Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Mrs. r. v. writes: eff you have the
time to spare, will you write an article
about the practice of older mothers
soaring young prospective mothers? I
believe it is quite common and ap-
parently much enjoyed by older women.
I feel certain that one Of your inter-
esting articles, read by so many, would
do very much good and make those
well-meaning friends see how much
harm they are doing. During this con-
dition I have enjoyed life as much as
ever and have been feeling perfectly

tic about this normal event. But one
week of visiting with an elderly relative
has about wrecked my nerves, in spite
of the fact that this old lady is very
good to me, and I am fond of her and
usually happy with her. I have heard
nothing but conversation about the
dangers and terrors of childbirth until
I have felt that few more days of
entertainment along this line would
have me in Mysteries. My best wishes
for the new year for your happiness"

Just why Older matrons insist on
parading their experiences to young
mothers at time when their emotions
are so concerned will always remain
mystery. It Is an experience which can
be unique for every mother and no one
can refute her statements, however In

BILE n DING

BECAUSE coffee is so important,
every household has its favorite
way of making it. But whether your
coffee is percolated, dripped, or boiled
in an old-fashioned pot, one thing is
above all necessary the coffee itself
must be right to start with.
The creator of the matchless, mellow
flavor of Maxwell House Coffee went
back to this first principle.
He was gentleman of the Old South
bred in the South's tradition of good
iying-and he knew coffee. He had
tried them all-the "heady" coffees of
Arabia, the mild coffees of Java, the rich
and syrupy coffees of Brazil-and every
one was tantalizingly not quite perfect.
So he had the inspiration to make new
coffee favOr-to combine in one gor-
geous drink the diverse virtues of many

PEAR HARVEST over,
JONATHAN HARVEST ON

The harvesting OF the Bartlett pear
crop in the valley was finished last
Saturday and the D'Anjous will prob
ably all be picked by the end of this
week UP to September /. thirty cars
had rolled from this valley to market:
% cars from White Bluffs and cars
from Hanford. Of these 80 cars, two
thirds, or 20 cars, went to the Gamer
les, while 10 cars contained packed
pears for the fresh fruit market. On
Tuesday there were still cars Of
Bartletts, purchased by the canneries,
in the cold storage plant at White
nluffs. The warehouse men estimate
that there were probably IS more cars
that had not yet been packed Tuesday,
making total of SO cars of Bartletts
and D'Anjous produced in the valley
this year. The Winter Nellis and
Cycle pears will not mature until later.
No definite estimate has yet been
made of the tonnage of these two
varities.
The harvesting OF tile Jonathans
apples began last week and up to
Monday morning Hanford had rolled
8 cars and White Bluffs IL cars and
it is estimated by the warehouses that
like number of cars will be shipped
this week. TIE picking, up to the 5th,
was mostly for color and size but if
the apples continue to take on color
and size the way they have the past
few days most Of the growers plan to
begin stripping the trees Monday and
to get the bulk Of them into the ware
houses next week.
That the growers generally have adj
hered this year 10 :. persistent
spraying program is indicated
by the small amount of worm
damage in both the pears and
! Jonathan apples, warehouse men re-
porting the cleanest crop in several
years. The season, 40; has been ideal
for the worms, the long and COMPARE
lively cool spring carrying the first
brood far into the period ordinarily
dominated by the so-called second
brood. This condition proved rather
disastrous to those fruit districts in the
state that have been following a rather
limited spray program. In the Wen
atchee valley, according to newspaper
accounts, horticultural authorities esti-
mate the worm damagesswill~ cost the
growers there in the peighborhood of
S4,000,000 in culls and the reduction
in grades and will also result a 20 per
cent downwal,l revision in previous
estimates of the total tonnage to be
produced in that valley this season
OF this damage r. Edward Trumble,
Wenatchee horticulturalist, is quoted
as saying:
During the twenty-five years that
I have followed the worm problems
here" Trurnble said, my estimates
!. show that during thxtSperiod grow
ers have lost more than $51, 00O, 900
dollars to worms. This year we had
the hardest fight with the worms, and
it required thorough spraying and care
full timing to get complete control,
and the grower who missed even "a
few days ON tire first brood is out of
luck now"
Trumble stated that a number Of
winter banana crops picked so far
have run from 40 to 70 per cent worms
! It is estimated that reduction of
20 per cent of the volume Of the apple
crop which the loss this year will in
cur will have a vital effect on the
apple market conditions, and may re-
suit in complete revision of apple
values.
