is further born out by the fact that
the condition yields so readily to the

have been carried on and are the, pick
of about rs, 900 girls who are enrolled
in the canning clubs.
Canning club work was begun three
or four years ago by the Bureau OF
Plant Industry in cooperation OF
various private agencies. Prizes have
been given before, but never have the
winners been sent in body to Wash
ington, although the state winners in
the boys corn clubs have been re-
warded in this manner. The Depart
ment of Agriculture considers that
the time is now ripe for the prize
girls to have a similar trip and the re-
suit is that plans are in progress for
the entertainment of the fortunate
young women that the states select.
The selection of the winner is made
differently in different states. In
Georgia, for instance, the prize will
be rewarded by the Atlanta Chamber
of Commerce at the Atlanta Corn
Show. In some cases a womans' club
or an individual or board of educa-
ton gives the prize. A great number
of public spirited people are encour-
aging the growth of the canning club
idea as an educational project and
the trips will all be paid for through
the generosity of private agencies or
individuals.

APPLE DAY AT PORTLAND.

PORTLAND, Ore, Sept. 5.-lf you
don't eat an apple Tuesday, Nov.
18th, you will be one of the few people
in the United States that fails to eel
citrate.
Let it be known far and wide that
that day is apple day all over the
country. Some places will celebrate
only one or two days, but in other
sections a whole week will be devoted
to special bargain days for the king
of fruits.
At the same time you are made
aware of the date for the second ma
tional apple day, you are notified that
the best way to celebrate and the
cheapest will be to buy the product
by the box or barrel. Those in charge
of the apple day campaign urgently
request the average man or woman to
refrain from becoming ''piker' by
failing to celebrate. No less a ma
tional authority than Dr. Wiley,
former head of the pure food bureau
of the government, has made the
statement that the eating of apples is
the best possible method of preserving
the health of the nation.
"a national health food" has been
the title that has been given the ap-
pie.

does not supply the funds for the
trips which the young women will
make it has arranged that the women
agents of the canning clubs shall be
summoned to Washington for an OIL
cial conference at the same time that
the girls are to visit the capitol.
They will, therefore, be called upon
to chaperon the girls from their re-
spective states and will be in charge
of them during their visit. The 18th
of December is the date on which this
conference is now expected to be call
ed and on which the girls Will prob
ably arrive. They will come for a
stay of four or five days.
In order to determine which girls
are to be chosen, choice first is
made of the best girl in each county
on the basis of notes, reports and eX-
hibits of the competitors A state
contest is then held in which the win
ners of the various counties compete.
This is frequently held in connection
with the state fair.
Each girl of the 25, 900 girls enrolled
in the canning clubs is supposed to
have carried out definite project in
gardening on tenth acre plot. The
girls have raised tomatoes principally,
but frequently they plant string
beans, cucumbers, peppers, okra, etc.

success of a few growers OF this fruit
seems to bear out the statement. The
chief objection buyers have with our
pears is that we do not grow enough
of variety and that some OF our or
chards are not we'll enough cared for
to produce clean fruit.
Orchardists in Western Washington
can help this condition in two ways:
First, clean up the orchard: second,
encourage all future commercial
paintings to consist of only a few
good varieties.
Fair associations and fruit shows
can also aid in this work. They can
cut out premiums for a hundred or
more varieties of apples and half of
the usually listed pear varieties and
place larger premiums on a few good
commercial varieties. There are few
county fair associations in Western
Washington that cannot offer a $25 or
$50 prize for the best ten boxes of
Gravenstein apples or Anjou pears.
Some of our fairs have advanced along
this line to some extent and are now
offering special prizes for the best 10
or 20 box displays, but they still place
small premiums on plate exhibits of
poor varieties which could be used
with better advantage for larger ex-
hibits.

COUNTY FAIRS OFFER FOOLISH
FRUIT PREMIUMS.

