PACKING APPLES REALLY
AN ART

The Duchess and similar early
varieties of apples must be
picked before they are mellow,
if they are to be shipped. Pick
the apples carefully by hand in
to a clean basket, preferably one
lined with burlap, and take to
a cool shed or cellar to be packed.
The standard apple barrel is the
best package for most of the
Minnesota fruit.
''There are three steps in the
packing Of a BARREL" says w. G.
Brierley of the Minnesota Col
lege of Agriculture. "The first
is the facing; second, the filling;
and third, the failing. After the
bottom is taken out and the nails
f1attened, well-graded apples,
which are representative Of the
barrel, are arranged in rings,
stems down, on the face head
of the inverted barrel. They
should fit closely, After this
layer is in place, a second can
be put in or not, as desired. Fill
the rest of the barrel with we'll
graded fruit. After each half
bushel is added, shake the bar
rel gently but firmly to settle
the fruit and to fill all spaces.
When the fruit is within about
two inches of the top, even off
md then finish the pack, called
failing, by building up the end
two or more inches above the
chimes. Put the cover on, with
or without a cushion, and then
use a press to force the cover
into place. Do not neglect to
do this thoroughly because ap-
pies shrink, and unless tightly
packed they will bruise, badly.
Some of the fruit will be bruised
but not so much as if packed
loosely. Nail the head securely,
and mark on it the name Of the
variety, the grade and your own

RATES ON CITY LIGHTS
Council and Traction Co. Represent
alive in Conference.

Oskaloosa city council met in ap
pointed session Friday evening for
hearing on the subject OF light rates
with representatives of the Oskaloosa
Traction & Light Company.
Following the appointment of a
special committee, several weeks ago,
to investigate the rates for current
charged in Oskaloosa compared with
the cost for similar service in other
towns the size of Oskaloosa.
Feeling its inability to cope with
the problem, the committee called in
an expert, Mr.. ]. B. Hill of Iowa City.
electrical engineer and they went in
to the intricacies of the investigation.
Arrangements were made some
time since to have a meeting between
the council members and representa-.
tives of the company for a general
conference relative to adjustments in
rates for service.
The Traction and Light Company
was represented in last nights meet.
ing by Mr.. Thompson of the Des
Moines office, A. H. R. Jackson, in
charge of the local properties, and
James A. Dewitt, local attorney for
the light company. Mr.. Hill was
present and acted as spokesman for
the council. ......
Both sides were at a disadvantage
for a time. Mr.. Thompson, speaking
for the Light Company, did not know
what the city was asking for or ex-
pected The city on the other hand,
If indeed it knew what it wanted, was
at a loss what to ask for or how to
proceed. Some members of the
council were for leaving the matter
to the special committee for further
adjustment on the morrow. Mr.. Hill
asked Mr.. Thompson if the Electric
Light company had anything to pro-
pose, any offer to make, in the line
OF concessions on existing ates.
This opened the way to terms of
common understanding between the
principals and progress resulted. Fol-
lowing a consultation among council
and more talk the council
was adjourned and the session re-
solved itself into a meeting of "a
committee of the whole" to which
the representatives Of the company
were made party. Council members
and company men got together upon
common ground and the matter was
discussed informally, pro and con.

FIRE At SOUTH HALL
Considerable Damage Is Done To
Penn College Boarding House.

Just before noon today an alarm
was turned in and the fire depart
ment was called to South Hall at the
head of North c street This prop
erty is a part of the Penn college
group and was used as a boarding
and rooming house for the students.
The fire caught from a defective fiue
in the kitchen annex on the west side
of the building and by the time the
department arrived the attic of the
extension and main building was
pretty we'll involved, and at one time
looked as though the entire building
was going. From the attic the fire
worked it's way down to the lower
floors at the rear but after the sec
ond line of hose was added, the fire
was soon under control.
The lower floors were pretty well
water soaked, but otherwise there
was little damage. The college stu
dents and others saved practically all
of the furniture and contents of both
the first and second floors and are
entitled to considerable credit for
their work. The piano was taken
out and covered with a tarpaulin and
so was protected from injury. The
attic aud roof will have to be entirely
replaced and the interior repaired .
The damage was probably about $500
and was covered by insurance.

That Bail of Each Be Placed

Chicago, Dec. 4.-Fifty.four men
were indicted, each forty-six times, by
the November grand jury. They are
charged with being labor sluggers,
crooked business agents of unions,
manufacturers participating in the
crooked work or as other members
of unions who conspired to do an IL.

T Eleven Of the men indicted surren.
dered themselves to the police as soon
as the return of true bills before Chief
Justice Burke of the criminal court
was made known. A dozen others had
been taken ON warrants sworn out
earlier in the day.
All were admitted to bail.
Assistant States Attorney Charles
Center Case, Jr., has asked that bail
be $4,000 for each defendant in
view of the multiplicity of offenses
charged. ''s
In effect the indictments number
2,4S4. Against each individual there
are 6,946 counts. The punishment in
each count varies from $500 fine to
ten years in the penitentiary.
b The accusations grow out of the
extortion, vandalism, smuggling and
Wholesale terrorism which certain
band Of law-breakers is alleged to
have visited upon the building trades
of Chicago for years.
In brief the series of accusations
sets forth this condition, as explained
by States Attorney Hoyne. who car
ried the investigation through:
THE city of Chicago was divided
into nine districts, each presided over
by a car. This was done by the
Painters District Council No IA.
Each car had the sole power for
his district Of putting onto the black
mail or unfair list the names of peo-
pie to be blackmailed and the sole
power of taking those names off.
Not even the other eight czars or
business agents had the power to
take off a name from any individuals

ers wanted victims name on the

The unfair lists were amended
from day to day, numbered and sent
to the leaders in the different dis.
tricts, to glass sellers and to insur-
ance companies. When blackmail had
been paid or the trouble had been
settled satisfactorily, the czar OF the
