The Adjutant General vindieated

Adiutant General Ingalls, earthquake specialist has vindicated in a dispatch rom Pisa Italy describing the seismic horror of northern ItaIv on September T. The adjutant general in month ago. differentiated earthquakes noisy" and quiet" or horizontal and vertical" He had in mind an earthquake he had experienced in the Phil ippines noisy tunultous earthquake It was also vertical" earthquake
 The adiutant general was assailed by two schools of critics to one of which earthquake is earth c,,ake and nothing more; holding that earthquakes differ one from another only degrees of violence The up and down and sidevTise motions, it was claimed by this school all in the adjutant gen erals imagination
 The other school more cautious did dispute the adiutan generals differentiation but found fault with his nomenclature Instead of sidewse or hori zontal movement he should have said lateral" and for vertical" he should used the word 'undu- Iatng."
 We are prepared by means of this Pisa b,errarn to confound both schools critics We shall quote exact language "The earthquale shock here was preceded by deep rumblings and was followed by vertical and horizontal earth tremors which lasted thirteen seconds"
 what have the superficial experts and the purists A say now? If there earthquake specialists any ,ers tbev are to be found in Italy. regard Pisa as an earthquake authority second only to Los Angeles and the Angeles earthquake is different f~or, any other so modernzed and improved, fitted 4+b baII-bearings and otherwise so equipped that .bere can be no comparison between it and the one inc adjutant general was talking about or that de-

IMPRESSIONS OF A 4 TRAVELLING EDITOR

 know now why it rained so little In the Salt River valley this season. The water was being saved up for the country lying between Western New Mexico. this region and points beyond toward the rising sun. There has been a downpour here every day and night for week. The country roads are impassable: bridges are out. There is another storm coming now. They say it is still wetter in Oklahoma and Kan sas and prayers for drouth are offered up by the Wichita Eagle
 This is a presidential year when commonly the people get excited and knock off everything else to speak of politics. Since leaving Phoenix l have spent two days and three nights on trains and have talked with a score of men. Except for a conversation l had on Sunday night out of Phoenix on the state situation, I have not heard the subject of politics mentioned. Not once has there been the slightest allusion to Cox. Harding or the League of Ma tions.
 Most of the men I have met are resi- dents of the south-uf this state or the states beyond and are presumably democrats But that is only a geo graphical presumption. It is only cer- tain that they were not interested in politics. The nearest approach to that subject was the statement by one man that he had attended the San Francisco convention.
 There is q little political seething in this place. This congressional district the Eighteenth, is said to be 90 per cent democratic-a percentage slightly in excess of that of the Salt River valley cotton crop which was only S7 when I left.
 The most one hears is in criticism of Wilson and the League of Nations. Neither is popular. This situation en- courages L. P. Loomis the republican candidate for congress to hope-not that he will be elected-Mr. Loomis is not insane and he knows democrats but that the republicans will this year make a showing ething they have never done in this district or anywhere else in Texas.

I had as a travelling companion from Ash Fork to Winslow, year old Mabel Dixon on her way to a convent school in Albuquerque. She had been visiting her grandmother in Phoenix. She had doll about two inches shorter than herself. It cost $75 including the fixtures she. said. One toe was gone Mabel borrowed my overcoat which she folded carefully and placed in the op- posite seat as a pallet for the doll . Then she appointed me a. dry nurse for it and went away She was, by the way, a travelling companion for the other thirty five occupants of the car as well

MATCHMAKER TALLY
 RESENTS RUMOR IF "F|XED' CONTESTS

Sporting Editor. Arizona Republican:
 I will appreciate very much the pub lication of the following in your treas ured columns. (Signed) NJ. Nj. Tally.
 Tt has been brought to my attention indirectly that a spirit of suspicion pre- vails among few people as to the va lidity of the wrestling matches held at Tally's arena. Io other words. few have made the statement that the matches are all pre- arranged.
 T wish to state very frankly that any and all reports concerning my ad- vance knowledge to the final out come of these matches are absolutely erroneous. untrue and without founda- tion in fact. and are not made by those who know the finer points of wrestling or the promoting end of the game.
 gro begin with. there is no reason whatever for a promoter fixing match unless he is betting on the out come, one thing successful pro- moter will never do, as there Is notn that will kill the game as quick and. personally. I deplore betting on the matches that I promote, as I feel sure that betting alone has caused the state ments and reflections on the game that I refer to.
 T wish that I had it within my power to stop all betting on these matches. I wrestled ten years myself and have promoted good many matches and have attended practical ly all of the important matches in the past ten years and I have yet to make my first bet on a match.
 The statement has been made by some that Sauer could not be beaten in Phoenix, inferring that I have all the matches prearranged. Such statements ts as those are not only without founda tion; they are silly. Anyone who would i think just a minute would know that anyone who can beat Sauer would be q i better drawing card than he from the simple fact that he is not a mixer like Grant. who has such a following here, or Clapham. who gets out and gets acquainted with the people. The majority of the fans here would be glad to see either of the above men = toned win. If would be to my interest financially. Then, where is the argu ? ment that I am fixing these matches for Sauer to win2 I brought him here to wrestle because I knew that he is one of the best men in the game and as soon as I find some one his weight that can beat him. that per son will be my card until he meets with similar fate.
 T understand that it was said by a few who attended the Sauer Miyake match that I fixed the match that | night on the st9<e at the time I talked to Sauer and Mivake. The referee was present and heard what I said to Mi wake. and the only thing I have to say in regard to these statements is that l am not 'peeved but pity such judg- ment.
 "The stipulated rules of catch as | catch can wrestling allow me to talk to the contestants and to referee the match if I see fit. and l reserve the right to use the authority given me by the rules, and no one but the gam bling element should object
 ''In conclusion. I wish to say that have done my best to put on clean
 honest wrestling with high class gen i tlemen for contestants. and with the support of the good people of Phoenix l will make it still better"

