EYES LOS ANOELES, Cal., Doc. 13. Scheduled to leavo today for Now York, Jim Flynn carried on his shoulders sufficient woes and griefs to bow down tho head of a minstrel end man, which lncludo tho follewing: A face, Inside and out painful, tho result of Luther McOarty's wallops. Ho claims his seconds, nonetheless, offcctlrcly, If mistakenly, dribbles nmmonia Into his eyes in tho interim before tho disastrous ninth round of tho McCarty battle. Ho claims he was "not even dazed" by McCarty'a blows and that tho fight should not havo been stopped whilo ho had a chnnco to win. Ho wants to bet $3000 he can lick tho winner of tho McCarty-Palier battle Now Year's Day. Flynn will try for matches la New York beforo returning. 0RCHAR0ISTS LOSE $1,000,000 BY WASTE IN BY-PRODUCTS (From tho Pacific Coast Packer.) Tho growers In tho northwest are beginning to reallio that with tho In creased production tho prices on tho famous big red apple will haro to bo lowered to tho lorol of more pocket books, in order to put tho fruit Into consumption, llaallzlng this fact, they are casting about for ways and means to rcduco their fixed charges nnd over-head expenses. Tho 10c per hundred for storago la transit, and tho 20 or 2Gc per box for storago In markets, or nt least a portion of theso amounts, tho growers say they are going to try to save. Picking, packing, hauling and ship ping to markets within a period ot nlxty days, fifteen or twenty thous and cars of apples, with lack of facil ities, insufficient help and tho short age of cars, Is a very cxpenslvo prop osition. Tho crying necessity, grow ers believe, nnd tho ono which will rollovo tho entire situation, Is more storago at home. This, however, does not necessarily mean cold stor ago. With dry storago boubes such as are found In tho Wenatchee val ley, after tho picking nnd hauling, tho movement may he conveniently wado during a four or flvo mouths period Instead of two, Much prep aration must bo made. According to Indications tho year 1915 may pro duce a crop of 40,000 cars; somo say 50,000 cars Jrr Oregon, Washington and Idaho. If this crop must be moved In a sixty-day period it would mean about 800 cars a day of tho refrigerator kind, moved cast over u haul ot probably 2000 miles. Even with one-third of this crop, during tho prevent season tho transcontinen tal lines were unprepared to cope with tho situation. Million Loss in Fruit Waste It is estimated that close to a mil lion dollars Is being lout this season by growers in tho great northwest not having enough facilities to con sumo their oft grades, windfalls and .culls. Tho great northwest Is very lacking in evaporators, canneries, cider and vinegar plants. In some ot tho districts In the northwest thoro wcro from 30 to CO per cont ot tho apples lying on tho ground in tho heart ot tho packing season. Over Jn tho Spokane country In many or chards, after tho leaveB hud fallon and tho first snow was on tho ground there were thousands of boxes ot np pies still on tho trees. Tho trow ors who are not In tho commercial bull, or In districts where packing and shipping facilities havo not yet been established, are very much dis co urngod. THE activities of the Oregon Agricultural college mv multifarious. Not content with referendum cainpaigiiH to ruin the state university, the O. A. C. is now planning to control horticulture in Oregon and at the same time build un a powerful political machine at state expense. A bill has been propnred J or submission to the legisla ture, abolishing the state board of horticulture ami creat ing a state commissioner of horticulture at a salary of $2,500, with $2,000 expenses, $7f0 more Tor incidentals, $900 for office rent and $1200 for clerk a total of $7:i."0. The bill is ostensibly fathered by the state horticultural society a self-perpetuating and useless institution that draws an nnnronriation unauthorised by law of several thousands of dollars of taxpayers' money for an annual show at Portland. The draft of the bill reads: 1. All horticultural laws of Oregon are hereby ruponled. ? nm,. nf inti commissioner of hortloulturo Ik crtxittul. filled by .innnlntmoiit hv tho following beard: Governor of Oregon, prooldent of the stnti horticultural society, nnd horticultural of tint Oregon Kxporl meutal Station, I'onullls. But the O. A. C. is not satisfied with control of the appointment, but also would dictate the chief deputy as follews: It. Commissioner shall appoint a deputy who slmll bo a scientific horticulturist. Deputy must bo approved by thu following advisory board beforo being eligible to appeintment: Uortleulurlat. Kotomologliit and Pathologist of tho Oregon Experimental Station, Corvallls, Oregon. The bill provides that tho commissioner shall appoint inspectors to tho number of forty, to be approved by the O. A. C. "advisory board." at a salary of $o per day and transportation, paid for by the state. The bill further provides that the commissioner shall appoint an indefinite number of "quarantine guardians" at a salary of $(5 nor day and expenses, to be approved by the O. A. C. "advisory board." The bill, if passed, will impose a heavy burden on the taxpayers probably exceeding a hundred thousand dol lars a. year and create a strong political machine, personal ly directed by the O. A. C. Under tho present law, the commission is provided but little needed nionev. It cannot enforce a clean-un cam paign without it, but by strengthening tho law, counties can be compelled to clean-up orchards at their own ex pense through tho commission. Tho proposed bill will destroy the present efficient system of inspection in vogue in Jackson county, which is maintained by an increased assessment proportioned according to age, upon orchard property, hence paid for by those benefitted. This destruction of local control is proli ably the real reason for the O. A. C. activity, for the many mistakes made by its horticultural experts and experi- mentists here have met sharp criticism. The orchards in the Corvalbs section do not compare in cleanliness with those of Jackson county, and the college experts have not demonstrated, their efficiency in their own section sufficiently to be placed in charge of the entire state. "Why should the burden of horticultural inspection be placed on the state? "Why not lcavtj.it with tho counties affected? Why build up an expensive political machine at the expense of all the taxpayers to benefit a small class of property owners? 'Pine rti'mincrtrl fwlvicnw lirmrl nf "lini'f ittlf iPisr. mitn- .A...? UJWUV .. JV.7 .... vr. ..ww. ... ..j, ...' mologist and pathologist" ot tlie u. A. j. to control Horti culture m urcgon, is reminiscent ol an aa recently primco in Sunset Magazine which states: "A president and thrco members of tho faculty ot a large agricultural college organized tho Oregon Apple Company. Tho services of nn expert horticulturist, highly recommended by the Oregon Agricultural College wore secured. O. A. CO. orchards are twenty mile south from Corvallls, borne of the Oregon Agricultural College." Stock units are offered for sale in this concern in which state employes use their official connection to advertise their personal property and artfully convey an idea of official supervision, at "one third down, with dignified terms, no interest and no taxation in the selling plan." What a vista of opportunity would be opened to such enterprising scientists with absolute control of the horti cultural interests of a state!
