a circular he says: The state society
has been a great factor in the wonder
full growth of the fruit industry in
Missouri. She ranks first now in ap-
pie orchards of any state in the Union.
The fruit lands of our state have
been brought more and more to the
notice of grower and dealer. We feel
proud to-day of our position, and with
proper care and attention we should
be able to hold it, To this end the
society in all its efforts to develop the
fruit interests of the state and to bring
good fruit men into it, has never lost
sight of the need of the best means
for educating, assisting and develop
ing all our fruit growers; instructing
them where knowledge is wanted, ad-
vising them where experience would
give the help needed, assisting, direct
ing, encouraging, whenever opportun1-
ty is offered.

The Seeding Apple

For a good many years there has
been a contest as to whether it was
better to hunt up new apples in tor
efgn countries and import them or de
velop new apple varieties from seeds
Both methods have been tried ano
both have yielded some discouraging
results. a few good apples have Deeh
imported from foreign countries, put
very many, after having been tried Tor
dozen years, have been cast aside as
worthless. On the other hand, OF ali
seedlings that have been brought to a
stage of fruitfu1nesS not one in thou-
sand has proved to be of value
However, we should not forget that
all the progress that has been made IN
the development of new. varieties at
home or abroad has been by means OF
seedlings. For every good variety we
now have, muItitudes of seedlings
have been tried and cast aside. we
must continue this work, though IL Is
very slow a process 1t IS a grea'
task to care for a thousand seeding
trees and bring them to a bearing age
They must be planted at first IN SEED
ling rows and then tranSplanted- Ihey
must be cared for after the best meth
DDS for years till they come into fruat-
ing. Even after that it is sometimes
necessary to keep them for otner
years to determine other facts ABOUT
them; for a tree will sometimes sho"
increased fruitfulness as the years go
on. Among the things that must pc
done for the trees are keeping the
ground fertile and the trees sprayed
The borers must be hunted out ana
the caterpillars attacked as soon as
they appear. The discouraging thing
about the work is that after SO long
wait and much hard work the grower
may find that not one tree is superior
to varieties already growing, and IN
less a new variety be superior IN at
least one point to other varieties 1t Is
of no use to save it.
The 1aborer can never know that he
is to reap the benefit of his haro
work Even if he develops superior
variety, other years must e1apse be
fore he can make anything from IT;
and even that will depend on his busl-
ness acumen and business energy
However, the Seeding is the only
available road of advance If all apple
growers would each grow a few trees
it would distribute the load over many
backs and it would weigh less heavily

LORD SALISBURY RESIGNS.
A. J. 1aIfour Succeeds Him as Prime
Minister of Great Britain.

London. July 13-The fact of the res
ignation of the premiership of Great
Britain by Lord Salisbury, as fore
shadowed in recent dispatches, was Of
ficially given out this evening. The
prime minister laid down the RESPONSE
biIities of his office July 11th. Within
tvJ enty-four hours his majesty elevated
A. ]. Balfour, the governments chief
representative in the House of Com
mons, to the position of premier.
While it was expected in political
and commercial circles that Lord Sal
isbury's retirement would be cci-ci-
dent with the coronation of King Ed
ward. it was scarcely looked for prior
to that event.
The liveliest speculation is rife as to
the personnel of the new cabinet. The
most discussed feature of the pending
changes is the position of Mr.. Cham
berlain, colonial secretary, who in
many quarters has been regarded as
the most promising candidate for the
premiership.
Lord Salisbury, in resigning, eX-
pressed the desire that no new title
or honors should be conferred upon
him.
The retirement of this last great
statesman of the Victorian age is uni
vcrsally regarded as the transition
from one generation to another ana
as marking the close of an era in the
national life.

Saved from Arctic Ice Pack.

