among the best kind of literature the

bring excellent returns.

by the ovation given him was attested
by the manner in which he thanked
the Spokane chamber of commerce,
through it representative, F. w. De-
vert, for the magnificent loving cup
presented in appreciation of his work
and later when he attempted to ex-
press his gratitude for the gold watch
and chain, present from Spokane
friends and boosters of the Wenatchee
valley" The foregoing from the We
natchee World tells of the tribute

Record i'm Loading Freight

Frank Lowther of Mob Hill recent
ly made a record, putting up a car
load of apples, which will probably
stand for some time. With four
pickers, four sorters, six packers and
two nailers, he put up carload of
Peewaukee apples on the old Noting
ham ranch in one day at cost of
approximately 231A cents per box.
This probably is the cheapest carload
of apples ever heretofore put UP here
in the Yakima valley. One of the
packers put up las boxes of these APP
Piles in 10 hours, each and every box
being a perfect pack. This, too, es-
tablishes new record so far as we
can learn.

Chance for Winter Labor

That the Milwaukee railroad will
fill in all bridges and trestles on the
line between Kittitas and Boyis,on
during the winter months is a rumo:
that has been circulating here for
several days. Seveal contractors who
have handled large Milwaukee jobs
have been in this vicinity recently,
and it is expected that the contract
for the work will be let shortly. The
bridges from Boylston TO the Colwn-
bia river were filled two years ago
and part of the bridges batW cen
<ittitas and .Boylston were fllled n
year ago last spring. A large force
would be employed in the work.

That there has been grown peaches
in the Selah valley that are the peers
of peaches produced anywhere in the

reappeared shortly afterwards a brig

What You Eat in Apples

Do you know what you are eating
when you eat an apple? No. not the
sorts and varieties of worms, for
there will be no worms if you have
bought your fruit from an orchard
list who sprays his trees.
You are eating mallic acid
the property that makes buttermilk
so healthful, says National Horticul,
turist. You are eating gallic acid,
one of the most necessary elements
sugar in the most assimiable form,
combined crabon, hydrogen and oxy-
gen caught and imprisoned from the
sunshine. You are eating albumen in
its most available state. You are eat
ing gum allied to the fragrant me-
dcinal gums of Araby." And you
are eating PHOSPHORUS in the only
form in which it is available as the
source of all brain and nerve energy.
In addition to all these, you are
drinking the purest of water and eat
ing the most healthful and desirable
fiber for the required ''roughness" in
food elements The acids of the APP
pie diminish the acidity of the stom-
Iach and prevent and cure dyspepsia.
They drive out the noxious matters
that cause skin eruptions and thus
are natures most glorious complex
ion makers. They neutralize in the
blood the deleterious elements that
poison the brain and make it slug
gish. The contained PHOSPHORUS is
not only greater than in any other
form of food. but it Is presented in a
shape for immediate use by the brain
and nerves, where it may flash into
great thoughts and great deeds. The
ancients assigned the apple as tie
food for the gods. and its juices the
ambrosial nectar to which they re-
sorted 20 renew their youth. Men are
the gods of today, and the apple is
their royal food, the magic remover
of youth. Eat rich, ripe apple
every day and you have disarmed all
diseases of half their terror.

stated yesterday that Yakima will
pay slightly more state taxes next

equalized, including railroads, at s35-,
629,7S6, against s35.256,009 last year.
