MR. PALMER ON NEW TRAIL An interesting dispatch comes out of Harrisburg, Pa., about Attorney General Palmer, avowed democratic presidential aspirant. It appears that he had a heart-to-heart confab with a number of democratic leaders who will espouse his candidacy in Pennsylvania. After the conference was over, Mr. Palmer gathered the newspaper men around him and gave out an interview about campaign issues. "The peace treaty and the league of nations will be the big issues for the coming campaign," he is quoted as saying. Then he added that prohibition will probably be discussed, but whether it will become an issue rests largely with the candidates. Where and whither went the big plank of the Palmer platform, upon which he had been carpentering for months and months? Where, oh, where were the knock-out drops for the high cost of living? Vanished as completely as though the earth had opened while the conference was in progress and had swallowed it up. In all likelihood that is exactly what happened there. Those democratic leaders in all probability told Mr. Palmer that the plank upon which he had been so laboriously working for months was as rarified and as tenuous as the air in which Mr. Wilson heard his strange voices and possessed no substantiality in image or in fact. In short, those leaders doubtless told Mr. Palmer that he had better leave off all his club-dub about having knocked the socks off the high cost of living. If not, why should Mr. Palmer immediately call the newspaper men together and wander off into a new trail? And as for sugar, not a word was uttered by the sacchariferous attor- Pereira's String Quintet Noted Portuguese Violinist and Composer Bert Concerto Paul Pereira, famous Portuguese violinist, director and the third day of Chautauqua a memorable one to all music lovers of Portugal and has achieved a big name in the European music community and largely of his own composition, consonant in the evening.

WOMEN VOTERS Number of women 2 and over in the United States based on 1910 census lowrance is made for all Alabama POLITICAL PARAGRAPHS There's one good thing about Lansing's successor in the cabinet. He's not a college professor. The people of this country are looking to the republican party for a restoration of safe and sane government. Lloyd George and Millerand are willing to go along with the president in settling the Flume case. That ought to satisfy the world. Bainbridge Colby, Lansing's successor, left the republican party for the progressive and left the progressive party for the democratic. He progressed until he arrived. Once more Bryan is endeavoring to shy his castor into the ring. Constant defeat does not appear to phase this leader of the democratic party, and apparently he would again become the whole show. It would be a mercy to many democrats in the senate is some one would cut the strings by which the president makes their minds go unwillingly along with his. They seem to be afraid to cut the strings themselves. If recent months have revealed anything it is that the paring knife should be liberally applied at Washington and the republican congressmen are doing nothing more popular than their efforts to stop the useless expenditures. President Wilson, when he emerged from retirement and blew up his state department, complained that he had found Secretary Lansing "increasingly reluctant" to follow his leadership. He might truthfully say the same thing about nearly every democrat in congress and every former Wilson follower throughout the country. to the subsconscious direction of the operators who have written them? I am speaking of the operator or operators who are strictly honest. No one, of course, denies the dishonest use of the ouija board by countless operators who have used it either to awe the credulous or to make money. "To meet the objections which may properly be urged against the use of the ordinary ouija board I have invented one which no operator can possibly control. "I have never been able to write anything intelligent upon an ordinary ouija board, but the fact that I am equally unable to write anything intelligent upon the board which I have invented is the best claim I can advance that it is proof against the effort of any person to use it dishonestly. That is to say, the inventor, has deliberately tried to write a coherent sentence upon it and has failed. "The tray or field upon which the board moves is mechanical. The board itself is nothing more than a triangular piece of steel fitted with three little castors, or rollers, just as ordinary boards are. But the tray upon which it moves is fitted all around its circumference, with a series of pegs, between each two of which is a blank typewriter key. As the ouija board under the hands of the operator travels about the tray one or another of its three angles will from time to time poke its point between some pair of legs and strike a key. The key, connected by a lever to a letter or numeral beneath the tray, impresses the letter or numeral upon a typewriter ribbon, which is also invisible. Finally there is withdrawn from the machine a paper on which is noted every letter or number struck by any angle of the ouija board at any time. "If there is anything in the theory of those who believe in the ouija writing, the paper then drawn out should bear coherent words or sentences. Now bear in mind that the tray on which the board moves is round and that all the keys and posts upon its circumference are perfectly plain faced and similar to one another in appearance. Set any operator before it, turn the..." are doing nothing more popular than their efforts to stop the useless expenditures. President Wilson, when he emerged from retirement and blew up his state department, complained that he had found Secretary Lansing "increasingly reluctant" to follow his leadership. He might truthfully say the same thing about nearly every democrat in congress and every former Wilson follower throughout the country. Incessantly Mr. Wilson gets tangled up in his wings. And just as regularly he doesn't seem to know it and flutters around with a lot of wasted motion and no small expenditure of fine language in order to achieve no greater feat than that of making it known to a weary world that he is where he was and expects there to remain. OUIJA BOARD'S RIVAL From the Sun and New York Herald: To the end that cold steel may determine whether the dear old ouija board is the medium of spirit communication which its protagonists proclaim it to be or, on the contrary, the medium by which they are able to deceive the credulous—including themselves—into the belief that the writings of the ouija board are indeed spirit writings, Sunker Abaji Bisey, a Hindu scientist, claims that he has invented an ouija board which cannot lie. The device can talk nonsense Bisey explains, but it cannot lie. "The operator of the ordinary ouija board," Bisey says, "is supposed to be controlled by spirit power, but who shall say that some of the convincing writings which have been procured by the use of the instrument are not due "I have seen and heard things in India which would stagger the belief of the average Occidental, but I have never been able to get any satisfactory result with the old fashioned ouija boards—nor with my own. I preserve an open mind upon the subject of spirit communications. But I say this: 'If any spirit has anything to say to me and will communicate it through the device which I have just invented, then indeed I will believe that he is the spirit which he pretends to be, for the thing is so constructed that while it may write the most arrant nonsense it cannot possibly lend itself to deceit.'" Harold Goodale of Anaheim was elected on the house committee of Polling hall, the men's dormitory at Oregon Agricultural college by a popular vote held at the hall. Goodale was elected one of a committee of five whose duties are to look after the general welfare of the students in the dormitory. He is a junior in the agricultural course.

