PAYETTE VALLEY HAS A BIG FRUIT CROP Payette, Idaho. According to esti mates given out by the big orchard men and the managers of the large packing houses, 450 can of winter apples will be shipped from this point and 150 cars of prunes. This is a very conservative estimate, and the shipments may exceed, hat number, The question of securing help Is a most serious one, but the women of the valley can always be depended upon to lend their assistance in times of need, and many who do not as a rule work In the orchards and pack ing houses will do so this year. This means that many thousands of dollars will be returned to the growers' wives and daughters which would otherwise be paid out to help, which in many cases Is most Incompetent, although demanding 12.25 and $2 50 per day.

The sensational murder of Madame Gouln came shortly after the Steln heil case caused a furore throughout FjTance. At the outset there were no clues, and the authorities admitted tnemseives Darned until passengers upon the train recalled that they had seen two French soldiers In uniform, who had acted suspiciously, leave the train. The degradation of Graby and Michael before their regiment took place recently. It was a solemn scene. . One of the interesting school fetes recently was the distribution of cer tificates of progress and capacity at the City of Paris Technical School for Girls. It is strictly a school for "trades and housekeeping," and is in the Rue Fondary. To enter it a girl must have gone through the whole primary course at a communal school. The age limits are from 18 to 15, and the pupil leaves at the end of the third year. The great houses of busi ness show a keen Interest In their work, and generosity by sending ma terials for them to work upon. The competition among them to secure the services of graduates is keen also. Some girls have entered on schol arships given by the city. Others pay fees. A great number, aa deservlnir ! pupils at primary schools, are receiv ed because they are poor and good girls. The directress alone knows of the poverty of their families. All the girls take turns in the kitchen in pre paring the mid-day meal, which is for the whole school. Thev also take turns in helping the "housekeepers' to tidy up. There are eight trades di visions namely, modes, artificial flowers and feather mounting, chil dren's dresses, embroidery of tissues for wearing apparel and furniture, corsets, ladles' vests and Jackets, Un gerie, clear starching and fine iron ing. All the housekeepers practice plain sewing, mending and darning.

Rice, secretary and manager ot the National Apple Show. "While climate, soil, sunshine and moisture are, of course, the chief factors In ap ple growing, we believe that when an exhibitor receives a prize because his apples are packed better than all others, he wins personal recognition fir his skill and knowledge.
