Discussion of Last Weeks True False
Horticultural Statements

Discussion /. True. While nicotine
sulphate and mineral oil combinations
for second brood sprays do complicate
the residue removal at harvest time
they do no more so than does the use
of like amount of mineral oil with
out nicotine.
Discussion 2. True. While hydrochl-
ORIG acid as washing solution may
result in injury to fuorine sprayed ap-
pies, the use of sodium silicate is much
less likely to result in injury to the
washed fruit.
Discussion 3. False. While If hydro
chloric acid is used as a washing solu-
ton delays in washing after the apples
are harvested tend to increase the diff
f1culty Of effective residue removal,
with the use of sodium silicate as q
washing agent there is no increase in
the difficulty of removal of spray re-
sidues, and the effectiveness of clean
ing may be increased by the delay if
accompanied by wax development upon
the fruit.
True-false horticultural statements,

the United State has indicated de-
f1nitely, with few exceptions, that there
is no appreciable beneficial response
by apple trees to applications Of pot

2. } Apparently, with few excep-
lions, there has been little economic
benefit to apple trees from applications
Of phosphorus, except possibly indi-
rectly through Its possible effect upon
the cover crop, especially legumes.

tons, the continued annual application
Of phosphorus and potassium together
without nitrogen does not seem to ap-
preciably benefit the growth and fruit

OUT OF DATE

Scientific observers of the weather may tell us
that the "dog days" are over, but to most of us
the days are still warmer than is warranted by the
calendar.
Labor Day, which usually marks break in the
weather, and is usually considered as the official
end of summer and the beginning of autumn,
passed this year with but a slight decrease in the
temperature and substantial rise in the humidity.
While the weather has very little influence ON
growing crops in an irrigated region compared to
a dry farming area, the hot days and warm nights
are doing the fruit no good Apples are ripening
without colorng properly, and the worms, which
have had a very favorable season. are far worse
than in other years.
Let us hope that the weather will soon catch up
with the calendar and afford us a little relief

DON'T FORGET TO VOTE

Next Tuesday, September H. the voters of this
valley, well throughout the state, will have
an opportunity to express themselves on matters
OF county, state legislative and congressional Off
GERS through the primary election
The primary election as now constituted is per-
haps one OF the weakest features of representa-
tive democracy. Many voters in casting their ballot
for particular friend must desert the party of
their choice, thus making it possible for weak men
to get the nominations of that party.
The primary election, after all, is not general
election but is special election for the purpose of
nominating candidates from each of the two major
parties. Other parties nominate their candidates
through political conventions on the same day. If
the purpose of the primary election is to be pre-
served it is up to the voters to nominate men
whose party principles are their principles
At the election this year the issue will be clearly
divided. A voter has one of three Choices IF he
believes in the principles and actions of the pres
ent administration he should give them vote of
confidence byvoting the Democratic ticket for can
didates who have promised to work in harmony
during the next two years with the Roosevelt pro-
gram Ii ne believes in some of the principles or
actions OF the administration, but thinks that some
change should be made, he should vote the same
ticket but for men who will use their influence in
revising the program If he is opposed to the pres
ent government he should vote the Republican
ticket, thus expressing his dissatisfaction with
present methods ftS>1sx
lrregardless of friendships and enmities, it is
the duty Of the voter to see that men who are of
the same political complexion as himself are NOM
mated for office The principle of the primary cleo
ton is still all right it is through it's abuses that
it has failed so many times in the past-that weak
candidates have managed to win the nomination.
At no other time, perhaps, have local issues
been so overshadowed by national issues. While
we are all anxious to improve local government in
nonpartsan manner and while we realize that
our first consideration should be efficient local
government, the voters in casting their ballots this
year will be giving the federal administration
either vote of confidence or vote of dssatisfac-
ton.
Casting ballot at the election Tuesday is not
only the privilege but the duty Of all citizens in
terested in good government through efficient and
capable officers

.CUT IN HOURS SEEN
BOON FOR WOMEN
Federal Aide Says Benefit Is
Greatest, Won Under
N. R. A.

BY The Associated Press.
Shorter working hours have proven
the greatest benefit won by women
workers under N. r. A says Mary
Anderson. director OF the Women's
Bureau of the Labor Department in
a review of the first year of industrial
codes.
Prior to n. r. A.. some employers
had adopted a. to 4S hour week
schedules. but in other factories, par
ticularIy in the South. the 55-hour
week was the prevailing schedule, "
Miss Anderson said.
The individual and social cost Of
such long hours would be staggering
If it we're possible to measure the
health of thousands OF women who
have had to pay the price of excessive
work
Let me illustrate with the case Of
one woman. For 20 years. since she
was IA years old, she has worked for
54 to Sc hours week.
Woman Gained 20 Pounds.
Under the code her work was re-
duced to eight hours a day. five days
a week. In three months she gained
20 pounds.
Il believe the shorter working week
is even more welcome to women than
TO men, since both single and mar
ried women must often perform home
duties after factory hours"
