SELLING PLAN
IS NOW NECESSARY
Wenatchee Paper Declares That
Trained Statesmen Are the
Great Essential

Regarding the Clark and Otis plans
of selling agency for Fruit some
thing of which has already appeared
in print here, the World of Wenat-
chez says that it fosters neither plan
but believes absolutely that it is
evident that different system must
be employed" / says that the North
Yakima Fruit Growers association
and the Northwest exchange both
claim to have received higher prices
ON an average than the Wenatchee
growers the past year. The World
further says:
The growers and business men
should thoroughly investigate the
merits of the two systems and unite
on some plan which will furnish a
marketing system giving better re-
turns. 1t should be borne in mind,
however, that simply getting together
and agreeing to handle the fruit in a
pool, does not provide q selling
agency. The method adopted must
have in mind trained salesman ac-
quainted with the markets Of, the
world. 1t has BEEN cited here this
fall that too much of 1.-The local fruit
goes to the East, whereas this year
markets in the west, including Alaska,
British Columbia Australia and Cali
fornia furnished very remunerative
market"

'MAN|GAL'S STORY
GOES TO THE JURY
Detail of Various Excursions Is
Thought to Have Been Told
as First of Many Gases

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. S.-Whatever
Ortie Mechanical knows about the
completely of others besides the Me-
Namaras in blowing up the more than
100 open shop structures in various
cities for the past five or six years is
believed to have been related by him
in his preliminary story before the
federal grand jury today. That the
prisoner viii be kept in attendance on
the jury at least ten DAYS OF
two weeks, is apparent from inten-
ton of Prosecutor Miller to have him
go into details regarding his relations
with others in the dynam hitting expedi-
lions.
The grand jury devoted much time
today to witnesses from Tiffin, o.,
where in April last large quantity of
dynamite was found hidden in the
barn of McManigars father. This
was one of the stores where McMani-
gal and James Mcnamara replenished
their supply when they started to
do "jobs'' in Pennsylvania, New York
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois.

WOULD CALL STRIKE
Of LARGE DIMENSIONS
Federated Shop Employees Plan
ming for Sympathetic Strike
Tying Up All Roads

SAN FRANCISCO, Jan. S.-A sym
pathetic strike of more than 300, 900
federated railroad shop employees to
be called within month and possibly
within two weeks, was prophesied to-
day by Ernest L. Requin, president of
the federated shop employees of the
Hartman lines.
The strike, he said, would include
every road in Texas, Denver ard Rio
Grande, Hill lines and possibly the
reads in the east that are members
of the General Managers association
According to Requin plans for the
strike have progressed to point
where only the formality of taking a
vote remains.
Violation of the iron-clad rule, ac-
cording to Requin, that one road must
not take rolling stock from another
unless it is in first-class condition, by
roads not involved in the strike, is
the complaint of shop employees of the
Hartman lines.

Public Service Commission In.
spector's Friends Trace Down
fall to Talk in This City
WHAT HE UTTERED HERE
POLITICALLY HARMLESS
People In This City Who Heard
Him at the Commercial Club
Cannot Understand the Diff
Guilty IN That Respect

1t was a speech delivered in North
Yakima, at the rooms of the COM
mercial club, that was in part respon-
sible for the downfall of A. w. Perley,
inspector of track and safety APP
pliances for the state public service
commission This fact will be a sur
prise to those citizens who heard MI.
Perley at the Commercial club There
was absolutely nothing objectionable
in his address and he won, by 1t, many
friends for the commission and the
work it is doing. The regret was gen
orally expressed at the time that the
citizens and those of other parts or
the state could not more frequently
hear such addresses.
Seattle Explanation
The following from a staff cores
pondent of the Seattle Times explains
itself.
"T will tell you why Perley was
canned" said George A. Lee, chair
man Of the commission, to the Times
correspondent at Olympia last night.
He had been going over the state
knocking Mr. Jones and myself in an
objectionable manner and !, for one,
would not stand for it,
"Perley was visiting North Yakima
a few days after Lees appointment
and there attended Il large public
meeting. He was one of those called
upon for an address and spoke at
length upon the good work done by
the railroad commission for the peo-
pie Of the state, both in reducing
rates and in requiring safe operation
of trains The Yakima papers paid
particular attention to this address. a
copy of one of these papers fell into
the hands of Commissioner Lee, who
on the first opportunity called Mr..
Perley on the carpet and in substance
said 4 want you to understand, Mr..
Perley, that a rule has been adopted
by this commission that hereafter no
subordinate Is to be permitted to
make public addresses on the work of
the commission
Helped Commission
The foregoing was shown Monday
to a prominent citizen who was pres
ent at the Commercial club meeting
who said with regard to it. If there
has been any knocking by MIR. Perley
it certainly has been done very quiet
ly His address here was surprise
and a delight to his hearers as any
one who was present will tell you. He
demanded and won respect for the
commission, achieved for it a greater
understanding on the part of this
community than it has ever had be-
fore and left strong impression that
1t is doing good work and is doing it
right. He advocated the cause in A
mastery manner and showed the
merit of the efforts made and the
measure of success accomplished. He
distinctly said that he was speaking,
not as a member of the commission,
but as one posted as to the excellent
work it is doing and he placed the
commission on higher pedestal be-
fore the public here than it had ever
before enjoyed If his Yakima speech
hurt him, then certainly politics is a
strange thing"

I.arlxs Save Money
1t has been estimated that meadow
larks save twenty-five dollars worth
o. hay in every ordinary township in
the United States by their destruction
of grass ho2pers. locust( cutworms
and army worms. The birds most
greedy for weed seeds of agricultural
and waste lands are the various spe-
cies of native sparrows, finches, jun
cos, buntings, black birds, COW birds,
doves, quail and other gallinacious
species. 1t is said that the tree SPAR
row will eat in one state alone dur
ing a single winter nearly 100000
pounds of weed seed. A Maryland
bird specialist believes that the wild
sparrows are of greater value to ag-
riculture than any other group of
birds.
Are Good Workers
Many of the song birds are coming
into Yakima now, though the time is
not SO far past when they were rare
indeed. 1t seems to be the belief

turists that IL given the right sort of
treatment, they will pay their way
many times over, ding work which in

that spraying can be dispensed with.
but a moderate number of sprays,
with the birds as auxiliaries, can keep
the pests in check, where spraying
without their aid, would, in time, be-
come an almost herculean task, es-
pecially in view of the fact that there
are 176 species of,finspect pests to
