Spokane Washington, May 22. "Apples are certain to become the staple
product of Washington and within
few years the value of the state's crop
will amount to three times the value
of the weat output,, now placed at 40,
000,000 bushels a year, and considerably more than the annual output cf
gold from Alaska."
W. N. Granger, government irriga
tion expert and manager of the Sunnyside project, covering 90,000 acres in the Yackima valley, constructed by the United States government at a cost of $1,500,000, said this- in announcing that 750,000 acres of land will be under irrigation systems before the close of the next decade, adding: Irrigating Future. "It is my belief that the increase In irrigation of arid lands in Washington will not cease until from 2,000.000 to 3.000,000 acres are put under water. I believe, too, . that the Yakima valley will continue to lead the state in the number of acres of land under irrigation and there are reasons' to believe that at least "500,000 acres of land in the valley will be under water within the next ten years. "The. question haa been brought to the fore many times in the last 20 years as to whether apples would- not depreciate in value on account of the vast acreage devoted to them, and my answer is now, as It has always been, that the markets are rapidly increasing and prices are advancing. There is not enough land In the state of Washington to make the prices fall. "There is money in raising apples and money, will continue to be made in the business for the next 200 years at the lowest estimate, as the . demand for apples was never greater than at the present - time and this will continue for centuries."
San Francisco, Cal.,' May 22. The
United States army owes it to the United States navy that Japan, as represented by Admiral Ijichi, was not mortally offended at what appeared to the admiral to be what former President Roosevelt migjit have called "a
deliberate and premeditated snub." Incidentally, the city's guest again calls
attention to the unfortunate arrange
ment, or lack of arrangement, made at
this- port by the army for returning sa
lutes of visiting foreign war ships.
Furthermore, and also Incidentally, the
affair shows that Japan does not take
the keen interest in American military
affairs with which she has been cred
ited.
When the Japanese squadron entered
the port on its recent visit the Ameri
can flag was hoisted to the Aso's fore
and saluted with twenty-one gune. The
saluting station in this harbor formerly was on Alcatraz, and the Japanese, unaware o fthe change, made more
than a year ago. looked to the prison islnd for an acknowledgment. There
was nothing doing.
As they watched Alcatraz and listen
ed, however, far astern and around a
corner, some little old three pounders at the official saluting post at Presidio
were banging away at the Pacific
ocean. Or this demonstration the Jap
anese neither saw nor heard anythin
The West Virginia acknowledged
the Japanese gunpowder anthem to
Old Glory, and followed the twenty-one
guns with thirteen guns for Admiral
Ijichi.
When Admiral Swinburne boarded the Japanese flagship he learned that the visitors' were under the impression that the army had ignored the Japa
nese salute Knowing the unfortunate
breaks made by the army at this port
in the not very distant past, the admiral may have felt some misgiving, but if he did he gave no sign. He assured
the admiral that the salute had been returned, but .that owing to the location of the saluting battery and the haze that hung over the harbor it had escaped his attention. As far as Admiral Ijichi was concerned the incident ended there. The army's record at this port for returning salutes in what the navy would call "ship shape and Bristol fashion," is not good. An Italian cruiser called here a few years ago when the saluting post was located on Alcatraz. The visitor fired the national salute and Alcatraz replied. The first gun was fired on time. The second followed in about an hour. The first gun was fired about eleven o'clock in the morning. The twentyfirst gun was discharged a few minutes before sunset. The officer in charge of the battery explained that the eccentric intervals between guns were caused by the jamming of the shells, to remove which the post blacksmith ani his staff had to be called upon. A few months ago a Peruvian cruiser called here to return the visit of the Atlantic fleet. The Peruvian saluted as it entered the harbor. There was no response from the Presidio, but the next day, when the army learned from the newspapers of the Peruvian war ship's arrival, the salute was duly returned by the Presidio battery. All of which goes to show that the army has the best of intentions, but that it might make a better impression on foreign visitors if the official saluting battery were either replaced on Alcatraz or installed on the. hill at Fort Mason, where its acknowledgments of foreign courtesy could be seen and heard from any part of the harbor.
