers and others on first class real es-
tate security and to receive interest
and commissions in said BUSINESS
Saving Small Amounts
The idea upon which the organi-
cation is founded is to get a large
number of persons working together
for the saving of small amounts and
the investment of the aggregate OF
such savings. To that end no person
can own in his own right more than
ten shares of the par value of 500
per share. No subscription will be
accepted for less than five shares to
the end that there will be about 100
stockholders of the 500 shares of cap
ital stock aggregating $4,000 The
stock is paid for at the rate of 81
per share per month.
The trustees to serve for the first
six months are j. II. Carstens Roy
Fl. Warwick, George r. Harrison G
NJ Hafenbrack, and %. V. Morthland

organization are George n. Tuesley
! s H Dickinson, G. L. Slasor, ]. w

YAKIMA COUNTRY IS
GREAT FOR APPLES
Old Gentleman From Minneapolis
Wakes Eloquent When Tell
ing of What He Saw

North Yakima Is a beautiful city
of 5000 Inhabitants in the midst of
the greatest fruit growing country in
the world. Here they raise nearly
everything in the fruit line raised in
California. Following are some of the
kinds of fruit raised: Apples, peach es,
pears, cherries, apricots, pIams
prunes, nectarines and may others.

the fruit orchard of Doctor Gray first
He has ls apple trees, twelve years
old, End so trees five years and six
years old. The latter are all bear
ing this year for the first time Then
he has $50 that are three years old.
and ia, four year old
Peach trees are nearly all bearing
this year and from some of them the
doctor picked eight to ten boxes. One
hundred and ten of them are the fam

ever saw in my life. They were de-
licious to look at and more so to eat.
picked fresh and ripe from the trees.
he also has one acre of rawberries.
II have just helped him pick the
apples from three Of his twelve year
old trees. They are the Rhode Island
Greetings. One tree we picked thirty
one bushel boxes FROM another
twenty-six bushels and the third
twenty-five bushels, making eighty
two bushel boxes from the three trees
and the finest apples ever sent TO any
market. Many of them measure
twenty-five inches around and weigh
SIXTEEN to seventeen ounces. The doe
tor has other trees that will yield as
well. Among them are the Bell
Flowers and Black Twigg.
Mr. Editor. you may think this a
big story, but | can vouch for the
truth of it, as l helped to pick them,
eastern and middle states, but never
saw anything to compare with the
apples and trees that they have here.
Many of these old trees look like an
umbrella inverted. limbs 15 to 16
feet long hang down and the tops
touch the ground, they are so loaded
with apples. Two gentleman and lad
les We're here yesterday from the APP
pie belt in Michigan looking over the
orchard. They were delighted
and overojyed. They had seen pic
ture cards, with cuts describing the
fruit in this wonderful country, and
believed it fake. With their own
eyes to see. they declared the halt
had never been told. Their declara-
ton. 1T is the most wonderful scene
their eyes eve + looked upon"
Central Washington is the wonder
of the world for fine fruit. AS a sam
pie Of this fact an Englishman from
London, England, was in the Yakima
valley few days ago and bought two
hundred car loads of their finest APP
pies and shipped them to London.
Apples are all packed in bushe
boxes averaging $50 bushels to TIL,
car. making 10000 bushels from thi
locality of the finest apples ever seer
in the world and not one apple il
one thousand that has worm in it,
The foregoing is part of a lette
written last fall by p @. Boyden, o

to his old home paper in Indiana.

rich and cultured? The reason why
l am Socialist is just here.
II would take. not by force, but
by the slow process of lawful acquisi-
ton. through better legislation as the
outcome of a wiser ballot in the
hands of men and women. the entire
plant that we call civilization, all
th>t has been achieved on this con-
tinent since Columbus wendell his
way hither and made it the common
property 0 all the people, requiring
all to give work enough with their
hands to give the finest physical de-
volopment, but not to become bur-
densome in any case, and permitting
all to share alike in the advantages
of education and refinement. l be
lieve this to be perfectly practicable;
indeed, that any other method IS
merely relic of barbarism.
II believe that competition is
doom d. The trusts, whose single OBJ
ject is to abolish competition, have
proved that We are better without
it than with it. the moment corpora
lions control the supply of any pro-
duct they combine. What the So
cialists desire is that the corporation
of humanity should control all pro-
duction. Beloved comrades, this Is
the frictionless way; it eliminates
the motives for a selfish life; it en-
acts into our everyday life the ethics
of Christ's gospel. Nothing else will
do it; nothing else can bring the
81 d day of universal brotherhood.
"Oh, that l were young again. So
