J Frankfort is to be congratulated
upon the high standard which has
been reached in educational affairs
in her public schools. The year
just closed has been one of more
than usual success. The Superin-
tendent and teachers have labored
earnestly and faithfully, not only
to teach, but to show the scholars
how to put the things taught into
practical use in every day life.
They deserve the highest praise
and encouragement from the
patrons of the schools.
The audience were enthusiastic
in applause and departed highly

FARMS AND COAL MINES.

We came across an interesting fact
recently, one which was entirely new
to rs. 1t is claimed that where farm
Overlies a coal measure at Il depth or
of, say, from 100 to 200 feet and the
coal is removed. leaving network or
CALLER es and excavations under the
Farm, the productive capacity of the
land is thereby impaired to the extent
OF from $40 to $50 per acre. this be-
cause the capillary system of furnish
ing moisture to growing vegetation is
seriously interfered with and such land
in dry time suffers much more from
the effects of drought than other lands
not so treated. While this may be so
or not. the fact is believed in sutti-
GENTLY so that it really affects the
selling value of such lands 1t would
seem, admitting it as fact, that there
would be largely compensating bene-
fits in Il wet season, for it would be a
poor rule which would not work both
ways. We should be glad to get further
light on this subject.

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 dc
not favor ease in holding or length oil
keeping, says the New York Agricul-
tural Experiment Station Bulletin. The
necessity of disposing OF this frult
quickly tends to overstock the marke;
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 glutte0
market and to hold the crops with littIs
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
uariatioc oro c,,ita hIo for CT ono no |, nd
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 keer
well until midsummer Of the next year
They also vary in behavior in storage
some varieties scalding; shrinking, los
ing flavor and becoming dull Solored and
unattractive, while others. after six
months keeping, come out smooth
bright, fragrant and crisp. These vari
atiors in behavior are to great extent
varietal characteristics; yet the sans
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 {
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 hal
month-often much longer-beyont
the life under ice.
