When the cuttings are made in the
fall it is only necessary to remove
the shoot, strip off the tape or paper
tube, make the basal cut in the eti-
olated area, and set it out Why
etiolation should favor the produc-
ton of roots on stem tissue is as
much ''in the dark" as the process
itself, says Doctor Gardner.
Several practical advantages are
seen for the process, mainly in that
it is easier and cheaper to make
cutting than a graft. One man can
wrap several thousand shoots in one
day. Too, there is a possibility of
avoiding variability common in root
stocks OF grated apple trees.
In many cases, however, it is
more desirable to grow apple trees
on roots other than their own. Some
varieties have root systems that
lack cold hardness and are sus-
ceptible to disease and insect at
tacks. The propagation of such va
rieties on their own roots would not
be desirable.

For hours they padded down the
long lake. Red throated looms dove
at their approach to scold them
from a distance with their wailing;
gulls rose from their nesting rocks
to flap lazily off the liquid mirror
that pictured sky and forest; shell
drake skittered along the shores,
haying the surface with their short
wings.
When the sun plunged behind the
low western hills, trimming the tun-
dra with fire, the lake still reached
before them, mile after mile, into
the north. They made camp on one
of group of islands edged with the
young green of sand-bar willows and
alders where. back from the peb-
bly, shore, the thick spruce and tam
arack would mask their fire from
the sharp eyes of the Naskapi.
Soon the hardy puppies, who had
been following the lake shore in
sight of the canoe, came swimming
out to the island. They were now
two years old and full grown. When

Apple Trees of the Future May Grow on
Their Own Roots, Nursery Expert Says

Apple trees Of the future may
grow on their own roots. In the
past the apple tree was an assem-
bled article with the fruit-producing
part grated to common root stock
such as the French crab variety.
This was necessary because seed
lings do not produce true to variety,
and because cuttings of stem tissues
would not take root.
Now scientists of the United
States Department of Agriculture
have developed a method by which
stem cuttings of apple varieties are
induced to form root initials or
points of origin on the stem that
promptly develop into roots when the
cuttings are taken from the tree
and set in the soil, thus doing away
with grating.
The process is described by DR..
F. z. Gardner. in charge of nursery
stock investigations for the bureau
of plant industry, as "etiolation.
The growing shoot is wrapped in
black tape when it starts to put out
leaves in the spring. A piece 212
to 3 inches long is sufficient to
wrap four or five times spirally
around the young shoot as near the
growing tip as possible. Another
method is to place a small black
paper tube over the shoot. ALI

Then the muttered "Ah-hahl" Of
the bowman centered the attention

"A fre!"

So, while Noel watched the point
and swept the shores behind it, the

CMART, nobby little jacket suits
- deftly tailored of woolens in art
full weave and aluringly colorful
are literally running away with
highest sartorial honors this season,
and no mistakeI They are the best
solution of the problem of what to
wear these days.
Beautifully tailored, trim and
bright as a new whistle, these little
suits are equally at home in town or
country and are taken as a matter
of course for the campus. The NOR
al of which is, if you haven't already
acquired a nifty jacket suit of vogu-
ish wooden, do it now" and you
will be prepared for any caprice of
weather.
1t is novelty fabric interest that
holds one spellbound in these cum
ming suits. There's all sorts of tricks
Of the trade employed in adding zest
to the fashion such as gaily pat
termed woods used for the jacket
with nubbly monotone for the skirt
or turn it around vice versa-skirt
of gay plaid or stripe, jacket in solid

high point in the game. Or if you
want some one weave or color to
play solitaire, it's all right with
Dame Fashion if the suit is all of
one tone and one texture, just so
it's vOguishly jacketed.
On the list of woods the fabric pro-
gram has to offer you'll find sport
ing tweeds in herringbone, shetland
or hubby types in devastating col
ors, fine soft woolens and coarse
meshed weaves you'll adore, and
plaids and stripes and shaggy
weaves fecked in multi-color.
Oh, it's a gay life modern wool
ems are leading.
The type of jacket that repeats
and repeats is the short fitted sort
after the models pictured. Either
single or double breasted closings
are fashionable, some few in wrap
around lines, uncollared necks shar-
ing honors with the classic notched
lapel styling. Skirts are slightly
shorter and follow, as rule. the
slim tailored line with action pro-
vided by pleats or smartly stitched
cores.
Novelty knit woolens, treated as
fabrics, are more popular than ever
this season for the jacket costume.
A knit wool costume in black is
smart in nubbed zephyr combining
striped and solid-color fabrics for
interesting contrast. The leather
belted jacket of striped fabric opens
casually to reveal the high band
neckline and tiny metal buttons Of
the striped blouse. The solid color
gored skirt has stitched inverted
seams. See this model pictured to

