OUR BANNER APPLE YEAR.
Crop of Over SO.OOO,OOO Bar
rels Is Expected.

According to the National Apple
Shippers Association, the crop OF
apples this year in the United
States, Canada and Nova Scotia,
twill be the largest OF any crop in
the history of the country" While
the drought has affected the yield in
Missouri, and many apples have
dropped prematurely in New York
state and the states adjoining on
the east, the crop, it is estimated,
will exceed the record of 1896, which
was 10000, 900 barrels, by from
10. 900, 900 to 10000, 900 barrels.
This years crop in North America,
it is believed, will be from 80, 600, geo
to 100, 900, 900 barrels.
Fourteen states have bearing APP
pie trees numbering more than
z. Zoo, 900 each. The report from
these states arc favorable, and in
New England, New York and Penn
sylvania the yield is reported to be
heavy. There will be large num-
bers of apples on the Pacific coast
and in Canada and Nova Scotia also.
There is market for apples abroad
and it is said that Great Britain,
France and Germany are prepared
to take some OF the surplus. The
quality is good, according to the re-
port, as well as the quantity.

that his supply is exhausted; he has, how

ahV one who may need these blanks will
send him word. On account of Il being the
