at the time he visited the valley, he
did not find any snow even on the
highest mountains. Previous to his
visit the thermometer had twice rec
orded a temperature Of 96 degrees. In
answer to criticisms that have been
made Of the work Of the Department
in Alaska, the secretary says: The
problem which the department has un-
dertaken to work out is to determine
whether a sufficient agriculture and
horticulture can be developed in Alas
ka to form an important subsidiary
industry to aid in the permanent de-
velopment OF mining. fisheries and
numbering which will undoubtedly be
the leading industries OF this region.
If all the food supplies Of the popula-
tion engaged in these industries must
be transported from the United States
and Canada. it is evident that the de-
velOpment Of Alaska will be much
slower and uncertain than II a con-
siderable portion Of these supplies can
be produced in the territory.

It Is very essential that apples should
be properly prepared for market IN
order that the best results may be OBJ
tained, and It Is with this end in view
that the following suggestions are sub
mitted:
Country shippers and packers Of ap-
pies should make It a point to pack
their fruit honestly; that is. have the
fruit run alike all through the barrel.
Do not endeavor to cause deception by
placing good, sound. large fruit on the
top and bottom Of the barrel, and flll
IN the middle with a lot OF gnarly,
wormy and decayed fruit. It does not
pay The deception is easily detected
upon investigation. and merchants do
not care to have fraud practiced upon
them, neither do they care to practice
It upon their customers.
Full regulation-sized barrels should
be used Take the barrel, one head
out, nail the hoops. and break on the
ends Of the nails at the inside: place
a layer OF tier Of apples. good and uni
form sizes. smooth, bright, healthy. as
closely as possible, stem downward,
on the lower end, then hll up, a basket
full at a time, throwing out small
wormy, gnarly and windfall apples
and shaking the barrel well after each
deposit until It IS full two inches above
the rim; place the head squarely on
the apples, and with a screw OF lever
press force It into place and nail se-
curely. Turn over the barrel and
mark name Of apple with red or black
lead. or stencil. Bear In mind that,
to be shipped safely. fruit must be
packed tight, to prevent rafting or
bruising.
In shipping apples the first Of the
season - early varieties shippers
should see that openings are cut on
the side Of the barrels and also in both
ends. to admit Of free circulation Of
air. which viii greatly help to bring
apples through IN good condition dur
ing warm weather.

A crisis in the wool market Is re-
ported from France, where more than
a dozen firms that were big buyers Of
wool have suspended payment During
the last two years there has been great
iuctuation in the price Of wool, and
during the last year the price has
been steadily declining. This has had
the effect Of leaving the big handlers
stranded. The losses through the fall
OF prices is reported to be IN the neigh
borhood Of sl5,000,00O
In the beginning Of 1898 combed
wool on time was quoted at n cents
per kilogram. This price rose steadily
until there was an increase Of IT cents
in twelve months. The year 1899
opened with a strong, rising market
and in December, 1899. the highest
price (S12O) was reached. These two
years were prosperous ones to all wool
merchants. but 1900 opened with fall
ing market, and during the last eight
months wool has fallen In price more
than 81 cents per kilogram. On Aug

The constant rise In the price Of
high grade wools has been accounted
for by the dearth Of merino sheep in
Australia and Buenos Ayres. where the
cross breeds seem to be driving high
grade wool out OF the market Pessi-
mistic accounts Of the drought in Aus
tralia and the mortality among the
sheep were circulated in France. and
merchants. fearing a lack Of raw ma
terial, bought large quantities at ex-
ceedingly high rates The market be-
came overstocked, and, the strikes and
high price Of coal diminishing { be

their stocks on hand and a falling mar

Another factor to be considered Is
the immense competition Of cotton.
Several mills recently have changed
their machinery to that for the manu-
facture Of cotton.

The United States Department oR
Agriculture has undertaken a good
work IN the securing for experimental
purposes the grasses that grow wild IN
this country. F. Lamson-Scribner, ag-
rostologist Of the Department Of Agri-
culture. summarizes thus the work that
has been already done along this line
According to the provisions OF the act
Of congress. making appropriations for
the Department of Agriculture for the
fiscal year 1901. this division was d.
reeted to purchase and collect seeds
and specimens Of valuable economic
grasses and forage plants. to be distrib-
uted to the various experiment stations
under the direction Of the Secretary
Of Agriculture. to ascertain their adapt
ability to the various soils and climates
Of the United States. In order to carry
out this direction, plans were made
early IN the season to undertake the
work with the beginning Of the fiscal
year. Mr.. G. L. Shear, an assistant in
the division. was put IN charge OF the
seed and field work, and Immediately
after July he began work In the field,
and several agents were employed to
work with him during the collecting
season. He was verbally instructed to
make the collection OF seeds OF valu-
able native grasses and forage plants
the leading feature Of his field work.
There are many native grasses and
forage plants Of great economic value
that have never yet been introduced
into cultivation. This is especially true
Of the grasses Of the great cattle ranges
OF the West, which formerly grew IN
such abundance and which through
over-stocking and mlsmanagementh have
now become almost extinct. In the
propagation and cultivation Of these
species, native to the soil and already
acclimated, lies the hope Of the ranch
man and the herder for restoring to
their former carrying capacity the now
depleted ranges and pastures. Particu-
lar effort has been directed to securing
In quantity seeds OF these wild range
grasses; also those Of probable vaiGs
In the South for winter pasturage,
those likely to prove good meadow
grasses for high attitudes and those
especially adapted to binding shifting
sands, for which there Is so much de-
mand Seeds Of a few native grasses
Of highly economic importance have
been obtained by purchase from parties
living in the ,tnote regions where
they grow. A number OF varieties we're
obtained In this way from the vicinity
Of Silver City. New Mexico. In all this
work It not infrequently happened that
long and tedious journeys had to be
made to regions inaccessible 70 stock
before grasses In seed could be found,
and the collection was made by hand.
Some four tons Of seed Of about one
hundred and thirty varieties Of grasses
and forage plants we're thus gathered
the quantities in each case varying
from one to five hundred pounds
Never before has so large an amount
OF native seeds been collected By the
department

