One evidence of the importance which the
experts of the federal government attach to
the soil Of Frederick county as being SUI
peror for apple culture is the fact that the
United States Agricultural Department will
begin early in the spring to prepare about
forty acres of Senator S. l.. Lupton's farm
ing land for the model orchard of the
United States.' The ground Is now being
cleared and put into shape for this purpose.
AS illustrative of the superior quality and
flavor of the Frederick county apple It may
be said that the packers label their pur-
chases as Frederick County York I'm
perials," Frederick County Ben Davises,"
or whatever the variety of the apple may
be- whereas with the products of other To-
calities the barrels merely bear the stamp
York Imperial Ben Davis" etc.
1t is stated that few of the Frederick
county apples find market in our home
cities, although some of the inferior grades
or seconds, are sold in this country. The
great majority of the fruit is exported to
England and the continent, where 1t COM
mands a top price, ana what would in this
country be considered a prohibitive price,
$40 per barrel being by no means an infre-
quent price for the Virginia fruit. For
many years the apple growers of Abe
marie county, which is the valley of Vir-
ginia, supplied all the apples for the table
of the late Queen Victoria and the members
of her royal household, and now King Ed
ward eats the same variety of fruit widely
known as Albemarle pippins.

there are at least 100000 bearing apple trees
now in the county of Frederick and as
many more growing, so that the orchards
now planted give the guarantee that the
yield will increase at the rate of 1000 bar
rels every two years for the next ten years.
In other words, even if no more trees are
planted for the next decade, the yield at the
end of that period will be $4,000 barrels, or
about two and one-half million bushels a
year.

that the shipments of apples from Fred
erick county alone this fall will amount to-,
if not exceed. 100000 barrels. or nearly
100000 bushels, which means the distrf-
button of 100000 to the apple growers be-
yond the cost of picking and packing.
What is true in Frederick county Is also
the case in nearly all the other counties
composing the valley of Virginia, and in

ion, although the soil in those places has

has recently had its name shortened and

being that the inhabitants there have dis
covered a more profitable way Of disposing
of their apples than by baking them up into

together, would amount to $40 per acre for