STRING QUINTET at Chautauqua ist and Composer Brings His Splendid Company for Two Concerts queese violinist, director and composer, assisted by his string quintet, will make able one to all music lovers. Pereira was formerly court violinist to the King name in the European musical world. His company will present programs of his own composition, consisting of a prelude in the afternoon and a full concert New York's famous coloratura soprano, will appear as soloist at the evening retained in Chautauqua this year in response to a general demand from Chaudread plague known as the "chestnut bark disease," or chestnut blight. This disease has killed the native forest trees of the east in a wholesale manner, while the bearing trees have been reduced to so small a number that the over 4 quarts of freshly popped corn, stirring till each kernel is well coated, when it can be molded into balls or into any desired form. Darker balls may be made by using New Orleans molasses and lighter colored ones by the use of maple syrup. Any good syrup or molasses can be used. SUNKIST WEEK Sunkist orange week is rolling morrily on across the New England, Middle Atlantic and Middle Eastern States, leaving a trail of empty fruit cars and filled cash tills in its wake. The inclement weather which hampered the citrus shipments early this year has passed in most sections, and reports to the California Fruit Growers exchange indicate a free movement of cars across the continent and increased sales in the markets. As the trade is aware, Orange week is simply the former Orange day applied to one city at a time and stretched into a whole week.

This disease has killed the native forest trees of the east in a wholesale manner, while the bearing trees have been reduced to so small a number that the supply of chestnuts is now totally inadequate to meet the demand. This disease must not be allowed to enter California! Pecan growing in California has not progressed as far experimentally as chestnut growing, yet there are a few trees being planted each year and there is every hope for successful culture of this nut. In an article published in Vol. 7, No. 6, of the Monthly Bulletin, state commission of horticulture, in June, 1918, Hugh Knight of the citrus experiment station at Riverside gave some interesting facts regarding the pecan. He recommended for planting in Southern California the following varieties: Burkett, Halbert, Oliver, Sansabar and Texas Prolific. As to the time that trees come into bearing Mr. Knight says: "Contrary to the generally accepted opinion, the budded pecan is quite precocious. Some varieties, notably the Halbert, have been known to produce nuts the first year after transplanting. With ordinary care an orchard should bring in returns the fourth year after planting." In regard to its hardiness the same writer states: "In the matter of standing adverse climatic conditions the pecan would seem to be even harder than the English walnut, both as to heat and cold." At present the industry is confined chiefly to the southeastern states and well managed orchards are said to be exceedingly profitable.

Each bidder proposal a set by a respondent the order of an amateur cent of the city as a guaranty enter into this CALIFORNIA CHESTNUTS AND PECANS Almonds and walnuts thus far represent almost the total production of nuts in California. That they will not always hold this honor, however, is the belief of those who have investigated the possibilities for growing both chestnuts and pecans in certain parts of the state. There are two things in particular that point toward success in growing the chestnut. In the first place, the soil and climatic conditions in certain section seem to be very favorable. Splendid trees of both European Asiatic sorts may be seen in some of the foothill counties of the Sierras. The writer has been impressed with the splendid growth and production of trees in Butte, Nevada, Placer and El Dorado counties. On the property of the California Nursery company at Niles, Alameda county, a fine test plot of a number of different varieties has been bearing good crops for several years. The commercial success of this nut has fully demonstrated by this orchard. The second thing that favors the establishment of a chestnut industry in California on a large commercial scale is the set-back that the industry has received in the east because of the buttered and salted pop corn is delicious in itself, but for a change try one of the following recipes for pop corn confections.