they had fed the ravenous dogs and
eaten their own supper of white-fish
and lake trout, Alan and Heather
sat on the shore in the long twi-
light. Suddenly Alan's rowing eyes
focused on a point of the shore
two miles up the lake.
THAT looks mighty like a canoe
to me, Heather" he said, rising,
his eyes still watching the distant
shore.
"A canoe? You don't think it's In
dians?" she asked. her voice husky
with apprehension.
I'm going for the glasses"
Something that looks like a ca
noe moving along the Shore" Alan
announced to the two men at the
tents.
All three hurried to the beach
and joined Heather. Focusing his
glasses. Alan gazed for a space
without comment, then handed them
to McCord. ITS hard to make it
out, John, against the green of the
shore, but it looks like a canoe"
For a long time McCord studied
the object in the distance. Then he
handed the glasses to Noel.
What do you think, Noel?"
The Indian was occupied with the
glasses and did not answer.
Heather's violet eyes grew dark
with dread. What will happen to
the dogs if they run into the Naskapi
on the shore?" she cried. "Oh,
don't want anything to happen to
the dogs!"
Alan smiled at her. She loved the
Ungavas as he did and the dogs
loved her. What, indeed, would hap
pen, he wondered, if they ran into
the Naskapi while they followed the
canoe along the shore?
At last, after long observation,
Noel turned to the others with a
twinkle in his small eyes.
Dat cano' ees deer!"
What? Deer?"
"Ah-hah! Dey are out in de lax
now. You see?" and he handed
the glasses to McCord.
Noel, you're right" said the big
man, after an interval. They were
all punched together and looked just
like a boat"

they ckurned the still surface of the
lake with the drive of their piston

Repelling Mice.-The smell of
peppermint is most obnoxious to
mice. A little oil of peppermint
placed about their haunts will
soon make them look for other
quarters.
Broken GiaSS.-Use a wet cloth
or dampened absorbent cotton to
pick up broken glass. Even the
tiniest bits will adhere to it. For
safety, discard cloth and all.
Mending the Wringer.-If
crack appears in the rubber roller
of your Wringer, bind the cracked
part tightly with adhesive tape 1t
stops the crack from spreading
and it does not come off.
Care of BOOk.-Never bend a
book backward to keep it open.
That weakens the back strap so
that the leaves will fall out. Use
a book mark or put small weight
on one corner of the book to keep
it open.
Care of Satin.-Freshen black
satin with potato water, sponging
on the right side and ironing on

as the canoe cautiously approached
with two rifles levelled on him.
When the boat was within calling
distance, cupping his hands, Noel
shouted in Montagnais: ''Kekway!
Kekway! Why do you build the fire?
What do you want? If you have
people hidden behind the rocks, we
will shoot you when they fire. Our
guns have great magic. They shoot

Noel was giving the Indian on the
beach careful inspection with the
binoculars. Shortly he grunted as
he handed them to McCord. ''He SO

"Ah-hah, dat man ees starve for

So, under cover of tnree rifles,
Alan pushed the canoe in to within
hundred feet Of the point of boul-
ders. AS the canoe approached the
Indian, it was evident to those who
watched him that he was in a starv-
ing condition. His dark face was
pitiably thin and he was apparent
ly so weak that he leaned against
boulder while he talked with Noel.
He was dressed from head to foot
in deerskin, coat, shirt, leggings and
moccasins, and he wore his hair in
the Naskapi manner, chopped off
at the shoulders.

sympathized Heather as Noel con-
versed with the Indian. MY! what

Notice how bright his eyes are?
That's a sure sign" said John.
Alan, understanding most of the
conversation, listened closely to No
els talk with the Naskapi. Then
Noel turned TO the others in the ca
noe while the stranger stared in
undisguised amazement at the gold
en- haired girl in the clothes of
man.

That explains it then. He wants

They took the young Indian in
the canoe and crossed to the island
where they had left the dogs. There,
while Noel made some caribou
broth and fed him sparingly, the
Indian told his story.

SEATTLE MAYOR
Who LOST JOB
John F. Dore, CoIorfuI
Labor Figure, Dies

SEATTLE, Wash, April 10
G.N.S0 Mayor John F. Dore,
Sc, one of the most colorful fig.
ures in the history of Pacific
Northwest politics, is dead. Ill for
more than year, Dore succumbed
to heart trouble, complicated by
blood poisoning and pneumonia.
Defeated in February in his
campaign for reelection, Mayor
Dore's term would have expired
June 6. Several days ago he was
relieved of the responsibilities Of
the office by the city council be-
cause of his illness.
Dore was first elected mayor in
1882 on an economy platform, but
he was defeated for reelection,
and city workers went into court
and had the pay cuts he had inn
posed restored.
SWITCHES TACTICS
In 1896, Dore switched tactics.
He obtained the support of labor
and made no mention of economy
pledges. Returned to office, Dore
publicly pledged allegiance to
Dave Beck, regional head of the
teamsters union and often re-
ferred to as the "labor czar'' Of
the Northwest.
Dave Beck elected me-" said
Dore. "This will be a labor ad.
ministration."
Dore made good his promise to
Beck. He upheld mass picketing
in all AFL strikes, even using
police to support the picketers. In
AFLCIO jurisdictional Disputes,
Dore threw the strength of the
city administration behind Beck,
and in CLIO strikes, Dore banned
mass picketing.
PUBLIC GETS TIRED
But his star began to wane
under a stirring of the public
against labor control Of city poll
tics.
This spring he was eliminated
in the primary by Arthur B. Lang
lie, conservative city councilman.
Born in CharleStown, Mass, he
came West at the age of IL, It
tended grammar and high school
here and then went to Harv I'D.
Returning to Seattle he worked as

iShing his law studies.