Seattle. Wash, July 13.-The steamer
Portland. which was believed to have
been lost in the Arctic ice pack. ar
rived at st. Michael July 2nd, accosd-
ing to special dispatch received by
the Post-Intelligencer from Dawson.
The news was telegraphed up river to
Nuato. where the steamer Sarah
brought it on to Eagle, whence 1t was
wired to Dawson. The Portland sailed
July 3rd for Port Townsend. The YES
sci is in good condition and the pas
sengers and crew we'll Nothing has

the missing steamer Jennie.
The steamer Portland sailed for
Nome from Seattle April 26th. with
LOO tons of freight and 10 passengers.
The steamship was caught by i'm
mense ice foes in Bcring Strait July
3rd and when last seen was drifting
northward into the Arctic sea. The
United States revenue cutter Thetis
started in pursuit. but no trace of the
ship was found. and it was believed
she had been crushed in the ice pack
and all on board lost.

DENVER PRINTING SCANDAL.
Majority and Minority Reports Of the
Committee.

Denver, July 13.-Two reports in ref
erence to the county printing contracts
were handed to the chairman of the
county commissioners yesterday by the
county Investigating committee. The
majority report, signed by Nj. j. McNa-
mara. chairman. and George Il. Steele,
secretary, eXonerates both parties to
the contract of any fraud and collusion.
The second report. signed by w. III.
Kistler declares that the method of
letting contracts would be dangerous
under ordinary business circumstances,
and that the only way of getting at
the truth in full in regard to county
printing contracts would he an inves-
tigation by somebody with full legal
powers. Both reports concur in the
statement that the difficulty OF getting
witnesses renders their services no
longer useful. Both reports are very
short. taking up but three pages OF
typewriter matter.
Mr. Kistler's report attirms that the
statements made in the report of the
committee appointed by Judge Lind
sey. alleging overcharses to the amount
of between $4,000 and 100000, have
been confirmed by the work of this
committee.

Who Is Yale Graduate.

Peking. July 13.-Sir Liang Chen
Tung. secretary of the Chinese en-
bassy to the coronation of King Ed
ward. was to-day appointed Chinese
minister to the United States.
New Ministers to Russia. France and
Italy have also been named. The selec-
tions for these posts show that the
dowagcr empress continues to regard
the diplomatic service as unimportant.
None of the appointees is of higher
than the blue button rank. and none
has held any important office. All of
them except Liang Chen Tung are un>
known to the foreign community.
Liang Chen Tung's appointment
pleascs the Americans here. The new
ly appointed diplomat was educated in
America. He is Il graduate of Yale
University, and is able. dlgnified and
honest. He is the first of the body of
students sent to America in the 'IOs to
receive recognition befittng their ac-
complishments, the Chinese officials
having disliied them because of their
progressive views.

Minister WI Not Surprised.

Washington, July 14.-Mr. WI, the
Chinese minister at Washington, was
not surprised to hear of the appoint
ment of successor to himself, as he
had been expecting an announcement
of this character for some time. He
has received notice that his services
will be required in another capacity.
and for this reason has been prepared
to hear of the naming of his successor
at any time.
Sir LANG Chen Tung. the newly ap-
pointed mininter, is n comparatively
young man. being only a little over
forty years of age. Like the present
minister. he is said TO be man of
progressive ideas.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
In the issue of your valuable paper of
the 9TH instant appears an article entitled
House of Detention In it a statement
is made in reference to your city being
the first to establish such a place for chill
dren. 1t is believed there is some slight
misunderstanding in relation to this, as
New York city has had a house of deten-
tion or reception for children under the age
OF sixteen years since 1898. The legislature
of the state of New York many years ago
passed law absolutely forbidding children
under sixteen being kept in station houses,
prisons or jailS, with adult criminals, or to
be transported in wagons with them. 1t
was the first state in the Union to pass
laws specifically preventing and furnishing
wrongs to children; those laws have been
copied throughout the states. This system
of house of detention or shelter for chill
dren has also been extensively used as the
basis upon which to organize other similar
shelters or houses of detention, and was
undoubtedly the one that suggested to
Washington what has been so admirably
carried out there through the action of
Major Sylvester; likewise the laws of the
state of New York have been the founda-
tion of all the laws throughout the world
specifically to prevent cruelty to children.
This society was the first organized in the
world. At the present time there are over
300 in the states and Canada and nearly
100 in foreign countries.
