WONDERFUL,
SAYS MRS. BAKER
st. Paul Woman and Grand Daughter
Restored to Health After Attack
Of "Flu."

81 have seen anything more
wonderful than what Tanlac has done
for my little granddaughter and N.Y.
SELF" said Mrs. P. E. Baker Of 1924
Randolph Avenue, st. Paul, Mimi, in
a statement recently.
"I had such a severe attack of the
influenza I was confined to my bed
for three weeks, and after I got up I
was so weak that when I walked
around the house a little I became so
exhausted I would almost fall over /
had lost nineteen pounds and was a
mere shadow of my former self. My
nerves were so badly shattered the
least unusual noise would nearly run
me distracted, and my stomach was
in such wretched condition that after
eating l always felt stuffy and nau-
seated. I had awful cramps in my
stomach and frightful pains around
my chest.
$50 many of my friends had told
me of the wonderful results they had
gotten from Tanlac that I began TAX
ing it myself, and I started to improve
and gain in weight right away. I have
taken six bottles now and have gotten
back eighteen of the nineteen pounds
| lost and I am in absolutely perfect
health. Everything l eat agrees with
me and I am never troubled afterward
in any way whatever. My nerves are
Just as steady as can be and l am
sleeping soundly and can attend to my
homework now.
"Shortly after l contracted the in
fluenza my little seven-year old grand
daughter was taken down with it, and
as she had always been frail it went
so hard with her at one time we gave
up hope for her recovery. This attack
of influenza left her in a weakened
condition, she wouldn't eat anything
and l felt uneasy about her all the
time. As I had been taking Tanlat
and getting such fine results l knew
it would do no harm to let her try it
And to the surprise of us all it has
proved even more remarkable in he1
case than in my own. Today after tax
ing three bottles she is the very pic
ture of health and is as strong ano
happy as any child I yer saw in m!
life. We are deeply grateful to Tan
lac and will never be without it IL

ready on the ground continues az be-
fore. Putting a homeseeker on the
land is only the first step. He also is
helped with the expert knowledge OF
the agricultural department until he
il sufficiently acquainted with his
new conditions to insure his FARMING
success. Mr.. Leedy,. himself born on
an Indiana farm, has a complete
grasp OF farming conditions from st.
Paul to the Pacific Coast, and with the
organization he has at his command,
he makes it, his duty to see that no
homeseeker is left to haphazard re-
sources. For each new settler means
about $500. in revenue annually to the
railroad. Consequently. the sole aim
is to see that he makes o successful
farmer. Locating each farmer in that
part OF the country best adapted to
his ability and financial resources, are
important factors in this agricultural
immigration work.
The Department also devotes special
attention to the development work In
the irrigated districts in the state OF
Washington. The Importance of this
work is shown in the fact that in 1902
the first carloads of commercial apples
were shipped out Of the Wenatchee
Valley. Last year the commercial ap-
pie shipments from this district
amounted to 1880 carloads, a greater
production by 10000 boxes than the
/ entire state of New York, and more
apples than were grown in anv state
of the Union outside of Washington
In addition to- this there were shipped
| several thousand cars of soft fruits
and by-products. Forty million feet
of lumber were required to manufac
ture the boxes for this fruit crop. The
! development Of the fruit industry, as
we'll as kindred products of the irri
gated districts, such as alfalfa, live
stock, etc., is increasing vastly each
year. owing to the rapid development
of the new irrigation projects.

Charge of Conspiracy.

