cooperative in spirit. 1t gives every
grower representation irrespective of

of capital which recognized experts
advise is necessary for the undertaking

proceeds of the fruit py-products, wher

the institution Of that sort of incum-

an enterprise, leaving its full credit
free for the purchase of supplies ano
other expenses. This solution of the
by-products problem again demon.
strates power of cooperation.
The by-products committee declared
in report following the meeting al
North Yakima, Dec. 5. that its genera
plan contemplates the formation of al
such plants into one cooperative associ

nounced that it is ready to furnish al

purposes at cost of merely actual ex

Orangeburg, Oct 11.-Chief Of
Police Jennings and his men got in
another good piece of police work last
night in the arrest of Glen Pride and
Charles Enloe, charged by w. Hoyt, a
jeweler Of this city, with highway
robbery. The arrests were effected
in less than hour after the theft had
been reported to the officers.
About 9.30 o'clock last night Mr.,
Hoyt, who conducts a jewelry store
on Broughton street, near Russell,
closed his place of business and start
ed to his boarding house. He had
not proceeded far before the bundle
he carried in his hands was snatched
away by white man, who took to
his heels. Hoyt, as soon as he could
find Chief Jennings reported the
crime and the chief got busy at once,
and under the description given him
by Hoyt soon had Pride in custody
Pride was searched and a number OF
diamond rings, valued at $4OO, are
said 10 nave been found on his per-
son. These, it is claimed, were iden-
titled by Mr.. Hoyt. On information
obtained from Pride, the chief ar
rested Charlie Enloe on charge OF
being implicated in the crime. En-
loe Is said to have then admitted that
he had been with Pride about the
time the robbery was committed.
The locality where Mr.. Hoyt was
robbed is well lighted and the crime
was therefore a desperate and daring
