An English order for York County Ap-
pies.

80 A year ago last winter. l.. J. Strout
while barrelling apples. sold to parties
TO be shipped to parts unknown to
him, conceived the novel idea of as
certaining their destination by writ
ing letter aud enclosing therein money
TO pay the postage on a return letter, and
depositing the same in one of the barrels
OF apples, kindly asking the purchaser of
that barrel to write him the date of the
opening OF the same, name and residence
OF the purchaser, the price paid. the con-
dition OF the apples when opened. etc. In
about three months from the time of bar
relling the apples, Mr.. S. received letter
from n merchant in London. England,
saving one of his customers found the let
ter and passed IL to him, andbv him il was
very neatly answered. giving all the de-
sired Information in regard to the apples.
etc. Last winter Mr.. S. received letter
from the same merchant in relation to fill
ing an order for Maine apples, but the
qualify and scarceness of the fruit last year
prevented his filing the order satisfactory
~ to himself This week Mr.. 5. received
another order by cable for several hundred
barrels as samples from the same parties.
As Mr.. Strout will undoubtedly fill the or
der abe English gentleman will no doubt
he surprised at the size and quality of the
fruit. which is this year probably third
larger than two years ago.-T0rb County
