ADDlrs Of Gold.

We have often heard people speak
of the profitable crops of fruits grown
in Colorado, California, Idaho, Oregon
or Washington, but here is fact right
at our doors that equals any of the
stories told Of the famous apple belts
Of Grand Junction, Hood River, We
natchee or elsewhere; (and, be il re-
mcmbered, that this was on Holt coun-
ty land, and without any "pampcring"
care or intensive culture that is in.
variably given TO Western orchards).
Last week Albert Kunkel, living one
mile south of town, sold his crop Of
Wealthy apples (siXty-thrce trees &C.
cupying one and one-fourth acres of
ground), TO G. V. Wickiser, of Craig,
for 5000 net cash; the buyer TO pick
and take the fruit from the orchard,
Mr.. kunkel having no expense what
ever, and Mr.. Wickiser, an experienced
buyer and picker, guaranteeing to pick
the apples without injury to the trees.
This is the fourth consecutive crop
of good sound apples that Albert has
received from his twenty acre orchard
mainly of winter varieties, which will
average him more than 500 per acre
per year uuTius tne TOUR years ne mas
occupied the place, having purchased
1t from the Samuel Spurrier heirs in
the fall of 1914.
Considering the moderate invest,
ment required, and the certainty OF
crops when the right varieties are
grown, and sprayed at nominal cost
we do not believe there is q spot OF
earth anywhere that will grow bette
apples, or produce more net profit OF
the investment, dollar for dollar, thar
can be done right here in Holt count!
and will be done by many of ouI
farmers when they awake to the op
portunities which SO many people hav
always imagined existed only in tn
Golden West"
Quit dreaming, young man, abou
the "green fields" afar off, and &c
hold of a tract of good Holt county sol
while 1t may yet be had at REASONABLE
figures. Set out q good commercia
orchard and "go-to-itw Raise plent
of chickens, hogs and corn. The '"hor
Of plenty" will smile upon you, and 1
your old age ysu will have no regret,

Earl BriCe Arrested on
Charge of Stealing Car

Deputy Sheriff Gillapsy reported
yesterday that a car had been aban-
doned in front of his home on Bloom
er street. The car bore Nebraska
license and when the Omaha depart
ment was notified, Detectives Dan
baum and Rich came across the river
and asked for the arrest of Earl Brice,
II years old. The car was taken from
the Blackstone garage, where the
Bluffs boy had been employed.
Brice was found at the home of his
grandmother, at SIS Damon street.
by Detective Peterson, who accom-
panied the Omaha officers. The bow
was concealed under a stack of bed
clothing. Detectives say he admitted
taking the car from the garage Sat-
urday night and came to the Bluffs
for a so-called joy ride, accompanied
by three other boys and girl The
car had been badly damaged, neces-
stating its abandonment.
Brice a year ago was implicated
in the theft of car belonging to w.
{. Grote of the Younkerman Seed
company and was held to the grand
Jury with three other boys. Two of
the boys entered military service and
the case was not pushed. In each
case the purpose was not theft, but
Joy riding. Young Brice was taken
to Omaha by the detectives.

FLYERS Journey
ON TO MILL CITY
FOR EXHIBITION
Two Strew Flowers on the
Newly Made Grave of
C0mrade Killed in
Flight.

The flyers of the American Brit
ish Aviation tour who gave their
aerial exhibition here Saturday af-
ternoon, flew away to Minneapolis
yesterday.
This little Sunday JOY ride of the
aviators is about 400 miles and they
make that distance easily in four hours
without speeding. Of course, if they
were in hurry they would do it in
three hours. The trip takes II or II
hours on that out-of-date contrivance,
the steam railway train, which we all
used to think quite rapid means of
motion few years ago. But now,--
bah, it's too slow.
The 10 machines did not leave to-
gether. They departed by ones and
twos throughout the day. The first
one spread its wings, buzzed its pro-
peller and sailed into the sky soon
after 7 o'clock in the morning. This
one had solemn duty to perform,
namely, to strew flowers on the new
ly-made grave of Major Ream, at
Homer, Neb., IA miles this side of
Sioux City. Major Ream started with
the tour but was killed in an airplane
accident as the machine in which he
was riding was approaching St. Louis,
10 days ago.
.Lieutenants Carroll and Connell in
a Curtiss Hispano Suiza machine car
ried the large bunch of flowers which
had been provided by Fred Hamilton
of Omaha. They were the first to
leave. They departed from the Fon-
tenelle before 6 o'clock in the morn
ing and an hour later disappeared in
the distance flying toward the north.
Other planes rose and headed to-
ward Minneapolis during the day. The
last of the 10 left the starting field,
west of Fairacres, at $3.50 o'clock in
the afternoon, being due in Min
neapolis at 7:30.
The trip to Minneapolis was made
il. two Jumps" as the aviators call
them. They all descended at Spencer,
Mimi, to replenish their gasoline sup
plies. Each machine carries enough
SdooHilC lol dDOuL lWc dHu Hall
hours of flying.
A few people watched them leave
the starting field here.
All the aviators were warmly
dressed in caps that leave only the
face visible, heavy coats and leather
coats outside of the others. Also
gloves. This warm dress is necessary
because at the height at which they
fly in going from city to city,-4,500
to 5000 feet, it is quite cold.
The big De Haviland machine which
was damaged when Lieutenant Kelle-
her landed here Friday, was shipped
to the factory for repairs. 1t was
uninjured except for the smashing
of its propeller and landing wheels.

