RELIABLE ooMMras1oN MEN,.
G. Il. a., Of ,Carbondalo, Ill, wallts a List Of
reliable commission. mon IN tho Northwost in
growing, aud wants to ship ILLS fruit to different
points,, lie alao wants to know which is the
bnst frnit-lryer.
Az this Ia not an iao1atcd oasoo, must state
thSt, IN tho constant chnnges. Of dealers III our
posted. Asa general thing; it Is better to ship
to Chicago, Springfield, Dubuque. OF other large
distributing point. than to SLIP to tho villages.

fruit-growera who ahip to Chicago divide.
shipment hotween two or moro houses but this
:is also q bad practice. For some .yoarn past,
have better returns, than thoso who slip In a.
sort OF miscellaneous manner,
l. DRYING or FRUIT.
Tho Alden dryer, which is' closed hot.air
tube, about 80 feat high and some 4foot square;
in which tho fruit Ia carried from bottom to ton
produces the best RESULTS, but ia too expensive,
aud on too large scale, for ono frutt-growcr.
Small hot-air dryers and oyons arc also used
Much will depend on tho quality Of fruit md
Muscatiue, lows, has; just put up ono Of these
tubular fruit-tryers, at a cost Of $1,000.
and ,intenda to purchase fruit and vego-
tables. He will then become q ulanufac-

best plan. At first there may be somo dispoBi-
