Climbers Chatter.
By SENATOR"

CHARLOTTESVILLE Va, March 10.
--As evidence of the Intelligence OF
Jacinto Calvo. it may be said that
though he came here with hardly a
word of English in his vocabulary, he
can now make himself understood fairly
we'll, and has begun to write letters IN
English. The other night he spent two
hours composing letter home In TINS
strange tongue. and when he had con-
ciuded he smiled and said: Soon l.
write all English. Make them home

Victor Munoz. the Havana baseball
writer, is behind a movement to form
a Cuban baseball league. composed OF
three teams in Havana and others in
Matanzds, Cienfuegos and Santiago. he
says that the game has not advanced
far enough vet for the idea TO be popu-
lar. but that in a few years time he
will have such a league play on the
island every winter. 1 -,
Joe Connolly, though hardly in condi-
tion yet for his best work, looks Ike
the makings of a fast gardener. He has
excellent style in running, sticking out
his feet in sprinter fashion. Dan
Moeller. who had the advantage AT col
iege of a track coach in this regard,
runs IN the same style. Connolly mas
been unfortunate with the bat, though,
since reporting. and has yet TO show
some of tie -clouting that gave him fig
ures of 316 in the International League
last summer.
The entire training trip has been a
lark for Victor Bickers, not that he
has not worked faithfully. but because
IL is his first trip of the kind, and
everything is new to him. He comes

ADVISED TO CUT DOWN PEACH TREES
Fruit Buyer Says There Never Was Any
Money in Peaches Grown in We
natChee Valley

G. B. Lanham of Wagner & Son, an
apple buyer who visits this valley regu-
larly every year and is quite we'll known
to the fruitgrowers, does not think
much of the peach crop of the Wenat-
chez valley. We were urged very
strongly says Mr.. Lanham to enter the
peach deal this year, but finally de-
cided to stay out as we have never
seen any money made on peaches from
this valley.
What would you do if you had a
peach orchard in the Wenatchee val
ley," Lanham was asked.
I would cut down the trees and
plant Winesaps," was the quick an
swer Of the fruit buyer. This is the
greatest apple country on earth. Its a
sure winner and always will be. What
is the sense of fooling with peaches in
a district like this?"

BOILED APPLES MOST PALATABLf
Expert Gives Recipe for Cooking Apples
Says None of the Strength is
Lost

Apple dumplings, fritters, pies,
sauce and all the other 21o different
ways of preparing the king OF fruits
have the approval OF Donald Bradford,
field representative Of the sixth Ma
tional Apple and Fruit Products con-
gress, but he claims that boiled apples
win the prize for palatability. Mr..
Bradford qualities as an expert by rea-
son Of having sampled apples cooked
after all the best ways in the various
apple districts of the northwest. Here
is his recipe for boiled apples: Teacup
of sugar to seven average apples; cover
with water and boil until the cores are
done. Before cooking do not pare or
core the fruit, and use seasoning. By
cooking in this way" he says, none
of the strength is lost, and you get
the fruit with all its wealth of juice.
Prepared in this way more apples can
be consumed, and less work is re-
CURED in the preparation and cooking.
The results are easily seen. You in
crease the consumption of apples,
thereby enriching the northwest. By
eating more apples you benefit your
health. By reducing the labor OF
cooking you add to the happiness OF
your wife. Therefore, try boiled ap-
Piles and gain health, wealth and hap
piness,"

Important Decision

The state attorney generals office,
in an opinion rendered to the state
public service board, rules that mu-
nicipal water systems have no author
ity to furnish water outside of the city
limits, and the board has no control
over them, even though they had this
right. The opinion was given re-
garding a complaint from Ellensburg,
in which persons living outside the
city want to compel the municipality
to provide water to relieve a typhoid
epidemic.

ITEMS OF INTEREST
FROM THE NORTHWEST
William B. Wilson, Secretary of Labor,
Visits Seattle and Addresses the
Federation of Labor

VIM. B. Wilson, Secretary Of Labor,
in frank address last week to the an
nual convention OF the American Fed
Grafton OF Labor in this city, told his
hearers that his federal department
would henceforth investigate cases Of
disagreement between employe and
employer, not only the wages and hours
OF the worker, but the earnings of the
corporations, as well, and then present
these facts to the public. He outlined
a new conception of property rights
from the point OF view Of the admins
tration, namely that an individual or
corporation has no right to do as 1t
pleases with its property when SO do
ing interferes with the public welfare,
that property rights are law and
given only to the individual or cor
poration as trust, which can be modl-
fed by the nation whenever such act
ion is deemed necessary for the public
good. Mr.. Wilson pleased the dele
gates when he announced that he pro-
posed to work for a federal bureau of
employment statistics to be handled
very much like weather bureau infor-
nation, so that the department might
in the future inform workers where
they might find employment, with data
as to wages, hours, conditions and
trade union organization.

A VALUABLE SUGGESTION
TO OUR YOUNG PEOPLE
Concentrate

Don't spatter a pint OF brains
over the vast field of art and
literature. Don't think that a
smattering of Greek and Latin
Analytics and college yell make
one a learned man or fits him for
a business and don't hitch a
business brain to a Greek leXi-
con. Many man becomes moth
ing by trying to become all. The
shot gun uses much more ammu-
milton than the rifle, but it ISM
half as effective except on little
game.
The professions are all over
crowded;it requires lifetime for
one to succeed in them, and half
a fortune to begin success.
With business it is not so,
Get busy; do things; life's toe
short for business men to spent
efforts on dead languages and
other things two thousand years
old, when living issues and gold
en- opportunities are calling them
on.
The things business men want
you know are not taught in a
university. They must be
learned in a practical business
training school like the Tyler
Commercial College of Tyler,
Texas. A school that has for
years studied the demands OF
the business world, and with its
own special prepared text books
and learn to do by oing"methds
of teaching, are meeting them.
Their courses of business ad-
mini stration and finance, Book
keeping, Shorthand and Tele
graphy are thorough and com
plete and meet the demands of
the business Office. Young
friends, there is no walk in life
that you can pursue as success
fully without a business training
as with it.
Next week this paper will pub
lish statements from many OF
Americas greatest statesmen
as to the value of a business
training.
