At the test of smudging appa ratus at Grand Junction last week, the Bryan-Wiliiams orchard stove was put in the test alongside several other types. The Grand Junction News in reporting the test managed to print a very hard knock on the Paonia device We are not very well acquainted with the actual working of the device but from our people who were there wc learn that the Bryan- Williams heater was fired al the same time as the others, say at about eight o'clock and weic left at 11:30, the time the test was discontinued. They were loaded with a small amount of kindling wet with a few spoonsful of oil and about three pounds of coal in each. The News says that a half gallon of oil was used in each. As the stove is not an oil heater and has a perforated bottom, the statement shows how very super ficially the News reporter ex amined the device. He may have furnished a more accurate account of the others but if his report was no truer of them than of this then his account may he passed over as totally unreliable. Again he said that the pots were all dead at 11 p. m., while the truth is that out of 48 fired 35 contained live fire in the morning at seven o'clock. The Bryan-Williams pot may not be valuable in spile ot the opinion held by many of our growers but it is far more reli able a heater than the Junction News is purveyor of in formation. and that is a cinch.

The National Democratic Con gressional Campaign Committee has begun active operations at its headquarters at Washington, D. C. In addition to its regular work, it is now preparing a Campaign hand book which it hopes to have ready for distribution by July I—- two or three n onths earlier than heretofore. The Committee is charged with the duty of assisting, in every way possible, the election of a Democratic Congress. We wish the active co operation of every voter in the United States who believes, with us, that the election of a Democratic Congress would greatly benefit the country. We must rely upon the people to sus tain our work by giving informa tion as to local conditions, and suggestions tor our guidance. Each individual can at least aid us by making a contribution. Will he not do so and interest others in helping us, too?
