SELECTING NURSERY STOCK,
BY W. A. LUZADER,


1t ought to be the aim of every
man with enough ground room to
Justify it, to plant some useful kinds
OF fruit trees. In an astonishingly
short time they will begin to bear.
and If the selection is carefully
planned an abundance of wholesome,
nutritious fruit Is almost always at
hand to supply the family table. At
least one-half of u diet should be
fruit, and the family that is deprived
of this luxury is to be pitied.
Young fruit trees are very much
like young live stock-they need
care and attention; good husbandry,
as 1t were, and no husbandman can
expect a bountiful harvest if proper
attention is not put forth in caring
for the trees. The writer once heard
a gray-haired man, who years before
had carefully planted the luxurious
fruit trees about his premises, refer
to them as "his children" and it was
his delight to invite a friend to par
take of the luscious fruits of his in
dustry of former years.
There should be at least a tree or
two of most Of the standard varie-
ties, the fruits of which mature in
succession as the season advances,
so that each meal may have its va
rieties of fruit in various forms. G
Do not buy diseased trees, buy de-
p~endable stock from a dependable
nursery; me with a reputation, even
if the stock costs a little more than
they can be bought for elsewhere.
Pay the price for good stock; it will
pay big dividends in the end.
The writer not long ago had the
good pleasure Of visiting a large
nursery and carefully noted the care
exercised in the grading and select
ing Of stock. Not a tree that was
not healthy and of good form was
allowed to pass the inspectors. All
trees that did not come up to a high
standard Of development we're dis
carded and consigned to the brush
heap, as food for the flames. Every
person who intends to set out some
trees should know this nursery. It
is the Oregon Nursery Company,
Orenco, Or.

EMERGENCY AUTO CONTROL.

n DEVICE for stopping an auto
~ mobile. which can be operated
by a passenger in emergencies, such
as the fainting or sudden disability Of
the chauffeur, has been patented by
an English inventor. The invention
permits the quick stoppage of the
car. whether 1t Is going forward or
backward, without interfering, how
ever, with the ordinary management
OF the automobile under normal con-
ditions. Two friction wheels, which
are normally held apart by a spring,
may be shifted by a push button or
by a lever SO as to engage the rear
wheel and drive a gearing, winding
up a chain which pulls the brake.
The mechanism is contained in a
small case bolted to the frame of the
car,

CLAY Workers to Meet.

A conference of brick, tile and
other clay workers Of Oregon will be
held during o. A. c. Farmers Week,
February l to 7. Dean Parks, head
of the School of Mines, thinks that
the importance Of the clay products
in construction, drainage and other
lines justifies a more rapid and eco
nomical development of clay prod
ucts industries.

Substitute for Cement,

The following is recommended as
a substitute for cement: Make a mix

cotton fiber, k%neading well together
to a stiff dough. This should be al

GERMANY DEFEATED.

Pittsburg, Aug. 1.-Australasia earned the right to meet the British Isles in the final round of the lawn tennis tournament for the Dwight F. Davis international trophy by defeat ing Germany in the doubles at the Allegheny Country club here yester- day and thefeby gained it's third point in the tie, as it already had won the first two singles. Norman F.. Brcokes and Anthony F. Wilding paired together for the Antipodeans and won straight sets from Otto Froitzheim and Oscar Kreuzer, at 6-1, 6-1. 6-2 Two singles remain to be played today, Froitzheim meeting wilding in the opener and Kreuzer onnosing Brookes in the closing match. There was some talk of call ing these matches off, as the Germans are anxious to get back home on ac- count of the war. but the committee of arrangements at the club said last night that the matches would be played.

SUSPENSION FOR PLAYERS.
Johnson Furnishes Senators Who
 Got Into Row. #%

Detroit, Mich, Aug 1.-Ban Jol1n- son, president of the American league, who is here Investigating the disturbance when Umpire Sheridan ruled against Washington on a close decision at first base in the ninth in ming of the Detroit Washington game. has announced the suspension of Ainsmith and Morgan, of the Wash ington team.
 From what I have learned Ain smiths action was cowardly and un- called for and Morgan addressed Sheridan in profane terms immediate ly after the rendering of the deci- sion,' said Johnson. The players have been suspended. but I do not know as yet the length of their sus- pension or the amount of their fnes' .s Ainsmith is said to have struck Sheridan after the latters :alterca- tion with Morgan, who was called out at first base. Other players and spec tators joined in. the argument and eventually police had to be called to stop the fighting.

