 The commission now has concluded its study of the navy yard situation on the Pacific coast, and it's report went to congress today with the ap- proval of the president. It says an urgent necessity exists for a new yard of efficient size and equipment to ac- commodate the entire Pacific fleet. Proposed sites at San Diego, Los An geles and at the mouth of the Columbia river are specifically rejected, and the board concludes that the Mare Island yard on upper San Francisco bay, while valuable for industrial purposes, cannot be developed as . fleet base.
 Four sites on San Francisco bay have been examined, those at Hunters Point, Alameda, Goat Island and Rich mond-A1bany. The board reserved Judgment as to which Is preferable, and asks funds to permit further study, but 1t is insistent that an ap- propriation be made promptly for pur- chase of whichever of the four it finally decides upon.

Orchardists who have sprayed real ize without exception that there are tremendous profits to be obtained in fruit growing by spraying and that for every dollar spent four or five will come back. This of course providing the work is properly done in a thor ough way at the proper time.
 w B. Chapman in southern Mis- souri has this to say of spraying re- suits the past season: "I have an or chard of Il acres, sprayed twice and sold my apples to the people in the country for $1140- Had I received my sprayer at the right time I should have made more. as I have scab and blotch on my fruit. This is nothing compared with what some others have done, but before sprayed my orchard I sold $400 worth year."
 This is not an exceptional experi- ence by any means. but it is well worth noting. The fact that one sea- sons spraying of II acres of orchard increased the value of the fruit to the extent of $740 ought to encourage ev- cry doubtful owner and decide the
