PAGE SEVEN
Apples Most Valuable Fruit.

The apple is pre-eminent in the
household economy for no other fruit
excels it In culinary usefulness. 1t
graces the table In a far greater va
riety than any other fruit. OF all fruits
grown in North America, the apple
leads in amount and intrinsic value.
No fear Of an overproduction. however.
II the means of transportation and dis
tribution are perfected. What If we
do raise 125.000 carloads of apples or
100000 boxes a year? This is but
half a box TO q person not counting
what we export. That isn't very many.

Oldest Tin Mines

The tin deposits in the south of Eng
land are the oldest known workings in
the world. and perhaps those that were
next discovered and opened were In
Saxony and Bohemia. 1t is believed
that the manufacture of tinplate, or. as
1t is sometimes called, "terne-plate,"
was begun in Bohemia early In the
seventeenth century, that 1t spread
from there to Saxony. and it was In
troduced into England in the latter
half Of the seventeenth century.

Mans Mind Like a Garden.

A mans mind may be likened TO
a garden which may be i~ntelligently
cultivated or allowed to run wild but
whether cultivated or neglected, 1t
useful seeds are put in, then an
abundance of useless weed seeds win
fall therein and will continue t 0 pro-
duce their kind.-James Allen.

TAKE m Chair1

When one moves that So and So take
the chair. especially IL he is a Scot. he
should remember that at one time such
a thing was considered a right royal
luxury. In the middle ages q table
was only a board on trestles. there was
only one chair at the head of the board.
at which the host sat, the rest Of the
company sat on benches. This custom
was the origin of the expression re-
ferred to.

MAGAZINE HAS
CAR WRITEUP
Railroad Mans Monthly Contains
Large Picture Of Safety
Car Used on Ham,
lIton Line

The September issue Of the Rail-
road Mans Magazine contains a
Photographic reproduction of the new
safety car used by the Keokuk Elec-
trio company on its Hamilton line
and also a page writeup detailing
the commendable features of the car.
The photograph and material were
supplied by the Keokuk Electric COM
pany at the request of the magazine.
The picture was taken at the end OF
the line on Broadway in Hamilton.
Keokuk was one Of the first cities
of the country to use this new car
and 1t has proved satisfactory here.
The company is planning to recon
struct the cars used on the Keokuk
lines after the manner of the Blrney
or safety car, and will install all the
new safety devices.

CARMEN ENJOY
MIDNIGHT PICNIC
Something New In Amusement Line
Staged Here Saturday Night
Band Gives Con-
rerf

Something new in the amusement
line was staged here Saturday night
When In place of the usual monthly
meeting at the car barns, the car men
club enjoyed a midnight picnic IN
Rand park. The Eteness of.the hour
was due to the fact that the men
have to work late on the car lines,
Tut this did not interfere with the
festivities.
A band of seven pieces. secured for
the occasion gave a concert in the
band stand and following songs by the
members of the club and some short
talks, refreshments were served and
cigars passed. The band music at
tracted passing automobilists and be-
fore the program was concluded cars
were lined up all about the band
stand.
The car mems club has been in e4-
istence here for several years and
holds monthly meetings. usually in
the car barns, when the last car has
been run In and the men are off duty.
1t was formed because the men, being
on duty until late at night, were I'M
able to attend the meetings and out
ings Of the High Tension club in
which they are eligible for member
ship.

IOWA COAL TO
BE REASONABLE
Governor Harding Promises People OF
State VIII Not Be
Held Up This
Winter.

UNITED Press Leased Wise Service.l
DIES MONIES, Iowa, Aug. 13.-
Iowans will not be held up by coal
dealers and operators this winter.
This was the statement of Governor
Harding today following thorough
canvas of the coal situation in the
state. The governor met with the
state council of defense to thresh out
the problems of just coal prices for
this winter. 1T was announced that
Iowa producers, knowing the state
has power to confiscate the mines,
would most likely go easy in raising
the prices,
"If miners can go into the mines
and dig coal for $1.05-the average
price, per ton-why should the con-
sumner pay S." Harding said. There
Is too much profit for the operators.
Harding said he would leave for
the Chicago conference of governors
Wednesday night. He would not an
nounce his plans for the meeting In
Chicago. August 16.
While Harding and his council
were comforting at the state house,
John P. White, president of the Unit
ed Mine Workers Of America, was
In conference at downtown hotel
with seven Iowa miners union Off
Gals While the conference was in
connection with the coal situation,
White said neither he nor his col
leagues would have a statement to
make. He would not comment upon
the possibility of the confiscatfon 'of
coal mines by the government or In
dividual states
