The natives, however, held the single
rifle, the only means of protection of the
white men, in great awe, and while they
remained in possession of it their lives
were comparatively SAFE
Their peace; however, was short-lived,

One of the men, Niessen, received an

while he lay insensible on the ground

upon him and crushed three of his toes.

THE KEEPING OF APPLES.
The Market Now Demands a Full
Supply All the Year
Around.

Apple storage has become one of the
most important features of the fruit in
dustry. The demand for apples has in
creased greatly, and to meet the demand
large areas have been devoted to or
chards in sections where conditions do
not favor ease in holding or length Of
keeping, says the New York Agricul-
tural Experiment Station Bulletin. The
necessity of disposing of this fruit
quickly tends to overstock the market
in the fall and early winter, and fire.
quently to reduce prices far below the
limit of profitable handling. According
ly, the ability to hold part of the crop
until the perishable surplus has been dis
posed of often means higher prices,
easier sales and better accommodation
to the public.
Consumers are also gradually but
surely learning discrimination and de-
manding not only good apples, but an
ample supply of them throughout nearly
the entire year. 1t is possible, by some
system of storage, to avoid the glutted
market and to hold the crops with little
loss for sale late in the season, and
make good profits from the practice; but,
like all farm and orchard operations Of
the present time, apple storage must
receive careful attention to insure sue
cess.
The grower or buyer must learn what
varieties are suitable for storage, what
conditions must be provided to secure
the best and most economical manage
ment of the stored fruit, and at what
time and under what conditions the diff
ferent varieties must be put on the mar
ket. Apples are exceedingly variable in
length of keeping. Early harvest often
becomes too ripe and mealy for choice
eating, while still upon the tree; while
schodack, in ordinary storage, may keep
we'll until midsummer of the next year.
They also vary in behavior in storage,
some varieties scalding, shrinking, los
ing flavor and becoming dull colored and
unattractive, while others, after six
months keeping, come out smooth,
bright, fragrant and crisp. These vari-
ations in behavior are to great extent
varietal characteristics; yet the same
variety grown upon sand or upon clay
grown in the north or in the SOUTH
grown in a wet season or dry one, may
show very striking differences.
The problem Of selecting varieties and
storing them properly is therefore a
complex one, and requires careful study.
The efficiency of the different systems Of
storage differ greatly with different va
rieties, but in general storage with low
temperature secured by the use of ice ex-
tends the keeping period from one to four
months beyond the limit in ordinary
storage, and chemical cold storage pro-
longs the life of the variety at least half
month-often much longer-beyond
the life under ice.
