smaller places and sold from six to eight dollars barrel when growers received here S1.00 and Sf.5o | barrel.
 W hat We are after now k to give the consumer of our fruit more of it for his money and the Speeulater down there less. In other words we would like to even II up all along the line. We are growing apples for the money there is in 1t, and if we pick out one box of fancy apples out ot seven or eight boxes and pack as we are advised, nothing else, what are We going to do With the other five or six boxes2 l hey say We must not offer any thing but the very best in order to build up a good reputation. A good reputation IS all right q wish 1 had one), but If 1t cost more than you are able to get out of It l fail to see where you are benefited. You may live on reputation for q while but there must be some profit somewhere along the line to keep the wolf from tile door.
 It is true that We ship apples which arrive at destination in bad shape, and early in the season many of them will rot ii they are not disposed of at once. The weather being warm and the apples green they will not hold up, l care not how careful you may be in cu11ing and pack ing.
 It seems to me to be slow Way to build up d good reputa- ton to insert Ill the columns of a paper with as large circulation as The Springdale News, ex- tending as It does over an area of thousands of miles and being read by thousands of people, to say that We are shipping rotten apples. WI hat has been written and said recently about spraying and rotten apples would lead one to believe that We were out of the apple belt and had nothing to fall back on but coal, zinc. oil, and gas. It should be remember ed that the past two seasons have been very wet ones Tn Ar kansas and wet weather IS very hard on growing apples. Just give LIS the same seasons which We had few years back and we will show you some smooth and perfect apples. Of course we have had quite good many good apples the past two years but they were mostly from young trees. l can remember when we got our best apples from old trees, and l have no reason to be- lieve that 1t will not be so again when we have a favorable season.

Not content with sim- ply defeating the bill the vote by which 1t was defeated was recon sidered and that motion lad on the table, which kills 1t too dead for resurrection.
 Tuesday the senate amended the house 2-cent passenger rate bill, providing that 1t take effect, sixty days after passage. The house did not think this was ex- plieit enough so they adopted an amendment making 1t take effect April 1. The measure will doubtless be finally passed in this form. Wednesday morn ing the house receded from Its action in amending the bill and concurred in the senate amend ment, so the bill only awaits the signature of the governor wher 1t will become a law sixty days after its passage.
 The members of the house and senate voted Tuesday for United States Senator and met Wednes- dap in joint session to declare the result. Davis received Is votes, Clifton K. Breckenridge 1, and John I. Worthington ;, The Republican members voted fol Worthington and Representative Balch, of Pulaski, voted fol Breckenridge.
