Fruit Crops Will Be
Smaller Than 1924

Only fair crops of apples, peaches
and pears are now expected in the
United States this year, department
of agriculture crop officials de-
clared this week. Frosts in late
May reduced prospects in many
scattered sections, particularly in
some of the central states, Virginia,
Michigan and portions of New
York.
The condition of apples on June
l was nearly 10 per cent below
the usual average on that date.
The northwestern states expect
more apples than were picked last
year, but for the country as a
whole the crop seems likely to be
lighter, although much depends on
the rainfall during the next few
months.
Peach production shows large
increase in California, where most
of the crop is canned or dried, but
in practically all other important
states the crop is expected to be
less than 100000 bushels, COM
pared with S,333,000 bushels last
year.
The pear crop also is reported
only fair this year, California alone
among the important producing
states expecting materially larger
crop than in the preceding season.

PLAN FOR DEFENSE
DAY OBSERVANCE
ON JULY FOURTH

With central and local commit
tees for Arizona announced, plans
for the observance of the second
national defense test on July 4 are
actively under way.
Capt. J. L. b. Alexander, of
Phoenix, Spanish war veteran and
state chairman for the first nation
al defense test successfully held
last year, has again been named to
head the central committee for Ari-
Zona, having charge of the plans
for the defense test. Other mem
bers of the central committee are
E. S. Stallcup, state commander of
the American Legion, and Major
Charles H. Rutherford.
The military section of the state
committee is composed of Charles
w. Harris, adjutant general of
Arizona; Capt. E. J. Boyer, instruc-
tor of the Arizona National Guard,
and Capt. George F. Mcdonald, eX-
ecutive officer of the organized
reserves.
The mayor of each city and town
IN Arizona mas Deen designated Dy
Governor Hunt to be chairman of
the local committee in his commu-
nifty, and will appoint his own
committee for carrying out the To-
cal plans for the defense test
program, which, in addition to ac-
Quafnting the American people with
their national defense policies and
obligations and demonstrating the
plans for the organization of the
army in the event of a national
emergency, will appropriately add
emphasis to the celebration of the
signing of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, when congress first
pledged the man power and re-
sources of the country for national
defense.

AUTOMOBILE CLUB
OF ARIZONA JOINS
u. S. ASSOCIATION

The Automobile Club of Arizona
has taken the first step toward
complete affiliation with the Ma
tional Motorist association, a union
of 100000 automobile owners To-
Gated in all parts of the United
States. The object of the associa-
tion of automobile clubs is mutual
benefit, protection and assistance
to touring members when out Of
their own states.
Charles Kimberlin, manager of
the Arizona club, has received a
contract from the Automobile Club
of Chicago, one of the largest
organizations of it's kind in the
United States. More than forty
automobile clubs are now members
of this nationwide organization.
The reciprocal contracts between
the various automobile clubs COM
posing the association insure the
touring member the same treat
ment when in the jurisdiction of
any contracting club as local
members are entitled to. This
means better garage service,
courteous treatment at hotels,
cafes, ETC., that belong to the as
sociation, by showing membership
card.
The advertising value to Arizona
will be great, as Arizona maps and
descriptive matter will be supplied
each club of the organization for
distribution. Manager Kimberlin
believes that the theft department
of this great organization will do
much to reduce the stolen car prob
lem, as large and well financed
force of detectives will be main
tanned to trace stolen cars and see
that thieves are properly punished.
The organization also will work for
national control of automobile Ii
censes in an effort to have the
same charges and regulations in
force in each of the forty-eight
states and the District of Columbia.
The national organization will also
work for a uniform system of high
way marking.

