Growers Warned
by Fruit Expert
Owners Urged to Spray Apple
Trees Despite Rumor of
“Poor Year.*’
Des Moines, April 4.—The pessi
mistic talk concerning what a "poor
apple year" 3 923 is going to be should
not scare orchardtsts into neg'lecting
their trees, according to R. S. Her
rick, secretary of the State Horticul
tural society.
Regardless of all rumors, the far
sighted apple grower will spray and
care for his trees the same this year
as he clid last, and he. will undoubt
edly be rewarded for his efforts, ac
cording to Mr. Herrick.
Not a Poor Crop.
Indications are that 3923 will fall
l'ehlhd the production of 1922, which
was unusually large, Mr. Herrick
says, but this does not necessarily
mean a poor crop. A light bloom is
expected, but if properly cared for a
light bloom means from a fair to good
crop. If one-fiftieth of the bloom on
a single tree were to develop Intj
fruit it would mean a good crop, Mi
Herrick declares.
Many growers think that because
there were no worms last year there
will be none this year, and for that
reason spraying will he ^tnecessary.
This idea is wrong, according to the
state horticultural expert, who de
clares that it is harder to have a high
per cent of clean fruit in a light year
than in a heavy year. The worm
menace will be worse this year than
last, in his opinion.
Need Spraying.
All apple trees this year will need
plenty of spraying. Tho first two
sprays come early, one just before the
bloom and one just after. Following
these, the spray should lie applied at
intervals on the fruit until it is ready
for marketing. If this program is
carried out rigidly no applo grower
need worry about wormy fruit, ac
cording to the state expert.
Although some growers received
good prices for their fruit last year,
many did not, and these are now
neglecting the 1923 possibilities.
Mr. Herrick declares that there will
be fewer apples In the country this
year, and therefore prices for the ,
product will bo higher.

Wife of Chicago Mayor-Elect
Reveals a Pretty Romance
J——
William E. Dever.
Cnirersal Service Staff Correspondent.
Chicago, April 3.—A pretty romance
in the life of William K. Dever, who
was elected mayor of Chicago today,
was revealed by his wife tonight. It
began with a flirtation back in New
Jersey nearly 40 years ago.
Chicago knows Judge Dever pretty
well—of his climb from n leather
worker to a lawyer, then a judge and
alderman and (finally, mayor-elect.
But It didn't know tin love story
until Mrs. Dever revealed it while
the election returns were still com
ing in, piling up a tremendous ma
jority that attests the o^ppm in
which Chicago holds her husband.
"I lived in Oceana, N. J., to which
city my father hod moved from Troy,
N. Y., when I was 18,” she said.
"Mr. Dever, then a young working
man. came to call on my father cn
business and we caught a glimpse
of each through a window. We
smiled—we flirted, I must confess.
Anxious for {education.
"A few days later Mr. Dever came
to call in tow of a man who was
acquainted with both my sister and
me, and in two months we were en
gaged and a year later we were mar
ried and went to Boston."
L.ife wasn't all pleasure in the years
that followed. ' It was hard in those
days to make both ends meet and the
young workingman who was destined
to become mayor of the great middle
west metropolis wanted an educa
tion.
"Mr. Dever's brother and I pur
chased some books for him for a
birthday present, the first birthday
after our marriage in 1885,” she
went on. "I selected them and 1 re
member the titles. They were Oliver

Jewish Communists

Moscow, April 4.—A clash occurred
at the anti-Passover carnival of the
Jewish communists at Krementshug
when a number of more pious Jews
attacked the communist burlesque of i
the Passover festival. A free-for-all >
followed.
The anti religious demonstration* ;
were held throughout Whito Itussia
and the I'kraine. Besides the carni
vals the Jewish communists appealed
to tho other Jews to work on the
holidays and devote the wages of the
first day to the labor movement and
those of the second day to the red |
army. ,
Before Baby Comes
THERE are thou Band* of expectant mother* who undergo
much useless suffering for months before, as well as at ths
momont when delivery occurs. Those months ot suffering, with'
nsrves and vital organa weakened, leave their effect upon ths
child. An eminent physician found tho way to atop much of this
unnecessary suffering—the same easy way which thousands of
mothers have used for three generation*.
Mrs. Waller 8. Hadley. Bridgeport. Ind., says: "Refers gay little hoy

