WESTERN FRUIT IN THE EAST
Eastern Fruit Growers Cannot Com
pete With Western Fruit

1.-THE average farmer east of In
diana spends money enough every
five years for commercial fertilizers
to buy farm in the Pacific North
west,' said C. L. Smith, of Spokane,
industrial agent for the Inland EN-
pire Railway company, who has re-
turned from an extended trip
throughout the eastern states, where
he attended number of farmers
and horticultural conventions and
similar meetings.
@'They have carried on farming in
the east in such way as to destroy
the fertility of the SOIL" states Mr..
Smith 1.-THE annual cost of fertiliz-
ers per acre there is greater than the
annual rental of land here, while the
average product is not more than
one half as large as the western pro-
duct.
81 noticed one very gratifying fact
in New York which fairly seems to
paralyze the New Workers and that
is the fact that our Washington ap-
pies sell in the New York market for
three times as much as their own ap-
ples bring. This remarkable fact is
due to the superior quality of our
Washington apples. The demand
for Washington apples is great. no
ticed in particular the Yakima and
Wenatchee apples.
Many Pests in Orchards.
This section of the country is not
alone the stamping ground if the OBJ
noxious insects which infest our
shade and fruit trees. In New Jer-
sey, New York -ald Consecties.t- the
trees are much worse infested with
these insects than here. One of the
most serious obstacles in combating
these pests there is found in the fact
that OLD orcharl trees so and 60
years old are very difficult to treat
Another reason for the ravages of
the scale, in particular, is due to the
gardens around the villages where
they originally had collections Of
various kinds of fruit The owners
of these gardens have made no at
tempt to centrol the pest and the
gardens have become breeding
places.
Il found very few localities in the
east where they are planting new or
chards. Another fact which surprised
me was the discovery that in the On
tario section of New York the bulk Of
their berries, apples, peaches and
pears find their way to the dryer and
canning factory instead of being
shipped fresh. This I found to be
largely due to the fact that the quail
ity of their fresh fruit is so inferior
to that of the western fruits that
they have to be sold at a much lower
price, discouraging growers from
shipping"

LETTER TO w. d. BAILEY,
Americas, Georgia.

Dear Sir: Here's a tale with a
point to it. Florida is the hardest
state in the Union for paint
Gilmore & Davis Co, Tallahassee
Florida, think they know what paint
can do in their climate; they've been
painting for 35 years, Devoe ten
years; and they say Deyoe wears 10
years-their words are: Buildings
we painted Deyoe 10 years ago are in
good condition of paint today"
They also say lead-and-oil wears
only one year there-Devoe ten years !,
Ten years is long lifetime for
paint in Florida-longer than 20 in
Maine. We don't dare say either is
true as a general fact in those States;
but there are general instances.
If we should call the cost of Devoe
in Florida half the usual cost of
paint, it would be too much we sup
pose it's about one-third; there is so
much trash there-the costliest paint
S the worst, and the worst is the cost
lest everywhere. Yours truly,

One hundred and forty bales cot
ton made up yesterdays receipts at
Americas warehouses, a very good
days business indeed for the season.
Fridays receipts were 50 bales, and
alerady there is a total of more than
200 new bales to our credit here.
Yesterdays receipts-140 bales
was a trine larger than expected, in
view of the rainy days of the past
week, which delayed picking.
Warehousemen were well pleased
with the days business.
The new cotton is of excellent quail
ity and readily brings thirteen cents
in Americus. The greater portion of
that brought in yesterday sold for 10
cents, a splendid price which Melted
the fortunate owner SOS for 500
pound bale.
All of yesterdays bales were sold
one buyer alone taking 70 bales.
Even this number of bales, at the
top notch price, put more than $4,000
of new cotton money in circulation in
| Americas.
The cotton season thus opens aus
piciously, and a week hence the fleecy
tide will be rolling high. A fair es-
| innate for this week will be 1 200 tC
500 bales, provided the weather re.
mains fair and farmers have {