Winter Fruits
4@#$%#$
By NELLIE MAXWELL

THE orange is especially priced
l. during the winter months, when
it is at its best and most plentiful
and good favored.
The winter diet, being rich and
heavy, needs such fruit to keep the
body in good condition. All citrus
fruits contain fruit salts and acids
which are most beneficial 10 health.
A pint of orange juice contains
almost the same number of food
units as three-Quarters of pint of
milk. Orange juice is quickly as
simulated and because of it's action
on the bowels, is one of the finest
digestive regulators.
It's beautiful color makes the
orange particularly enjoyed in win
ter, when color in foods Is most
appreciated.
AS a garnish the orange has wide
possibilities. Baskets, cups, flowers,
confections, may be prepared, the
rind preserved and served as a con-
fectiOn, or as receptacles for salads
or jellies.
A sherbet is easily prepared us-
ing citrus fruit, orange or lemon
juice, sugar sirup and water. or IL
richer sherbet is desired, thin
cream or rich milk in place of the
water. Serve in orange cups with
roast meats or fowl. Candies of
various kinds favored with these
fruit juices are both wholesome and
delicious. Plain fondant, favored
with lemon or orange juice and
made into patties like the winter
green or peppermints, is well liked.
Turkish delight prepared with
gelatin, sugar sirup and fruit juices,
cooled in a fiat dish and cut into
oblongs, then rolled in powdered
sugar is another very popular con-
fectiOn.
To prepare the sirup for glazed
fruits take two cupfuls of sugar,
one cupful of boiling water, one
third of a teaspoonful of cream OF
tartar. Boil until the sirup begins
to, color light brown, or to 80 de-
grees F., then dip each piece quick
ly, keeping the sirup over hot water.

Then it struck me that I might
learn something of the inmates of the
house before meeting them in the
flesh by examining the contents OF the
files lying on the desk. 1t will be seen
that even at this early stage the in
stinct of the detective had already
blunted the finer scruples.
l picked up file and went rapidly
through the contents. but 1T did not
seem to contain anything of great in
terest. 1 took another, but that, too,
only appeared to contain the records
of various transactions with different
firms, most of them foreign, and re-
lated to the purchase of all kinds of
goods, among which I noticed several
large orders for Belfast linen and
six separate consignments of unfin-
ished cotton goods from Manchester.
There were also large orders to Dun
lop and Goodrich, chiefly for tires.
and for consignments of rubber from
the Dutch East indies. The third file
at which I looked seemed to be SINH
lar to the other two, but, glancing
down the transactions chronicled,
came upon the words "Svenska Kulla-
gar Fabriken."
/ SKINNED the relevant correspond
ence rapidly. and found several letters
concerning the purchase Of a large
quantity of Swedish ball bearings. was
particularly struck by letter request
ing the Swedish firm to send a repre-
sentative to Geneva to conclude the final

arran gements. and I thought of my
Swedish friend in the train.
The letters, being only carbon cop
les of the original, were simply fni-
tailed, so that I could not discover
the name of the person who had made
the purchase. This discovery set me
wondering whether I could find any
trace OF the Swiss aluminium sauce-
pans, and / searched through the rest
of the file and through several others
until. finally, I came across a letter
directed to Neuhausen, where, 1 re-
membered, the headquarters of the
Swiss hardware Arm was situated.
I was about to examine it, when /
heard a movement outside the door in
the hall, and, hastily abandoning the
files, I moved across the room till
was opposite a large mirror, which
was let into the wall above the man
tel shelf and surrounded by delicate
eighteenth-century molding. There
made a pretense of adjusting my tie.
and, as / was engaged upon this
operation, I received the shock of my
life.
While I was gazing into the mirror,
replacing the gold pin which held my

collar in place, my own face appear
ed in duplicate suddenly over my
right shoulder.
l stared at it in astonishment. There
1t was, exact in every detail.
/ thought at first that 1t must be
some trick of reflection, and
grimaced into the mirror, to see
whether the other face would regis
ter the contortion. But the face over
my right shoulder remained solemn
and unmoved, while ! saw my own
reflection by the side of 1t grimacing
back at me with an expression of
vacuous astonishment.
l whipped round, and, standing be-
hind me, / saw a man of my own
height, wearing a light brown over
coat. The moment he caught sight
of me his face betrayed a similar as