During the past two years it has
been my fortune to visit most OF the
county fairs in Western Washington
and study the varieties Of fruits
shown at such fairs. At most of
these fairs prizes of 81. 90 and so cents
are usually offered as premiums for
the best plate of exhibits Of different
varieties of apples and pears. On ex-
am1ning these premium lists one can
usually find the names of at least a
hundred and many times more than
a hundred varieties of apples. OF
this great number not more than one
half of the varieties have much OF
commercial value in any locality and
in this region not more than one
tenth of them can be grown success
fully in commercial quantities.
A variety of fruit that cannot be
shown in larger quantities than five
or six specimens on a plate cannot be
called a commercial success. Fairs
in Western Washington showing a
great many varieties of fruits are fine
pasture for the trained pomologlst
who is making a special study OF va
rieties, but they are OF very little
value to the average grower. Our fair
associations are actually offering a
premium and by SO doing are en-
couraging the growing of great
many varieties. The only exc use that
can be offered is that the fairs are
still young and that large premium
list brings many entries and conse-
ouently good fair. Such an excuse
can be accepted from new fair as
ISOLATION, but many of our fairs are
no longer young and still are not de-
veloping in their horticultural dis
plays as they should develop.
Western Washington probably will
never be commercial apple center
as the climatic conditions are not so
favorable for the growing of this fruit
as they are for the growing of pears
and berries. However, there are
some varieties of apples that do as
we'll in Western Washington as in any
other locality and if grown in guam
titles, the orchards properly handled,
and the fruit we'll packed, could be
made a profitable crop. What is true
of the apple is true to some extent OF
the pear. Well trained borticulturists
tell us the Puget Sound region is the
natural home of the pear. and the

SELLING
MANY LOTS

Mrs. Mary Huehn is having splendid
success with the sale of lots on what
is known as the old ball ground prop
erty.'' She has sold ten lots for cash
in the past day or two and expects to
sell out a number of others this even
ing.
Mrs Huehn delayed the sale of this
property for six months result of
an intimation she had that the school
board wanted to get it for playground
purposes.
The board delayed making the pur-
chase, however, until Mrs Huehn got
tired of waiting and sold ten lots out
of the property 1t will now be i'm
possible for the school board to get a
whole block on the north side for play
grounds purposes.
Mrs. Huehn is getting out of the for
ty rear lots as much she offered
to sell the whole property to the
school board for and she Will have the
Gostlin street frontage in addition.

There was not a word of debate on

HAMMOND HAS
POLICE WOMAN NOW
Miss Lulu Symmes Clothed
by Council With Police
Authority.

Hammond now has special police
woman. the police commissioners at
their meeting last Monday evning hav-
Ing appointed Miss Lulu Symmes who
Is principal of the Lincoln school, and
president of the Lake County Humane
Society.
The purpose of Miss Symmes' ap-
pointment is to clothe her with police
power as a lieutenant for the humane
society, and about a dozen more men
and women, are to be appointed to the
same office in the near future Miss
Symmes and all those to be appointed
in a like capacity will serve without
salary, considering their work as part
of the scheme to make the humane So
ctety an effective organization.
The society hopes TO have a lieuten-
ant with police power in every import
ant section of the city, and clothed
with authority they will be in a better
position to make Investigations
Miss Symmes was one of the enthusi-
astic organizers of the Lake County
Humane Society in Hammond from
which similar societies spread to other
Lake County cities.
As special police officers il will of
course not be expected of the humane
society lieutenants that they do any
of the routine work such a sis per-
formed by the regular officers.

A few of the main facts concerning
the buildings to be erected by the
Baldwin Locomotive company at once,
have leaked out, although more or
less secrecy has been maintained re-
garding the details.
1t is known however that the first
main building is to be 200 by 600
feet in dimensions. These figures do
not at first thought reveal the mann
moth size of the structure, but when
it is pointed out that 1900 feet lacks
only about 100 feet of being quar-
ter of mile, and 600 feet only about
fifty feet of being an eight of mile
