commercial vice and illicit liquor
trafficing rampant under the
Bremner administration, that
charges of protecting vice and
bootlegging were openly laid to
Chief of Police Carlson, Brem-

championed Bremner's adminis-

lice chief, although proclaiming
itself to be concerned only with
strict law enforcement in its po-
litical activity.
The adoption Of the city man
ager proposal by the voters on
May 10 was a vital blow to the
Ku Kluxers. Not only did it indi-
cate the klan's inability to deliv-
er majority vote on clear cut
yes and no issue, but it also prov
ed their leadership incapable of
holding the whole of their sup
posed voting strength in line and
delivering it promisciously.

CHERR|ANS AID
PRUNE FESTIVAL

Vancouver, Wash, Oct. IA
Yesterday was Friday, the 18th,
but Old Col smiled his approval
and the weather man refused to
order rain for the annual prune
harvest festival children's parade.
TIL result was the finest, most i'm
posing and artistic parade of its
kind ever held in Vancouver, with
all sections of Clarke county TAX
ing part.
The parade started from Eley-
enth and Washington streets,
headed down Washington to Fifth,
to Main, to Tenth, to Vancouver
barracks, where a full regimental
review was given at 4 o'clock,
especially for the entertainment
of visiting throngs, through the
courtesy of General Blatchford.
Leading the parade was Queen
Lidwin's car, and with her were
her princesses -- Beryl, Bernice
and Henrietta. The comely queen
in her regal robes bowed gracious
ly as the crowds applauded
throughout the line of march.
The Vancouver Prunarians, in
uniform, marched Immediately
after the car. Next came the Roy
al Rosarians' band Of Portland and
the Rosarians, in their spotless
white uniforms. The Newberg
Berrians were in line with their
queen and band, and striking ma
room or berry-colored uniforms.

as unfit to share in "delectable

is rather pointedly demonstrated
by the manner in which they
coaxed $40 donations out of the
foreign born at Astoria.
Made "Propagandists"
Whenever a live prospect was
found to be ineligible to active
membership in the khan by reas-
on of foreign birth, the kleagles
sought to sign him up as Prop
agandist." ;" If they were successful,
in collecting the required $40 fee
from him he was given a card
proclaiming to the world that he
was authorized by the imperial
wizard to spread the gospel OF
klanishness, but ineligible to

of bunk.
This method of enlisting for
eign born sympathy and support
for the khan and its program was
short lived, however, for the
"Propagandists," barred from
participation n-the mystic attrac-
tions supposed to be going on in
the Klavern, commenced to won

Importance OF lining UP solidly

foresaw the financial possibilities
incident to the success of their
plan for domination of all public

means of organizing this vitaliy
important foreign vote, there be-

Mayor James Bremmer, who
had been a strong coworker with
the klansmen, although barred
from membership by his Canadian
birth, was one of the active lead
ers in organizing the orange
lodge and framing it's policies to
coordinate with the Ku Klux
program. That this aid was enlist

klan's active campaign against
the movement to establish man

the city, a proposal for which the
abuses of the old system during
Bremners regime were largely re-

Produce Review

Rain through most of the produc-
ing sections has improved pasturage,
and gives promise Of some increase
in the deliveries Of cream. Prices
show little change from last week.
Dairy authorities suggest that at this
time of the year. when the grass is
short. it is a good plan to give the
COWS a little extra feed, both morning
and evening, in order to keep up the
milk flow.
The supply of fresh eggs is small
er. and good prices are being paid.
There is an over supply Of held stock
and prices are not quite as firm as
last week There is a large surplus
of eggs in cold storage.
Poultry receipts have been about
normal for the season. The approach
ing Jewish holidays have increased
the demand, with some advance noted
for live poultry and more satisfac-
tory situation for dressed stock. Any
large increase in the movement
would probably be followed by some
reaction in prices.

WHEAT YIELDS ARE BOOSTED
WITH CARE ON FOUR POINTS

Despite the fact that average wheat
yields in Kentucky during the recent
years have ben low, few progressive
farmers have demonstrated that
yields as high as 30 or 35 bushels an
acre can be obtained. Those who
have obtained these profitable yields
usually are farmers who give atten-
ton to about four main factors, such
as seed bed preparation. fertilization,
the use OF good seed and proper plant
ing dates, soils and crops specialists
at the College of Agriculture say.
"One of the first things to which
the successful farmer gives attention
in making plans for his wheat crop
is the preparation of the seed bed
Wheat demands a soil that is firm
and fine. A loose soil means almost
certain failure while clods contribute
toward reducing yields. In cases
where it is necessary to pillow land
for wheat, this operation should be
performed in ample time to allow for
thorough preparation Of the seed bed.
"The fertilizer most commonly
used for wheat in Kentucky is acid
phosphate. this material being ap-
piled with limestone and sometimes
with a light application of stable ma
fsar
pounds or more of acid phosphate an
acre. On poor soils about 300 pounds
of acid phosphate with light apDli-
cation of manure give good results.
When clover is seeded in the wheat,
better results are obtained by using
limestone with the acid phosphate
and manure.
Experience has shown that farm.
ers who get the highest yields in the
communities also give considerable
attention to their seed wheat, using
not only clean, plump seed. but also
variety that is adapted to their
soils. In view of the fact that there
is wided Inference in the way differ
ent varieties yield under different
conditions, it is important to select
suitable variety Many farmers pre-
fer bearded wheat on thin, wet soils.
Probable injury from the Hessian
fly makes II important that the wheat
is seeded after the recommended
dates for various sections of the
state Wheat sown otter October 3
in Eastren Kentucky, October to 10
in Central Kentucky and October 10
to IA in Western Kentucky is ont apt

HONEY PEACHES CAN

Although generally regarded as
strictly southern varieties, several
kinds of honey peaches" have been
grown quite successfully on the
grounds of an experiment station.
The honey peaches were first intro
duced as seedlings in Georgia and
Florida where they are still grown
quite extensively. Northern grown
fruit probably does not equal in size
that grown in the south. but the quail
ity and flavor of the New York pro-
duct are exceptionally fine, declare
station experts.
The honey peaches are described
as having a delightfully."- sweet or
"honeyed" flavor. as being quite Juicy
and as having excellent quality.
While not adapted to commercial
paintings. they are believed to be
well suited for small paintings, where
the winter temperatures are not too
low.