DOWN WITH ONE MAN
 POWER, SAYS CLEWS
Present European War is Outcome
 Of RusSC-Japan StTugge
Especial to the Herald.)

New York, August IA gen.
 eral European war is inconceivable.
 It would precipitate a cataclysm such as the world has never seen. No living statesman or ruler would dare
 to voluntarily risk consequences
 which would be crushing to the worlds industries and finances. Yet
 the danger is intense, and an overt
 act might start conf1agration which
 would make over the map of Europe
 and inf1ict incalculab1e loss of life and property. All the great powers are ready for armed conflict. By means of military demonstrations each is prepared to take the first ad- vantage, if necessary; and yet, strange to say, there is no immediate vital cause for war. Austria is simply runishng a small state for the mur- der of Archduke Francis Ferdinand; while all the other great powers are acting upon fear and a deep distrust of each others ultimate purposes. If war can be strictly localized, and if Russia can be persuaded not to ac- lively intervene in behalf of Servia, which probably depends upon Austria refraining from taking any Servian territory, then a great confiagration will be escaped, and diplomacy will doubtless be successful in settling all the minor issues.
 Effect Upon United States.
 The effect of war upon the United States will be highly injurious. Food products would rise, and the taking of hundreds of thousands of men out of employment in Europe would mean a md supplies. The scarcity of labor abroad would also be reflected here, resulting in higher wages in some in- dustries and a general further rise in the cost of living. Probably some in- dustries would benefit by the demand for war material, and there would be better demand for our manufactures of steel, textiles, etc, to meet the vacancy caused by the loss of foreign trade which Ger many and other European nations would inevitably incur. 1t is folly to suppose that such wholesale de- struction of life and property could be of benefit to the world at large. The worlds money markets would be violently deranged, and our own would ultimately feel the strain. | low the wholesale destruction of cap ital, and much of the refinancing of the future which has got to be met would face serious obstacles. Our foreign trade will be demoralized. The heavy foreign sales of securities in this market were the main cause of a large influx of gold, amounting to the week to about 40,000,000 on the current movement. 1t is we'll known, however, that the treasury will offer similar aid to last year for crop nov ing purposes; this, of course, being a very reassuring feature. The crop movement has already begun, and recent events are likely to hasten the 1 export movement of grain. Wheat | has advanced fully 10 cents and over, | which means phenomenal prosperity l to the western farmers, especially | wheat growers. Our wheat crop is | now estimated at over 9O0,00o,000 bushels, and as the bulk of it is still in farmers hands it follows that they and not intermediate will get the principal advantage from high prices. Com oddities generally are rising ow- |

INVENTORS TO TRY
 OUT NEW APPARATUS
Nels Nelson and Aaron Cohen Will Take Their Diving Machine to
 Saybrook Next Week.

Having completed their new div Cohen, who have been working on this invention for many months, are now planning to give 1t a practice al test. and as soon as the tubes for the intake and exhaust air arrive they will take their machine to Saybrocl1 where it will be given a thorough try out.
 MT. Cohen stated this morning that he expects to be able to have the div ing machine sent to Saybrook late next week or early the week after Here they will seek out a deep spot where the tests will be made. While the apparatus is built capable of going to a depth of $50 feet, it will not be sent down more than 25O in the Saybrook tests. The inventors state that while it is so constructed as to withstand the pressure of the water at this depth, it will have to be bal anced accurately when tried out.
 If it proves successful at the Con- necticut summer resort, and the makers do not feel the least doubt but WIldI IL WILL, Ono OI IIe OIneT WILL go to Detroit, Mich, to make arrange ments. Then the apparatus will be shipped to that city where it will be put to actual use in Lake Huron.
 It is the intention of the owners 10 use this in re-claiming lost ships. Their first test will probably be upon an old ship which lies in over 300 feet of water in Lake Huron. The vessel was sunk many years ago and in addition to containing a rich cargo of copper it has about S500,0O0 worth of silver money in the hold, as it was a pay ship for the Michigan copper mines. Already three divers have lost their lives in vain attempts to secure this wealth.

