UP AGAINST 1T,
FIREMAN ASKS
CITY FOR HELP

Declaring that he had been
forced to live for 20 months on
$500 donated by the city, Frank
l.. Gruidl, a fireman who was
overcome by smoke and flames in
the Shovlain Furniture store fire
last year. appeared before the
council Wednesday and asked for
relief.
Gruidl's lungs were weakened
by the smoke and he has ac-
quired tuberculosis. His wife
and baby accompanied him to the
council.
Because the fireman was an
extra man and not recognized
employed of the city, he cannot
receive a pension. He is forced
to live at a high altitude on Mt.
Tacoma, and no work can be pro-
vided for him.
I've had to live on SIS a
month, and it can't be DONE"
pleaded the fireman. 81 am desti-

TIDE HAS fun
WITH MACHlNE

A party of tourists from the
east who had never experienced
any of our Puget Sound tides,
drove their automobile along the
beach at Point Defiance park
Tuesday afternoon and left 1t
near the waters edge while they
picniced in the nearby woods.
While the party dined, the tide
came in. The little touring car
was picked up by the strong cur
rent that flows around Point De-
fiance park, and carried along
the beach to the very promotory
of Point Defiance.
There the party found their
car several hours later. The front
wheels hung over the edge of a
sharp decline in the beach. Wa
ter flowed around the entire car.
And the tonneau was filled with
herring!
1t was six hours later, when
the tide had fully receded, that
the machine was finally removed
from its perilous perch.

Extreme Styles Passing,

Women in the large eastern
cities have abandoned the extreme
styles and are wearing reason

ultra-conservative pattern.
This is the report of James
Mccormack, president of Nc
Cormack Brothers, who returned
this week from an extensive tour
of the large centers on the Allan

You don't find any extreme
styles among the women of the

a panic. Everybody seemed to
be able to live, but business was
absolutely dead. About all that
was doing here was the Northern
Pacific shops and foundry, and
the Old Town sawmill, and few
things like that. People moved
away, good many of them.
Some went out into the country
and lived on ranches.
Then along came the Klon-
dixie discovery. That didn't real
ly start anything In Tacoma, but
is helped business little and
made everybody feel hopeful, and
just about that time some fellow
came over from Seattle and
bought couple of lots down on
Broadway below 18th. and 1t was
put in the paper, and-bang, just
like that, people started to buy

COST OF LIVING
SCARS AT JAIL,

The cost of living has taken a
new turn.
II is affecting the price Of
meals in Tacoma's city Jail.
For 10 years prisoners in the
basement of the city hall have
been fed at rate of 8 cents per
meal, but now the price is going
up.
Ever since January 1, when
prohibition caused a decrease in
the number of city prisoners,
Chef James Shiel, official provid-
err of beans and bread at the city
jail, has been losing money. He
couldn't make both ends meet at
s cents.
Today the council passed an or
dinance calling for new bids for
feeding prisoners. 1t was done
that Shiel could increase his bid.
The chef had threatened to go on
strike IL he couldn't get more
money.
Shiel will raise his price con-
siderably.

trouble, the manner Of infection, and
from this knowledge perfecting meth

vent or control their spread. The
Maine farmers have been saved hun
dreds of dollars by the result of the
work Of their Experiment Station
plant DOCTOR" Methods of preven-
ton and control measures have been
worked out and this information dis
tributed to the farmers organizations
throughout the State by her Expert
ment Station reports, Agricultural Coll
lege teachings and her efficiently di-
rected County Extension Service.
Methods of prevention involve the
destruction of the causal organism, the
reduction of the number of organisms
or increasing the vigor of the plant so
it can repel the attack. By killing the
causal organism as it rests upon seed
some diseases may be partially and
completely controlled. Loose smut Of
oats; black leg; rhizoctonia and COM
mon scab Of potatoes can be con-
trolled in this way. Seed oats can be
easily treated by spreading them thin
ly on the barn floor and sprinkled
with solution made of one pint of
formalin to thirty gallons Of water
until thoroughly moist and then COW
cred with an old canvas or carpet to
retain the gas which kills the or
ganism causing the disease. Let stand
from six to twelve hours and remove
the covering and seed or stir occa .
sionally until they are dry and store
in clean bags or boxes until they are
ready for use. One gallon of the
solution will treat one bushel.
Formalin will cost about SO cents per
pint. Literature describing the con-
, troll of the most of our bad potato dis
eases can be secured Ivy addressing the
Maine Experiment Station at Orono,
| Maine.
| The Maine farmers should practice
plant sanitation as we'll as house or
barn sanitation. Plant diseases should
! be considered as contagious and some
thing that is to be avoided if at all
possible. While legislative enactment
may prevent their spread. their con-
troll and prevention would be more
easily checked by more enlightened
public sentiment regarding them. So
| long as diseases are regarded as nat
ural and inevitable no progress will be
made. A cooperative, aggressive pub
lie opinion on the part of the farmer
will do much toward eliminating one
of the causes for loss on the farm
Clean seed, clean soil and clean crop
