 Encouraging News

The mos, careful inspection of the orchards of Thomas Coach. j. J. Me Cleuan anu James Barlow at Rivera shows that the orchards ot these growers are as clean as any in the county. notwithstanding the fact that they are surrounded on ail sides by purple scale. The fact that these or charls have been kept clean by an an- nual treatment for insect pests Is a most conclusive argument against the individuals awaiting for hts neigh bors to dlslnfcct their trees before making a move for himself The state mcnt regarding ,acse three orchards Is not made loosely. but from an ex- animation ot each tree individually.

Prune Marmalade

"In my home in Germany" writes correspondent of the San Jose Mercury "I remember they put the raw prunes in five-gallon copper kettle and cooked them. The mass was then passed through n colander to separate the pits and stones from the pulp which my mother boiled down to the consistency of butter. and she added n few green walnuts to flavor it. IL was put up in those days in stone jars. but would be put up in tin now. IL was eaten on bread in the place of butter and 1 preferred it to butetr." This prune marmalade is a standard food in Germany. and should be popular in this country.

Irrigated Bsst'

Uutll quite recently it was the pre- valllng opinion among sugar beet rx- pcrts from Europe. who looked over the field in this country that sugar could not be raised successfully by ir- rlgatton. The plan was entirely con trary to the experience of beet grow CTS in Europe. and was condemned as lmpracticablc
 Nevertheless. certain entcrprislng Americans went ahead with their cx- perlmcnts In thls direction. and the results have amply justified their con- ndencc The irrigated beet Is an es- tabllshcd factor ln the American ltet sugar industry. Colorado and Utah have factories for which bccts arc largely raised on irrigated lands. and California ls meeting with similar sue cess. So gratifying have been the re- suits that within the last few months two companies have been organized with capital running up Into the mill Hons for the purpose of raising bcets on a large scale on irrigated lands and building sugar factories to meet the supply og beets The Arkansas Valley Bee, Sugar and Land Company has bought large tract os land in Colo- rado. which IL intends to colonize and put into beets.

The Los Angeles Sugar Company has large territory in California on which ex- perlmcnts tn growing sugar bects have been carried on for some time. and which will b. utilized In n similar manner.
 An extraordinary thing In connection with this matter is that bects in Col orado and California show an unusu- ally high sugar content. IL may be premature to claim that this ls re- suit of irrigation. since there are many other factors. as the practically vir- gin soil and the singular climatic con- di,ious may cut figure.

PORK DROPS NEARLY
90 PER CENT IN PRICE

The principal change in the meat mar
ket this week has been in pork, which,
from luxury at Is and IA cents pound,
has dropped as low as 7 cents for whole
loins and and cents for smaller pieces.
High price in pork means hardship for
many families In Worcester who buy this
more than any other kind of meat, and
its descent to the normal has been well
coined.
Good beef is still high, and as a conse-
quenee many dealers are selling light
beef, which is down fairly low.
In the line of fruit, Concord and Ca
tawba grapes hold the leading place,
though the best of the season is over.
California grapes - Malagas, Cornichons,
Muscatels, Tokays and Red Emperors-are
quite cheap this year, and are competing
well with the ordinary varieties
