Meteors Rain on Sun, Temporarily Increase Radiation Surface, Says Astronomer. VALLRJO, .Cal., July 8.—The extraordinary hot summer being felt all over the world is due to an unusual downpour ot meteors upon the sun, by which the radiation and effective surface temperature of the sun is temporarily increased, Professor T. J. J, See, government astronomer at the Mare Island navy yard, today said his researches had !ed him to conclude. Since a mass of meteoric matter greater than our moon is falling into the sun every century, he said, "it* is very improbable that the .downpour proceeds at a uniform rate. If it comes down in gusts under the action of the chief planets, Jupiter and Saturn, which are now near conjunction and are seen togeiher In our evening sky, then we should have sudden increases in sun's radiation Just such as we now witness all over the world. "This is a sufficient explanation of Ihe unpreecdently hot summer." WORDS FAIL BISHOP. LONDON, Out..

'I have beep prcaeiiing the grading up of our fruit' for tlie last seven years, and It .gladdened by heart lo read the straight talk from Manager W. S. King pf the Hudson's Bay company ' here, on the way ' Kootenay ranch products shou'd be put on the market. He did not say one word too many. I could supply a hundred instances of the kind he gave of where the producer ruined his chances-of a good price by making an . Inferior pack. Every dealer knows these facts—they are commonplace. It is only the producers that will not comprehend the standards," E. Norman, secretary and manager of the Kootenay Fruit Growers' union, made this.statement yesterday afternoon when asked 'for comment on Mr. King's interview, which has aroused keen Interest and has evoked both angry comment and warm commendation from various sections of thf! West Kootenay, the warm commendations Immensely predominating, Producers' Blind Side. . 'The individual rancher Is sincere enough," continued Mr. Norman. "He really believes his fruit is top notch, and that he has turned out a very creditable pack that can demand the best price. Unless he actually sees his pack ln comparison witli what 1,1ns market calls first class there Is great difficulty in making him helievo his output is below standard. ' "Thc average rancher Insists, for Instance, that thc law allows him to have 10 per cent of apples that are not No. ls 1n a box of No. Is. But the statute distinctly specifies that all the fruit In a box marked 'No. 1* must!

The 10 'pet " cent limit is designed to cqver hlem- ishes that the packer did not discover while he was attempting to pack a peiCect box, II' a man deliberately puts in 10 per cent of blemished fruit there will he a whole lot' more that he will put in unknowingly, anuSthe intention of the statute will not be" met. Tliere is also variation In" size' and in color, some boxes arc packed loose!y, and there are many other ways ■ of'offending against tlie standard. "A well faced box of No. Is will bring a top price where another hox of possibly as good fruit but jumblo pack will not move at all. "To turn to cherries, you can see it lu the grocery windows every day. The punnets of cherries that have the stems cut and turned under, and-the fruit nicely faced on top, will he snapped up-by -the public at a higher price than is asked for equally as good fruit that is tossed in anyway, while the punnets witli tlie tossed Th fruit se'l with difficulty, even at the lower price. * Public; Indorses These Stiintliirds. ■"It is not the dealer who Is setting these standards—it is the public. The sooner the producers stop blaming the dealer for their troubles and accept the fact that the market demands cer-, tain standards the sooner wilt they get the returns that they want. "Of course there are individual producers who have learned their lesson, -and make it an absolute rule to turn ou the hest output possible. These men year after year get the top prices for whatever products they are marketing ou tills system. I am not ma-, king these remarks for their benefit. -If every one'Would folluw their Jead Kootenay -fruit, would stand higher than it does, and our ranchers would be bettor off. "Take the man -who ships what he believes to he a car of No. 1 apples, but has been lax in letting in a certain percentage of inferior fruit; Even If the car as a whole is No. 1..K. the sample boxes that the prairie dealer picks at random and empties are a littlo beloty standard In nine cases out of 10 the dealer will feel a prejudice against the Car and will, in many cases, grade the car possibly below Its actual merits. If he should be a dishonest dealer these poor, boxes give him the excuse he wants for employing sharp practice on the shipper, f - Would Pay to Throw Away Inferior FnUt. "IL would actually pay a. producer to thpbw away inferior fruit, even If it is just a little Inferior, rather than let it go Into a box of good (fruit and lower the grade. "The time will come here, as it has come in every country or section where a general marketing organization is in charge of tlie crop disposal, when inspectors of the organization will set tho standards iu the orchards and supervise the packing so- that there will be iio'tniestlou of grade. "J have said all this before, and* have said it often. I have sent out pleas for better grading in all our circulars L'or years.'

