Women Prod Apple
 Com bine.

Mrs. Julian Heath, national president of the Housewives League says that the League will start a crusade the coming week, having for it's object the unload ing on the market of apples that are being held in great quantities for an increase in prices.
 The apple market is going to move, and it's going to move rapidly" Mrs. Heath said, land if the dealers do not unload the league will be obliged to enter into competition with apples of it's own. The league has had such success in it's cold storage egg crusade that many commits sion merchants have asked us to handle this and that food stuff. We have advices that the hens in Kansas, Texas and particu- larly Oklahoma are laying well as the result of mild weather, and Western eggs are bound to be plentiful soon. That means there will be less demand soon for cold storage eggs and prices will break. :"

A Historical Spread.

The handsome bed spread the NEWS made mention of last week as having been won by Willie Woods, has quite a history attached to it.
 It came from the principal city of the Canary Islands, Las Palermas, the capital. The na- tives who by laborious. slow and tedious hand work, make the famed the world over Spanish hand drawn work, procure their linen direct from Ireland and is made to order and of special width. Their work is sold direct never through jobbers or deal CTS and their prouct is highly prized. MT. L. Caldwell secured the spread while on a trip to West Africa, at the same time he bought one for his mother.
 The one Willie Woods won and presented to his mother is the second largest in the United States. The larger one is owned by some Ell Paso people.

SOME FACTS FOR THE GENERAL

 NEEDS. A modern, we'll equipped laboratory and the en- ployment of a competent man for it's direction is a necessity if any effort is to be made in giv- ing each person a chance, as it were, for his life.
 Through the kindness of Dr. Watkins, of St. Luke's Home, some blood work has been done, but the hospital needs it's own labratoty and man, that those in charge may at all times have be- fore them the aid to exact diag- nosis that those facilities would afford.
 There are needed at least one hundred (100) miIch cows to SUD- ply the quantity of milk required. There are now only twenty-fne (25).
 A pavilion for the housing and 
 isolation of tubercular patients is needed.
 The present dining hall is now too small; The kitchen unsanita- ry and cooking facilities made quate to the needs. All classes of patients now take their meals in the dining room; this should not be. Those in whom inn provement is expected should not be brought in contact with the disturbed or idiotic. The male and female patients should have separate dining halls.
 An ice plant with adequate cooling rooms will soon save the cost by preserving meat and gar den produce that now go to waste.
 A dining hall, kitchen, bakery and ice plant could be erected in one building and it is hoped that funds for this purpose will be appropriated.
 There is not available at pres ent a detailed estimate of the funds needed for improvements, however, roughly the amount may be placed at $1O,O0O. In the past there have been small amounts appropriated which gave only opportunity to make repairs. The sum now asked for to be used in the next two years, may seem large but immediately saving will be made and conse- quent reduction in cost of main tenance. Again the welfare of our citizens should be considered and if the mental faculties of but few persons are pre- serve d through the improved facilities. does not the end justify the cost?
 It is appreciated that those in charge are held responsible by their community for disposition of state funds, hence we must look to the general public to aid in every way possible.
 In conclusion, all who read this bulletin are advised that the legislature meets early in the