RAISES DISCOUNT RATE TO TEN PER CENT.
Rush on Bank Of England Con-
 tinucS---Cro Increases.

London, Aug. 1.-The Bank of England today raised it's discount rate to 10 per cent.
 The scenes witnessed at the Bank of England yesterday during the rush to obtain gold in exchange for bank notes, were repeated this morn- Ing, but on a still larger scale. A few people who had been too late to get currency yesterday afternoon spent the night in the vicinity of the bank and reached the quadrangle at daybreak so as to be first in line to- day The majority of people, how ever, came to the city in their usual lelsurely manner and went to the bank at the customary opening hour.
 The crowd increased as the morn Ing passed, and an hour after the opening some 800 persons were lined Mp. while the streets nearby were filled with curious onlookers.
 Made Special Policemen.
 The bank porters had been sworn in as special policemen so that they could more easily handle the crowds and in case of necessity, arrest dis turbers. A strong force of the city police also was on duty to deal with the crowd outside the bank premises. Although some of the people were 2 little impatient to get their money 80 as to proceed to country and sea- eide resorts for their usual holiday sat the beginning of August, the first Monday of which is a national holi-. day. there was nothing which could be described even as excitement.
 Many Women in Line.
 ;. It was noticeable today that the line of people was largely made up Of clerks and included many women who had received their wages in notes and wanted to change them into gold, as they realize that with a continu- Ance of the crisis notes would be- come unchangeable.
 At holiday resorts notes are usually refused and in fact in London res- taurants and theaters notes are changed at the best of times only for customers and others who are known personally so that persons with pock- cts full of paper money often find themselves unable to buy anything.
 Causes No Excitement.
 The closing of the National Penny bank whose customers are mostly working people, caused no excitement Whatever. Not a person appeared in front of the head office. A similar quiet prevailed at other banks and there was no sign of run.
 Throgmorton street, where stock brokers usually assemble, was desert ed today, the brokers having gone away for the holiday. In fact the traffic to the holiday resorts was heavier today than 1t had ever been, many who had intended to take short friDST to fffe continent haviner Aecided to remain in the British Isles
 The Baltic Mercantile and Shipping Exchange is to be opened on Monday. an unprecedented occurrence on a bank holiday.

paid on the common stock of the cC7u- pany since our connection with it a matter of at least ten or twelve years and only $7oo, ,o00 has been paid on the preferred stock. the company volun- tarily increased the wages of it's miners last year by a total amounting to SS00,000 a year, and of its steel em- ployes by a total of S250. 900 a year.
 in addition to the above" the state ment continued, the only matter which has been raised by the union is the unioniZing of the company'S camps. On this question of the open shop, namely, the right of every American citizen to work on terms satisfactory to himself, without securing the con- sent of the union. l reiterated to pr. Foster what I had said in my examina- ton before the committee mines and mining in Washington few weeks ago-that we regarded this as a, mat ter of principle which could not be arbitrated.
 Tn reply to his request for some suggestion as to how the strike could be terminated, we said to Dr. Foster that if the president would make a public statement that the federal troops were being sent to Colorado for the purpose of enforcing obedience to the law and securing to every citizen the right guaranteed to him by the constitution to be protected in his fife ana I1DefIN, whether ne chooses lO work as member of union or not, it would go far to terminate the de- plorable conditions which now exist.
 Tt was a source of profound regret to us that our conference with Dr. Foster did not result in any suggestion looking toward a solution of the diff culty.
 ''In order to correct an impression which seems to have gained currency, I desire to re-State what was fully stated in the congressional eXamina,- ton. namely, our position with refer ence to organized labor. We do not question the right of any workmen to freely associate themselves in unions for the furtherance of their common and legitimate interests, but we do assert the equal right of an individu al to work Independently of a union if he so elects. We are contending against the right of unions to impose themselves upon an industry by force. by assault and murder. and not against the right of men to organize for their mutual benefit.
 The impression has been created that if we would agree to sbumit to the unionizing of the camps of the Col orado Fuel and Iron Company this entire trouble would be ended. The public generally does not seem to con- sider whether not this is a right or fair demand and in the interest of the employees of the company as a whole What would become of the great ma jority of it's workers were such sur render to be made? All of its loyal
