Men who Shot Officer Mcpherson are
Being Sought with unremittins
Labor by officers of the
Law.
NOTHING DEFINITE YET
All the Fish Caught in Drag Net are
Being Investigated minutely,
But One by One are
Discarded.

The hunt for the two burglars who
shot Officer Mcpherson is going on
with undiminished energy, and has
reached really mammoth proportions
Chief Hennemann and County AT
torney McManus are busy day and
night working out clues, verifying all
bies and the like, and several men
have had every minute of their actions
that Saturday night examined with
microscopic care.
Every time one of the many men
locked UP tells a lie. he is made a
real suspect thereby, and nothing is
overlooked in checking him UP.
One by one, men gathered hp N the
drag net have been released as clearly
not concerned in the crime OF early
Sunday morning, but others are still
held for further investigation Usually
there is plenty 20 hold them on inden-
nitely, or until the investigation gets
past them and they are let out OF the
net.
Withal, there is no name that can be
mentioned today as charged directly
with the attempted burglary OF the
clothing store and the shooting offthe
policeman.
Mcpherson a Brave Man.
A detail little bothering al hrst
was cleared up today. The revolver
OF Officer Mcpherson was found west
of the scene of the shooting in the al
ley, while the policeman staggered
east 10 Fourth street
As he became able TO talk more, NC
Pherson told how he threw his gun at
the retreating burglars after emptying
il ar them.
Mcpherson Is being praised by
everybody for his nerve and courage
in the very hot place in which he sud-
denly found himself. He kept his
head, fred as long as he had cart
ridge 10 shoot al the two men, pep
pered the window al which one was
with good Workmanship, and then
walked bleeding almost to death, 10
Fourth street. His courage at the hos
pital also caused much praise from the
St Joseph nurses and the city authorl-
ties who interviewed him about the
shooting.
Officer Elmer Mcpherson is the son
of Clay Mcpherson and was boy in
Hamilton before the family came 10
Keokuk. He was once a motorman on
the Keokuk street cars. He. lives in

Results Of Spraying
Orchard Show in Dem
onstration at LeGrcnd

The wisdom of spraying apple trees
Is shown in the report OF the work on
the county demonstration orchard, at
LeGrand. this season. A public dem
onstration, at the time of the, apple
harvest n week ago, attracted wide at
tention. II. $, Herrick of Ames, ex-
planning the methods of spraying and
comparing the results as actually Sc
cured In the orchard. a detailed
statement of the work since has been
issued which shows that sprayed trees
viii yield fully three and one-half
times as much fruit as the unsprayed
trees, and sprayed apples are selling
for twice the price of unsprayed apples.
The Wealthy apple trees of the dem
onstration orchard gave a net gain of
Sl2,72 per sprayed tree over those not
sprayed. Tho cost OF the spray ma
terial, labor. depreciation on spray
pump outfit amounted TO 81 cents per
tree. Two sprays were put on during
damp and misty weather.
The demonstration showed that the
average sprayed tree produced thir-
teen times as much clean fruit as did
the average unsprayed tree. An aver
age sprayed tree showed a yield or
ST7& pounds. or rs bushels, of which
e1Ss pounds, or 74.3 per cent was of
sound apples. S9S pounds or 22.9 per
cent, scabhy,94 pounds, or ~ per cent
wOrmy. The unsprayed trees averaged
lCJls pounds of 90 bushels, of which
2lih pounds or ISL per cent was of
sound apples, s2& pounds or 1911 per
cent scabby. and l2A pounds OF lilo
per cent wormy. The sprayed apples
are worth at the present time about ~
a bushel and the unsprayed apples not
over 81 a bushel. 1t will be noted that
this gives a total net gain of Sl2.I2 per
sprayed tree over the unsprayed tree,
figuring the labor cost of spraying at
80 cents, material 81 cents, and depre-.
citation on spray pump is cents.
Spraying pays and every one hav-
ing an orchard of the right size can
find time to do the spraying. Spraying
demonstration records show that on
the average the first two sprays in the
home orchard can be applied when 1t
is absolutely too wet to work in the
fields. All information on spraying
as well as securing spraying supplies
and equipment can be secured at the
county agents office.

GAS HOUSE ROOF DAMAGED.
Blaze in ROOF Causes S'aht Loss-C
Other Small Fire.

Prompt discovery of fire in the roo,
Of the gas house of the Iowa Railway
and Light Company at 2:15 Sunday
morning was responsible for minirniz-
ing the loss to the property. rs the
roof was very dry, and had the fire
got good start heavy damage very
likely would have resulted. The fire
department got the fire under control
with thirty five gallons Of chemicals
and the damage will not be over SO o'
SIS. The fire is believed TO have been
caused by sparks from the retorts.
Saturday afternoon at 4:20 the de-
partment was called TO the f. J. Farm
er home. 500 Lee street, where two
skillets containing grease became over
heated In the oven of a gas stove and
set fire to the stove. The stove prac-
tically was ruined. and the kitchen
damaged somewhat by greasy smoke.
