TENNESSEE GROCER
BELIEVES IN ADVERTISING

An advertising feat of particular
interest to newspaper publishers and
advertisers not only remarkable for
it's size but for its clean contents eX-
pressive of the sentiment that "There
is something better than making a
living-making a life" was put over
by Mr.. Bowers, a local grocer of
Memphis, Tenn, advertising his 80
stores. called Temples of Economy"
and appearing in the May 9Th issue
of the Memphis Press.
The advertisement covered six and
one-half pages. which is gong some,
in one issue.
Mr.. Bowers is we'll known to many
publishers of great metropolitan
newspapers His recent fight against
the fixed-minimum-p -prlce-plan of
manufacturers of food products was
the subject of many editorials In
great newspapers. He carried this
fight direct to congress and only
dropped it when the supreme court
last month handed down an opinion
upon the point it issue which estab-
lished the right Of a retailer to sell
goods at his own price. The bill
which Mr.. Bowers had introduced at
Washington made him known to
hundreds Of newspapermen, congress
men and to men Of large affairs who
were vitality interested in the point
fought for as no other man has ever
fought. But to the publication and
advertising world in particular his
latest advertising feat is interesting

BRIEF BREEZY NOTES
ABOUT ECHO PEOPLE
Especial Correspondence

Echo, Ore, May 25.-The young
man from one Of our neighboring
towns who got too much circus while
here last week and broke a large
window in one of the stores, was ar
rested yesterday and tried before
Justice Scholl. He escaped with the
light fine of $40 and costs. To the
young mans credit he voluntarily
agreed to replace the window which
costs $3.50, which accounts for the
minimum fine.
The funeral of H. c. Thomson was
held here yesterday at 1880 p. m.
from the NJ. E. church. The services
, were conducted by Rev. Reese of
Milton. The remains were laid to rest
in the l. o. o. F. cemetery. The
funeral was largely attended as he
was we'll and favorably known.
The splendid rains continue in this
section much to the joy of the farm
ers and everyone for it means thous-
ands of bushels of grain as fell as

BEWARE FAKE TREE DOCTORS
Frauds Perpetrated by Men Using
Agricultural College as Reference.


Corvallis, Ore.-Frauds are being
perpetrated in several parts of the
state by men who give as their ref
erences the names of professors at
the state agricultural college, with
out authority. one claims preposter-
Gus things in the way of curing apple
trees of anthracknose and protecting
them from the codling moth by apply
ing chemicals to the roots. Another
is offering a premium with subscrip-
tions to a paper, which turns out to
be a fake.
Dean A. B. Cordey of the agricul-
tural school, has received a letter
from a farmer near Tuolitin, asking
is he game his endorsement to such
men. The letter says:
"a man named Saunder claims to
have a treatment whereby he renders
trees immune from diseases by the
application of some chemicals to the
! roots, especially apple trees. He
claims that they will be cured of an
| thracknose, and that the codling moth
will not bother such trees for six
years, and that no spraying is requir-
| ed on treated trees, other than a light
spray of concentrated lye once ever
| two or three years, to keep moss off
| the trees. Mr.. Saunder gave me the
name of Prof. Cordley as reference,
so l ask the college to give me its
| opinion. l regard this fellow as a
fraud, pure and simple, and in or
der to protect my neighbors from his
| operations 1 have written to the col
lege."
81 know nothing whatever of him,
Dean Cordley replied, land if l should
give my testimony in the case, il
would be to the effect that any man
who claims to be able to render trees
| immune from the attacks of the cod
ling moth anthracknose and other
fungus diseases by an application OF
certain chemicals to the roots OF
trees. is a fraud"
Another letter from Lebanon
| states that young man claiming to
| be connected with the college is TAX
| ing subscriptions for a paper and Of
fering a premium, which turned out
later to be a fraud. Dean Cordley
has issued a statement that there is
| no such person connected with the in
| stitution, and that he Is evidently
rading upon the popularity and rep
utation of the college to make smooth
the way for his fraud.

TO HOLD CAUCUS ON TARIFF
House Democrats May Take Up
Revision Before Reciprocity.
From The Tribune Bureau.

Washington, April THE Democratic
leaders OF the House decided to-day to hold
another caucus early next week 10 deter
mine whether the Canadian reciprocity
agreement or tariff legislation shall be first
considered and reported by the Ways ana
Means Committee.
Representative Underwood and others
who are 70 run the Democratic machinery
decided that instead of leaving this ques-
ton to the discretion OF the members OF
the Ways and Means Committee a better
plan would be TO hold family council as
there seems 10 be some difference OF opin-
ion as 10 Just how the Democrats shall pro-
ceed with tariff revision.
t-p 10 this time il had been understood
that the plan of the House leaders was TO
give attention first 10 the wool and cotton
schedules. holding Canadian reciprocity
back lest the Republican Senate might not
approve the Democratic method Of slsshing
tariff schedules In other words the Demo
cratic plan contemplates making club OF
the Presidents reciprocity agreement. to
secure the passage Of which he called Con-
gress in extra session. II the Senate de-
clned 70 act on the wool. cotton and other
schedules as they were sent over from the
House the lower body would refuse % pass
reciprocity.
The Democrats, however. are anxious 10
appear harmonious before the country. and
rather than face possible dissensiOn in their
own ranks over the decision OF the Ways
and Means Committee members the House
leaders decided that everybody ought TO be
invited 10 a caucus. there TO decide the fate
of reciprocity and the wool and other sched-
ules
II NAV Dc that the Democrats VIII de-
termlne TO play an open game and viii turn
their attention first 10 the reciprocity agree
ment, thus recognizing the spirit which
moved Mr. Taft 10 call an extra session.
on the other hand, il is more probable that
the original idea 10 hold reciprocity as a
hostage will prove too great temptation
and the Democrats probably viii begin first
on a popgun revision OF the tariff.
The date for the caucus has not been def
nitely announced, but it will be held early
next week. Immediately following the for
mai election Of the Ways and Means ana
other House committees.
