FRUIT GROWERS NEED.

Representatives Of the state expert
mental station are touring the eastern
and southeastern part of the state with
view to inspecting the fruit orchards
and vineyards to learn actual condi-
tons there so that the station can be
Of more practical benefit to the fruit
growers. The station has been OF no
little service in the past and probably
will be able to do even more good In
the future in the way of pointing out
ways to improve the yields. The great
est need of the fruit grower at present
however, is not better crops but bet
ter conservation OF crops. A coopera-
tive system for harvesting, sorting,
Grating and distributing the yield
would mean a great increase in the
revenue to be derived from an orchard
or vineyard. Practical orchardists, II
they turned their mind to 1t, could
work out a plan whereby they could
collect their crops and haul them to
central warehouse where sorting and
Grating could be done to much better
advantage than at the fields. The
farmer would be relieved Of much
work, the crops would be conserved In
stead of wasted as is now the rule,
and markets would be found for thous
ands Of bushels of fruit that now rot
on the ground under the trees because
thu farmer is too busy to gather, sort,
crate and sell 1t himself.

RETURNS HOME TO
COMMIT SUICIDE

Wapello, July 21.--Chapman B. Cox,
a former resident of Wapello, returned
to his old home Sunday morning and
Sunday afternoon hanged himself
from the frame work of new building
being erected across the river from
this place
Cox had been in poor health for
some time and was apparently in a
hopeless respondent and nervous state.
Written or the back of an envelope
found in the clothing of the suicide
were these words. II am insane; have
been for four weeks"
1t Is believed. that Cox had deter
mined upon self-destruction and re-
turned to Wapello for final visit
with his two sons who have lived here.
Neither of them was in Wapello Sun
day, the oldest, Lewis, having gone to
Cedar Rapids for the day, and the
younger, Clayton, being employed in

GETTING AWAY WITH IT.

HueTta is said to have shipped sew
eral millions of dollars out of Mexico
before depriving that country of his
disinterested services.
Diaz did the same thing. The sew
eral Mexican officials who have gone
to Paris and elsewhere for the good
of their country" have all been enabled
to live considerably better than the
poems of Mexico.
In fact, being president Of Mexico on
the old autocratic plan seems to be a
good deal like the job Of supplying the
thriller for a circus performance.
Its a good trick, II you can do it,
as a popular vaudeville performer used
to say. And If you can get by without
a broken head, the rewards are quite
substantial.

THE VOTE HUNTING BUSINESS.

Hardly anything that we have said
about the shams and fakes of the sen.
ate is as severe reflection On that
body as the treatment accorded Mr..
Warburg and Mr.. Jones. These are
men of ability, character and standing.
What they are is absolutely known
and could be ascertained by any
intelligent reporter In half an
hour. Their fitness for the positions
on tie federal reserve board at the
head OF the new banking system Is al
together unquestionable, and their pre-,
sence there Is altogether desirable.
But our politicians are essentially vote
getting animals, as some writer has
put it, 50 these men must go down to
Washington and be paved over by a
village minded senate committee which
proceeded as If inquiring into country
church choir scandal. Mr.. Jones en-.
dured it, but Mr. Warburg refused, anu
the country risks losing his invaluable
services SO that few senator's can 60
on the stump this fall and ,brag how
they slowed up that foreign plutocrat.
Swinish methods in handling approp,
riations and asinine methods in hand
ling appointments are two reasons why
our countrys business Is SO expensive
and SO badly, done.-Colliers. ~.
