BERRY HARVEST OFF
WITH SUDDEN RUSH

The strawberry harvest opened with
bang Tuesday, and two carloads, the
first of the season, were shipped that
night, week earlier than had been
anticipated a week ago. The excep-
tionally warm weather Of last~week,
however, matured the fruit faster than
growers or shippers had expected.
Most growers were not planning to
start the harvest until the beginning
of next week, and as a result there
was shortage of harvest help. Mrs.
j. W, ingalls,. in charge of the free
employment bureau operated by the
Apple Growers Association. sent an
appeal to Portland and neighboring
points, seeking 500 pickers and pack
ere.

Hieh Cost Of Careless Checks

Forgers and check manipulators ex-
act toll of about $35. 900, 600 a year in
the United States, according to Burgess
Smith, former Inspector in Bureau Of
Engraving. With checks and drafts
approximating $4O0. 00O. 900. 600 passing
through clearing houses. he says in
American industries, careless use Of
credit instruments makes it worth
while for forgers to organize gangs Of
mail thieves. presenters, lawyers, etc.
Losses are increasing 81. 600. 600 yearly
compared with total annual loss Of
81, 900, 900 thirty years ago.
Protective measures recommended
include use of special ink and paper,
keeping blank checks under lock and
key and obtaining insurance such as
makers of safety devices offer at nom
inal cost.

Charleston. W. Va. June 14.-A
new angle which may prolong indcf-
ritely the trial Of. the Rev. J. +. Will

Gore. Of Logan County. developed late
yesterday.
The Court ruled evidence may bp in.
troduced from tn" +6rst gathering o:
armed miners at Marmet last summer
until Federal troops were sent into the
southern coal fields and the fighting
stopped.
The reason for the ruling. the Court
held. was that tho motive for the kill
ing must be proved and whether malice
was behind it. The Court contended
this conclusion could bc reached only
BY the jury in ascertaining facts con.
nected with the armed march.
The point was brosght up by the
Cross -ex animation Of Mrs. Isabella
Riggs, a boarding house keeper in
Blair. -
While the men were standing about.
Mrs. Riggs said, one OF them lifted q
gun and told the crowd:
Here's the gun that shot Gore. The
preacher popped it to him.
Two witnesses of the shooting
also testified. They were Jack Brink
man and Velasco Carpenter. The lat
tee was one of the eight originally in.
dicted in connection with the killing,
but who turned States witnesses during
the Blizzard trial.
p The prosecution said 1t had thirty
more witnesses to examine and as evil

SHREVEPORT TERRITORY
SHOWS PRODUCTION LOSS

Shreveport, La-Declines all along
the line in number of producers, initial
producintion and daily average produc-
ton were recorded in the Shreveport
territory, including Ell Dorado, Ark,
during the past week. The daily aver
age production, with decreases in
Haynesville and Homer and small in
creases in all the other districts,
amounted to 1925 barrels, de-
crease of 3,414 barrels for the week
The weeks field record showed Al COM
pletions, including two gassers, nine
failures and SO producers with COM
bined initial yield of S,718 barrels, COM
pared with the preceding weeks rec
ord of 81 competitions, including eight
failures and 43 producing wells with
combined initial production of 1909
barrels. There was decline of II in
number of completions, decline of
cline of 1881 barrels in initial pro-
duction.
The principal cause mentioned for
the falling off in field results is the
weather, which was unusually unfavor-
able during the last week. Twice there
were severe windstorms with heavy
downpour of rain, resulting in scores
of derricks being felled and other dam
age entailed and also causing some of
the drilling activities to be temporarily
suspended. The Haynesville field suf-
fered especially heavy losses in the
blowing down of derricks.

STRENGTH IS SHOWN
IN COTTON MARKET
Buving on Condition Report
Tends to Send Up Active
Months.

New Orleans. La.-Although some
thing of a reactionary tendency was
shown by the cotton market in the ear
ly sessions of the week just ended,
the later sessions brought pressure to
buy and strong advances were under
way for some time. Much of the buy
ing was done on bullish anticipatlons
regarding the first condition report OF
the season from the government.
Highest prices came on the closing
session, when July touched 2O.S9c and
the list of active months was 55 to SO
points higher than the close Of the pre-
ceding week. Last prices were at net
gains Of II to SO points, with July at
20.76c.
July was at all times the strongest
month. According to the weekly state
ment the visible supply of American
cotton is now down to 2.943,184 bales,
against 4,280,495 year ago. Stocks
at the thirty counted interior towns
have been reduced to 634,717 bales,
against 1,271 ,196 year ago, and stocks
at all ports amount to only S96,277
bales, against 1,582,196 year ago.
While weather conditions over the
belt were regarded as showing some
improvement, they still were looked
upon as being far from satisfactory
and crop reports were constant sup
port to the market. Private bureau
estimates of condition that attracted
most attention ranged from IS to 67
per cen of normal, although there were
reports of 6S and So per cent, and one
as high as 718 per cent, conditions
point to a crop of 10,243,000 bales, ac-
eording to the government formula.

Auxiliary. 1t is the duty of local units
Of the Auxiliary in towns where ex-
service men are in hospitals to keep the
disabled men supplied with little COM
forts and delicacies not provided by
the government. The women write
letters to the patients, send them
newspapers, books, magazines, fruit,
bathrobes, bed slippers, candy, cigar
cites and special articles that they
desire. Under Mrs. Cudworth's super
vision. as president Of the national
welfare committee of the Auxiliary,
this work is being done in the middle
western states over which she has
supervision. Mrs. Cudworth personal
ly visits disabled service men in the
hospitals of her territory. hears their
complaints and takes them up with
the proper government officials.

'In order that Mother Sheep would

"Then she looked after him and

"Now there are black-faced sheep"
Daddy continued, "Known as Shrop-
