SPAIN NEEDS MONEY.
Large Sums Advanced by a Paris
Bank.

PARIS, Nov. 21.-The Banque de
Paris and the Pays Bas has advanced
the Spanish government 25,1U0,Og
francs, making in all 100000 francs
advanced by the bank. The bank made
a condition of the loan that the cortes
should meet at the beginning of Decem-
Der and authorize the government to
raise large loan, part Of which shall
beiused TO pay the bank. The Spanish
opposition. proposes to compel a full
discussion of the financial embarrass-
ment. Should the passage of the loan
be delayed,it may end i'll the suspension
of the payment of interest on the ma
tional debt, the Rothschilds having
already declined to advance more mon
ey. Lit is estimated that 4.000,000,0 ,0t0
francsi Spanish securities areheld in
France. Spanish bankruptcy,z coming
on top of the collapse of the Panama
Canal company, would be heavy blow
to France.

DUBLIN, Nov. 21.-The Blackwater
river in County Cork has oyerflowed
its banks, and stretches of country are
inundated for miles. In the town of
Fermoy, which is on the banks of the
river, there is almost utter darkness to-
night, owing to the fact that the gas

of the Inhabitants OF the flooded region
are removing their household goods to
higher ground. There have been heavy,
prolonged rains in the county, and eX-
tensive tracts in the SloWlands are
flooded.
A number of mountain watercourses
are swollen into veritable torrents, and
one of these rushing streams has worked
fatal havoc. A house at the base of
Claddough mountain has been swept
away and most of its occupants were
drowned. Numbers of other houses are
inundated and numerous sheep have
been drowned.

Drunkard.

PARIS, Nov. PA horrible tragedy
is reported from Mulhausen, Alsace. A
woman named Kern, the wife OF a bas-
ketmaker, Theobald Kern, had been
driven to desperation by the miscon-
duet of her husband. He had become

owing to the tumult. When,
finally, he was able to make his voice
heard, he said he would not reply TO M:
de Lahaeye's allegations. as he believe
that the charges arose from violent
political passions. The government,
however, could not refuse the demand
for an inquiry. 1t was in the interest or
all that light should be thrown upon the
matter. The government had nothing
to hide.
Appointed Committee. a.
The chamber agreed that commlt,
tee of thlrty-three should be appointed
with extraordinary powers to examine
all the charges. NJ. Delaunay urged
that the most searching investigation
be made. as the responsibility OF
the government, the press, the ieafs-.
ing financierS and contractors were
involved. M. Casagnac called upon M.
Delaunay to tell what he knew. NJ.
BosSy-D AnglaS interposed that NJ. Cas-
agnac's own name had been mentioned
in the lo6beS. NJ CaSagnac Indignantly
glas remarked that he had not accused
him. He only wished to show how
abominable were NJ. Delahaye's charges.

of the Credit Lyonnais, aud M. HeY

statement that their companies had
loaned money to the Panama
Canal company at s. per cent interest.
The chamber then, by vote of 81 TO

with 1-year-old trees, though many
2-year-olds are planted. Great care is
taken to place the roots OF the young
trees straight and give them plenty of
mellow earth to expand in. One-year-
old trees are simply well-developed
switches, but the 2-year-olds are

nursery to make the trees head near

ing considered entirely too ornamental
to be useful. This is accomplished by
cutting off the tops of the infant trees
and stripping the buds from the stem to
the required height. The trees are
usually placed thirty feet apart each
way,which allows forty eight to the acre

feet, thus securing stand of fifty to the
acre. When the trees attain maturity
the space between them is narrowed
down to foot-path. The orchards are
usually kept in corn until the trees are
years old, as this affords them the
necessary cultivation, and the partial
shade thus secured is thought to be
beneficial to the young trees. They be-
gin to bear when about years old, and
at the age Of 10 are producing fair
crop. They do not reach the best bear
ing period until the age of 10. From

second. 1t is safe to predict that the
orchard area of these four counties will
double during the next three years. The
orchards range in size from 10 to $50
acres. A man with less than ten acres
is not considered worthy the note of the
apple statistician. He does not appear
in the figures Orchards of so, 80 and
100 acres are common. Nearly every
business and professional man in the
four apple counties has contracted the
orchard fever, and cast an anchor to
windward in the shape OF a few hundred
growing trees. Perhaps four-fifths of
the apple orchards have not reached the
bearing age, and of the remainder only
small portion are in their prime. Yet
it is estimated that three years ago,
which was very favorable crop year,
more than 100000 was paid out in Clay
County alone for apples. Two years
ago the crop was not so good, yet some
$500, 900 was poured into the pockets of
Clay County apple growers. Last year,
with still less favorable crop, it reached
the snug sum of a quarter million dol
lars. When all the trees now planted
in the apple belt are bearing, and good
crop finds fair prices, Northern Illinois
will probably take reef in its patr.cian
nose when it refers TO Egypt.
Handling the Trait.

