There, crawling from beneath an empty barrel set forth by one of the many restaurants along the lane, his face and hair generously streaked with a covering of flour talk en on in his place of refuge, came a boy not much larger than Billy him. self-one of the circle of former "crap shooters.'
 T say, Billy ain't done nothin'. He warn't shootln' with the bunch. The last see of Billy he was settin' there eatin' his handout. Weren't you, Billy?" Billy nodded complacent- ly Yer pinchin', o innocent man, boss; straight goods.

 "Ea. ! can't do that for you; I can't let either of you off," ho said, at last "Tou know right from wrong and-ah. here comes the sergeant- we'll let him settle it."
 Billy shrank closer to his champion as he felt his own tiny atom Of self completely overshadowc1 by this for midabla giant with shining buttons and cLevrons. The contact lent the interces8or strength for @ final appeal
 Sergeant, can I speak to you for Billy? I don't mind for myself, but Billy just can't go to the lookup"
 Nervously the chud's fingers locked and iuterlocked, but his gaze met that of the stalwart officer of the law un- dInchingiy. Breathlessly, he rushed on
 "Billy's mother is home sick in bed. She's what you call an invalid. Some times she can work and help out and sometimes Billy's got to do it all him self cause .he ain't got no brothers nor sisters, nor no father-just his mother So we fellers found him good stand up in tho square, but he sant run after trade since he's lost his leg.

 Billy tried to grasp the significance of this sudden bestowal of responsibil. ity and bowed bewildered approval.

 About this game of crap-Billy's business hasn't been rushing lately and so we rather planned to give him a boost with a crap game noontime, till his ma got better.

READY FOR ElBERTAS
G. E. Norton Says He and His As.

Fruit evaporation at the plant of the

INSIST ON PURE
MEATS BELOW GAP
Lower Valley Residents Take to
Buying Yakima Inspected
Meats in This City

Residents of the lower valley are
buying their meat from North Yakima
rather than eat uninspected meat, and
Ellensburg dealers are protesting that
they are receiving the suspected ami
mails that cannot now be presented at
Yakima abattoirs. as results of the
recent inauguration of the meat in
|spection ordinance passed by the city
commission. The reports are made
unofficially by DIR. /. N. Hamacker,
city meat inspector, who says that
soner or later other towns in the val
ley will be forced as matter of pro-
lection to adopt ordinances similar to
that now in force here.
The report of people from the lower
valley buying their meats here comes
from Sunnyside. A number of men
from that town, who have occasion
Ito come to North Yakima several
times month, take advantage of the
visits to- lay in q supply of meat from
the markets here, knowing that ali of
the meat in the local markets has
passed inspection.
ElIensburg Dealers Kick
Ellensburg retail meat dealers are
protesting, II is said, because now that
the inspection ordinance has gone into
effect, they say they are getting all of
the dairy animals. and animals sus-
pected of disease, which would not
be presented at all to the abattoirs
here for fear of rejection.
Meat Men Show Right Spirit
DR.. Habacker reports that the meat
men OF the city, both wholesale and
retail, are showing the right spirit in
their provisions for living up to the
inspection ordinance. The necessary
alterations in the plants of the whole-
salers are being made gradually, al
though Dr. Habacker insisted on GER
tain sanitary requirements before he
would consent to make any inspection
at all
He has found 1t necessary to reject
few animals entirely. although it is
often found necessary to reject por-
tons which have become diseased. In
these cases the organs are primarily
diseased, have acquired the disease
from within and not from the blood
of the animal.

Capitalists Have Been Trying to

year to make any effort at that kind

according to the statement made Fri
day by Mr.. Norton will be abou,
twenty-five to thirty tons daily of raw
fruit, though the exact capacity will
not be known until the process has
been tested and the conditions con-
trolling the evar Grating of local fruit

ORCHARD PAY ROLL
IS MANY THOUSANDS
And When Peach and Apple Har-
vest Seasons Arrive Will BE
an Enormous Aggregate

Probably FIVE thousand people are
on the payroll of the orchard owners
of Yakima right at the present time
When the peach season arrives OF
when the apple crop is being har-
vested the total viii be two or three
times greater or else the fruit will bl
lost to some extent. There are easily
five thousand people engaged in this
county at the present time in fruit
culture Perhaps the figures can be
run much higher considering that the
cherry picking is in progress and nat
pack ers are engaged in large numbcis
in the orchards and in the ware
houses preparing the crops to be mar
keted.
Future of valley Labor
Fred Thompson, OF the Thorn Dsnr
Fruit company. when asked Saturday
morning regarding the labor situatoa

future, though he admitted that he Il

his orchard property is fully supplied

Of Mr.. Thompson that there is man

chards are concerned there is MAI
to every thirty or thirty-five acres. In
addition there are the pickers AMI

warehouse of the Horticultural Union
Saturday when Herald reporter
called there, "A starr of forty was EN-

What one Ranch Needs

If the apples are allowed to remain
too long on the trees there will be a
loss in quality that will be serious.
Mr. Thompson says he does not know
of any adequate arrangements having
been made for ranch storage though
that Is a most essential feature.

