THURSDAY, JANUARY 26, 1911.: PUN FOR SELLING IfET TO BE DEVISED Later Meeting of Applegrow ers at Walla Wa!!a to Act With Authority. DIVERGENT VIEWS SHOWN Grading of Product of Various I.o calltlra Presents Problem In De tailsStorage la Transit Rale Pl)ied. Unable to agree upon ao Immediate plan for forming a corporation which would handle the apple crop of the Pacilc Northwest, tha MO apple orchard owner who have ben In session for two days at tha Y. M. C. A. adjourned lata yesterday afternoon to meet la Walla Walla February 2. Inability to airree was diw to the larre number of fruitgrowers present and thalr dlvercent views. Thera also ei Istett the fart that the irrowera were preient In their Individual capacities and not as authorlind representatives of their various associations. Ilenre they were not In a position to bind anybody but themselves If decisive action had been taken. A resolution was adopted which seta forth the substanre of the action taken by tha convention. It recoantaea the .fart that a central selling asenry la essential to the welfare of the apple Industry. To secure one. It Is sureested that all districts not orcanlsed form an apple-RTOwers association: that district associations select one delegate to the Walla Walla meeting and that this dele rate body, small In numbers, have the duty of organizing and denning the duties of the new organizations. The value of this crop last year was j...vv. but It will Increase rapidly In coming years. . Final Authority looking. If. G. Otis, of Wenatchee, Wash., chair man of the committee of sixteen which had for Its purpose the forming of a central selling agency, reported at the morning session. lie said that the com mittee had worked until midnight and had been unable to come to any other conclusion than that the Portland meet ing did not have the required authority, for there were no official delegatea from the apple-grow era' association. I'or this reason, the committee had reached the conclusion that It would be better to have another meeting, at which the official representatives could be present. We have made good progress." said Mr. Otis. "We are all agreed that the central selling agency Is the one thing which will keep the Industry out of dire traits. I believe that we are approach ing a cond.tlon where H will require careful nursing of our product to secure for us a legitimate profit. Apple-growers have plenty of Ideas, and they are no different from any other body of men. But to get down to business It requires a small and compact body who repre sent something else besides their own orchards. We must have a delegate body if men. Teat is why we adjourned to Walla Walla." The convention was divided In lta views, though there was no dispute as to the value- of a well-organized selling agency. The difference came about In the effort to establish a standard of ralues of apples from different districts. Details to Be Adjusted. If all were members of the same sell ing agency, the question naturally would arise how this difference would be adjusted. Then the grades of apples,, their nomenclature, their exact deter mination and other minutiae become In volved In the arrangement of details. It was after the committee had dis cussed these questions that It agreed upon calling another meeting of dele gatea with power to bind their associa tions. Before the adoption of the report. E. H. Shepard. of Howl River, editor of Better Fruit, said that he was not opposed to the organization of a selling agency, but be could not see a way to perfect such an organization at the present time, and that he had beard of no plan which would solve the problem. lie still .held to these views, but d.sslred to have It understood that he favored unions and i.ssoclatlon work, he said. Miles Cannon, of Welser, Idaho, said that In his opinion the problem of creat ing a selling agency would be solved t Walla Walla and he was decidedly In favor of the resolutions, which were as follow: Wh-ram pursuant to the call for a con vention of tn.

