Missouri Foxes in North Carolina.

Will Marshall and w. P. Parsons
last spring imported forty-two young
red foxes from Missouri, purchasing
them from R. G. Mason of Kirkville.
In that state, a gentleman who makes
a business of raising them. These
young Reynards were taken into the
country and released, and they are al
ready asserting their presence, one
farmer reporting that he has lost 1875
chickens and eighty-seven turkeys.
Nearly all these original foxes are
alive, except a few that have been
shot by farmers. They have reared
families and are rapidly repopulating
the forest Of Arson.
The red fox is of an entirely differ
ent nature from the gray fox, and al
ways gives his pursuers a run for
their money, so to speak. The gray
fox runs in a wide circle. never going
very far from the place where he was
jumped; the red fox thinks of some
nook several hundred miles away and
he strikes out for it in a Decline and
fast must be the hounds that overtake
him.
These Missouri foxes are said to be
long, lean and wiry, and the hunters
Of Arson are anticipating some rare

AN ACID PHYSICIAN

ADVICE,

IF you have anything to do with

The manager of the Red Cross phar.

favor of their valuable cod liver oil
preparation, Vinol. 1t is not a patent
medicine, and everything it contains
is plainly printed on the bottle.
Vinol contains in a highly concen.
tIated form all of the medicinal ele'
ments of cod liver oil, actually taken
from fresh Gods livers, but without a
drop of oil II grease to neauseate and

colds, bronchial and lung troubles, and
there is nothing known to medicine
that will so quickly build up the run
down, overworked, tired and debilitat'
ed. or give strength and renewed vi.

Mrs. Martha Fraser of Portland, Me-,
writes-"I was all run down from over
work and had a chronic cough Tor
years. l had tried SO many remedies
without help that had lost all faith
in medicine and was discouraged. My
daughter bought me a bottle of Vinol
1t simply worked wonders for me; it
cured my cough and brought back
health and strength. and l am better
than | have been for years. cannot
say enough in praise of this wonderful

We car only ask every one in Lara

MET AFTER TWENTY YEARS.
Peculiar Circumstance in Which Two
Sea Captains Figure.


After rowing the seas for more than
twenty years as masters Of square
rugged vessels two British shippers. A.
8. Hatfield and S. j.. Hatfield, have at
last met in the port of Bangor and
shaken hands.
The men are cousins, live in adjoin-
ing towns in the Provinces, and yet,
although they have plowed every sea
in the world and have visited all ports,
north and south, east and west, have
never come into actual contact. They
have just missed each other several
times. once or the African west coast
and once in New York. But it remain
ed for the magnetism of Bangor to
bring them together. Capt. A. s. Hat
field is in the bark Osberga which
halls from Maitland. Capt. S. J. Hat
field is in the barkentine Eva Lynch
of st. John.
The peculiar part is that after seek
ing each other for so many years In
SO many parts Of the world they
should show up in a comparatively
small harbor, loading from the same
dock, for the jibboom of the Lynch
swings over the taffrail of the Os.

: Commonly, the first symptom OF n "cold "
is a chilly feeling, accompanied by sneez-
ing. or a tickling in the throat. The most
frequent of external causes are drauglits,
wet or cold feet, or going from hot rooms
suddenly into cold ones. More frequently
there is an inner cause-namely the stagna-
ton of the blood caused by constipation or
biliousness. Almost the first symptom is
the feeling of cold in the feet and increased
discharge from the nose.
No one ever takes cold unless consti-
pated, or exhausted, and having what we
call mal-nutrition, which is attended with
impoverished blood and exhaustion o~fnerve
force. TONES consisting of large portions
of alcohol, iron or cod liver oil do not bring
the desired changes in the blood. because
they do not enter the system and are not
absorbed into the blood, with the exception
of the alcohol. which shrivels up the red
blood corpuscles when it does come in
contact with them. We recommend the
botanical extract of DR.. Pierce because it
contains no a.cohol, and offers a reasonable
and scientific method of treating the blood.
by improving the nutritive functions of the
patient. The ~Golden Medical Discovery"
accomplishes this, by first restoring the
enfeebled digestive organs, so that food.
the natural tissue builder, will be digested
and assimilated.
Accept NO substitute for DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. There is moth
ing "just y good" for diseases of the

Grimes Golden, eight years old, bore
last year eighteen boxes, which SOLD
on the place at $1.40 box, which was
an unusually good price, OF course.
This year the yield will be about ten
boxes from the same tree. Contracts
for all the crop of this particular
variety of apples for period OF ten
years at 81 box, have been made by
responsible buyers.
The territory where Grimes Golden
grows to perfection is very limited.
In Michigan and New York 1t grows
about as big as a crabapple, while In
the Yakima valley it attains good
size and yields abundantly every year.