100000 CHILDREN
At WORK N NATION
One in Seven Between 10 and Ii
Years Are Not to Be Found
in School

NEW YORK, June N.--There are
more than 100000 illiterates In the
United States. and one in seven of all
children between 10 and II are not In
school according to the child labor
bureau, new quarterly review issued
today by the National Child Labor
committee. Twenty nine states do not
care whether children can even read
and write when they permit them To
go to work, and there are million
children today under the age of l6
years who are employed in the various
Industries of The country, in addition
to another million IL agriculture. only
a part of whom are assisting their
parents on the farm"
The first number of he bulletin
shows how far the United States has
progressed since the first child labor
1876. Thirty-nine states have passed
child labor laws since the organization
of the national Child Labor committee
in 1904. The 14th birthday is now the
lowest limSt for work for children In
the northern states, with the single
exception Of New Hampshire and In
four southern states, Kentucky, Ten
nessee, Louisiana and Virginia What
Is involved in the absence Of adequate
restriction Is thus wildly expressed by
p. p. Claxton, United States commits
sioner of Education:
"ln the Carolinas I have seen child
rem under 10 years of age working
their lives away In the mills Their
a 10 Of
boys years old drinking black coffee
at midnight to keep awake until the
end of their shift at or o'clock in
the morning Then they went out OF
the hot, steaming, noisy mill into the
cold air of the morning to their homes
probably for little fitful sleep and a
drowsy. joyless day, only to come back
at night and grind again through the
long. dark hours"
I'm four states. Ohio, Oklahoma.
Illinois and Michigan" Florence Kelly
says, there is now provision made to
lift the burden upon the widowed
mother by giving her, as her right and
not as the dole of a private charity,
an allowance out of public finances on
condition that she stay in her ONE
and keep her children at home and in
school as the state requires" AS Jean
Gordon of New Orleans puts it on an
other page: Certainly the moGer
does as much for her country in rear
ing her children as the veterans did
in killing her sons"
Occupations dangerous to health or
morals are singled out by some lew
states and forbidden to minors under
16 or Is or 81. as for example. the
night messenger service Is now regu-
lated by special laws in New York and
nine other states.
Having noted progress the bulletin
offers the following Indictment of the
child labor system namely, that
child labor means racial degeneracy.
the perpetuation of poverty. the en-
Iargement of illiteracy the disintegra-
ton of the family the Increase Of
crime. the lowering Of the wage scale
and the swelling Of the army of the
unemployed.

UNION MANAGER SEES
GOOD BUSINESS YEAR
E. E. Samson Expects to Handle
1900 Cars of Yakima Valley
Crop This Season

Manager e. e. Samson of the Yak
ina Horticultural Union expects to
ship out from Yakima this season
1900 cars of the fruit of the valley
This will constitute approximately
oneseventh of the total crop as II IS
now figured. a great many false
statements have been sent out from
Yakima regarding the fruit crop of
this valley and how it would he
handled. and one of these reports
that the proportion handled by the
Union Will be a sixteenth and gives
the figures at 400 cars Mr. Samson
reports that the membership of the
Union Is growing daily and that he Is
called upon daily to change his esti-
mate of the carloads he may expect
because of the new fruit promised
Colorado Estimates
Writing to Mr.. Samson from Grand
Junction, Colo, the manager of the
fruit growers union there reports
that his district expects to ship be-
tween 2000 and $500 carloads OF
peaches, $50 carloads of pears and
$500 carloads of apples This is a re-
duction of at least 500 cars in the
peach estimate and of nearly 200
cars in the pear estimate. Grand
Junction Will be the heaviest competl-
tor aklnla VIII nave in the pea q n
business and, therefore. news from
that section Is valuable to the growers
here. The writer reports a fun crop
Of Alexanders, Carmans. Hale's Early

Will be the main crop
Pears and Apples
or pears he says there has been a
heavy drop and in addition the Bart

In apples he says there will be a
full crop OF all varieties, excepting
Winesaps and Arkansas Blacks md
the early summer apples.
Manager Samson, who Is getting
out car of cherries, expects to start
in on Monday on another car He re-
ports that he has not found any indi-
cation as yet of Congested mark ats
and, on the other hand the trade re-
ports from the Chicago auction mar

The Land of Beginning Again

wish that there were some wonderful place
Called the Land of Beginning Again,
Where all our mistakes and all our hearaches
And all of poor, selfish grief
Could be dropped like shabby old coat at the door
And never put on again
wish We could come on it all unaware
Like the hunter who finds lost trail;
And wish that the whom blindness had done II,
The greatest injustice of all
Could be at the gates like an old friend that waits
For the comrade he's gladdest to hail.
We would find all the things we intended to do
But forgot and renenbered-oo late,
Little praises unSpoken, little promises broken,
And all of the thousand and
Little duties neglected that might have perfected
The day for one less fortunate
1t wouldn't be possible not to be kind
In the Land of Beginning Again.
And the ones we msjudged the whom grudged
Their moments of victory here,
Would find in the grasp of our loving handclasp
More than peniten lips could explain.
For what had been hardest we'd know had been bes,,
And what had seemed loss would be gain;
For there isn't sting that would not take wing
When we've faced it and laughed it away;
And think that the laughter is most what we're after
In the Land of Beginning Again!
So wish that there were some wonderful place
Called the Land of Beginning Again,
Where all our mistakes and all our heartaches
And all of our poor, selfish grief
Could be dropped like shabby old coat at the door
And never put on again.