The Agricultural Resources Of Aiaska.
In his report Of work done by agents
Of the Department in Alaska. the Sec
retary Of Agriculture, states that head
quarters have been established in a
building erected for the purpose in
Sitka. A station has been located
at Kenai, Cooks Inlet. and reser-
vatioas Of land for experimental
work. have been made on the
Yukon. The experiments thus far
made have consisted largely In grow
ing different varieties Of cereals. for
age plants. fax, and vegetables. Ex-
periments In making and storing silage
and IN making hay from native grasses
have been tried 70 a limited extent
The correction Of the acidity Of new
land with lime has been successfully
tried. SUFFICIENT evidence has been OBJ
tained to show definitely that a con-
siderable variety Of vegetables can be
successfully grown in different parts
Of Alaska. It has also been shown
that in southeastern Alaska and IN
Cooks Inlet oats, barley, buckWheat
and spring wheat win mature with
careful culture and that the failure Of
many attempts to grow crops IN Alas
ka has been due to the natural acidiiy
Of the soil and the lack OF drainage
when these difficulties are removed by
proper treatment the land is fertile and
productive. Prof Georgeson, who has
Investigated the Yukon valley, is very
favorably impressed with its agricul-
turai possibilities. He found large
areas OF excellent agricultural land and

quotes from some experiments Of Prof
E. 8. Con as follows: When potatoes
are placed for a few minutes IN brine
the lightest or those Of poorest quali-
~ and most deficient IN starch rise to
the top. By this method It is an easy
matter with the aid Of a hydrometer TO
determine the amount Of starch and
hence the quality Of the potatoes. The
author planted the light. the medium
and the heavy potatoes a. indicated BY
the brine test for two years IN success
sion. and. unlike European invesriga-
tors. noted no improvement n the
quality Of the crops as a result OF this
selection. He found that tubers grow
ing nearest the surface we're Of lowest
specific gravity or poorest quality. and
that the specific gravity increased with
the depth at which the potato grew.
This he ascribes to the cooler tempera-
ture at which the tuber grew found
at greater depths. He also found that
potatoes grown IN level culture. with
the consequent lover temperature
within the soil. had a greater speciee
gravity than those grown IN hllla.

The raising OF long keeping Varie-
ties OF apples is one Of the surest ways
Of making money out OF fruit. We
have watched the course OF the apple
industry for many years and have OBJ
served that the supply Of winter a3-
pies is never too large. During E-any
years the call for this kind OF fruit
has been great at all Of the great fruit
distributing centers. The foreign
trade will pay more for long keeping
varieties Of winter apples. even II Of
poor quality (such IS the Ben Davis)
than they will pay for the very finest
quality Of summer and fall apples. The
reason is that IL the summer and fall
varieties are shipped abroad at all
they must compete with the summer
and fall varieties grown in those coun-
tries, while the later keepers. being
sent abroad after the first Of January,
have the market to themselves. AS a
safe investment the orchard Of winter
apples should commend itself to every
apple orchardist.

The farmers that did not clean up
their orchards in the fall before the
snow came should see to It that the
work is not neglected in the spring
It should be begun as soon as the snow
is OF the ground. All the dead leaves
and old twigs and other burnable rub
bish should be raked up and burned.
The clumps Of grass IN the fence cor
ners should be disposed OF in the same
manner. This is for the sake OF de-
stroying not only the eggs Of insects
but also the spores Of destructive
fungi, which live over on the fallen
leaves and tWigs. The latest investi-
cations show that many Of our worst
fungous pests are carried over from
year to year on the rubbish under the
trees. This to some degree accounts
for the non-success Of spraying some
times reported. With a thorough
cleaning up Of the orchard the spray
ing Is generally effective, We say
generally" for the best medicines
will sometimes fail to accomplish the
end sought.

The question Of what crops to grow
in the orchard is constantly being dis
eussed. but the tendency Of the dis
cussions is to recommend that no ex-
haustiYe crop be grown there. Blue
grass and other sod grasses should be
avoided. as they deprive the roots OF
the trees not only Of food. but OF nee
essary moisture. This is a great factor
in a dry season. We believe that the
trend Of public opinion is in the right
direction.
