Wenatchee Plans Annual

recently by the committee in charge
of the sixth annual Apple Blossom

The committee decided that the

gala or carnival night of the festival,
which they want to be an event long
to be remembered throughout the
Northwest. So 1t was suggested that
Einstein or some other authority upon
the subject be employed to negotiate
for "timeless night" on the evening
of May g.
Accordingly it has been arranged
for every clock in Wenatchee to stop
at o'clock on that night, 30 that Joy
may reign unfettered by the usual
limitations Of time. The clocks will
resume operations at o'clock the
following morning.
Invitations have been sent out to
prominent scientists all over the
country to come to the apple Capt

the strange phenomena to be seen
there when jewellers may begin with
the hands Of the clock pointing to s
p. m. and enjoy 1,441 minutes of I'M
restrained joy before the long hand
gets around to one minute after 8

DISTRIBUTION COST OF ELECTRICITY HIGH

With the vast inter-connections Of
power lines and the gradual building
up of so-called super power systems
has come visiol to the public and
press Of electric poz,r to be had at
little or no cost.
Warnings of the fallacy of this idea
have been sounded by scores of the
country's leaGing electric engineers.
The keynote of mest Of these warn
ings has been that super power meant,
not low prices, but adequacy and de-
pendability of service.
Cost of delivery in the distribution
of electricity is pointed out as one Of
the big fixed costs.

Prevent Running Ears

Aside from the real annoyance con.
nected with running ear, such as the
discomforting moisture, the impaired
hearing, and the consciousness Of the
disagreeable odor, there is real dan
ger that should not be overlooked nor
neglected. AS in most other ailments.
the ounce Of prevention should be
learned and applied.
Infections that attack the nose and
throat frequently involve the ear, and
to prevent ear trouble when you have
fresh cold in the nose or throat, a
few drops of oil should be dropped in
the nose three or four times daily,
with an eye-dropper. An oil that can
be obtained at any drug store, known
as albolene, is good.
1t is good practice to put a drop
or two of this in the baby's nose at
least once a day, preferably at bed
time. 1t is also important not to
blow" the nose while the nose and
and throat are inflamed. Gargles
and nasal washes are dangerous as
they are apt to carry the infection to
the ear.
Frequently it is found necessary to
remove the tonsils and adenoids to
effect cure in child.
Chronic discharging ears frequent
ly are due to neglect for which there
is no good excuse. A person who has
a chronic ear, which suddenly COM
mences to discharge more, should re-
gard this as serious warning and
consult physician, as 1t probably
means that the infection or disease
is making serious progress, not only
endangering the hearing, but perhaps
life ITSELF The infection, IL unchecked,
destroys large portion Of the bone,
LAYING only thin shell to protect the
brain and the large vessel which runs
the ear and the mastoid.
An impressive percentage Of our
youths drafted for the war were re-
jected because of chronic ear condi-
lions. Taken early, these conditions
sould have been helped and deafness
1t is important to remem-
Der that in the acute infections pain
may be entirely absent. But that Is
no reason for neglecting the other
warnings that Nature has wisely pro-
vided.

Attempt to Mandamus

Recommends Prospecting
In Skagit Coal Fields

o. P. jenkins of the geology de,
partnrent at the State College of
Washington Is Of the opinion that the
coal In the Cumberland Creek district
of Skagit County, Washington, de-
serves prospecting in view Of develop
ing a mine. Professor Jenkins made
careful survey Of western Skagit
County, as continuation of work
previously done in Whatcom County.
Although no coal mines were actu-
ally producing any coal on CONNER
cial scale in that county when he was
there, he found several places where
coal may be produced. The old Coke.
dale mine was formerly quite an i'm
portant contributor to the coke indus.
try of the state.
"The coking quality of the Goals in
Skagit County, especially in the Coke
dale and Cumberland Creek areas, Is
of considerable significance, for Goals
of that quality are limited in extent
In Washington" says Prof. Jenkins.
THE thickest seams of coal were
found in the Cokedale mine and in the
Cumberland Creek prospects. Further
development at Cokedale could now
only be done with much deeper
mining, unless examination through
diamond drilling would disclose a
more favorable way Of entering the
seam from the surface.
"The Cumberland Creek area de-
serves investigation with the drill
and with other methods of prospect
ing. 1t would not be worth while,
however, in either case to go ahead
without careful consideration of geo.
logic conditions.
"The Cokedale and Cumberland
areas at present appear to be the most
deserving Of development Of any In
the county. The Blumont district
does not at present indicate many
good features for finding coal of con.
siderable extent, although some
pockets may be found II further pros.
pecting Is carried on. The area about
McMurray has not been sufficiently
tested to disclose any coal seams Of
Importance. The outcrops show only
thin seams. Possibly drilling might
cut seams of consequence.
III any coal mines should be de-
veloped in the county, the transpor-
tation facilities would be found to
be unusually good, for railroads enter
nearly every district wehere coal
measures lie."

State May Have Gold
On Some of Its Land

retains title to any minerals that may

Power Production Increases

The average production OF electri-
city by public utility power plants OF
the country, started off in 1925 in
January, at the rate of 180,300,000
kilowatthours per day, the highest
rate yet reached in the production Of
electricity. The January rate exceed
ed the December rate by about III
per cent and exceeded the January,
1924, rate by nearly per cent. Based
on the increase In output during pre-.
yious years, the average daily rate of
production Of electricity in January,
1926, will probably be over 200000,000
kilowatt-hours per day. The output
by the use OF water power In Janu-
