Seedless Apple Has No Fruit Value.
ColdwalI (Idaho) Rural

"Most of our readers have studied the
article relative to the seedless apple.
This tree will not be for sale for two
years from this spring, when the de-
mand will probably exceed anything
heretofore known for nursery stock.
The company has large orchard and
nursey at Lees Summit, Mo, and this
fall will set out few million more trees.
The apple was exhibited at the st. Louis
Fair and will also he exhibited at the
Portland Exposition. We are in hopes
to have one on view at the Gazette office
this fall, although as yet they are as
scarce as Queen bees. ."-Kendrick Gaz-
cite.
That "seedless APPLE" Brother Mac.
Intosh, has been getting a whole lot Of
free advertising Of late, and good deal
of it is not very tiattering either. Here,
for example, is one from prominent
horticultural journal, under the cap
tain Seedless Apples in History"
"Surely it is to the shortness OF the
pubIic's memory that gives lakirs and
their gratis life and profit. Fifteen
years ago, the press was nearly as full OF
the seedless apple as it Is today. AT
that time Prof. l.. II. Bailey puncturrd
the claims of its promoters by saying
at appears to possess no value aside
from its curiosity"
Ii. Il. Van Deman, then United States
Pomologist, said of it; "My opinion ls
that the variety is practically worthless
as fruit, bu. is quite interesting as a
curiosity. Anyone who plants trees OF
this variety will be disappointed except
in having their curiosity satisfied.
Going further back it is found referred
to in this country in 1868, '69 and 10,
Then taking a long look back a seedless
and coreless apple is found described by
French horticulturist, Lelectler, in
1923. Surely ii the great possibilities OF
the fruit claimed by its present discover
ers were really there, they would have
asserted themselves Tonga II seed

In addition to the above, several other
agricultural papers and fruit experts
have exploited the "seedless, +" and they
have practically all of them said

of seeing sort Of freak curiosity, Of lit
tie or no practical value, and at best lar
below, in size and quantity, many well
tested and popular apples of today. IT'S
all right to give the "seedess" trial,

is to go slow on it as a financial ven

Why Suffer From RheumatiSmp

Why suffer from rheumatism when
one application of Chamberlain's Pain
Balm will relieve the pain? The quick
relief which this liniment affords
makes rest and sleep possible, and that
alone is worth many times its cost
Many who have used it hoping only
for short relief from suffering have
been happily surprised to find that after
awhile the relief became permanent.

COMPROMISE IN
INSURANCE CASE
EDWARDs-WooD COMPANY THE

Fargo, n. D., March 27.-The long-fought In
surance case in the United States court resulted
in a compromise verdict. The London, Liverpool
& Globe Insurance company was sued by the
defunct Farmers Elevator company of Denbigh
for losses on the building and grain. The Ed
wards-WOod Commission company was the mort
gagee of the elevator company and the interest.
ed party in the case. --.-
It was claimed there was $4,000 worth Of
grain in the elevator at the time. The jury
held the insurance company for it's share Of the
losses ON the building. but not for the loss on
the grain. Two other companies carried tnsur-
ance on the building and grain and cases will fol-
low. The action was tried at the term at
Grand Forks and resulted in a disagreement. 1t
is asserted that much OF the wheat was saved
and some of it sold for milling and some for
seed. Judge Morris Of Duluth presided at the
hearing in the absence Of Judge Amidon, who Is
in Kansas City. -
Fargoans will soon get the long promised re-
rating ond reduction in insurance rates. The
conditions In this city were SO bad two years
ago that the underwriters demanded several i'm
provements-a paid fire department.. new four
teen-inch mains run thru the business district,
and a big pump at the waterworks. All the re-
quirements have been met except the pump. and
that is on the way from the factory. As soon
as it is in operation it Is promised that the
rerating will be made.
This city is headquarters for the new special
agent Of the land district of North Dakota and
all Of South Dakota except the Black
Hills. The new district is the result of the di-
vision OF the United States into q number of
special districts for the better convenience Of the
examiners. Special Agent McEniry. who will
have charge here, has established his h~eadquar-
| tiers.
The Fargo Gun club has had a resurrection
after being dormant for a year. New traps have

A new enterprise for Fargo has been secured
in the Arthur ~acetylene lighting plant, which
manufactures lamps for the smaller towns. The
plant has been in operation in Minnesota and will
be moved here this week. Fifteen men are en-
ployed.
