HUHHICANE 3ELL8 APPLES
Olio would not ordinarily look for a
hurricane to promote tho sale of upplow.
Kill tho recent wind and flood
devastation in Now Fnglund produced
that very roMull.
Kxcopt for tho comparatively small
part oi liic crop harvested hoforo thu
storm, the Now Fughuid applo crop
wiih ou the ground after (lie iiurrlcane
passed four to llvo million boxes.
Many of thinto apples were damaged
when blown from trees, hence normal
storage and marketing was impossible
thoy had to lie consumed within il
short time, or be a total loss
As soon as the situation became
known, without red tape or delay, tho
First National Stores, of Huston, with
retail outlets throughout New Knglaud,
began publicizing the situation
and selling those apples at once. It
said to the public:
This emergency calls for your help.
Use apples liberally. Fat two apples
a day Haked in pies, in Huuces and
in countless other ways, use apples;
turn this emergency to your huulth
and advantage. Your neighbor applo
grower isn't asking for pity. He's
got apples to sell Huy them!
Here Is a striking illustration of tho
manner in which modern merchandising
and sales methods provide tho
way to turn the tables on what would
otherwise have been disaster for this
farm crop. Following the load, other
distributors joined in the program.
?' It is probably impossible, to esti""
' mate the trTnnPhdous value of such
service io the applo growers of New
Fuglsnd. hut it is typical of servJV? .
rendered by private enterprises at its
best.

THE CURE-ALL DOSE APPARENTLY
KILLED THE PATIENT
fiat rock is lore all to peaces by the
new wedges and hours bill, and biz-'
nesH tias hit a new low for the new j
drug stoar wh"ii the bill took effect,
,'iiiil h.13 turned both or his ctrrks oft'.:
ilu-y bad ben 11 working 72 hours, and,
a drug stoar can't be run on less. he|
do not think however that the lawj

Iri'VS s.
vore corry >pondeiit. lion mike
lark, rfd, believes the labor hill hits
him. so he has turned off his delivery
hoy and meat cutter, and got his wife
and 2 darters and 2 sons to take their
places a man's familey is exempt
from both the wedges and the hours
uid the minimum pay. when they
work reggular time, they get nothing,
md when they don't work at all, they
get nothing Just the same.
..the cash %nd carry chain grocery
was not hurt by the new act. It sellB
for cash and works only 56 hours
within 56 hours everboddy spends all
they have, hence?the ctialn Is ok.
*fter all cash has benn spent, the
folks trade on creddlck at the other
(toars, therefoar they can't close under
80 iiouca, h? folks who iitvie yOOT
:reddick slip in late at night and buy
their needs for breakfast. you will
lee that our people are verry loyal to
Lheir merchants: the chain stoars
get the (fash and the independent
itoars get all of the creddlck blznesa.

on, thanks to the new law.
..this new wedge and hours bill will
be a big thing for the w p a. they
won't have to bother with changing
their schedule: they started off under
the new law 3 years befoar It was
thought of by jhon lewis and homer

thing big blzness has to worry about |
now is as followers- the wedge amd

Telegrapher Who Flashed Word of
Cluster Disaster Dies in Montana
Missoula, Montana.?-John M. Carnahan,
telegraph operator who gave
the world the story of the Custer
massacre, died here October 24. He
was eighty-nine years old. In 1876
Carnahan flashed the news of the
massacre on Little Big Horn to the
nation. He had been handling General
Custer's official messages to President
Grant.
Mr Carnahan was a friend of many
members of the Bismarck garrison,
which was included in the expedition
led by General George Armstrong
Custer against the Sioux Indians in
June. 1876. The telegraph operator
and the post surgeon rode out with
the expedition, accompanied by the
Seventh cavalry 12 miles, and returned
with the last dispatch sent by General
Custer. It was to President Grant
and told of plans for the expedition.
On'the night of July 5 the steamship
Far West tied up at Bismarck,
bringing back the wounded from the
command of Major Marcus Albert
Reno and the official dispatches relating
the annihilation of Custer and
tiis men Summoned from his bed,
Mr. Carnahan found on his desk a
carpetbag full of official reports of
the light and the results. Quickly sizing
up the job, he flashed word Last
of the massacre, then transmitted the
official story to the War Department
at Washington. He tapped the key
for 21 hours, slept three hours and
returned to the key.
Despite the demand of Eastern
newspapers for details, he could not
answer them until the official work
was completed. Then he sent all he
:ould find out to newspapers in New
York, Chicago and St. Paul. In two
shifts he sent out 80,000 words, and
the receipts of his office for the two
Jays were $3,000. When the correspondents
arrived one from New York
filed 22,000 words, and Mr. Carnahan
sent for 12 hours, the tolls being
11,320. The correspondent gave Carnahan
$50 for his extra work, and the
operator kept the bill as a memento
of the time.