John O'Neill, a professional bonds-
man, and Fred Hughes, both of Wash

States Commissioner Isaac r. Hit
yesterday on charges of conspiracy to
defraud the Government and to evade
the national prohibition act, gave

The warrants charge they conspired
with four other men to withdraw
900 cases of whiskey from bonded
warehouses ostensibly for export pur-
poses and to sell it at the rate OF
500 a case.
1t is alleged the liquor was billed
from Pittsburgh to Baltimore, but
was sidetracked, removed in motor
trucks and reported stolen. Several
months ago Hughes brought replevin
proceedings to recover 1872 cases of
whiskey seized by the police and
revenue officers. Proceedings were
brought against him in Police Court
at that time for violation Of the pro-
hibition act.

lutely necessary for the conduct Of
the war. Last year, an appropriation
was asked for but failed.
TENTATIVE SITE CHOSEN.
James A. Wetmore, acting super.
vising architect OF the Treasury De-
partment. has had the preparation OF
the plans under his, direction since
the beginning and has worked out
plans that embody all the good points
OF the European archives buildings.
A tentative site for the proposed
building has also been selected, but
it's location is being kept secret by
the officials in charge OF the plans.
until Congress appropriates money to
buy the site.
According to Mr.. wetmore. the
utility OF the building Will be the
first thing considered. The need or
the building is very urgent at pres
ent, he said, and the architecture OF
the building could be left until some
future time. His proposition is to
build a structure that will take care
OF the public papers and spend the
appropriation in fitting up place
that will stand for all time and be
so constructed that records will be
free from deterioration, and filed so
that they would be accessible for his
torical research.
FIRST COST s1,5OOyOOO.
He would leave the architecture for
the future. and although he says the
building would look bad from the out
side for few years. the main object
would be accomplished-the erection
of a proper place to store the papers.
After building conditions become
normal he said. the outside architect
could be decided upon. and the build
ing could be finished without inter-
rupting the work of historical re-
search In any way injure the docu-
ments stored in the building.
Present plans call for building
four or six stories high, containing
about 100000 cubic feet, as provided
by Congress, and so built that II can
be enlarged to contain about 5000. 600
cubic feet. The building when en-
larged would occupy space about as
big as a city block. The cost OF
erecting the first building would be
about 81, SOC, 900. without allowing FOR
the outside architecture.

WATERPOWER
EXPERTS HERE
Executives of Great interests
Come to Confer With New
Federal Commission.

Executives, directors. and lawyers
representing the great power inter-
ests OF the country are gathered In
washington for a conference with the
newly created Federal waterpower
Commission.
The Administration OF the act pass
ed by the last Congress. after fifteen
years OF discussion, is intrusted TO the
commission, which has a large latitude
OF judgment and discretion, and 10
empowered TO establish a general pol
icy ana prescribe the regulations
under which this great public re-
source is to be developed by private
enterprise.
The commission itself is composed
or the three Secretaries of War, In
terror. and Agriculture, and ex-officio
members. The permanent organ of
Administration Is the executive per-
sonnel, consisting OF o. c. Merrill Of
the Interior Department executive
secretary; Col. William Kelly, OF the
army corps OF engineers, an engineer
officer. and Col. Lewis w. Call, re-
Gently assigned from the War Depart
ment as law adviser.
Merrill Is. In a large measure, the
author OF the act, and to him and his
associates of the executive personnel
the commission has largely delegated
the duties OF outlining the policies
and drafting the regulations under
which power companies are to op-
crate.
The power representatives, IL is un-
derstood, arrived here week ago
and will remain week longer, dur
ing which time they will be in con-
ference with the executive personnel
in establishing policies and regula-
tions.
Samuel T. AnselI, who was for many
years the law officer and adviser OF
the War Department in matters touch
ing navigable waters. said today he
knew nothing of the meeting. but in
response to a question, added:
The Federal waterpower act is an
act that leaves large room for cons
struction and supplemental regula-
ton. Its failure or success in tho
development of power depends largely
on how the act is to be applied, or,
speaking more specifically, upon tho
policies and efforts of administration
adopted by the executive personnel.
Speaking from personal acquaint-
ance with Colonel Kelly, a West Point
classmate of mine, and of Colonel
Call, who was for many years my
assistant in the War Department
should expect an administration that
will actually develop waterpower and
at the same time protect public in
terests."

