MISS QUINLAVS MUSIC
RECITAL WELL RECEIVED
I
That student recitals are a popn-
lar feature In Grants Pass was evl-(
denced by the presence of a large j
audience which filled Mr. Field's!
spacious studio Friday evening almost
to overflowing. And seldom has a re
cital given by an Individual student
awakened such enthusiasm and
choice comment on the part of mus
ical people as the recital In this In
stance, which was given by Miss Ber-
nlce Qulnlan. '
Miss Qulnlan's program was In it-'
self rather unusual on account of one!
or two ultra-classic numbers not of-j
ten. to be heard from either Btudents j
or artists. It is this fact which af
fords a clew In estimating Miss Qutn- j
lan's ability, as such compositions, It '
Is unlverally recognized, can be mas
tered only by students possessing the
highest talents. And this also in con
nection with the youthfulnes of the
performer testifies the possession of
very rare gifts.
The Bach Prelude . and Fugue,
which renowned players have found
taxing on most occasions, was deliver
ed faithfully from memory, with fin
ished beauty. Numbers Hlte the Kul
lak octave study, which called for
great technical strength, were exe
cuted with speed approaching brav
oura, while Grelg's interesting varia
tions, which required qualities of bal
ance and repose, were played with a
satisfactory Intelligence, and the in
terest sustained throughout the en
tire length In spite of tedious diffi
culties which the composition present
ed to the performer.
Willing applause from an appre
ciative audience did much to Inspire
the young pianist. Miss Qulnlan, who
has not yet finished her course In the
Grants Pass high school, Is an un
assuming young lady and accepts the
laurels from the musical event with
modest appreciation. Many of her
friends prophesy for her a brilliant
future when training and maturity
snail, have completed the rounding
out of her talents.

County Fruit Inspector J. F. Burke
issues "a warning that the present
week is about the limit for time to
spray for codling moth, else it will be '
too late to destroy the first crop of j
the insects. The inspector also ad
vises orchardlsts to cut out the sour!
sap spots, caused by heat of the sun j
after a hard frost. Mr. Burke sends
the following communication on the
subject to The Courier. .
'"The time to spray- with arsenate
of lead for codling moth is now at
hand. Every orchard should be
sprayed during this week else It will
be too late to exterminate the first
crop of the pest.
"The calyx will close and the spray
will be useless if it is not applied at
just the proper time. lTce 26 pounds
of lead to 50 gallons of water and
apply thoroughly.
"I find a number of our young or
chards are troubled with sour sap,
caused by the frost. The sun strik
ing them in the morning after a hard
frost causes the sap to sour. You
will notice reddish spots on the south
side of the tree. t
"Unless thdse spots are cut out
you will be very likely to lose the
tree. Some growers have mistaken
this trouble for blight.
"The second spraying for codlins
moth will come in about two weeks.
"J. F. BURKE,
"County Fruit Inspector."

ing Powder have always declined
to produce a cheap baking powder
at the sacrifice of quality.
Royal Baking Powder is made from
pure grape cream of tartar, and is
the embodiment of all the excellence
possible to be attained in the high-
est class baking powder.
Royal Baking Powder costs only a
fair price, and is more economical
at its price than any other leavening
. agent, because of the superlative
quality and absolute wholesomeness
of the food it makes.
Mixtures made in Imitation of taking powders, tut containing alum,
are. frequently distributed from doof to door, or given away in grocery ,
stores. Such mixtures are dangerous to use in food. In England,
France, Germany and some sections "of the United States their sale it
prohibited by law. Alum is a dangerous mineral add, and all
physicians condemn baking powders containing it
