GROWS
IN FRUIT FAIR

(By Chas. H. Ross, president West
ern Washington Fruit Fair.)
We desire to call attention of the
citizens and fruit growers of West
ern Washington to the fact that IA
bout one year ago there was held
at Puyallup Western Washington
porary organization was effected. 1t
is the intention of the management
to make the organization perman-
ent, which will include an advisory
board of three from each county
to look after the interests of their
respective counties and to co.
operate with the officers and direc-
tors of the Western Washington
Fruit Show.
1t has been decided to hold the
second Annual Apple Show on De-
cember 4, 5 and 9Th. 1912, at Puy-
allur Washington, and make this
an annual show embracing all OF
the counties of Western Washing
ton.
The object is to interest all OF
the fruit growers of the territory
named in getting together and
learning how to grow and prepare
a better grade of commercial fruit
for market. This ''get together
movement will greatly aid the solv-
ing of the question of the best
varieties of apples to grow.
The new markets to be opened
by the completion of the Panama
Canal must be met with an intelli-
gent conception of what it means
to Puget Sound. The fruit grow
er as well as the business man
will have his part to play in the
change which must inevitably fol-
low these new conditions.

Mind Reading.

A skeptic on the subject of things
psychic attempted to account for GER
tain curious happenings by calling
them matter of mind reading. He
said the facts were uppermost in the
mind of one of the two persons in
yolved and we're transferred to the
mind of the other, after which they
were dressed up and made to appeal
in the light of mediumistic communi-
cation. That's all right, but why is
mind reading any less psychic, any
less phenomenal than message from
the dead? As look at 1t, once admit
the power of thought to the extent Of
mind reading and you admit the power
of thought irrespective OF the body,
and hence quite as much alive after
so-called death as before. No, mind
reading doesn't appeal 70 me as much
of an explanation.-Exchange.
