Reception rendered
c. A. Franklin

1915, from $50 to 1880
o'clock, The Colorado Com
mercial Alliance paid its high
est respects to Mr.. Chester A.
A. Franklin, who is soon
stablish his home in Kansas
City, State of Missouri, where
he will BECOME the factor and
worthy citizen he has been in
the city of Denver and State
of Colorado.
Mr.. Franklin's social IN
fluence reaches throughout
this state. His fraternal at
hliations embrace the lead
ing secret orders of this state
and up to this time have cul-
minated in his being Grand
Chancellor for this jurisdiction
of the order of Knights of
, Pythias.
Because Of his unassuming
disposition, he had a host OF
friends who knew him in
but one capacity, that of
Editor of The Statesman
and its succeeding publication,
The Denver Star.
J1e is considered an editor
wao knew how to edit and a
printer who knew what TO
print.
Many who knew him were
uesent to bid him good
bye and wish him the sue
cess which they felt assured
he would achieve in his new
field Of cndeavor.
1t is understood that his
friends and acquaintances re
pret his departure from Den
yer and the loss of his citizen
ship to this community. Ger
tainly his presence, his energy.
his civic spirit, his undoubted
success and all the qualities
which make up his indivldu-
allty we're an asset to the bet
ter citizenship of the west.
There we're present some
who had not had the oppor-
tunity Of meeting Mr.. Frank
lin until this occasion and who
caught the spirit of the oc-
casion and reluctantly bade
the guest of honor Good
bye
The Commercial Alliance
feels that it did itself honor in
its endeavor to honor him; it
is pleased that so many at
tended the reception, it re-
prets that it was unable to
notify many who would have
been present.
The Colorado Commercial
Alliance humbly and not hast
;Iv but heartily and sincerely,
afGD a manner rendered Mr..
FRANKLIN a farewell reception
which seemed to them meet
and proper for commercial
organization. 1t was an infor-
NAL affair. The occasion was
void of any formality. Men
met men for the good of men.
The Alliance as an entity
entertained its guests with the
the service of refreshments;
dissembled into its constituent
membership, t through the
Z voices of it's members and
guests, it said to Mr.. franklin;
good bye-sorry you are go
xing wish you success.

SERMONS ON MOTHERS DAY
Appropriate Discourses Delivered
in Alexandria Churches
Yesterday

Backward, flow backward, o, Time
in thy fight
Make me a child again just for to-
night.
Mother, come back from the echoless
shore, j..
Take NE again 20 thy arms as Of
yore.
The above lines from an old ode
were brought TO the minds OF many
Yesterday while listening 10 sermons
on Mothers Day. The reproductive
power of the brain brought out films
of the sunny days of youth when
mothers presided over households
long broken by the scyEhe of the re-
lentless destroyer. Men and women,
now in the advanced evening Of life,
wore white carnations III respect to
the memory of mothers who have
long since passed into the eternal
world, while many displayed the COL
ored variety in acknowledgment OF
the fact that The lives of the presld-
ing angels of the family were still
performing their noble parts.
The churches were We'll attended
and the sermons were appropriate
and interes ing. Rev. J. ". Dutf@y,
D. D., of the NJ. E. Church South,
took for his theme "a Praying Moth

SUNDAY OPENING URGED.
Many People Desire to Visit Tomb
of Washington on
Sunday

Since the opening of am all-rail route
to Mount Vernon in 1892 a large num-
Der of persons, who have no other OPP
portunity to visit the American Mecca,
have urged upon the regents the
necessity of opening the GROUNDS to
visitors on Sundays. Thousands Of
persons, who are employed on week
days, have no other opportunity to
visit the tomb of Washington, and it
is a fact that q large number of
people, some of whom reside in close
proximity to this interesting spot,
live and die without entering the
grounds.
Up to 1876 the Louvre Musee in
Paris was kept closed on Sundays, and
many people, who had no other time
to inspect the great collection in that
place, played their respective parts
ion this terrestrial sphere without hay
ing visited this NEST interesting
place. 1t was finally opened and the
Louvre Musee IS now great resort
for Parisians. The British Royal Art
Gallery is also now open on Sundays.
Nearly all public buildings in WASH
ington are closed on Sundays, but
many think that the great mass OF
people should be allowed to enter these
structures on that day.
Those who are advocating Sunday
Mount Vernon openings are enccur-
aged by the fact that it has become
known that few members of the
board of regents Of the Mount Vernon
Ladies Association, are inclined to
favor this move. No definite action
has been taken, but it is said the SUD-
ject informally has been discussed by
members of the board of regents, and
that some formal action may be taken.
While there is nothing tangible on
which to base hopes of the project be-
ing carried through, the mild sea:l-
ment in favor of it, which is said to
exist among several members of the
board of regnts, gives rise to the
hope that persons who are employed
on week days will be allowed to visit
the tomb of George Washington or
the Sabbath.
Miss Janet Richards, the lecturer
who was the author Of the resolution
Improved by the Daughters of tht
hAmerican Revolution convention re-
questing that Mount Vernon be open
ed on Sundays, is one of the many
working to attain this end.
w. Lanier Washington, OF New
York city, has presented to the b3art
of regents of the Mount Vernon La
dies Association, number of valua
lbIe relics that descended to him from
General George Washington, and they
Twill be put on display for the first
Etime this week. In addition to thcse
relics, he has also sent to them re-.
production of the only oil portrait
! ever made of General Washington'S
mother.
Another valuable gift, to be added
to the collection of Washington relics
is the original patent of deed, signed
by Lord Culpeper, to 5000 acres OF
Hand which subsequently descended to
Washington and of which the present
Mount Vernon estate is part. The
document is dated 1914 and i: IN j
good state of preservation.