BARBARY APES HERE

Excitement prevails in the Zoo
monkey house today.
Yesterday morning each monkey
in the building put on his best face,
cleaned his fur and sat on his tail
with expectation writ large on his
countenance.
Mother apes threatened the monk
let's with a thrashing where their
tails Joined their bodies IL they
weren't good. Why?
Because a very aristocratic fam
lily Joined the Zoo yesterday.
They are Mr.. and Mrs. Barbary
Ape. Their claims to distinction are
based on two points. First, they
have no tails ana never did have
any. Second, they are members Of
the only tribe of apes that live wild
in Europe.
When they appeared in the Zoo
yesterday all the monkeys endeav-
ored to hide their tails by squat
ting on them, in order to be in the
social swim.
The, new family had a quite un-
pleasant trip over from their home
in Gibraltar, but they chirked up
quickly in their new abode and are
today busy making friends.
The Barbary ape is a macaque.
and is the only species of ape living
at the present time north of the
Mediterranean. They very closely
resemble the baboon, except that
they have no more tail than the
side Of a house. The Barbary ape in
Gibraltar is fast becoming extinct,
though a few dozen survivors are
now being protected by law.

sionary and were developed in the
department
The little old tree in the depart

back of 1878. though just how far is
not known.
The tree was attacked by dry rot
and was saved by the skill of Z. NJ.

Orange trees often live to be 100

The Washington times., 1920-08-21

In advising people that there are
many advantages in owning their
homes, Arthur w. Warner, real es-
tate agent OF the Interborough Rapid
Transit Company, of New York. points
out some of the details in connection
witt. the purchase of apartment build
ings on the cooperative basis.
The purchase of apartments in
comparatively owned buildings is be-
coming so common that it is desirable
the essentials in buying them should
be better understood" he says.
ITO begin with, 1t is not possible
to buy, strictly speaking, an apart
ment within building. What is
bought Is a portion of the shares of
a corporation which owns the whole
building, the corporation giving to
each share purchaser a written lease
of an apartment.
There are two general plans OF
cooperative ownership, namely. u)
where a portion of the apartments
are sold and the rest are rented, and
(2) where every apartment is sold.
Both plans have their advantages.
Where only a part of the apartm, nts
are sold IT is intended that the re-
naming apartments. and usually the
stores as well, will yield a profit of
enough to pay all the expenses Of
the property and give fre rent, more
or less, to the tenant owners. Under
this plan the investment is necessar-
lily substantial, as the price of the
property over and above the mort
gage, IL any, must be contributed by
the few tenant buyers. usually about
one third or les of the total number
Of tenants Some speculation is in
volved as to what the rented apart
ments will bring in the future and
the chance OF vacancies.
Under the plan of selling all the
apartments in a building the two big
items Of loss in apartment house op-
eration-i. e., vacancies and wasteful
completely elimi-
mated. These two items amount in
ordinary times to az high as % per
cent or more of the total rent each
year. and this sum is saved. When
the apartments are all sold the cost
on the property per tenant is, OF
substantially less than when
only a third are sold. 1t Ia also poss-
ible for one tenant to purchase sever
al apartments and sublet them at a
profit which will pay the rent OF his
own apartment, In that way accom-
pl1Sn1nR the Saint Itbull az u COhN'"
plated by the former plan.
In purchasing cooperative apart
ments, however, nothing compares
In importance, so far as the ordinary
purchaser Is concerned, with the repu-
tation, reliability and responsibility
of the agents or other persons pro-
noting the sale. upon whose state
ments, facts and figures the tenants
decision to purchase must largely be
based, The prospective purchaser
having satisfied himself on this score
the next query should be: 'Jn how
many years will the saving in rent
between the cooperative rent and the
rent the tenant would have been ordi-
narily willing to pay for the apart
ment meet the cooperative invest
ment7" How long this should take
depends upon such a variety OF ele-
ments, different in each case, that no
general rule can be laid down for II
xAers might even be cases .Fhcre
