of fruit shipped. Having the climate,
the necessary sunshine to give the
famous Idaho color" and the rich soil
from which to draw nourishment,
fruit growing proved profitable in
dustry in 1912. State Horticultural
Inspector John U, Mcpherson, an ex-
pert horticulturist, has through his
maintained an army of
deputies throughout the state for the
purpose of allowing only but the best
fruit to go onto the market or be
shipped, to fight the scale. the cod
ling moth and numerous other pests
peculiar to the industry. 1t has been
largely through his efforts that Idaho
fruit has made such rapid advances,
gaining distinct recognition.
At the present time Idaho has 142,-

OBITUARY..
DIR. II. l.. TOWNSEND.

The removal by death of the late DR.. |
H. l.. Townsend of Bridport, VT, is a
cause of sincere regret to a host of ,
friends. Having spent over so years in !
the above town as a practicing ply |
stefan, few men could be missed more
than he.
He was born in Plainfeld, VT, on
August 18th, 1860. He graduated from
the medical department of the Univer-
sity of Vermont in the class of 1881. A
man who holds an important position in
the State of Vermont, and who gradu-
ated in the same class as DR.. Townsend,
recently told the writer of these lines
that he CDR. Townsend) was highly es-
eemed in college, and that for him
everybody prophesied most brilliant
future.
For a short time he practiced med
icine in Hancock, VT, later going to
Bridport, where he spent the last 81
years of his life. This long period of
service gave him intimate acquaintance
throughout his own town as well as sur
rounding towns. He was a member of
member of the Grand lodge of Vernon t
for several years. For several years he
was examining physician for the N. Y
Mutual Life Insurance Co., a member
of the old soldiers examining board;
surgeon in the Lakeside camp of the
Modern Woodmen of America; health
officer and school director. He was very
active in his work until the seeds of dis
previous to his death he was on the de-
cline. H e passed away at his late
home in Bridport on February 9th, and
the funeral services were held the fol-
lowing Sunday in the Congregational
church. The spacious building was
packed with sympathizing friends, the
floral tributes were numerous and
beautiful, and on all sides there were
signs that great wave of sorrow had
passed over the people, for a great
helper and lover and server of humanity
had been gathered to his fathers.
Inc remains were taken TO Plaln1leld
VT, for burial in Hill Crest cemetery
An escort of Knights Templar accom-
panied the body from the station to the
cemetery, where loving hands per
formed the last act of committal.
His wife and one son survive him
No better thought can be expressed re
2 garding him than the following word
of James Whitcomb Riley:
81 cannot saw. and | will not saw
That he is dead. He is just away"

PROSPECTS FOR YALE.
Remarkable Record in Baseball En-
courages Discussion.

New York, May 23.-Yale almuni and
undergraduates, both at New Haven
and throughout the entire East are dis
GUESSING the prospects of a champion
ship baseball team for the Blue, this
season. The remarkable record made
by the Varsity nine to date has en-
coura ged the belief that Yale has an
excellent chance to capture both the
Princeton and Harvard series. Since
the season opened. early in April, Yale
has played % games, of which all but
three have been won. The University
OF Pennsylvania is the only college to
defeat the Eli players, taking one Of
the three game series. The other two
defeats were administered by the New
York Giants both the Cubs and resu-
lars winning five-inning games from
Yale.
There remain but two games TO he
played before the Princeton and Har-
ward series begin. Tomorrow. Yale
plays Cornell at Ithaca and, on Tues
day, Williams comes to New Haven.
On May 81, the first Princeton game is
scheduled and, on June II, the third
and final game of the Harvard series
will De played should a deciding con-
test BE- needed. Since the double de-
feat at the hands of the Giants the
Yale rine has scored 16 conseeutiv,
victories, several of them being extra
inning contests.
