How to Keep Roses Fresh.

Proper care Of cut flowers will double
their lease of life. Even dollhouse
roses, usually the shortest lived of bios
SONS, can be made to retain their
beauty and fragrance for two weeks If
one will take the trouble to boil the
stems. To do this set pan of hot wa
ter on the stove and when the water
begins to boil place the stems of the
flowers in the water to the depth Of
one inch. Hold the flowers carefully to
prevent their touching the sides or bot
tom Of the pan. Allow them to boil fif-
teen or twenty minutes. Remove the
flowers and clip off the portions of thD
stems that were in the water. They
are then ready to be arranged in the
vase or bowl. Many persons have poor
success in keeping cut flowers because
they do not put fresh water into flower
vases every day. The stems Of the
flowers should he clipped every day tC
enable them to take up more water
Never leave cut flowers in warm
room overnight. Set them in a COO
place.-Kansas Industrialist.

Many thousand trees, including the

or some agreement as to hay prices is

Delegates from all parts Of the val

and the hay question il to be thor
oughly discussed.
Some ranchers in the neighborhood
of Toppenish, although no meeting has
been held to discuss the situation AZ
yet, are holding hay for $40 per ton
for first grade and about $3.50 to So
for second grade Few buyers have
been found at those prices and some
of the growers have taken as low as
So per ton for their first cutting. It
is now estimated that there will be
rs, 900 to 80, 600 tons of hay on the
Yakima Indian reservation, a consid-
cradle decrease from that of 1912,
while the increase in dairying and
stock on the reservation will mean
considerable local consumption, the
hay growers say.

6attIeSnlp fIeet.
Washington, D. CA serious split
in the Democratic organization of the
house of representatives is threatened
as a result of the action of the party
caucus in declaring against additions
to the battleship fleet. The prediction
is made that before many days have
passed Speaker Clark and Leader I'm
derwood will be fighting one another
out in the open.
Speaker Clark voted against the
battleship programme. Leader I'm
derwood voted in favor Of ::battleships.
The charge is made by the Demo-
Gratis that Mr.. Clark, angered by the
failure of Mr.. Underwood to support
Mr.. Clark in the Baltimore conven-
ton, has decided to join issues with
the majority leader.
The Democrats who favor navy adj
ditions, charge that the speaker some
weeks ago, promised to gives his sup
port to an amendment to the naval bill
authorizing one battleship.

Wenatchee Commercial Club Goes
After Fake Realty Brokers.
Wenatchee - "Fly-by-night" real
estate brokers operating near Malaga
in the Wenatchee valley have recently
handed out scores Of "gold bricks" to
land spectators in Oregon and other
Northwest states. Action will be
brought at once, in the interest Of the
good name Of the Wenatchee valley
against the alleged fake operators.
Instead of sthigh-class orchard land.
under the ditch, and possible of great
wealth production" investors are
awakening to the disheartening reality
that they have paid their hard earned
cash for precipitous and barren noun
tain land, incapable Of producing any
thing save quarry rock, pine squirrels
and stunted timber.
The land, described as located in
section 8. township Fl north, range
Fl east, Willamette Meridian, is re-
ported to have sold for as high as $500
an acre. None of the scores Of unwary
investors had ever seen the land, de-
pending on the integrity of the realty
dealers to "get them in right. !"
Commercial organizations will take
immediate action in an effort to stop
the fake operations.
