Types of Sorting Tables.

The apron table and the canvas or

exclusively where the fruit is graded
in the orchard and they are also used
to large extent In packing houses.

Picking Utensils Used.


Annie growers use a variety of pick
ing utensils some of which are given
special approval. 1t is generally adj
vantageous in removing the crop, to
use both sacks and round half-bushel
baskets as the latter are especially
convenient for gathering fruit near
the ground. while the sacks can be
used best when the picker stands up
right. I'm using sacks. special care
must be taken to avoid hruising the
fruit. In cmptying either the basket
or the sack the apples must not De
dropped. If basket is used, it should
be lowered TO the bottom of the lug box
or other receptacle and inverted gen
fly. One type of sack is constructed
with drop bottom, so that the fruit
can be emptied without bruising.
Efficiency in picking depends con
siderably on the use of ladders of the
proper type. Several varieties are
commonly employed Stenladders are
especially satisfactory when working
in small trees and when picking from
he lower branches of larger trees.
Where the crop is packed over ia
hles that are moved about the orchard,
the fruit is usually carried in the
picking utensil to the packing table.
While this Is commonly done by the
pickers, such practice should be
avoided. Certain members of the crew
should he assigned as carriers and
they should also furnish the pickers
with empty receptacles.
III small orchards, when weather Is
favorable, apples are usually packed
In the open. portable equipment being
used hut In large orchards and In
sections where the weather Is gen
orally unfavorable, the fruit is often
packed in central houses, tents, or
sheds. The use of packing houses
has largely increased in recent years
and is regarded as a favorable de-
velopment in the appleraising indus
try. These houses are to be found
In both large and small orchards.
They afford shelter for the accumula-
ton of unpacked fruit, which can be
handled further without interruption
due TO unfavorable weather. They al
so prevent damage to equipment and
packages because of rain or snow.
Where there is adequate shelter there
is better opportunity for installing

ing devices In small orchards. when

A Little Line Goes 9
 Long Way Some Times

Jack Perrin has lost faith in Kath- leen O'Connor's knowledge of palnis- try. One day at Universia1 City during a Hull in the filming of the new eigh- teenth episode serial. ''The Lion Man" in which the two are starring, Miss OConnor essayed to read the palm of Albert Russell, the director.
 Perrin watched the proceeding with unconcealed interest while Miss O'Connor predicted a long fruitful life for Russell, with the acquisition of much wealth and many children. The pretty star deduced this, she said, from a pronounced black line across the directors hand. Of course the line turned out to be from an eye brow pencil and disappeared when Russell slyly wiped his hand on the bosom of his trousers.
 Miss O'Connor tried to re-estab1ish herself as a paImist by interpreting the lines in Perrin's hand, but neither were able to take the proceedings seriously after that.

Norma Talmadge
 May Have Permanent
 Studio In Havana

Norma Talmadge, who has been
 spending three weeks vacation at
 the Hotel Seville at Havana, Cuba,
 has been received with the most as
 tonishing attentions ever rendered a
 screen star. On the day of her ar
 rival, there were flowers from forty
 six unknown admirers, filling every nook and crevice in her suite. Miss
 Talmadge has been receiving over a hundred letters day. at the Hotel,
 and the theatres have been decorated
 with gaily coIored banners, which look
 like a welcoming tribute to a re-
 turned war hero, but are, in fact, an-
 nOuncements to the public that all
 previous programs have been can-
 celled, in order to show only Talmadge
 Pictures during the screen stars per sonaI visit to Havana. Norma has been entertained by all the most prominent citizens, diplomats, and government officials, and has had a round of dances, dinners and enter tainments at country clubs, such as she has never known before in her busy career. "The way they cheer me when I modestIy step in my box at the race track,'' she writes to Beulah Livingstone, her personal re- presentative, sounds like the deafen- ing roar that went up in New York when Pershing rode down Fifth Ave! It makes me quite ashamed to feel how little I have done to deserve all this, and it makes me really afraid of the tremendous responsibility placed on my shoulders. I know,
 now, I must never give the public
 less than it has grown to expect Of me. I am deeply touched by this re- ception which is so out of proportion, to what I expected, and I am enthus- iasdcaliy spurred on to greater and better endeavor. As you know, my life has been so busy anG 50 retired I never had any idea Def Ire of what we screen stars mean as an ideal to the youth of the courrsry, and wouldn't give up this iitt1e trip to l Cuba, for anything in he world.

Comment by Residents.

Many of the club members present
said they agreed with DR.. Barr, and
Iex-Alderman Mccormick spoke on old
time experiences trying to get things
for the fourth ward.
The Rev. j. e. Cummings, founder
of the club, took issue with DR.. Barr
and said that ward had always been
treated like step-child by the rest
of keokuk, had never been given JUS
tice, nor what it deserved
Other speakers brought up the prob
lem always there of the extraordinary
difficulty OF building sidewalks and
streets on account of the rugged
topography of parts of the ward and
the impossihilities often OF getting
consent from some real estate own
ers
To Quiz the Candidates.
In the beginning of the session two
resolutions we're passed
One declared that the first objective
of the club Is the opening and build,
ing Of a street down the bluff about
J street, so workmen and teams can
get down to work at the factories
without long detour. A corrolary of
this is to be the asking Of the city
council to compel the street railway
to extend its tracks on Reid street to
the street built down the bluff.
The other resolution invites all can
didates for city offices to meet with
the club two weeks from last night
and declare how they stand on the
matters most interesting to the fourth
ward. John Aiken, having an en-
gagement for that night, was allowed
to do his part of the declaring last
evening He said he would make no
promises but use his best efforts for
the good of the fourth ward.
I! The club will endorse no candidate.
