Yakima and WenatChee Fruit Growers
Association May Combine

If the plans of those who are work
ing toward the consolidation of the
fruit growers association of this valley
and Yakima and possibly Hood river,
Oregon are accepted by the respective
districts and one big association formed
there is no question but what much
mutual good will result from such an
organization. While as yet no definite
plans have been made, those who are
fathering the movement claim that il
is only question Of short time until
the various fruit districts Of the state
will combine.
The competition between the differ
ent fruit sections of the state is very
keen and if such an organization is
formed it would tend to better under
standing and closer working relations
to the material advantage of all the
fruit growers turnout the state.

LARGE BRICK BLOCK
FOR COMMERCIAL STREET
Weigand Buys Lot Corner Commercial
and Ninth Streets-Wll T 1t up
Brick Block 60x105

Paul Weigand, one of our progress
sive citizens, who says a lazy dollar
never brings back an income, closed
a trade last Friday with Gus Nelson
for two lots on the corner OF Eighth
and Commercial streets, directly back
of the Losekamp building, and says he
will erect brick building thereon as
early next spring as building operations
can begin. He says if it was not SC
late, or rather, if he had gotten hold o.
the lots sixty days earlier he would
have begun building this fall. He says
he will put up the best building that
has yet been built in Leavenworth.
The building will be the full size Of
the lots, 6Ox105, with nine foot
basement, and two or three stories IN
height. There will be 135 feet Of

Ship "a Carloads of Apples in One Day

The biggest one days shipment Of
apples that has left the Wenatchee
valley so far this season was shipped
from Wenatchee last Saturday, when
seventy-four carloads left that city con-
signed to middle western and eastern
points. Fifty-fve carloads of the ap-
pies were raised in the vicinity OF We
natchee and nineteen carloads came
from Peshastin and the Upper Wenat-
chez valley. Much talk is going
around this year to the effect that ap-
Piles are not bringing the price they
did in former years on account OF the
unusually large crop this season, but
those who are familiar with the apple
situation claim that by February and
March there will be such demand
for apples, and especially the Wenat-
chez valley apples, that the price will
even exceed that paid in the past.
The Wenatchee Valley Fruit Growers
Association are now sending most of
their apples to Chicago, St. Paul, Min
neapolis and other big eastern points,
where they will be stored until the de-
mand for them several months from
now. Most of the big apple growers
turnout the valley have become mem
bers of the association and the old time
fruit buyers who have visited the val
ley for many years find little consola-
ton now as the apples are being con-
tracted and the grower receives the
greater share Of his money for the ap-
pies upon delivery instead of waiting
for returns from the consignee.

"The Awakening of Helena Richie"

Probably the most renowned theat-
rical company that has ever visited the
Wenatchee valley will be in Wenat-
chez Friday night Oct. Is for one
nights performance, where they will
present the most famous play of recent
years The Awakening of Helena
Richie" The attraction is now being
staged at the Metropolitan Theater in
Seattle one of the leading playhouses
of that city and is drawing crowded
houses every night. Miss Roselle
Knott plays the leading role and is
described as a very beautiful and tai
ented young actress. The last time
Miss Knot came to the coast she was
leading woman for Robert Mantell.
She is supported by Henry Hall well
known actor in the theatrical world.
This play, like all problem plays or
sex dramas, has scenes that are tense,
scenes that are emotional, scenes that
are unpleasant to think over. The
central figure is woman who has
sinned rather through combination of
untoward circumstances than through
natural inclination. The four acts are
devoted to an exposition Of her sinful
state, the coming of the pure influence
of a little child into her life and her
moral redemption through the agency
Of this child.
The other play elements are the
prying neighbors who beat down Hell
ena Richie's moral alibi, the man in
the case, an excitable youth who loves
Helena to the point of attempted sui
eide and the venerable pastor whose
benediction is poured upon Helena's
repentant head as the curtain goes
down.
Seats will be on sale Oct. II, and
those intending to witness the perform
ance should phone the Wenatchee
theatre and have their seats reserved
in advance.

the Opera Bar and came out with a
package, which later proved to be a
quart of alcohol and pint of whiskey.
After seeing the package change hands
Mr.. Booth notified the deputy sheriff,
who arrested Johnson a few minutes
later. The Indians at first claimed
that they had received no liquor from
the man but when Mr.. Hamilton
started to make a search of their per-
son the squaw produced the two bot
ties OF booze from under her skirts
where she had concealed it and adj
mitted that the man under arrest was
the one who had given it to them for
which they had paid him $3.50.

The worlds championship baseball
series between New York and Boston
which is now in progress is arousing
much interest among local fans, and
from all accounts several hundred dol
lars has been wagered on the result.
The common opinion among those who
profess to know baseball is that Boston
will win out. although occasionally you
find some crank who contends that
New York has the best team. Up to
the present writing both teams have
won one game.

Camembert is the name of a com

tier and the department of Orne. The
cheese got its name from the fact that

a cheese factory nearer than three
miles away now, and not enough peo-
pie live in Camembert to run one Of
any size. Caen, the principal Camem-
bert market, is in CaIvados The

ried across the mouth OF the Seine to

Promiscuous.

The breezes kissed the gentle maid
And with her sunny hair
Romped pleasantly little while
And left her free of care.
But that's a way the breeZes have.
They do not think II wrong
To throw a kiss TO persons who
May chance to come along.
At first and rather bashful blush
A person might declare
1t would be fine to. as a breeze.
Go kissing here and there
But when one thinks about the way
1t takes them as they run
And kisses young and old and all.
That takes away the fun.
For breezes do not pick and choose
Or features closely scan.
They kiss a lot OF ones who yet
Were never kissed by man.
They get the sour and the sweet.
The pretty and the shy,
For they must take them as they come
And every one supply.
But man is such a tickle one
He wants to pick and choose
And kiss the persons that he likes.
And other ones refuse.

Some ladies would be missed.

acres of land for the purpose of rails
ing sugar cane in the Philippines, in
one tract, in defiance of the laws of
congress which prohibit the ownership
of more than $500 acres of land by
corporations. But because the Amer

WHEN COAL WAS FORMED.
Curious Condition the Earth Was In at
That Period.

Curious Condition the Earth Was In at
That Period.
What is said to be the strangest
period through which this earth has
passed is the one that was responsible
for the formation of coal. The planet
is described as being at that time Fat
and smooth as TO surface and peculiar
as to vegetation. The continents were
just beginning to rise above the ocean,
and the land had not yet become dry.
Mountain ranges had not arisen from
the swamps, and the atmosphere was
thick with fog. In this state of affairs
there sprOuted and 1ourished the
plants which were later to furnish the
world with its coal supply.
These plants grew as big as our
largest trees. taking deep root in the
moraSs and hourishing like the lush
grasses in moist meadow land, devel-
oped into the strange shapes now
found In tropic vegetation. The for
eSts looked, scientists state, ike dense
growths OF weeds. rushes and enormous
ferns. Some OF them grew IN the shape
Of cact, having spines all over them
This kind OF vegetation was very rich
in carbon, which it derived. from the
