AsAssssg n A |. ELS FOX AMERICAN
FRUITS.

III n n II i
a man WHO has1ooked the ground
over 4 apparently with considerable
care, was recently reported as hav-
ing come to the conclusion that
American fruit growers have little
to expect from Asiatic markets be-
cause most Asiatios are poor, and
quently compelled 70 live at
such 4 low level that they could not
afford to purchase American fruits.
This poverty Of the Asiatics is no.
news 70 persons 1t ali conversant,
either BY personal observation or
earefl1I reading with conditions
among the masses Of the great East.
No American would call living the
sort Of existence to which the aver
age Asiatic is compelled to submit.
The wages paidin Asia, as a whole,
probably would not average above
ten per cent. Of the average Ameri-
can wages, even counting into the
aggregate the low wages paid IN
the Southern States on the planta-
tions and in some Of the mills, as
we'll as in some of the New England
mills where wages have been driv-
EN- BY competition among the hosts
of mill hands themselvesto remark
ably low levels forthe United States.
Because Of this prodigiousd ispar-
ity in the amount that Americans
have to spend as wages, as conl1'ar-
ed with the pocket money OF the
Asiatic, the American market is
many times richer than the Asiatic.
Its safe to saythat our76, 100000
Of people consume annually as much
as 100, 900, 900 people subjected to
Asiatic conditions: and at least as
much as 500, 900, 900 of people sub.
jected to even European conditions
At any rate, the richest market, fal
and away on the whole globe is the
market we Americans have here al
about us, without running any o.
the risks consequent upon foreign
shipments. And if our fruit grow
ers are alive to their own interest:
they will make every effort first te
please the American customer, botE
as to the quality and the price O
their products. IL. .aa..
American fruits have already &C
quired an enviable reputation ever
right here at home, in spite of the
inclination of human nature to 1g
more virtues, familiarity with which
is apt to breed contempt in tht
minds Of the thoughtless: and the
home demand is capable Of an al
most indefinite expansion mot
alone through increase in the pei
capita consumption. Almost every
body is fond of some sort of fruit
and not a few Of US are fond Of al
kinds It requires only that thf
quality should be uniform at sat,
isfactory level and that the price
should be within the reach of ths
average wage Garner, in order t.
make nearly 10000, 900 of people
hereabouts enthusiastic consumer
of American fruits, much to thei
physical, if not to their mental ant
moral improvement. -Et.
