EASTER IN OUR CHURCHES.

Easter Sunday is the great Ameri-
can go-to-church day. Not so by Off
clal proclamation or designation, but
for reasons far more compelling.
Easter is the time when the church
arranges for its most beautiful music,
when upon the altar there are the
most brilliantly lighted candles and
sweetest flowers. But best of all, 1t is
Il day when earnestness of worship is
visibly evident. All of our churches
have special programs for next Sun
day, so the COLORADO STATESMAN
urges that each of its readers select
the church of his or her choice and
Join in this beautiful worship.

DEARY DISTRICT TO FRONT
IN STRAWBERRY PRODUCTION

Judging from the number of labels
ordered from this office by straw
berry growers this week, the straw
berry crop of the Upper Potlatcn
country will be quite large. The
Texas Ridge growers were the lar
gest buyers of labels, this section
having established reputation as a
strawberry center. Big Bear Ridge
will this year come into notice as a
strawberry section also.
The strawberries from here go on
the market after all the Lewiston and
Charleston product has been disposed
of, and prices usually start better
than can be had for irrigated berries
except for the first offerings from
the irrigated fields. Our berries are
considered of better quality than
those of the lower regions, in that
they are firmer and therefore better
shippers. and have a finer flavor

r. T. JONES SAYS RAINS
ARE NOT DOING DAMAGE

B. ]. Jones and ]. j. Lynch, well
known residents of Palouse precinct
in the northern part of Latah county
were in the city Saturday on busln-
ess. Mr.. Jones, who is one of the
most extensive farmers in that part
of the county, when asked if the con-
tinuous rains are doing any damage,
said:
eve have been short on June rains
for a number of years and are getting
lust what we wanted and what we
have been needing. So far there is
no damage and I do not predict that
there will be any. OF course, there IS
some alfalfa ready to cut, but it won't
hurt it to wait few days. There
should be a good second crop OF al
falfa, with the large amount of mois-
ture. The wheat, both spring and fall
sown, is looking fine, and should
make the best crop the Palouse coun-
try has had for years. This is like
real old-time Palouse season.

with complete success.
Light showers have prevailed here
this week until Friday afternoon when
a heavy downpour of rain came. This
morning the sun is shining, and It
is hoped that no more rain will fall
here until the farmers can cut and
take care of their alfalfa and clover

BANKS COME To
RESCUE WALL street

New York-Wall street, shaken to
the depths by the string Of failures
and the resultant loss of public con-
fidence which followed disclosures of
widespread bucketing" of custo-
mers' orders, breathed its first long
breath in a week today when power
full banking interests stepped into the
breach to stabilize the market.
While the banking support was con-
fined to brokerage houses holding
membership in the New York stock
exchange, the strength infused into
that market carried prices up on both
the consolidated and the curb ex-
changes and marked spirit of opti-
mism prevailed. The rushing to cover
by shorts aided in the strengthening
process.
A prominent financier, associated
with one of the largest banks in the
street, told reporters he believed 1t
was safe to say the unsettlement in
the brokerage situation is at an end
as far as New York stock exchange
houses are concerned"