TRADE
BOARD SCOREDBY
COMMERCE BODY
Usurpation, lnefficienCy and
Unjust Abuse of Business In
terests Charged in Let
ter to President.

Washington, Sept. l.-Usurpation Of
power, inefficiency and unjust abuse
of business interests are among
charges made against the federal
trade commission and laid before
President Wilson by the Chamber of
Commerce of the United States.
In a letter to the president made
public tonight by the organization,
the directors approve and submit a
report denouncing the trade commits
sion as an irresponsible body that
has lost the confidence of the public
and asking the president to remedy
this condition by filling two existing
vacancies in the membership with
men whose interest will be single to
the commissions work" The re-
port was prepared by the chambers
federal trade committee, of which
Rush c. Butler. a Chicago lawyer, is
chairman, 1t presents the following
seven charges;
The commission has undertaken
the exercise of functions beyond its
own jurisdiction to the detriment of
its proper usefulness,
Work Declared Incomplete.
"The commission has begun the
study of important situations but be-
cause of vacillating interest or for
other reasons not apparent has LETT
its work incomplete.
The commissions procedure, orig
inally orderly and appropriate, has
been changed without public notice
or notice to congress.
The commission has abused its
powers of publicity.
Prominent features Of the COM
missions recent food investigation
were surversive of common justice,
IN presenting information to con-
gress and the public the commission
has been needless of the accuracy and
frankness which its position and the
circumstances require.
"The commission has departed
from the fundamental purpose for
which it was established"
The report sets forth that it does
not undertake to criticise in detail
specific acts of the commission, but
rather to point out mistakes in prin-
ciples of conduct. The president is
assured that the chamber and its COM
mittee, which has followed the work
of the commission since its organiza-
ton three years ago, does not repre-
sent special business interests.
In criticising methods adopted dur
ing the recent investigation of the
packing industry, the report says,
special counsel (Frances ]. Heney)
was employed at $4,000 a year and
expenses, although it had been stated
to committee of congress that the
salary would be at the rate of $4,000.
"In this inquiry the commission Sc
lected documents already in its pos
session and had them presented to
it at public sessions by its special
counsel says the report, refusing
to permit concerns that were men
toned in the documents to offer any

Sunday is the Sabbath day, even

Sunday is the Sabbath day, even
with the circus.
The scriptural injunction that six
days shalt thou labor, but the sew
enth day." etc. is strictly observed un-
der the big top" of the Hagenbeck-
Wallace circus and only absolutely
necessary work is done. The six big
poles stand stark and bare--for they
are early set up to, get them out of
the way-and the huge canvas lies on
the ground ready to be pulled up the
first thing Monday morning.
Not even the wild animals are fed,
for it has been found that their health
is much improved if they fast one day
a week. And so Sunday was the day
chosen, for it has the added advantage
of giving the stock keepers and the
trainers a rest. The only exceptions
are the elephants, who get their reg
ular daily mea. None of the wild
animals is fed MORE than once day,
even throughout the week.
As for the 1000 people who ar
rived early Sunday morning with the
Hagenbeck-W Wallace circus, they
spend Sunday in abstaining from labor
as much as possible. Many of them
went to theaters Sunday; others went
to ball games.
The show used to carry chaplain,
and he used to hold regular religious
services in a tent on Sunday morn
ings. But since Rev. Cadesman Pope6
joined the colors, it has been found
impossible to find a successor for him.
There's a good job open for some
preacher who is dissatisfied with his
present salary.
Three hundred stars dot the field
of the huge service flag which flies
over the main entrance to the Hagen
beck-Wallace c.. Gus. Increasing diff
ficulty is being found by the man
ayers of the circus in securing labor.

wreck at Gary, Ind, on June q.
The shortage of labor is felt also
among the animal trainers. Emil
Schwyer, head of the lion trainers,
lost his chief assistant in the train

Wilson Criticised For
Attempt to Influence
Vote on Water Power

Washington, Sept. 1.--Action of
opposing the net investment clause of
the water-power bill was criticised to-
day by Representative Gillette of
Massachusetts,, acting minority lead
er, and other house republicans.
Referring to the presidents letter,
Mr.. Gillette said that Chairman Sims
of the interstate commerce commit
tee seems to think there should be
no legislation without first obtain
ing the views of the president" Rep
resentative Anderson of Minnesota
said some one "torpedoed the water
power committee"
Chairman Sims told the house that
he had introduced the bill on the sup
position that it met with executive
approval. An amendment introduced
by Representative Doremus of Michi-
gan, requiring the federal WATERFOWL
er commission which the bill estab-
fishes to give municipalities prior
rights to the requirements of develop
ment licenses, was approved by the
house

Patriotism Keynote Of
Labor Day Messages Of
Railway Union Heads

Cleveland, Sept. lit is a pleasure
to note the fact that on the approach
of Labor day we find organized labor
everywhere in earnest sympathy and
hearty cooperation with the aims and
objects of our national government"
said Warren S. Stone, grand chief en-
gineer, Brotherhood of Locomotive
Engineers, in a message to labor on
the eve of Labor day.
1--WE are proud of the unselfsh pur-
pose actuating the entry of the United
States into the present world war;"
the labor day message of Timothy
Shea, acting president of the Brother
hood of Locomotive Firemen and En-
ginemen, says, "and to the realization
of the noble ideals proclaimed as its
only motive in participating in this
appalling conflict we pledge our lives,
fraternity and our sacred honor to
the end that liberty, fraternity and
equality be established throughout
the world, politically, socially, econo-
mlcally and industrially."
