Winter Apples.

r.. n. Brandagee, president of the
state board of horticulture, speaks
interestingly of the efforts of Bitter
Root valley fruit growers and others
toward raising a winter apple which
by it's flavor and keeping qualities
will find great favor in the shortest
time possible and place it upon the
market. He says that the efforts OF
persons now raising fruit were turned
that way and that he expected that
within a few years one of the finest
winter eating apples known will be
| raised in Montana.
Many of the fruit growers are eX
perimenting along that line now,
says President Brandegee, "and some
good should result in time. 1t is ex
| ceedingly hard to find an apple just
| suited for winter market for the diff
| ticulties in raising fruit of any kind
in proper way is only known to
those who are engaged in the bust
ness. The trees must not be too
big or the clusters too large, besides
numerous other facts which tend to
make apple growing successful.
The Wealthy is a good fall apple,
but they do not last long as they be
come soft and their skins become
loosened. For winter eating the JON
athan. Spitzenberg and Northern Spy
are used considerably while the
best apple of all for winter purpose
and which is probably most extern
sively used, is the Mcintosh Red.
This is a fine apple and meets with
great favor. The Bellflower, which is
Tn1s 10 ,tthi nt, xXy0S
formerly much used throughout this
state is rapidly being supplanted by
the Mcintosh Red. People find that
the Montana apples are just as good
as those raised anywhere and be-
sides are cheaper. They are raising
new apple in Missoula called the
Missoula. It promises many good re-
suits and from Indications will devel-
op into a first class eating apple"
Regarding the Montana fruit ex-
hhit for the St Louis exposition next
year, Mr.. Brandegee says:
"a car of apples in cold storage
will probably be sent there about the
first of the new year. They are now
engaged in packing them in Butte un-
der the direction of c. II. Edwards,
secretary of the board of horticul-
tnre. It will be one of the finest col
lections of apples ever made in this
state and we will astonish the people
at the worlds fair on color and quail
ity The apples are being placed in
two thick wrappings of brown paper
and are then packed tightly in boxes,
They are then placed in the cold
storage car. About 500 boxes will
be packed in this manner. No plums
or pears will be packed at present, as
they will not keep until the time for
opening tine exposition. The other
fruits to be placed on exhibition be
sides the apples will be sent from
next years crop"

GOVERNORS
MESSAGE
Continued from Page l.,

public sentiment might crystalize and
find expression.
1t is true that provision is made
by which the executive can in his
judgment. extend the scope of legis
lative power by special recommended
ton. but this should be done only in
cases of special character which do
not run counter to the reason of the
rule requiring publicity BY proclama-
ton.
l assume that the preparation and
passage of proper bills of the charac-
ter last mentioned would necessarily
prolong this session beyond the rea-
sonable expectations of all of us.
1t is true that railroad lobby
could be quickly summoned to repre-
sent the railroad interests. but it is
not at all probable that the public's
interest could be so speedily found
Or made manifest.
similar request was made of me
at the extra session in May last. and
in reply to this l said:
THE public, whose interests are to
be affected. are likewise entitled to
be appraised of the character of leg
islation which is contemplated at an
extra session, and there are no means
of doing this without unduly prolong
ing this session.
There may be other matters deem
ed by some to be quite as important
as this. and to permit this would be
to open the door which could not be
closed without discrimination and
just criticism''
| have had no reason to change my
views as then expressed. and have
called attention to the subject now
in order that no time may be lost in
the useless agitation Of subjects not
embraced in the call.
There are. however. two matters
which may we'll be considered eXcep-
tons. and which ought to be consid-
cred.
At your last regular session a bill
was passed. submitting an amend
ment to the constitution to the quail
fled electors of the state. prohibiting
the employment of children under
sixteen years of age in underground
mines and making a period of eight
hours a days labor on public works
and in mills and smelters and under
ground mines
This measure appears to have been
we'll considered, and while it met the
approval of more than two-thirds of
the senate and a unanimous vote in
the house, it failed to become opera
tive because said amendment, to-
gether with the ayes and noes of
each house thereon. was not entered
in full on their respective journals.
as required by section 9, article 10 of
the constitution. If this measure is
passed now it can be submitted at
the next general election as original
" intended. otherwise it will fail
through a mere clerical omission.
! therefore recommend the re-en-
actment of bill providing for the
submission of such amendment
The other proposition relates to
the administration of the Office of the
state superintendent Of public in
struction.
am advised that every elective
officer of the executive department
has been furnished with a clerk ex-
cept the state superintendent of pub
lie instruction.
am also advised and believe that
the orderly and proper dispatch of
the business of his Office requires a
clerk.
accordingly recommend that an
appropriation not exceeding one hun
dred and fifty dollars per month be
made for that purpose.
