With Authority.
DIVERGENT VIEWS SHOWN

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. Fruit Orosjsrs" Association
lf th. Nrthsrst to conrMer the advisa
bility of nronlllm an all Norlhsjsst selling

supported, r-r them, and whereas, numerous
districts affected hy eurh an orsanlzatmn
have not as yet formed h-si organizations,
and. whereas, th. perfection of a central
distributing and selling arsney is of fltal
Importance to the growers of the North
west, therefore, be It resolved, that It la
tMe sense of this meeting thai It Is essential
t.-i the future weltare .f the fruit Industry
of the Northwest that the grower, should be
united In one strong central selling organi
sation for mutual benefit and protection
which shall be based on representation from
local organization througtiout the states

central organization to formulate rules and
regulators for securing a uniform grade and
f) pack of fruit to be shipped and to act as
a general sales agency through which the
fruits of the members of the local asso

To recommend that the local assoclatlona
already In existence sh.ill at once form a
non-incorporated bureau for establishing uni

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

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.

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.

Present Contract Sooth or Natron
to Be Completed In Jnly; Gap Is
Then to Be Filled.
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. P.
O'Brien, general manager of the -Southern
Pacific in Portland, denied yester
day that the plans include extensive
improvements at SprlngHeld.
"That is only a rumor," he declared,
"and has no foundation whatever. Our
present line la to be reconstructed so

J Work on the new Southern Pacific
lng. It is expected that the present
contracts will be completed before July
1, as will those for the construction of
the new line from the Klamath end.
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.
With the completion of this track

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.
