TROURLE AT ODESSA,

The wheat growers of this country wont be deeply Respondent over the condition of things at Odessa, where the scarcity of berth accommodations in the barbor for grain carrying steamers is the cause of growing discontent among sbippers, and threatens to affect the exnort grain trade very seriously. Brit isf shipowners are already beginning to talk of boycotting the port altogether unIess some attention is paid to their demands. The chief trouble seems to be the monopoly of wharfage by vari- ous Russian concerns. Foreign vessels often have to wait from ten to fifteen days for berths, instead of loading and clearing in five or six days. Recently nc fewer than twenty eight British steamers were moored on the inner side of the breakwater, while sixteen rode ali anchor in the harbor awaiting their turns The grain exporters suffer from the demurrage, but not to such an eX- tent as the shipoWners, who estimate their loss at about $2OO day on each steamer kept waiting. Besides the for tv-fuur British steamers already men toned there were six alongside the Guays loading cargo, and these occu- Lied the total available room for boats loading at the same time There are other berthing places, but these remain useless for steamers of over a certain draught, merely for the want of an extra foot or twenty inches dredging

easily be made available for ships now rigidly confined to the quarantine har- bor The port authorities do not seem to care two straws either for the inter ests of foreign shipowners or for the prosperity of the industry upon which odessa almost solely depends.

FxpLoDED BosToN NOTION.

AN FXPLODED BOSTON NOTION.
 The advocates of municipal owner- ship of public utilities" will not find much support for their cause in the eX- perience of Boston with it's printing off, flee In 1897 there was a notion in Bos- ton that the city ought to do it's own printing and that it could do 1t for less than it could hire it done. So a city printing establishment was set up. This establishment has already cost Boston a loss of 10000. Last years deficit was about $10,000, and this happened in spite of the fact that each of the city de- partments was charged more for it's printing than private offices were ready to do the work for. Mayor Collins is going to allow this expensive establish ment to be continued one year longer, on the assurance that 1t can be more economically managed If the results are not satisfactory, as they are cer- tain not to be, he will then recommend the abolishment of the printing plant.
 It is one thing for a city to go into business. and quite another thing for a city to do business profitably, or even without loss.

Two hundred years ago John How Of Guilford, England, left property, real or personal, upon curious terms. Its in come was to reward ''the female domes- tic who remained at least two years in one situation within the borough and who should throw the highest number with two dice in competition with another aspirant for the money"-that is to say, 1t was to encourage fidelity of service and it must be feared, spice of gambling.

Protest is made in England against text books in French schools which teach the children to hate England. These books have pictures showing English troops being humilitatinaly de- feated by small bands of Boers, and one o,1otation is made which says that the English army is not national army like that of France, but is recruited en- tirely by Kidnapping; a method which the same authority says is aided by al- turing and lying promises and the use of gin to make the recruit contented.

Fruit Raising vs. Mining.

There is active mineral pros- pecting going on at Green Forest. In fact, one of the best backed mining schemes that has been launched in this part of the state is now in operation here.
 A company of Kansas City gentlemen among whom may be mentioned Maj. E. s. W. Drought, construction engineer of the Kansas City stock yards; Willis Wood millionaire capitalist and banker; William and Fred Huttig of the Great Western Sash 6 Door Co.,, and whose wealth also runs up in the. mil lions, are all lending their per- sonal attention to this enterprise.
 These people are spending lots of time and money to test what they have reason to believe is a rich deposit of mineral, having gone down with a drill in advance of sinking a shaft, the latter now being a little more than 100 feet deep.
 TaE TRIBUNE does not hold out this fact as an inducement to people to come here and invest with the prospectof making mon- ey at mining, for tits an unknown quantity. We merely mention it that it may be known what IS go- ing on in this line.
 Should mineral be proven to abound here ever so rich, we stlll contend that fruit raising IS the real thing. In planting an or chard you can take no chances and it takes little means to prose- cute the work. Fruit producers are all of the moneyed class, not hirelings; consequently the wealth of the country is much more equally distributed, and a more happy, contented and pros- porous people is the result. t
 THE TRIBUNE figures that min eral is not necessary 1n any sense to make this country great, that whatever we may possess III mineral wealth is that much ahead. Tn the fruit industry there is no limit, but 3 sufflciency for all who are seeking either a safe investment or profitable employ ment.

he sees fit, make his living five or SIX years, until his trees begin to bear, may safely count upon an annual return from his acre of from S100 to S400, according to the season and the varieties of his fruits.
 The prospective settler may figure with himself how many of these acres he is able or cares to own, always keeping in view that he will never be able to own more than he can properly have cared for. He can get these acres fig uratively at his own price, for there is in Carroll county thous- ands of acres of virgin forest, with some of the finest hard tim Der in the world, of pine, oak, ash and walnut. These lands are cheap, their principal value be- ing in timber; but once this is cleared away, and the purchase price far more than realized therefrom, the investor has the land to commence orcharding on as good as can be found, and with the additional advantage of being new, fresh and rich.
 One thing above all should be remembered by the WOuld-b be or chardist, however, that paying orchards do not, like Topsy 'just grow" If they make profitable trees, it is by careful attention and cultivation. The common sense, energy and experience of the fruit grower is usually shown by the fruit he raises. While fruit raising and selling is more profitable and less laborous in this section than perhaps any where else in the fruit growing belt, there are no "flowery beds of ease" about it, and satisfactory results are obtained only by the fman who puts attention and muscle into his enclosure, as well as apple and peach sprouts. Ma ture is his firm ally from the first no fruit raising section is so free from blight and pests of every kind as Northwest Arkansas, and it is this fact that makes it pre- eminently "the land of the big red apple.

