The committee of judges for the
seventh National Apple Show to be
held in Spokane the week of Novem
ber 16, has been annoupced as fol
lows: A. P. Bateham, former presi
dent of the Oregon Horticultural so
ciety, Benior judge; Charles Hamilton,
of North Yakima, chief inspector for
the North Pacific Fruit Distributors,
and V. S. Thornber, former bead of
the department of horticulture of the
Washington State College.
All members of the committee are
thoroughly familiur with the apple in
dustry of the northwest and the varie
ties that will be entered in competi
tion. A new departure In judging will
be put In practice this year. All rib
bons will be up, If possible, after the
second day of the show, and for the
first time in the history of the show
the score cards as made up by the
Judges will be tacked up with , the
competing exhibits for public exam
ination. This feature of the work, it
is believed by the trustees of the show,
will add materially to the educational
value of the competitions, and exhib
itors as well as the general public will
be given an opportunity of seeing
where the blue ribbon winners excelled.
Whin Totality Oocurt Nature Takoe en
an Awesome Aspect.
A total eclipse of the sun is a won
derful sight. Where the eclipse is but
partial the disk of the moon will
creep across the face of the sun little
by little, but will never completely ob
scure the orb. But where "totality
occurs the sun at a given moment will
be entirely obliterated and the inhabi
tants of the regions across which the
black band will stretch will perceive the
most wonderful phenomenon known to
astronomers the display of the "coro
na" of the sun.
Great waves of incandescent gas
hundreds of thousands of miles long,
reaching out from the sun Into the
ether, will be perceived. The country
side will take on a sinister, night gray
color, and tints of nature will pale and
deaden ns ut twilight, the temperature
will diminish sensibly, the birds, be
fieylng night has come, will cease their
song and seek their nests. A person
who has never seen this strange mani
festation of nature cannot form any
Idea of lis awesome aspect
This eclipse is a recurring phonom
enon. At the end of every period of
eighteen years and eleven days the
moon comes between the earth and
the sun at just such an angle that the
sun's light is completely shut off from
a portion of the world and partially
shut off from n much larger part-
New Yurk World.

A BILLION DOLLARS.
The Time It Would Take an Expert to
Count Them Singly.
.1 wonder If we realize when we talk
of a billion dollurs what an enormous
sum of money it means?
We nil know how rapidly an expert
counter of coins will manipulate them.
You can scarcely follow the motion of
his fingers as he shifts the coins from
one pile to another and counts them.
The treasury experts will count 4.000
sliver dollars In an hour and keep It
up all day long, but that is their limit.
Working eight hours a day. then, un
expert counter of coins will count 32.
000 silver dollars in a day. but how
long will it take him at that rate to
count $1,000,000? Thirty-one days.
But that is only the beginning of the
measurements of great figures, for if
this snmo man were to go on counting
silver dollurs at the same rate of speed
for ten years he would find thnt he had
only counted 100.000,000 of them and
thnt to count $1,000,000,000 would re
quire 102 years of steady work at the
rate of eight hours a day during every
working day of every one of the 102
years. -O. I. Austin. Former Chief of

Wind and the Sun.
Wind does not always go down with
the sun. but niny blow from high to
low. after sunset If wind starts to
fill .up a low pressure nreu before sun
set it is liable to keep pouring in until
it Is filled and equilibrium restored.
If wind stops exactly ut Instant of sun
set one may rest assured that the area
of barometrical depression Is filled. If
wind blows from sea to lund by day it
may atop at sunset and reverse direc
tion., If it does the cause is Hint at
sunrise the sun's radiant energy heats
the land more than it does the water.
The land warms the air. Increases Its
rarity, and It rises, producing a lower
pressure area, and cooler air from over
the ocean rushes In to fill it. After
sunset land cools in less time than the
water, and the direction of How Is re
versed. But this niny not always oc