For example, twenty acres should
have about two varieties OF Fancy ap-
pies. By putting seventy trees to the
acre (thirty feet apart), small fruits
and garden or even peach trees can
be grown between the trees till the

above that figure. Some growers
have made contracts covering their
outputs for five years at following
prices: For 1904, 18c per 10; O5,
at 15c; 'O7, at 13c, and '0S, at 13c-
an average of over Is cents a pound,
of which 71s cents is net profit. At
1900 pounds per acre the net profit
amounts to $135 an acre per year for
five years.
The crops sold this year at % cents
per pound will turn a net profit for
this season of over $500 an acre.
This crop represents a larger
amount of capital invested than most
any other line of agriculture, as it
costs about 500 an acre to prepare
ground, get vines into healthy condi-
ton, construct necessary buildings,
etc.; and the labor is practically all
hired help.
In New York state many small yards
of one-quarter to three-quarter acres
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1904-11-01

are grown and picked by one family,
but that custom does not prevail here.
Few yards contain less than ten acres;
twenty acres is more common size.
1t is probably the most successful
example of gentleman farming as
it does not impose the hardships upon
the proprietor which are incidental to
so many other lines of agriculture,
and from harvest time, about October
LIST, till the following April there is
absolutely nothing to be done.
Fancy apples for hotels, stands, etc.
are not produced in any of the large
apple-growing states of the East, such
as New York. Michigan, Missouri and
Canada. Such fruit is grown only in
the irrigated states, namely, Colorado,
Idaho and Washington; and it is for
this reason that the largest apple
buying concerns in the East have their
representatives in these sections, and
the fruit of no locality is more sought
after than that of the Yakima valley.
Some years when apple crops in the
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1904-11-01

East are short, all varieties here are
bought for Eastern shipment at prices
very remunerative to the grower. But
a year like the present, when New
York state promises to have the larg-
est yield since 1896, and apples are
being contracted there for delivery at
81 a barrel (of three bushels), it can
be seen that cheap grades of apples
would not stand the freight charges
and pay the grower anything. Not
withstanding these conditions buyers
are now here, anxious to pick up all
the fancy Spizenbergs at 81 a box
(of fifty pounds or one busheD, and
to pay rs cents to 81 for choice varie-
ties, including the Grimes Golden
Winesap, Yellow Newton, Pippin,
White Winter Pearmain, Jonathan,
Willow Twig and Rome Beauty.
Trees come to bearing much earlier
than in the East, yielding fair crop
at five years and a good revenue at
The ranch. [volume] (Seattle, Wash.) 1902-1914, 1904-11-01

it brings an annual rental of $40 to $15
an acre, but the usual custom is a
crop rental with one-half to three
fifths of the hay in the stack for the
land owner. This makes the receipts
very much greater than on the cash
basis.
About $500 acres of Yakima valley
irrigated lands are devoted to hops.
The average yield is about 100
pounds per acre, though some well
cultivated fields run as high as 200
to 5000 pounds.
The total cost of production is be-
tween 7c and SC a pound for cured
hops in the bale, &c being the cost OF
picking. The total yield of Yakima
county this year will be about four
million pounds, or about one-half the
entire hop crop of the state. New

THE TOWN OF PROSSER

The hop louise and mildew which
are so ruinous to the crop in other
countries, are never a serious trouble
in Yakima county. A few days of
the warm, dry weather in summer lit
orally cooks the aphis and owing to
irrigation does not hurt the crop but
aids it's growth.
The quality of Yakima County hops
is equal to the best produced in Am
erica, and the yield per acre is far
heavier than in any other district,
being more than double the average
yield in New York. Hence it is that
many hop growers have come to Yak
ina from New York, and they assert
that it is only a question of time I'M
til a great percentage of hops grown
on this continent will be raised in the
Yakima valley. because nowhere else
are the conditions so ideal for this
profitable branch of farming.
Prices this year are very good, many
crops having been sold at rs cents a
pound and some crops several cents

Mr.. E. F. Benson: You wanted us to
forty acre place. You sold 1T to
us land in April 1885, for $500
One hundred and fifty dollars was all the
money we had, and this we paid you on the
land.
We had two little horses, an old wagon
and one COW, and that was everything we
had to start with. We cleared and put in
twenty of alfalfa the first year and
got enough hay that year to feed our stock
We have raised hay melons and potatoes
and kept few and hens and some
be's. The most money per acre has been
realized from watermelons. For the past
five years. we have averaged about ten acres
year, and have realized from $50 to $3.50
an each year.
Our last years receipts is a fair sample
of all. We sold for cash, products as
follows:
From 16 acres of alfalfa ..... 100000
From 10 acres of wheat hay ..... 172.4O
From acres of watermelons 334.60
From acre of potatoes ........... 1900
We sold dry cows and l hog for $500
Total cash receipts ......... $1,636.50
Besides the above had hay to feed
four horses, four head of cattle; potatoes
to plant one and one-quarter acres and
plenty to supply family and help.
This year we will do better, have
a larger acreage of melons and potatoes, and
they are looking fine
We have a nice orchard of los apple
trees, 210 Bartlett pears, rs Bing cherries
and berries of all kinds also and
shrubbery, and good ten-room house COM
fortably furnished.
We have two fve-year-old horses worth
$3.50, two other horses worth 5000, two good
wagons moving machine, rake and all
necessary farm tools.
We have done all of our own work except
about 500 a year, which we have paid for
labor during haying the past three years.
We have paid for ranch and all the
improvements and stock upon it, and have
had a good, comfortable living besides and
laid up little money, and have made it all
from this place
Our place is not for sale at any reason
able price. An offer of $3.50 or $500 an
acre would be no temptation-A M Camp
