pion apple man who fer the last eleven
years has made his regular annual
raids over the mountains supplying
all who desire, with tho choicest Of
apples aud other seasonable fruits. We

immense fortune at his rate OF
prices but lie has recently concluded
to retire from the field and con-
fine his attention moro exclusively
to fruit raising on his home ranch stu
ated on the Costumes river, California,
gracefully allowing the mautle Of his
well-earned fame to fall upon the
shoulders Of his son, John NJ. Belcher,
who will represent him In the same
line Of business hereafter, together
with Mr.. Alexander Clarke, who has
been connected with the elder Belcher

prised Of the new arrangement by the
reception Of a box Of ripe, rich and
rosy ~Spitzenberg apples just arrived
direct from the orchard, \ sample Of
what Belcher & Clarke are now filling
their regular customers orders with.
Mr.. Belcher Is a young man, Wide
awake, and energetic like his father,
and like him, his genial, gentlemanly
qualities commend him to the favor
aud friendship OF all with whom he be-
comes acquainted. Belcher & Clarke
will continue to supply customers with
the choicest OF fruits In the season at
the lowest prices. and they have plenty
of friends to wish them success