he had to practice to afford it."
.Just Wanted Work.
Mr. Dever didn't come to Chicago
seeking the’ highest, office the city
had to give. He just wanted work.
"Mr. Dever was a leather worker,
and soon after we were married, lie
was told there was work in Chicago,"
Mrs. Dever said. "So we came he^e
and practically the only thing we had
besides our—wearing apparel was a
box of books—about 150 of them, in
cheap binding, but Mr. Dever treas
ured them so much.”
An advertisement of a law school,
where one might study after work,
attracted Mrs. Dever's attention one
day. she said, and site culled her hus
band's attention to it.
"That was the beginning of my
husband's law career,” she said. "He
was graduated front the law college
in 1890 and then came those terrible
years during which lie waited for
cases. I used to wonder if the time
would ever come when people would
retain young lawyers. But finally,
all at once, several big cases came
and then things began to be easier for
us.”
Happiest M ben Fishing.
Mrs. Dever is tf motherly woman,
with snow-whits/hair, but her com
plexion has not lost its youthful
freshness. She likes the outdoors.
“I love to swim, to walk and to
fish." she said. The happiest tim- s
Judge Dever and I spend are on our
summer fishing trips. I love to Is
outdoors, and the clothes I like mo t
to wear and that 1 feel at rny best it
are sport clothes."
The mayor-elect and Mrs. De\t.r
have two sons.

CrrHitmcn'i Official Tells of
Rich Harvest Reaped hv
Promoters.
Chicago. April 4—Securities sales
men have reaped a rich harvest of
at least $200,000,000 in Iowa, ,T H.
Tregoe, executive manager of the
National Association of Credit Men.
declared In a statement today after
a trip through the middle west. That
state, he charged, was dotted with
stock selling enterprises.
After reviewing the prosperous
years of 1016 to 1920 and the after
math of speculation, when some
farm land prices leaped to $6n0 an
acre, only to tumble. Tregoe said he
found tenant farming in*Towa on the
increjtgp and on the whole consid
erable financial improvement over
the spring of 1922, but that the Iowa
farmer is not yet out of debt.
"It is very clear," he saW, “that
tho buying power of the faVmer is
not In proportion to the prices of
commodities that he would like to
buy. The supply stores are selling
more necessities, with goods sold on
a small margin."
Tregoe said similar conditions had
been found in Nebraska, although in
that state many small hanks had suf
fered failure.
In view of the collapse of farm
prosperity’ after 1919, Tregoe said it
was not difficult to understand that
the fanners felt nervous and that ag
ricultural blocs in congress had been
formed. Systematic farm work, rea
sonable thrift, encouragement of
freehold farming, looking to one's
self rather than to congress, would
help in a renewed prosperity for the
farm lands, he concluded.
,J. II. Tregoe spoke before Omaha
and Nebraska credit men in Omalia
several weeks ago.

Fraud Laid to
House of David
Attorney General of Michigan
Alleges Deceit and
Immorality.
Hanging, Mich.. April 4—Formal
charge* that the Israelite House of
David colony at Benton Harbor Is
based upon a "foundation of deceit,
immorality and fraud," were filed in
the Ingham county (Lansing) circuit
court today by Andrew B. Dough
erty, attorney general for Michigan.
The charges were filed in support
of quo warranto proceedings begun
in the court yesterday to compel the
leaders of the cult to show cause why
the organization should be disbanded.
Today's charges allege that the col
ony has set itself up as a "kingdom”
with ’Benjamin Purnell, head of the
order, as "king.” The allegation also
is made that the association, which
filed articles of incorporation in 1905
as a religious and ecclesiastic cor
poration, has usurped its privilege as
an organization of this kind by fraud.
The attorney general alleges the
colony is not and never has been ,a
corporation for religious and ecclesi
astical purposes, but on the contrary
has for its object the enrichment of
Benjamin Purnell and Jiis elevation
to the rank of temporal king and the
establishment within the state of a
kingdom, whose king and subject* are
or eventually would be free and Inde
pendent of the civil power of the
atate.