Tlie author of the measure, Deputy Paul Benazet, called attention t the large and expensive aviation per sonnel of the government "which consumes but does not produce." Strongly advocating the creation of a great, protective aerial force, M Benazet, urged that the government create a corporation to operate com mercially. transporting passengers and freight: establishing air postal routes, thus training aviators, developing aviation, cementing relations with the colonics and meantime keeping the fleet ready*, for immedjate conversion to war purposes.

Ir refutable evidence of this may be seen over thousands of square, miles . in both Canada and the United States. In all of our forest provinces other than the Prairie Prov inces, adequate protection will involve the expenditure of only a reasonable fraction of the Crown timber revenue. There has in the past been too strong a tendency to divert an unduly large proportion, of the forest revenue to* purposes of general" governmental administration,- leaving the forest to be regarded as a mine to be exploited, rather than as a crop to be reproduced.

Washington] d. c July, \-.~-About July 9 a large high wind cooler than usual will cover most of the contln- iMit, particularly center,ng along meridian 90. This condition will slowly work eastward ami behind it rising temperatures will slowly take lis place. Near July 15 a warm wavo will have come out of the extreme northwest and at that date will be central along that base line which extends north and south and ,s known as merldan 90.

During the passage of these high and low temperature waves ra.n- falt Is expected to be largely extended and considerable damage from them la expected In northern harvests, It is now full time for farmer.s to determine about sowing winter grain, prp- gress has been made m such forecasts during past year and I will be able to give better than guessing advice about sowing winter grain. Fall rains and the 1922 crop season up to end of Sept. 1922 will determine the advice about winter grain for next year. Again 1 have tested tbe cause for varying r»ins for this continent and the results are positive that these, variations are controlled by the location of the place from whence comes the moisture. I can now say that above the 10-year average of winter grain will be produced on this continent for 1922 and that two-thlrde of the winter grain sections will produce above the average of wint*r grain crops. I have no doubt about this. I have thooughly tesed the foundation of these foecasls and have uo doubt about them. CONVICTS ON THEIR HONOR.

Sentiment Runs High . From the standpoint of the relations between the United States nnd Canada, the pending bill will have un- usual interest.' The high tariff ele ments in Congress would nt.ise a high .barrier against Gapadn. just as against other countries. Qn the other hand,' the feeling in Congress is morc pro nouneed th^n ever before that trade; between the two- countries ought be promoted nflmnl'h as possible and thnt trade barriers should be erected jiist as Utile as possible. This sentiment w(ll he much .heard In the de1--* bate and In the consideration nf par' ticuiar schedules. It looks now as if Cnnndian lumber would be, udnutted free. It is doubt- E.ull if. plther hp\ise on a test votji .would stand for a tariff on lum- ber. The prnpos|T,lnn, of the House hill tn make it ttptinViaf with the President whether to impose a duty on liimber will pnopunter piipositinn but even If -it Is retained It is not expected that the. President will impose a duty. Thc wheat, duty of 25 cents per bushel In the new hill Is one of thc features so far as concerns importations from Canadft. The. present emergency tariff is 25 cents. This is lopk- ed on by some Republicans and most Democrats as being ton high. Efforts w^ll dpubtless * be made on the floor to reduce the rate,' but,!it Is doubtful If they succeed, fo.r the agricultural 'group will, not consent to any lowering of it.,■ High Rates Not Considered The present reign of high railroad, freight , rates in the . United States has. a distinct bearing on the tariff and ..imporlntio.ns. In many cases, freight rates are. so high that importations ciinnot he successful except in the case of Imports sold in cities close to the, border. United States manufacturers and producers have not only the protection nt' hirth tariffs, according to the new bill, but the protection of extremely high railroad rates.