trees, in the month Of July, for 1926 per
acre, the purchaser assuming not only
all risks but the expense Of picking and
barreling the fruit. Two years ago he
sold his crop for $3.50 an acre.
Four crops gathered from a young
orchard have netted him be-
tween $500 and $500 per acre
in the aggregate. Many others
who were among tie first to plant
orchards have done equally as we'll. 1t
was such remarkable exhibits as the
above that converted the incredulous
and set everybody who could command
the wherewith to purchase a piece of
ground and stock of trees to planting
orchards. Planting on a large scale be-
gan eight years ago, but the apple
craze" did not assume an epidemic form
until about 1889, consequently most
are too young to bear. The magnificent
returns paid by those that have reached
maturity is constant stimulus, and the
number of trees put out each succeed
ing year increases in ratio of geomet-
rical progression. The desire to secure
orchards now amounts to almost
mania, and may not inaptly be COM
pared to the gold fever that once ragged
with such virulence in California. 1t is
estimated that within The past three
years 100000 apple trees have been
put out in Marion, Clay, Richland and
Wayne Counties, and the work may be
said to have just begun. Many farmers
will plant from ten to 200 acres more
next fall. The local nurseries cannot
supply the demand for trees in their i'm
mediate nelghborhood, and trees are
shipped in by the carload from Missouri
and Indiana nurseries.
A County of Orchards.
Clay County already has the largest
orchard area of any county in the
Union. Twenty eight thousand acres
and nearly 1900, 600 trees are the fig
ures. The other counties in the apple
belt are making noble struggle to keep
abreast of the procession, and are not
tagging far behind. Wayne is good

the granary of half world. The soil
was generally good, but it was not equal
to that of the Nile valley. Peaches and
strawberries continued to be it's prize
product. For the growth OF these 1T had
no superior and scarce an equal be-
tween Cape Cod and California. But
every body could not grow straw berries
and peaches for the Northern market.
Even the Chicago appetite. like the
Chicago foot, hath it's limits; besides,
those growers who had not a direct out
let to the land of late springs and early
autumns found berries and peaches I'M
profitable, and began casting about Tor
new cuts to fortune. Some sections
found a fair profit iii cereals, but these
were advantages enjoyed in common
with most sections OF the Union.
An AppIe-Raising Mania.
Some years ago it occurred to few
restless spirits that opulence might be
found in apple orchards, and they be-
gan to experiment Most people were
incredulous. Everybody knew that
Egypt would grow good apples, but few
supposed it possessed peculiar advan-
tapes for that industry. In some sec
tions the experiments did not prove very
successful. but in the counties OF
Marion. Clay, Wayne and Richland
GOOD results were obtained and orchard
nIantinc on an extensive scale soon fol-

darkness, compared to which the shad-
ows that fell upon the land of the
Pharaohs was an Italian sunset. South
ern Illinois was regarded as the Naza-
reth OF the new world, from which no
good was expected to proceed. 1t was
spsrsely settled, and land might be had
almost for the asking; it was within easy
reach of Chicago, st. Louis, and other
mighty markets; the Father of Waters
caressed it on the west, and the raging
Wabash fretted along the east, and the
sunny waters of the Ohio sparkled on
the south. Railways pierced it, and a
sky of Italian softDess smiled upon it;
it was threaded by thousand small
streams, and medicinal springs, such as
Ponce de Leon vainly sought among the
everglades and alligators of Florida,
burst from it's sunny bosom; but it lay
under the ban, and did not prosper or
progress. Home seekers hurried across
it to waste their energies upon the arid
plains of Western Kansas, or wear out
their lives in unequal battle with the
Dakota blizzard
Finally along the line Of the Illinois
Central Railway the culture Of small
fruits and berries was begun in small
way. 1t proved quite profitable, and a
new era dawned upon Egypt. Hand
some towns sprang up and flourished.
Industrious immigrants came pouring
