Dicky's Attitude Toward Illness
 Arouscs NIadge's Ire,


 Az l reached Edith Fairfax's side and held out my arms for my small sou who was whimpering my name, she looked up at me with eyes which held no hint of the emotion which guessed was swaying her.
 You would better wait until l stand up with him." she said quietly. Tn that way you'll disturb him least"
 Before she could rise, I stopped her with poremptory gesture. AS an outgoing tidal wave washes out all flotsam and jetsam from the shore so did my anxiety for my sick child hanish from me every other feeling beside consideration for his welfare. IL was as If were a ma chine temporarily ungeared which had clicked into place. And to me Dicky and Edith were but two ad l.. dltional machines 10 be used for my lttle lads aid in whatever way seemed best.
 "Dicky," I called mperatlvcly. "Lift Edith up so that she won't have 10 jolt Junior when she gives him 10 me. Careful now"
 He advanced 10 Edith and bent over her, slipping one arm around her, and placing his other hand beneath her elbow. l watched his movement carefully. with but one thought. would he be skillful enough 10 accomplish the thing I wished ? And when without the suspicion of an uneven movement, my little lad was put into my arms, 1t was the tho same mechanical watchfullpess that I told Dicky 10 move our larg- est armchair nearer the radiator our miserable hotel substitute for an open fire--and lowe me into 1t. When he had done so, and Junior, with nesting. borrowing move- ment of his head into my shoulder, as precious to me as if was familiar. had gone to sleep again, Edith bent toward me.
 ''Tf you're sure there's nothing more I can do MaGge." she said, "fll run along"

If the same age, the variation would
be much greater. Growers indicated
that the Spitzenberger is the worm
lest variety grown in the Wenatchee
district and that the Winesap is the
least wormy. T
Some. of the principle causes OF
worm control are shown by the fol-
lowing factors in 81 of the wormlest
orchards in the valley. They are all
from II to 25 years old; 10 show
close planting; all contain from one
to five varieties that are very sus-
ceptible to worms; only five use 3OO
pounds pressure and several only 2Oo
pounds: only three show that over
10 gallons of spray per tree were
used at each spraying.
Since some of the causes OF codlmg
moth trouble are factors which can
be controlled by the grower, proper
equipment and thorough work can
do much to eliminate the heavy loss
being suffered from worms II, some

Benton county orchardists can pro-
fit by the experience of growers in
the Wenatchee valley in controlling
cooling moth. A survey in which
about 900 growers returned ques-
tionnairres shows that four factors
seem to be outstanding in control
spacing, varieties, pressure and the
amount of spray per tree at each
spraying. -.
This survey was made by County
Agent A. R. Chase of Chelan county,
with the results coming from the
growers themselves. Replies came
from both successful and unsuccess-
full orchardists in control work.
The pressure factor is perhaps the
most. outstanding. With high pres

practice unpopular.

A three cornered race is on this election time for
nomination for Judge of the Fifth Judicial district, Judge
Percy w. Metz, who has served this territory for fourteen
years is being opposed by Attorney H.. C. Bronze of Basin
and Attorney Thos. Marshal of Greybul.
Judge Metz has been a capable and efficient officer in the
Fifth Judicial district and has a strong following over the
entire basin country. During his service on the bench his
work has been altogether satisfactory, his decisions re-
versed in very few instances, and a character of justice
and fairness meted out to prisoners before the bar which
will merit him a strong vote at the primary election.
A vote for Percy w. Metz at the primary will be a
vote for a man who has every right to be returned to this
important office. His name will appear on the non-partisan
ballot, there is none of party politics mixed up in the
selection of the district judge and the Cody Enterprise takes
real pleasure in recommending Judge Metz to the people
of the Big Horn Basin as their selection for reelection.