CANADIAN. Tex. Sept 8.-I have not been subsidized by the Harvey feeding system. It has exacted from me a, dollar whenever it fed me and 1t fed me d dollars worth. So we are quits But there is a feature of it's service which I believe has never been given publicity. I discovered it acci- dentally the other morning at Ash Fork A tired woman arriving on a west bound train entered the breakfast room. She had evidently passed q sleepless night. The cause of her in somnia was apparent-a squalling in fant. Manager Hayford took the child from her. The transfer surprised it into quietude and before it could get under way again he was showing it the bright fixtures of a chandelier and other points of interest about the room. He soon had it laughing. Meanwhile the mother was eating in peace and resting When she had finished, she approached the manager to recover her offspring. When it saw her coming it whirled in the managers embrace, threw its arms about his neck and protested against any interruption of their recently established relations They had to pry it loose and it was carried out squalling again.
 I was told that it is a part of the managers business so to relieve wearied mothers; that he possesses a certain hypnotic power over fretful babies and that that is power encour- aged and developed all along the line of Harvey houses. Gro the business office: Don't use adv" or "cut off, rule' here.)

The finest peach that any man ever
saw was the one away at the end Of
the topmost limb where it could not
be reached without breaking the tree
and possibly the mans neck. OF
course, like the fish that got away 1t
isn't really any finer than some other
peach. but it looks that way and
causes a great deal of unhappinesS.
Then, there is another very sad
sight. A limb breaks under the weight
Of a great many fine peaches, and the
fruit you had expected to put to such
excellent use shrivelS and goes to
waste.
And the saddest thought Of all is
that both disasters could have been
prevented by proper pruning Not
every peach grower realizes the I'M
portancc of pruning in its relation
to his bank account or to his table
supply of fruit, if he is growing only
Tor home use. However, large orchard
owners usually follow more or less
closely some plan or system even
though they may have no clean-cut
conception of just what their plan IN
wolves. The owner Of few trees
frequently goes at it more haphaz-
ardIy than does one growing fruit on
commercial scale
The principal objects sought in
pruning, according to the United
States department Of agriculture
pomoIogists, are: To modify the vigor
of the tree; to keep the tree shapely
and within bounds; to make the tree
more stocky; to open the tree top to
admit air and sunshine; to reduce the
struggle for existence in the tree top;
! 10 remove dead or interfering
branches; to renew the yigOr Of the
tree: to aid in stimulating sufficient
new wood growth and the develop
ment of fruit buds; to secure good
distribution of fruit buds throughout
the tree; to thin the fruit; to induce
uniformity in the Mpening Of the
fruit; to make thorough spraying pos
sible: to facilitate the harvesting Of
the fruit.

Prune in Early Spring.

IN general, the proper time to prune
peach trees is during the dormant
period. preferably in late winter or
early spring just before growth starts,
except in regions where bleeding from
wounds is likely to occur, In such
regions it should probably be done
In early winter. But conditions and
| the object Of the pruning must be
considered in each case.
/ If The pruning operations are very
extensive it may be necessary to prune
| throughout the winter whenever the
weather is suitable for men to work
| in the orchard If the fruit buds are
endangered during the winter by ad-
verse temperatures ii may be adYlS-
able to delay pruning as much as
economic conditions permit until set
fled spring weather arrives. This is
osueCially advisable if heavy heading
back or the previous seasons growth
is desirable for the sake of the tree,
since if a large proportion Of the fruit
buds are killed it may be best for
the prospective crop not to cut back
heavily.
During the dormant period, between
the first and second year. the first
years growth, provided it has been
thrifty and vigorous should be
headed back rather heavily
Perhaps one-haf or two-thirds Of
the growth should be removed. How
ever, this needs TO be considered with
view to: The symmetry Of the tree
IT'S strength and vigor, and its future
development. In orderf 90 provide for an
omen. well-formcd head in later years,
If may be necessary to thin ont some
OF the smaller, secondary branches,
In doing this, however, provision must
be made for uniform distribution of
limbs so spaced that the open top de-
sired will be insured, yet leaving the
main limbs with an ample number OF
secondary branches,
Pruning the second and third years
| does not differ in principle from that
of the first At each pruning the pre-
vlous seasons growth is headed back,
though perhaps not quite ms much as
AT the first pruning. This, however
win depend upon the character Of the
growth and the condition Of the tree
/ If IT is stocky and strong, less heavy
heading back will be required to serve
the end in view, but long slender
spindlng growth should be shortened
back as severely after the second or
third season as nt the earlier pruning,
