ure of Former Citizens Asso-

ACTIVE WORKER FOR THE BILL

The pen with which President Taft
signs the District appropriation bills goes
TO William Nick. Clayton. for two years
the president of the Federation Of Citi-
zens Associations.
Mr.. Claytons activity and work for a
Public Utilities Commission for the Dis
trict for the past three years led some
months ago to the President promising
Mr.. Clayton the pen with which he hoped
to sign the public utilities measure.
AS this legislation comes in the ap-
preparation bill, the pen making this bill
law goes to Mr.. Clayton.
When the Federation OF Citizens As
sociations was formed in May, 1911, the
first act was to instruct its president TO
prepare and have introduced in Congress
bill for a Public Utilities Commission
for the District of Columbia.
This was done and the Citizens Asso-
citation, through their central body. have
kept up most persistent campaign
ever since.
President Taft twice recommended the
measure in messages to Congress The
press OF the city, sympathetic from the
start, earnestly pressed the bill The
supreme Importance of this legislation
for the District was kept constantly be-
fore the Citizens Associations by the
Federation.

SECRET Meeting
OF GROCERS HELD
Jewish Organization will Protest to
District Commissioners Against
Short.weight Bread.
COMPLAINTS TOFOLLOW

An organization OF the Jewish grocers
OF the District Of Columbia, known as
The Capital Retail Grocers Protective
Association with a membership OF about
30, has found the trials Of the local
bread war SO irksome that a special
executive and secret meeting has been
held by them for the purpose Of formu-
latfng protest against under weight
bread and desiring some effective means
of relieving themselves Of the confusion
which several prices and size OF loaves
IS making, now that the public is show
ins increased interest in the situation.
An interesting circular in Hebrew has
been passed arcLnd amorS members OF
the association. which had as its scare
head, according to translation: 3 for 10
or for TO-" indicating that they might
soon be facing a situation Of some Of
your next neighbors. of grocers Will sell
the bread next week, loaves for 10
cents" az stated in the circular.
BY order of the association its presi-
dent. Simon Gordon, the treasurer. l. s.
Cohen, and the vice president, Adam
I.uber, all District of Columbia retail
grocers, were appointed committee to
present TO the Commissioners Of the Dis
trict of Columbia a protest against the
present variance in the size and weight
of loaves of bread baked by local bak-
ers. and to demand a regulation imme-
dlately be put into enect that pakeo
loaf Of bread sold TO the people of the
District shall be of the uniform weight
of one pound.
This action by this section Of the three
thousand or more retailers selling bak-
ers' bread in the District of Columbia
is but a forerunner of others that are
10 come and the telling Of the bread
war news by the Herald is sure TO
aid the people of the District on the
bread question.
More important phases Of the strife
between the retailers. the bakery sales
men, or bread-wagon drivers and the
bakers. who are said to make up the
so-called Bakers Trust" will be forth
coming with the passing away OF the
inauguration excitement, when the people
will have more time TO set up and con-
slider.
II four Ioaves of good bread can be
sold for 10 cents. the three for 10
bakers will have to meet the competi-
tion, and the day OF the '.double-cross
doubling back will be here. As predicted
in The Herald last week, the words of
one who seems to know that before the
bread war is over there will be
monetary and other losses that will be

GOOD SOIL FOR BUSH FRUITS
All Varieties Should Be Grown In

The ground between the rows and
around the bushes should be kept
fine and mellow. II the soil is al
lowed to become hard and allowed to
grow up in weeds and grass. the yield
will be cut short. and the fruit will
be small and of inferior quality. All
bush fruits should be grown in wide
rows. so the greater part of the cult
Walton can be done with the horse,
hoe and cultivator.
The proper distance to plant cur
rants. raspberries, blackberries and
gooseberries in the fruit garden is
five feet apart each way for horse
cultivation. For the small family gar
den plant in rows FIVE feet apart and
three apart in the row. This will al

This mulch prevents the growth OF
