PERFUMEO STATUES.
Partisan Sculptors Add New Fad to
That of Tinting Marble.

The latest notion among Partisan
sculptors is to perfume as we'll as color
their feminine figures, says the Paris
correspondent Of the New York World.
The practice Of tinting the marble has
been gaining in favor with French
sculptors to such an extent that in the
last few years q pure white statue.
particularly If representing a woman,
has been a rarity.
The younger men, in their desire to
produce something ultra aesthetic, mix
their paints with oils specially prepared
with powerful perfumes, thus giving
an added touch of realism to the stat
,ues by making an appeal to the sense
Of smell as we'll as to that Of sight.
The true Partisan is an enthusiastic adj
vocate Of perfume.

YOU want to see the country unless you go

surprise to see the large acreage of young

sands of trees are shipped into that valley.
a nursery is to be started at Toppenish
with $4,000 capital The indications are
abundant that fruit growing is forging ahead
with tremendous strides. This is particu-
larly true of apple growing. What will be
the outcome of this? Will there be an over
wise orchardist do? Some would say that
the business should be curtailed. There are
some other things far better than that Ger
tain grades of fruit will always sell high
and certain markets will pay far better
prices than others. The enterprising grow
er must study these things and adapt his
business to them. Too many fruit growers
are content to raise fruit even good fruit,
and let the commission men and the fruit
brokers hunt out the markets and make
large share of the profits. This is mistake.
1t is right and proper for any man who is
in the business of handling fruit to make
fair profit. But no fruit grower should feel
that he is tied up to any class of men nor
to one particular market. He should know
enough about such matters to realize Wheth-
er he is getting fair returns for his fruit.
1t is good thing for the grower to sell his
fruit at home. This kind of business is
growing and some go SO far as to say that
the time is coming when shipping to COM
mission houses will be thing of the past
That may be, but it is not here yet and

the orchard, it would not be wise thing
70 tie up to that procedure. The up-to-date
fruit grower should know enough about the
general markets to be able to determine
whether he is getting what he ought to re-
ceive for his fruit Some of our most sue
cessful orchardsts ship their fruit to Eu-
ropean markets without the intervention of
middle men. What I insist upon is that we
should SO study the markets as not to be
tied up to any class of men.
With the large planting of fruit trees
noted above, it behooves us to hunt out for
eign markets, and in this way find an outlet
for our surplus fruit. There is great prom

The seventh biennial report OF the Oregon
Horticultural Society, just issued has val
liable article on this subject furnished by
Hon. H. B. Miller United States Consul
New Chwang, China. Mr. Miller says:

were packed in ordinary light IOXIIN22
boxes cleated on both sides, and apples
wrapped in paper. The packages held in
good shape and every box arrived intact"
Another interesting feature of this shipment
of apples to China is the carrying qualities
of the different varieties. The loss accord
ing to varieties was as follows: Ben Davis,
per cent; LAWYER, 10 per cent; Spleen
berg, 10 per cent; Shannon Pippin, rs per
cent; Jonathan, so per cent; Red Russian
Is per cent. Mr.. Miller further says ben
Davis, Yellow Newtons, Winesaps and sim
liar varieties will carry we'll to these mar
kets. Baldwns, Spitzenbergs, Northern
Spys and all that class will not succeed.
Several thousand boxes of Ben Davis ap-
pies are shipped to China every year, and
they invariably reach there in good condi-
ton, coming either from Portland, Seattle,
or Vancouver, B. c. These Northern routes
are the best for shipping green fruits on
account of the lower temperature of the
water and therefore less heat in the hold of
the vessel"
Again Mr. Miller says: apple shipments
for all Northern ports of China should be
shipped by October l. on account of danger
of freezing if arriving late in the season. If
apples reach North China in good condition
they will keep we'll there on account of the
dry, cold climate
Not only China will take vast quantities
of our apples but Russia will be a great
consumer of these fruits. Mr.. Miller, re-
ferred to above, has this to say with refer
ence to this phase of the subject: "In this
connection I wish to emphasize the fact that
Russia is already on the Pacific, having built
three important cities within the last few

Russians are great lovers of apples"

B. F. Surry, formerly assistant horticul-
turist to- Prof S. w. Fletcher of Pullman,
Wash, has located at Wenatchee with w.
F. Clark of the High Line Ditch Company
and is to plant large orchards there. Under
date of March Q he writes the editor of the
notes and asks the following question:
"How can we make the Spitzenberg more
sure to bear? 1t is one thing to make fruit
spurs to form and another thing to make
the fruit set and stick. What is best to
plant for cross-pollenation of the Spleen
berg? Not one that blooms at the same
time, but one that has been planted among
Spitzenberg and has actually made it bear
or seemed tor?
This is hard question to answer. 1t is
we'll known to fruit growers that the Spitz-
enberg is not a good annual bearer. Some
have discarded it altogether on this account,
and I am among that number. The Spitz-
enberg is a magnificent apple and sells at

reason that | do not grow it. | wish that
any one who has been fairly successful in
growing this apple would tell us what vari-
cites grow near to it. Any information OF
this kind will be thankfully received and the
same will be published in The Ranch. Act
ual experience from fruit growers furnishes
us with our most valuable information. We
shall be glad to have these bits of experience
on this particular subject or any other that
will have practical bearing.
T. H. Kirkpatrick of Custer, Wash, sends
the following bit of experience with refer
ence to the annual bearing of apple trees:
II find that most all of my fruit trees will
bear only alternate years. l overcome this
nicely by thinning each year to half or two
thirds of a crop. | am confident that by this
method I can have good crop each year.
Will others give their experience along
this line? I have not found this method a
complete success. [ can make the annual
bearers bear an even crop each year by this
method, but such varieties as the Delaware
Red Winter Gawver) will persist in bear
ing only each alternate year We make it
a rule to thin all Our apples when they are
too full, as is often the case, but this does
not make the LAWYER and some other vari
cites bear during the alternate years. The
Arkansas Backbone of the finest apples
on my ranch-seems to belong to that class
that will not bear good crop each year
When the trees are full, which happens ev-
cry other year, we thin heavily, but the
next year it comes up with but few apples
and seems to "I won't" If friend Kirkpat-
rick. who recently obtained some cuttings
of the Arkansas Black from me, can make
it bear annually, he can have the cake
Maybe I have not struck it just right, SO |
will keep on trying.
Judge Forney sends the following compli-
mentary letter to the editor of this depart
ment No doubt but the judge is right in
saying that the experience of the practical
fruit grower is valuable source of infor
nation Whether he is correct in his source
of information in this case may admit of
some doubt.

My Dear Sir: Accept my thanks for the
copy of The Ranch, containing your answer
to my inquiry in regard to pruning. This
has given me much information something
that we can't get from the books In fact,
believe that the experiences of a practical
fruit grower like yourself are especially val
liable to young fruit growers.
How long have you been corresponding
for The Ranch? I ask this for the reason
that would like to procure the back num-
bers of the same if possible, containing your
editorial notes. and one other question |
would like to put, with your permission, is
