James R. Ryan Establishes
New Store in California

Friday evening, James r. Ryan re-
turned from Oroville, Calf, where
he has been for the past few weeks,
where he will establish another
branch store of the string of Golden
Rule stores, of which there are three
at this time, one at Salida, Colo,
and at Gooding and Blackfoot, Idaho.
Mr.. Ryan is very enthusiastic over
the location Of the new store and In
speaking of Oroville said that it is a
town OF about 5000 population, hav-
ing recently installed an Elks' lodge
and is the county seat of Butte coun-
ty. 1t is situated in very beautiful
section of the country in the famous
Feather River valley on the main line
of the Western Pacific railway be-
tween Sacramento and Salt Lake. The
main industry is fruit raising and the
first California oranges to ripen each
year are grown in that locality. 1t
has one of the largest olive industries
in the world as actually grown and
can ship out more olives than any
other community. Two big lumber
mills are operating daily and the pay
roll alone Of the entire city is esti-
mated at about $4,000, 100000 Mr.. Ryan
said that he heard no mention of
spuds or sugar beets however while
in Oroville, but that ne never had
been in a city of it's size and seen
more automobiles. at one time he
counted PIT automobiles parked in
and near the business section, which
did not count those in motion. Other
facts which showed the prosperity of
this little city were that there was no
talk of hard times any where, two
new irrigation projects are being op-
ened, and that great deal of land
on the edge Of town is being plated
into orchard tracts, and as it is not
a farming community the stores close
at six o'clock on Saturday evenings,
drug stores, however, remain open un-
til eight o'clock. Mr.. Harold Sedgwick
who has been connected with the
Blackfoot store for several years, will
be the manager of the new store at
Oroville. Mr.. Ryan, in view Of all the
of that place, says that he
considers it to be a very lively and
community, and is very
over the prospects and
feels very fortunate that he is able to
secure so splendid an opening for the
Of the new branch store

SENATOR COPELAND
BLAMES RAILROADS
Says Coal Shortage Due to
Failure Heads to Make
Peace With Shopmen.

"The failure OF the railroads TO
men is responsible for the shortage
of coal and other inconveniences this
winter" declared Senator Royal 5.
Copeland Of New York at meeting
OF the Women's Trade Union League
of the District in Pythian Temple
Tuesday night. Investigation showed
that there was plenty of coal above
ground and loaded in railroad cars
but the locomotives. due to the lack
of men in the repair shops. were in
such poor condition that they were
unable to haul them. Senator Cope
land said. The railroads faifed to
make peace with them because they
would not deal with them collectively.
1t is only by collective bargaining
that the laboring man has any chance
in the world 10 obtain justice"
Praising laws that regulate con-
ditions for woman workers. he de-
ciartd the whole future well-being
of the country depends on the mental
and physical condition of the women.
and if they are 50 situated that they
have to work they should be SO pro-
tected as to insure their weil-being.

planting in the light or the dark
OF the moon" has been from time i'm
memorial a deep p-seated conviction of
harvest efficiency among large class
of agriculturists of the country.
Especially has it been a genuine
superstition with the more unedu-
Gated class of the rural population of
our country. perhaps of other coun-
tries.
The idea that certain seeds should
be placed in the soil at the time OF
an increasing moon and that tubers
must be planted ION the dark of the
superstitious conception among the
tillers Of the soil. but science has now
come TO the rescue.
The effect of moon light on the
termination Of seeds is now being IN
yestigated by Prof. l.. {. Bayly
and Mclean Thompson, chemists OF
the chemical laboratories of the mi
versity Of Liverpool. and the results
just announced indicate greatly in
creased velocity of germinatlon. IN
order TO determine whether THIS
might be due to the effect OF moon ,
light on the anonymous coihpouhu
that acts as ferment converting
starch found in terminating seeds. OF
which scientists know very little. d
small quantity of mustard seed was
crushed and mixed with water ana
exposed to moonlight. Estimation
with Fehling's solution of sugar pro
duced showed that there was an
Increased yield of about 10 per
cent caused by the moonlight.
The investigation of this phenome.
ma and possible explanation OF
these results. it is said, is TO be
found in the fact that at certain
periods moonlight is plane -polarized.
and in order to test this suggestion
the experiments with crushed mus
tard seed were repeated with day
light after polarization. either by re-
flection or by a prism. Control eN-
periments were also carried out both
in darkness and in ordinary daylight.
The temperature was the same for
all three experiments in each case
and lay between ten and eighteen de-
grees. y remarkable increase in the
amount was always noted when po-
larized light was used. with fresh

the amorphous compound Of fermen-

The investigation of this phenome-
nom is now being carried on at the
Liverpool laboratory and the results
already obtained are worthy of record
since they give strong support OF

mixture Is placed on three slides un-
der microscopes, one being exposed
to moonlight, one to ordinary light,
the third being kept in darkness