To recommend that the local assoclatlona already In existence sh.ill at once form a non-incorporated bureau for establishing uni form grarisa of fruit, obtaining comprehen sive Information concerning rnarketa and marketing, and dlesemtnattng tha same to membera of such organlzalons to encoursge and assist la the formation of local asso ciations, and formulate a general plan for a central selling assncy: that we recommend that the associations already organized send dsiscatts to a meeting to be held for this purpose at Walla Wa'.la. Washington, on the last Tuesday In February, lull, and we. your commit t so. further re-oirtmend that i M Brown, Secretary of Washlt.gten b'tate Horticultural Hoclety of Walla Walla, keep In touch with the local associations through out the Northwest with a view to securing s representative and large attendance at the Wa'la Wa!!a meeting. Pe it further Ke solved. thet It is the sense of this conven tion thst suhsfanttsl progress hss oeen oiaile by this convention In establishing the cen tral selling agency which we all agree la necessary and bound to come In the near 'uture. Be It further Resolved, that the members of this convention from Washing ton and Idaho are grateful to th ureton tate Horticultural isclcty for calling this meeting and giving us this opportunity for clearing awav many obstacles to closer or ganisation and the accomplishment of our ultimate purpose Storage in Trans-It Discussed. The committee appointed by Presi dent Atwell to consider the subject of "Storage of Fruit in Transit" com posed of H. M. Gilbert, of North Tak Irna. Wash.: H. E. Bacon, of Spokane, Wash., and C. E. Whlsler. of Medford- recommended that the meeting appoint a standing committee of five to present the demands of the apple-growers to the proper authorities and co-operate with other organizations now working to secure a storage In transit rate for apples. It was argued that the apple season now last only 100 days and tbat It was desirable through storage house to extend It several months. To accom plish thla there must be some plarwto ship the apple direct to cold storage In the East. To do thla the apples must be shipped across the Rocky Mountains before Winter set In and In doing this. It wa contended, the apple-grower ahould have the same privilege as Is accorded to the stockmen and the miller. The torsew-ln-translt rata committee named by President Atwell la contused of II. M. Gilbert, of North Ytklma; II. W. Otis, of Wenatchee. Wash.; Fremont Hood, of Boise. Idaho; C. E. -Whlsler, of Medford. and C It. Sproat, of Hood River. On the grades of apples tha conven tion wss divided. H. M. Gilbert, of the firm of Gilbert ft Richard, of North Yakima, favored the naming of the best grade "extra fancy." John F. Bugrue. of Cajthmere. Wash., favored three grades "extra fancy." "fancy" and "C." When the main question reached the delegates for the vote. It proposed that the three grades be "extra fancy." standard" and "C." Thl passed. E. Meacham, of Walla Walla, after pleading for a change of thla grading, secured consent for the appointment of a committee to prepare a definition of the grades at the meeting at Walla Walla. The convention discussed National ap ple bog legislation. C. E. Whlsler de voted an hour to dissecting the law and It application to the applo Indus try op the Northwest. The delegate after becoming guests of the Commercial Club adjourned. WHISKY CURE RETOLD E. W. MOORE'S TUBERCULOSIS ItF.MEDY IX DEMAND. Prescrlber IVIagrnl With Inquiries a. to Fume-Inhalation Treatment, Formula Is Published Again. K. W. Moore, whose philanthropic motives prompted him to publish a simple formula for the cur of tuber culosis of the lung some time ago. ha been deluged with letters and ap peal for Information about hi "cure." which waa published In The Oregonian December 11. and. the tasua of that lumber being exhausted. Mr. Moore re quests that the formula be reprinted. lie asserts that the letters be has received are so numeroua and coma from so many points that ba will shortly ba In need of "a stenographer to reply to them. .The formula prescribed by Mr. Moore and by which he say he has cured two friends whose names he with holds, but who, ba says, ar ready to substantiate th merit of his remedy to any bona fide patient desiring the treatment, lta: "Take a small cask or keg; which has contained strong whisky; one that ha contained the liquor for more than a year, and which la thoroughly satur ated with the fumes. If a gallon cask or keg Is secured It la much more con venient. Into thla cask or keg pour Just enough stronjr whisky to dampen the Inside of the keg and to preserve the fumes. To the buoghole attach a rubber tube long enough to permit the lnhalatloa of tha fumes by the patient without the necessity of holding the keg In the arms. ' Inhale the fume from thl keg every morning and at night, especially at night just before retiring, and Inhalation often during the day will not hurt. Keep up the treatment until permanently cured." Mr. Moore said be had gained this Idea from having heard several physi cians prescribe whisky a a cure for lung trouble and he conceived the Idea that Inhaling , tha fume would prove much more beneficial than drink ing of the liquor, for the reason that only a small portion of the liquor would affect the lung when consumed a a liquid, whereas Inhaling of the fume would directly affect every cell of the lungs. It Intend that It la the fumes which kill the tubercular germ. A amall whisky keg caa be secured at a nominal price and the cure I Inexpensive.

Surveys Hare been completed ud ar rangements have been made for a re construction of the Southern Pacific's Hoe between Natron and Springfield, and people ot Spring-field take this aa a positive forerunner of the announce ment by tha railroad officials that the company's shops and yarda, to be util ised when the Natron-Klamath cut-off Is completed, probably one year hence, will be constructed there. The company owns 60 acres at Springfield, which It never haa shown a disposition to use, but with the recent activity In connection with reconstruc tion work rumors have been afloat that this property la to become the site for an immense yard and large round house, repair shops and ' division of fices. Springfield eltisens already are picturing themselves .two years from now as the Inhabitants of a great rail road center. While explaining that the company intends to reconstruct the road between Natron and Springfield In order to make it conform with the high trackage that will be placed on the new main line between Klamath and Natron, J.

The gap between the two points now is less than 100 miles wide. The pres ent contracts call for the construction of about one-half the entire distance of 143 miles. -As soon as these tasks are completed It Is probable that the construction of the remainder of the line will be authorized. The gap will require less time in building than the two end sections. Residents of Klam ath Falls and some of the contractors figure that the new road can be ready for use as early as January 1, 1912.

WATER BONDC AWARDED Council Allows $500,000 Issue to New York and Boston Firms. Water bonds valued at $500,000 were awarded by the City Council yesterday to R. L. Day & Co., Estebrook A Co.. and Blodgett & Company, of New York and Boston, for $481,000, as their bid was the highest offered for the issu. There were three other bidders for the issue. Some of the bidders expressed a doubt concerning the obligation of the city at large to pay for the bonds in case the Water Board was not capable of redeeming- them. The new law. provides that the money shall be paid from the water fund. But City Attorney Grant has ruled that as the law does not say the water fund alone must provide the money, the city at large can assume the responsibility. Much of the money received for the bopds will be used in repaying prop erty owners the money they spent in laying mains, which will now be taken over by the water department.