RULES OF LONGEVITY.
MICHIGAN

Several veterans of note have re-
Gently given advice as to the mode OF
living that insures longevity. Nothing
new has been added to the familiar set
of rules. Simplicity, moderation. fresh
air, exercise, healthful occupation for
body and mind, avoidance OF worry
these are the things usually and prop
erly recommended. How much sleep
one needs, whether tobacco should be
wholly eschewed, are among the open
questions. but it is surprising how few
questions are really open in connec-
ton with the subject of longevity. Ac-
cording to recent German statistics,
Europe has about 1000 persons who
have passed the one hundredth year.
They are distributed as follows: Bull
garia, about 1000 centenarians; Rou-
mania, over 1000; Servia, 573; Spain.
40; France, 213; Italy, 1877; England
90; Germany, &c, etc. The meaning Of
these figures is clear. The simpler and
more natural the life of nation the
more centenarians it is likely to have.
II Is worry. artiticiality, excess, con-
gestion and the disease OF such con-
dition to which the shortening of life
is to be attributed. We cannot all go
back to nature; we cannot all live on
land and by land but we can all profit
by the moral of the, figures above CIV
en-, to some extent at any rate. Sim
pier living, hygienic living, and the
cultivation OF patient and hopeful
spirit are possible to most Of US. The
very poor and submerged present a
problem everywhere. but it r true
that worry is more fatal than eNla ex-
IRENE poverty.

Farmers and fruit growers troubled
by scale are advised by A. l.. Lovett,
assistant entomologist at the Oregon
Agricultural college, to spray with
lime-sulphur, kerosene emulsion and
whale oil soap, as follows:
For scale insects of such a type as
the San Jose, use the lime-sulphate
spray of winter strength. For the soft
scales, such as occur on the black
berry, prune and plum, use the kero-
sene emulsion or whale oil soap.
Kerosene emulsion is prepared as fol-
lows: Heat a gallon of water (soft,
If possible) to boiling; shave half a
pound of soap into it (whale oil is pre-
ferred) and stir till the soap is dis
solved. Remove from the fire and add
two gallons of kerosene. Agitate Wig
orously till it is creamed, which is best
done with a hand pump, forcing the
solution through the hose and back
into the container For use in the dor
mant season this should be diluted
with seven gallons of water, but for
summer spraying, at the time the
young emerge, with eleven gallons Of
water. A pound of whale oil soap to
four gallons of water may be used as
a summer spray for soft scale.
For plant lice on roses and garden
truck crops any of the tobacco solu-
tions may be used. For plants having
a slick foliage, or where the aphids
are especially bad, there should be
added a pound of fish-oil soap dis
solved in a gallon Of hot water to
each eight gallons of the spray.
On fruit trees, as the apple and
peach, the spray used in early spring
when the buds are starting should be
combination of winter-strength
lime-sulphur and BLACK leaf 49,"

HAS the old man a right to liver!
A medical research society IN st.
Louis recently discussed the question.
The principal speaker stated that old
men were being poisoned with a long
administered course of Indifference,
neglect and filial disrespect. He be-
1ieved that the man who does not hon.
or his father and mother cares little
for his moral obligations to them, but
he does fear that some day his friends
will find out and that he will be put IN
the class in which he belongs. This
man never wishes his friends to know
that the old man who wears shabby
clothes and sleeps in the garrett is his
father. When a man makes a debt the
laws of the land enforce its payment,
But no law makes the man with
money in the bank pay the debt he
owes his old and needy father. The
son should do his duty willingly. II he
will not, there should be law to com,
pei him.

DISASTER SEEN IN
SINGLE-CROP IDEA
Fruit Specialist Would Find II
More Profitable to Keep
Some Live Stock.
CBy r. G. wEATHERsToNEJ


Single crop farming is disastrous IN
the long run, as we have seen in the
case of wheat, tobacco, peanuts and
cotton. Fruit is no exception to the
rule. believe there is a tendency to
specialize too highly in fruit growing.
and that in many cases the fruit spe.
cialist would find IL more profitable to
grow certain amount of other crops
or keep some live stock He should
make fruit growing his main, business.
but select such other interests as will
most effectively fill in the gaps that
appear in all kinds of specialized farm
ing. Even though the crops he selects
may not in themselves be nearly as
profitable as fruit, yet the total profit
from the farm for a series of years
may be greater, since labor and equip
ment are kept in use. Some lines OF
live stock farming are preferable to
others because of the fertility the ma
nure brings. Certain lines of stock
husbandry in which the animals are
fed In winter and pastured in summer
are practicable in some cases.

500 of solution. If applied ordinarily
the aphids do not become especially
bad. Where the trouble is severe the
tobacco solution should be used.
AS the San Jose scale is an armored
insect protected by a waxy covering,
very caustic material must be used In
its control. In order not to injure the
tree this material must be applied
while the trees are dormant. Hence
all spraying for the scale must be
done during the winter months. Any
time when the weather permits from
November to March will be satisfac-
tory.
The commercial lime sulphur should
be diluted at the rate of one gallon
to nine of water and the home made
solution diluted at the rate of one gal
lon to six of water. Both spray solu-
tons will then test about As degrees

AS the lime-sulphur solution is a
contact insecticide, every portion Of
the tree should be coated. If the
scales are to be killed they must be

care should be exercised in the ap-
plication of the material, as those
scales not killed can reinfect the
whole tree in one season.
Contrary to popular belief. the San
Jose scale is not the hardest pest to
control which infests the orchard.
Proper material applied at the proper
time and in the proper way will kill
80 per cent. of the insects. Either
purchase a good brand of commercial
lime-sulphur or carefully make your
own and then apply it conscientiously
and you will be able to save your
home orchards from destruction by
the pestiferous and injurious San Jose
scale.
