THE sEEDLEss APPLE.
The Newest Thing Out In
The Fruit Line.

The new seedless apple devel-
oped by John F, Spencer, OF
Grand Junction, Col, bids fair IL
have more revolutionary effect
upon the apple growing interests
Of the country than even the
seedless orange upon the orange
interests. The effect will be
more revolutionary for the res-
son that the apple interests are
larger than the orange interests,
and that the market for both ap-
pies and apple trees are larger.
Apples can be grown in any
country, oranges are grown only
in the tropics; apples might well
be called necessities, while or
anges are Injuries. There are
barrels of apples sold where one
orange is sold.
This wide extent of the inter-
ests affected makes the develop
ment of the new apple the most
important thing that has taken
place in the fruit growing world
for many years, and when it is
known that seedless apple nur-
series have been established in
Utah, Idaho, California, Nilsson
ri, Michigan, New York, New
Jersey, Delaware, Pennsylvania
and Canada, in addition to the
home nursery at Grand Junction,
Colorado, all within few weeks,

apple is being taken up can be

should not be regarded as some
thing new or unusual, for the socIe-

year after year, as there are yet
12 100000 children and youth in
our country who have not been en-
rolled in any Sunday school; a
number larger than allthe standing
armies Of Europe combined, we can
readily see how greatly this work
should be enlarged.
2. Many communities where
these schools were organized, will
not be able to support churches for
years to come. This is all the
greater reason why they should
now have good Sunday scho ,ls.
3. In perfect loyalty to the
churches, the society provides for
the children who are not reached
by any other agency. Nothing has
been found which takes the place of
Bible instruction, for establishing
noble principles in the minds of the
young and uplifting the true stand.

nothing to sustain the worm,
even though il may be hatched.
The trees are also blossomless,
and this makes the trees undam-
ageable in cold weather. Late
frosts leave the seedleS-s apples
still bearing, although the ordi.

side them may be barren. This
has been proven in Or. Spencer's
orchard at Grand Julclion.
The trees have hard, smooth

VESSELS WITH BAD NAMES
Some in the British Navy That Seem
Destined to Meet with
Disaster

If one should be so bold as to
characterize the superstitiOus
sailor as silly he would at once de
clare that there is sufficient reason
for his belief. and would proceed
to prove that war vessels named
after stinging and venOmOus
things have been unlucky, and that
the country should not be so indif
ferent 10 the men who follow "a
life on the ocean wave as to or
ganizc mosquito feet, says the
Navy League Journal.
That Snake is regarded as an I'M
fortunate name for vessel is
shown by the fact that two of that
name have been lost, one in 1871
ad the other in 1S47 but no vessel
bearing that name is known to eX-
list now Serpent, which is only a
substitute name for Snake, is an
unlucky one also, for the one
wrecked in 1892 was the fourth
British war vessel Of that name to
meet the same fate. Viper has
been an unlucky name in the Brit
ish navy. The first one was wrecked
in 1880, but the admiralty would
not swerye, and so kept the name
on the list. each vessel meeting its
doom. and the fourth was lost only
recently. The French navy has also
been unlucky with vessels SO nam
ed. The Viper, used in the British
service after she became a prize
from the French, was lost in 1893.
The second was lost a year later,
the third in 1897, and the fourth
was recently lost in a collision off
Guernsey.
The Cobra, another British war
vessel, was lost recently at the
same time as the Viper. Among
other vessels similarly named and
which met fates other than in bat
tie are the Rattlesnake, in 1881;
the Alligator, in 1882; the CrocO-
die, in 1884; the Adder, in 1916;
three Lizards, two Dragons and
one Basilisk. All of these were Of
the British navy. The list could
be made larger by citing the rec
ords Of other navies.
The NOrsemen, who were so fond
of naming their vessels against the
laws of superstition and using hid
eous heads of dragons and reptiles
on their high prOws, were less un-
fortunate, and these did not meet
with frequent disasters. They did
have belief, however, that it was
and a sacrilege to select
such name as did Lord Dunrayen
for his first yacht to challenge for
the Americas cup, the Valkyrie.
And this belief was strengthened
when she was sunk by the Satan
tia. The second challenger, with
the same name, gave trouble, and
she was broken up after only
short existence.

To the public.

About two years ago new gro
cerv store opened up 10 the Odd
Fellow 5 building, under the name
of NJ. e. Edmundsou, with the
choicest groceries, fruits aud vege-
tables. We have been able, by
liberal patronage of appreciative
customers to make both ends meet.
To them we return our sincere
thanks and promise to do our very
best in the future 10 retain their
confidence.
The permanent success OF any
business depends upon the conn
dence and good'opinlon OF the pub
lie. No business can succeed that
makes dissatisfied customers. We
work and plan to have all goods
that we sell gIi e absolute satlstac
ton in quality and price.
Now, Just a word to those who
voluntarily promised us at least a
share of their patronage. While
we have been somewhat disappolnt-
ed in not having the pleasure OF
adding your names 70 our list OF
customers, we are still anxious to
secure your grocery patronage.
It's true our stock is small, but it
is always good and is kept clean
and up-lo date, because we order
fresh groceries every week to re.
place reduced stock. Come 10 and
inspect our goods and our mode of
doing business, and if you are sat-
is6ed we will certainly appreciate |
your patronage.
We also extend cordial invita-
ton to our country friends, many of
whom perhaps will learn for the
first time, on seeing this advertise
ment, that we are in the grocery |
business. Give us a trial order and
we will guarantee to please you.
Fair prices, pure groceries, cour.
teous treatment, straightforward
dealing and prompt delivery is the
plan we have adopted for this store.
Phone US - either phone - and
we will gladly supply your wants.
Tom Edmundson can always be
found behind the counter ready to
wait on the trade. Claud Sisk,
clerk. would be glad to have all his
friends call also.
