with too sickly a growth for the devel-
cpment Of fruit. This is one Of the pests
that is most widely spread. and most
feared because of the wide range IT
tree growth it attacks. The Montana
inspection is especially rigid on all fruits
that are liable to its alta ok, and much
Of the condemnation is made for this
enc pest.
Thanks to the wise laws passed by the
legislators Of the state. and the great
care taken by the orchardists them
selves, Montana fruit Is free from the
visitations of all manner of noxious in
sects, and 1t is the effort of the board
OF inspectors to keep it so. Especially
in western Montana, apple growing is
getting to be a really great industry,
well worth the protecting. Montana
fruit is perhaps the best in the whole
world in this respect. Certainly none
could be better. Montana apples are ex-
ported to Canada. crab apples from this
state bringing as high as 50 crate.
when others are not wanted at all. It Is
very much the same in other varieties.
Comparatively few however. are shipped
away, the home market being too insist
emit on having homegrown apples in
preference to others, even at higher
prices.
Swan johnson of Missoula. manager
of the Montana Fruitgrowers' union. who
has full charge Of all the packing and
marketing Of the product of the assocla-
ton, comprising nearly all the growers
of the Bitter Root. Missoula and Plains
valleys. is authority for the statement
that this years crop will fall far short
of the average in quantity, but as COM
pensation the quality is about the best
ever known.

body of the man. Then an examination
was made, and it was found that poor
Wilson had died while he slept, the grim
angel coming so quietly that the face Of
the dead man was hardly distorted
by the pains of approaching dissolution.
Tenderly the body of the young man
was carried to the nearest town, where
doctors decided death had been caused
by heart disease. superinduced by the
abrupt breaking away from liquor, with
which the mans system had been satur-
ated. The dog could not be kept away
from the coffin, so it was decided to send
him along with the dead man.

"The body Of Jim Wilson. who died in
Montana. while alone on a sheep ranch,
reached town this morning, accompanied
by a small dog. which remained on the
coffin all the way from the west, accord
ing to the trainmen."
Thus read short local item published
in the weekly paper in a little Illinois
town this week. Jim Wilson had come
home.

is not what it should be. More than a
carload OF apples have been destroyed
since the beginning Of the season. The
apples, and any other fruit that may
be found wanting, are taken to the city
Crematory. south of the city, dumped
into the great furnace. and burned to
ashes. to destroy the last trace Of what
might infect Montana orchards and
trouble or even ruin the fruit-growing
industry Of the state.
Apple-growing Is by far the largest Of
tie fruit industries of the state, the in
sect pests that trouble this fruit are
given special attention. Chief among
the pests that may appear to ruin the
orchardist's crop, are. the codling moth
ard the San Jose scale. The codling
Enloth is the well known apple worm,
(which affects the apple and the pear, or
scft seeded fruits. The San Jose scale
isnore cosmopolitan, attacking almost
anything in the way of fruit trees, as
well as the Linden, the elm, willow, al
der, orange. and other trees and shrubs.
It infests the limbs of the trees, or the
fruit itself, living drought he winter

None of the fruit that goes on the
market is susceptible to more disease
than apples and nothing else is shipped
or grown in so large quantities. as the
apple. The apple is the staple fruit Of
America: also as common as potatoes,
and grown over far wider range than any
ether. With the opening of the apple
season, the state inspectors have
doubled their efforts. and not. a. crate Ct

'sI'll never return until have made
my fortune in the west" said Jim Will
son, as he stood in the parlor OF his
mothers residence, resisting the plead
ings of his relatives to remain In the
little Illinois city that he had long
called home, instead of seeking his for
tune in a far-away country.
."There is no chance in this little town,
YOU know" he added, half bitterly, as
he called to mind the various positions
he had filed for time and which he had
lest because he would look upon the
flowing bowl too often. mo one will
give a man a chance here" and a cynical
sneer came into his face.
perhaps, Jim," and the voice OF his
mother was low and pleading, II you
gave yourself a chance others would
be more apt to help you"
IT don't need the aid of any one,"
sneered the young man. II can and will

looked down at the young fellow who
accosted him at Great Falls. a few
weeks later. 'Well, what can you dog"

reply.
"Got no use for an education out here"
was the answer Of the sheep owner. with
a smile. what we want is brains. and
muscle-principally the latter. Can you

"Never tried 1t, sir, but II you will
give me a chance I'll do my best"
"All right, my boy, only want to tell
you now that you've got to let whist
alone. Your name is Jim Wilson. you
say-all right, report here tomorrow, and
I'll send you out to my ranch: And. say.

"Guess he does. sir. He followed mo

1T Is pleasure to see the Montana
apples this year." he said. 'They are
heavy and solid as fruit can be; they will
be larger and weigh more to the crate
than they do of other years. In this
the grower will be able to sell almost
as many pounds Of fruit, and a far finer
quality. are satisfactory to all concerned.
"Our union will ship twenty or more
cars Of apples to the Butte market this
year. besides two cars of pears, one or
two of plums, and few other varieties.
They are all light in yield, but Of good
quality.
THE best varieties Of early apples are
the yellow transparent, the Red Astrak-
han and the Duchess. The first is fine
fruit, but red apple always sells best.
The Duchess. beautifully striped red
and white fruit, r perhaps the best
seller.
"Crab apples do we'll in Montana; there
are no finer grown anywhere in the
world.They are harder than the other
apples and have a wider range, but have
not been planted so freely here as they
should be.
Montana has been kept remarkably
free from Insect pests; indeed, one may
say that there is not trace of any OF
the pests that ravage the orchards Of
other states. Oregon orchards have been
quite badly affected"
The efforts of the inspection bureau Of
the state horticultural board will not be
relaxed the least as long Is fruit is being
shipped into the state. The fruit grow
ing industry is too large, too promising.

mountain, on the slores OF which were
feeding thousands of sheep. OF in the

In Montana, to accept the humble po-
s!tion of herder of sheep.
We will win out in spite OF every
thing" continued the man, as he caressed
the dog, which looked up into his face
with almost human tenderness. "No
more whisky for us; we're temperance
from now ON. and they will be proud of
US when we return to Illinois"
AS night fell upon the mountain and
the somber shadows clothed the tent of
the sheepherder in black the only sound
that broke the silence was the gentle
beating of the sheep. lying nearby.
All was calm and quiet. and not even
the dismal yelp Of the coyote came to
mar the peace Of the night.
Through the open door Of the tent
peeped the moon, resting for a moment
en- the face of the sleeping man, upon
which played a smile. Then his lips
moved, as II q prayer were being formed:
then came an expression that betokened
pain. and a slight groan aroused the dog,
which drew near to the man and gravely
licked his face. Again all was quiet.

man. three days later. as in company
with several friends he approached the
camp of Wilson, the sheepherder.
"There's all those sheep running around

d spree and left his sheep behind him. y
AS the men approached the tent and
started to look in there came a warning
srowl from the dog curled up close be-
side a man who. apparently. was asleep.
Wake up. there. Wilson," shouted
the ranchman. There was no response
and a strange fear fell upon the men,

coaxing could get the dog away from
the tent. He had cast his lot with the
tramp who cared for him when he need

sert him now. when his master seemed
unable to help himself.
Finally rope was procured and after
a skillful cast the dog was dragged
