The Smallest Apple Crop in Years.

The commercial apple crop of 1901,
according to the final report of "The
American Agriculturist," October 10,
is placed at %, 900, 600 barrels, against
4S, 900, 600 barrels one year ago
and nearly 7O,OOO,OOO barrels in the
bumper crop year, 1896. In what has
long been considered the commercial
apple belt, phenolnen ally light yields
are the rule. The surprising thing is
the development of the crop in the
southwest, many counsiss there report
ing the largest yield in years, and OF
fine quality. As . result, eastern buy
ers are making heavy drafts upon
southwestern apple orchards, paying
farmers big prices. The crop is phe-
nomally small in the States usually ex-
pected to furnish the surplus for the
winter markets on both home and ex-
port account. Condition in apple or
chArds show almost steady deteriora-
tion since the full bloom of early spring
A fair to short set of fruit in the Mid
die Eastern States was followed by try
ing weather and heavy drop, and, to
add to this disappointment to growers,
heavy gales in September caused fur
ther serious loss in Michigan, New
York, etc.
The market situation could not be
otherwise than strong. says this au-
thority. Dealers hesitate little about
paying figures ruling in the country,
although they maintain there is some
risk to them. The export movement
has been fair to date, and foreign deal
ers say they can take moderate guam
tity of good to choice apples at the high
prices IN. Y. Tribune.

Pick Out the Best.

A saving of dollars in the purchase
of breeding stock is often false econo-
my, as this often means a lower grade
of stock. The higher priced birds are
often the cheaper in the long run and
are much the better investment. There
are, of course, exceptions, but it usual
ly pays to buy the best, if you are go
ing to raise poultry for market or for
eggs, for good layers are usually the
descendants of good layers.
1t will be noticed that even under
very unfavorable circumstances a few
hens in the flock will lay, while the
others seem to live for no other pur-
pose, apparently, than to eat.
The hens that lay the best should be
placed by themselves during the breed
| ing season and made the foundation of
the future flock. By forethought and
persistently following this plan, the
laying habit may be SO liked in flock
in a few generations as to almost
double the egg yield.
One farmer built up his egg record
from an average of Sc eggs per hen the
first year, to 179, then to 1S6, then 1876
and his last years record was 1913. His
method has been the simple one oi
picking out the earliest and best layer:
to breed from.

there is a chance for a scrap. He

Time to Get After
the Peach Borer.

Professor johnson, of the Maryland
station, says that the parent of the
peach borer is small moth which lays
its eggs on the bark of the trees from
6 to Is inches above ground.
The egg laying begirs in June and
continues until late in September. The
worm matches in a week or ten days
and works downward into the crevises
of the bark, feeding on the inner lay
ers. 1t feeds until late fall and passes
the winter in a burrow near the surface
of the ground. Digging it out is the
most satisfactory and effective remedy.
The best time to do this is in the
early part of November. A knife or
any other sharp instrument with a
sharp point is best adapted. First
have the earth taken away from around
the trees to a depth of from four to
eight inches below the surface, al least
two or three days before you want to
do the work. This allows the trunk to
dry, and, as rule, the borer will show
some sign by which his presence can
be detected.
After the worming has been done,
have the earth drawn back around the
trees SO as to protect the roots and
trunk from winter freezes. Some per-
sons leave the trunk of the tree and
the roots exposed, thinking that the
cold weather will kill the worms. The
worm is rarely ever destroyed by the
/ oold

AGRICULTURAL.
Prepare the Hens For Winter.

A writer in Wallace's Farmer says
that the old hens which have had free
farm range will probably be very fat
when the time arrives for shutting
them in the winter rquarters-altogeth
er too fat to be of any use as layers dur
ing the winter unless steps are taken
10 reduce their weight.
For the first two or three weeks after
placing hens in winter quarters the
owner must exercise caution in his
manner of feeding them. He had bet
ter dispense with the soft feed in the
morning and give instead not to exceed
q pint of wheat to ten hens. This
should be scattered on a we'll Uttered
floor. This does away with the hens
that are rolling fat and by too liberal
feeding are kept in that state till
spring.
Moulting hens which have free acces:
to grain will become very fat in the
fall. They do not lay with any regu
larity aud the grain which would ordi
narily be converted into eggs goes t.
the making of fat. Hens two or three
years old will not be over the moul
before November. and winter catche
them before laying has been resumed
If not trained down to laying condition
the owner can feed and fuss with ther
as he will, but he will get no eggs
After everything else has failed he
likely to conclude that the hens are to
fat and then set about doing the thin
which should have been done at tn
loutstart of the winter.

TIE f;rat raliahla Inflammation 20,

The first reliable information con-
corning the failure Of the r. NJ
Roberts supply house at Minneapolis
reports the assets at $4,000 and The
liabilities at $778,OOO. The failure Of
this house shows that business can
not be done on the close margins
they attempted, and it is doubtful
if goods could be sold cheaper than
by local merchants where one takes
iuto account the great expense ac-
count Of one Of these supply houses.
All the money which the farmers of
Minnesota have spent with T. M.
Roberts has simply meant a bonanza
for the railroad and express COM
pauies, who were the real benefci-
aries by the small parcels trans
ported. Now that T. M. Roberts has

nerch ants will get the trade to which
hey are entitled.