that it looks preposterous that it should be necessary to make comparison, but a correct know ledge of facts is not worth any thing to person unless he will put that knowledge to practical use.
 Since you have asked me to express my views on the fruit industry, there is one more thought that l wish to present. Every loyal citizen who is inter- ested in the ancement and development of the country should realize that he is respon- sible to 8 certain extent, for the social and commercial condition of his locality, and if it is not up to the standard, and should out siders criticise, he should never murmur. The opportunities and possibilities open to each citizen in this favored land are so great that there is left absolutely no excuse, and to complain is to cast reflection, upon ones own ability to appropriate the vast wealth of unclaimed blessings that are ours for the taking"

FROM A POINT OF BUSINESS.
Why the Railroad Manager En-
 Courages Raising of Fruit.

Why the Railroad Manager En-
 courages Raising of Fruit.
 The following letter from Gen. eral Manager George West of the St. Louis & North Arkansas Rail- road company explains itself:
 EDITOR TRIBUNE:-Answering your recent inquiry, 1 wish l had time to get up a letter such as the importance of the question deserves.
 Briefly in answer to your ques- tion: "Why do 1 as Manager of the Railroad company take so much interest in fruit growingin this section?," would say Fam deeply interested in the develop ment of the fruit industry adja- cent to our line of railroad for the. reason that nothing else will pay so surely and to such an extent and increase the valuation of the farming country in our territory so largely as the raising of fruit, especially apples. Themore fruit the farmers in our section raise the more tonnage for the railroad company.
 Another reason is the adapti- bility of our section of the coun- try in soil, climate and elevation above the sea level. We can not compete with Illinois and Texas in broad prairies and level, rich farming land, but We can compete with the world in regard to soil and climate for the raising of fruit. l am glad, indeed, to note that there has been quite an in- terest shown by the farmers along the line of our railroad in the matter of setting out fruit trees. AS great as the interest is at present among our farmers, l can heartily wish 1t were four fold as great. There is no reason why, with the advantages and benefit of the experience of fruit raisers in Washington and Benton coun- ties, which we have, in seven years from today Carroll and Boone counties should not reap a harvest, from their fruit alone, of over S1 ,000, 100000 each. With prosperity of this kind coming to our farmers and fruit raisers 1 think you will agree with me that the best interests of the railroad company which represent com pei me to take the keenest sort of an interest in encouraging fruit raising along the line of our railroad. This. was the reason we went after and secured the next meeting of State Horticul- tural Society for Green Forest and this is also the reason why I desire our next meeting of the State Horticultural Society which will be held at Green Forest to be the greatest and best in the his- tory of that association. We must all work together to that end.
 There are two other reasons why I take so much interest in fruit growing in this section. One is the unparalleled health fitness of our climate and the proximity to market. We are situated so that we can command the markets of St. Louis and the north and of Texas and the south. 1 trust that you will join me in urging upon cur farmers to plant fruit trees and take good care of them, for there is surely a fortune for them, and money for the railroad in that direction.
 Yours very truly,
 GEORGE WEST, Manager.

Will Apple Raising be Overdone!

We may say never, says an ex- perienced orchardist. Because the planting is not keeping step with the consumption. Again, the home of the apple is too nar- rowly circumscribed to supply the demand upon it. The area suited to the apple embraces the fortieth parallel and two degrees on either side of it. That is the limit to successful apple growing. The demand for it is world wide. It's consumption in many coun- tries is yet unknown. That it will force itself into recognition where it is now unknown is eer- tain, especially when it becomes cheap enough to export.
 About 3,000,000 barrels of apples are exported annually for European consumption alone. The demand promises to be much greater in the future. The apple lis unlike most other fruits in that it's keeping qualities are such, through the improved method of caring for them, that they may be kept through a longer season, giving plenty of time to ship long distances. Their fine flavor and health giving properties make them almost a necessity.
 Now, there is much to be learned about apple planting, if you would succeed. There are thousands of bushels in our or- chards every season, useless and roting, for reason of a market. This, to the inexperienced, is sure sign of over production. But. let us see. In times past, people coming from the east, had their notions gained in the east, and planted such sorts as they were familiar with. These varieties being of northern origin, were found to be fall varieties here. In planting for commercial purposes plant only the best; only late sorts should be grown. You should lay aside your pref erences in this matter, if you would succeed. Plant the big red varieties known to do well in your locality and not too many kinds. Grow in groups so as to avoid mixing while gathering. Some recommended planting two rows of ; kind, then two of another kind, claiming that this will greatly assist in fertilizing the flowers. An orchard well cared for, will, in 8 few years, bring greater returns than any other part of the farm, say in five years, and at six to eight years it will bearon barrelto thetree. If you plant your trees one rod by two north and south, you will have eighty trees per acre; this will make at least S1 per barrel, which is a fair estimate, S8O,; and then you have just begun to realize, for with proper. care, it will'keep right on getting better each year.