Little Dennis Brane Always Accompanies Father On Visits.
A DIAMOND AMONG SICK
YOUNGSTER IS ONLY NINE YEARS
OF ACE BUT HE, TAKES THE KEENEST INTEREST IN THE PASTORAL DUTIES.
Reading, Pa., May 22. Not only is Dennis ; DeWitt Brane the sparkling jewel in the home of his father, the Rev. Dr. C. I. Brane, pastor of Otter-
bein United Brethren church, of this city, but he is the gem among gems
in this congregation, a diamond
among the sick, the poor and the
aged, of this city. To the boys and
girls of . his own age with whom he
associates he is always like a newly
discovered pearl. The older persons who have known his friendship can well say, like '- Byron, "Ah, ; . happy years! Once more, who would not be
a boy?" V .
In Otterbein8 church this . nine-year-old boy is known as the associate pastor. ' "For six years he has been the closest companion' in the home, in . " the study, in the church services and in my pastoral visiting"-says his father. Dr. Brane. When his father was ill he helped to make him well;' when he was stricken with sorrow, the voice of this dear little boy soothed the father's soul, and when he had cares it was Dennis who lightened his load of
trouble:;;-'"? However, the boy's greatest work Is done when1 his father is on his trips to the homes of the poor or to the sick beds of members of the church. Dennis can always be seen beside his father on such trips, and there is no boy in Berks county today who has visited more sick persons or spoken more kind words to aged folk or who has spoken more words of encouragement to the needy than Dennis has. When he visits a sick friend he repeats the Lord's Prayer and reads the Twenty-third Psalm; and David's confidence in God's grace as read by this
little minister of the Gospel, has never failed to bring a smile of faith or gratitude to lips that were only a moment before shrouded in sorrow or pain. Master Brane was born In Lebanon on August 8, 1900. When he was a tot of three he began to accompany his father and he has been his constant companion since, except when in school, where he is one of the brightest pupils. His father says the little son has been absent only eight
een times from prayer meeting, Sun
day school and church services In five years, they being on days when he was ill or not at home.
The father's ideal and highest de
sire Is to rear Dennis to become a faithful minister of the Gospel, "the
hardest but the sweetest work to
which, in the providence of God, the children of men are called," says Dr. Brane.

Digestive Powers of the Ostrich. The observation ' related under this bead by Mr. R, J. Stordy Is curious and probably establishes a record. An ostrich one year old. which was in a bad condition and had been. Ill for a long time. died, v On examining the body llr. Stordy found la the stomach 111 brass cartridge cases and two bullets. A large number of these cartridge cases were worn down till they were no larger than peas. Four only had lost the detonator. . The others had evidently ; been swallowed more' recently. Most .of them, were compressed and twisted.. A large quantity of scraps of brass were mixed with the contents of the stomach and gixsard. air. Stordy attributes the ostrich's death not to the swallowing of the cartridge cases, but to a parasitic disease. Bacneil de Medietas Veteri-malre.

A WIRELESS PHOIIE
Experiments With the Device Now Being Made in , Colorado. PIKE'S PEAK BEING USED
Colorado Springs, Col., May 22. Experiments with the latest wireless invention, the wireless telephone, are to be conducted on Pikes Peak if conditions are found suitable. Representatives of this new enterprise were in Denver recently and expect shortly to make arrangements to equip the summit of the peak, 14,109 feet above sea level with central and relay stations. It is claimed to be possible to converse at long -distances with the wireless telephone quite as easily as by the present method, and if the Pikes Peak station is established, it will be mainly to serve as a, relay , depot for long distance conversation. All that is required to talk - by wireless is for the user to turn a dial, similar to that on the automatic system, which tunes his . instrument to the same pitch as that which he desires to talk; a vibration is caused at the receiv
ing end " which attracts the attention of the owner and conversation is held in the regular manner. It is claimed that highly 'successful tests have been made by warships and other vessels.
Cutting through snow drifes ranging in depth from 10 to 20 feet, the Pikes Peak Cog road has just run the first train of the season to the summit. Most of the heavy snow . was found above Timber line (11,000 feet) Excavations have been made for an addi-
