B By CORDY County Extension Agent for Horticulture As this is a late season, apples " will be ripening later than usual. Red Delicious should be ready to pink about the first of Octo ber with Yellow Newtown and winter varieties following a week or two later. The problem of storing apples at home in this area is rather difficult. Most so-called fruit cellars, which are either insul ated rooms or basements, are not good storage rooms for ap ples. Most of these fruit cellars at this early season of the year will be at a temperature of 60 to 70 degrees. This is not a good storage temperature but it is an ideal ripening temperature. Ap ples placed in these rooms will ripen rapidly 'rather than stor ing. "- Best' storage is generally ob tainedby leaving the apples on the tree and using them if need ed until we have had enough cold weather to naturally reduce the temperature in the fruit cel lar. If the apples must be picked because of dropping or the devel opment of water core then they could be best stored in the open on the north side of the building where .they would be chilled at Snow-Capped Peaks Greet Eisenhower - ' Fraser, Colo. U.R) The first snow of winter rimmed Presi dent Eisenhower's Rocky Moun tain hideaway today with a vista of glistening snow-capped peaks. A heavy rain during the night drenched the mountain valley in which the President is staying at the Byers Peak ranch of Den ver businessmen Aksel Nielsen and Carl Norgren. The tempera ture dipped to 32. No snow fell on Fraser, but Mr. Eisenhower awoke to find the area surrounded by snow covered mountains in the dis tance. Byers Peak itself, rising majestically behind the ranch to 12,790 feet, was solidly coated with snow. - , The snowy mountainsides vied with the golden, turning leaves of the mountain aspen in trying to steal at least part-of the Presi dent's attention from the cold, swift waters of his favorite fish ing stream. night and not warmed up too rapidly during the day. Then each night as the temperature gets down 'close to freezing, if cold air was circulated into the fruit room early in the morning with a fan the temperature of the room would soon be lowered to a point where it would pro vide good storage and the fruit could then be moved into it. On The Side By E. V. Durling (Distributed by King Fetre Syndicate. IncJ What is- your opinion of the practice of some resort hotels offering printed suggestions to guests as to how much they should tip the employees. I know some very generous fel lows and good tippers who have become extremely irritated by such suggestions. For example, when one man, his wife and two children entered the rooms' as signed them at a summer resort hotel one of the first things that confronted them was a card of "tip suggestions" placed there by the management. These included the suggestion that the waitress be tipped 25 cents per meal per person. That meant that the fam ily of four was expected to pay their waitress $21 a week in tips! Horses and Womn Following claims as to women have been checked by our Horses and Women experts and found to be accurate. Most na tural redheads are hot tempered. However, they are fun to make up with. Women who habitually wear hats are more intelligent than those who regularly go hat less. Women who were slender and become fat , through over eating are generally love starved. Green-gray eyed blondes are the most difficult females for a man to dominate. Yet if a man does not dominate his green-gray eyed sweetheart or wife she has no real respect for him.

It was first used by Fred Hillebrand in vaudeville and referred to his partner, Vera Michelina. Miss Guinan revised the plea slightly and made it immortal. What she said was, "Give the little girl a big hand." Norblad Blames Highway Bill Failure on Politics Salem (U.R) Congressman Walter Norblad (R-Ore.) blamed failure of the 84th Congress to pass national highway legisla tion on politics. Norblad told the Salem Cham ber of Commerce that the fail ure of Congress to pass President Eisenhower's "much - needed" highway program was due to politics on the part of both Re publicans and Democrats. Norblad said he favored ths pay-as-you-go plan over the bond issue plan suggested by the ad ministration, but he said he vot ed for both because he felt some highway program was impara-tive. Bogus Land Deals Bring Indictments Chicago U.R) Two men were indicted by a federal - Grand Jury yesterday on charges of fleecing customers of more than $12,000 in fraudulent govern ment land deals. Named were Louis R. Green, 27, Pacific Palisades, Calif., Jack M. Goodman, 39, Los Angeles, and the United Filing Service, Inc. of Chicago. A nine-count indictment con tained six counts of using the mails to defraud and three of broadcasting fraudulent an nouncements by radio. Asst. Dist. Atty.
