GREAT FRUIT DISPLY.
Merchants Will Assist i'm Yakima
Fruit Day.

Secretary Zuppann of the public
ity committee, and Edward Remy,
representing the state fair
board, visited every business house
in the city Monday soliciting them to
make creditable displays of Yakima
fruit during fair week. If anyone
was overlooked in the canvas it was
unintentional, for these enthusiastic
gentlemen are bent on showing
strangers in the city during fair
week something probably never be-
fore attempted in any fruit growing
district in the country.
1t is hoped that every available
display window in the city will be
either dressed out in full or credit
ably adorned with the choicest fruit
that he Yakima valley produces. If
this is done the visitors will receive
an impression regarding the re-
sources of this irrigated section that
will be lasting and conducive to great
good from an advertising point OF
view.

Value of a Fruit Farm.

The Toppenish Review publishes
an interesting story illustrating the
possibilities of fruit growing in that
rich valley of the Yakima, says the
Seattle Post-1ntelligencer. The edi-
tor went out in the country to inter-
view some of his subscribers and note
the development under irrigation.
He found one fruit farm of 1903
acres, estimated to be worth more
than 100000 The place was the
original homestead of couple, now
growing old. The man and his wife
located there forty years ago. Then
the land had no money value It
was desert, and did not produce
anything until vegetation was hur-
ried along by the application of wat
err from an irrigation canal
That Yakima valley fruit farm
represents only portion of the
wealth, accumulated in the past forty
years, from the products of the soil.
The owner has another alfalfa farm
and a fine city residence. He is a.
steady-going old farmer, having none
of the gambling, get-rich-quick quail
tiles of modern financiers. He took
up his homestead in the early DAYS
when land was plentiful and settlers
few in number. He had to endure
hardships and privations the same
as other frontier settlers. That his
places are worth sc much money to-
day is due to the growth and devel-
opment of the country In that
work the family, now wealthy, TOOK
an active part.
A fruit farm grows in value while
its owner sleeps. The trees increase
in size year after year, and their
Droductiveness does not diminish for
many years after planting. There
are great opportunities open for
young men who will take the lands
and develop them into money pro-
ducing orchards of the future. 1t
is easy to avoid the mistakes of 9TH
ers by keeping pa.e with the agri-
cultural world in reading the publ
cations devoted to those subjects.
Or,hardists need cot waste time,
money and land in planting worth
less varieties of fruits when a little
information may he obtained any
where for the asking. The land
awaits the hand of man to make it
produce larger and greater crops to
supply the people of the world with
food. Here is one of the passing
opportunities for the young men of
today.

High Hon Prices.

The Waterville Times contains a
report of hop sales and a prophecy
for hop prices in New York which
should open the eyes of local people.
The Times states as follows:
1.-THE Cobleskill Times, Aug. 1.
says: Howard Shafer & Co. purchas-
ed of Eugene Esmay of Seward "a
bales of hops at 13A cents last
week and Charles Karker's crop OF
2S bales IA cents. These are the
first sales of impor lance reported in
several mornings and as far as we
can learn clean up the last important
holdings in this section. The grow
ing crop has improved with the fine
weather we have been having. The
wind storm last week did consider
able damage. A careful estimate
places the crop fully one-third short
of last year. The yield promises to
be OF good quality and If present in
dications and reports of the crop
continue the price will probably start
for new hops around 90 cents"

ADVICE TO THE

l. Spray you apples and pears
when the blossom has four-fifths
fallen approximately Spray each
variety without reference to the
time of spraying another. Use coarse
nozzle with crook.

Thinning.
Thin as early as possible after de-
termining the strongest fruit on the
spur. Thin each tree whether neavi-
ly loaded or light to one apple on
each spur and on trees over Z years
old thin between, leaving apples
never closer than 10 inches. There
is no loss by so thinning, but a great
gain. A large apple fills the same
place as 3 or small ones and sells
more readily and for a much better
price than small one
Picking.
/. Pick apples as soon as they
have reached their proper state of
maturity. This can readily be de-
termined by examining the seeds.
Apples are at the proper state for
picking when the seeds have become
entirely brown and from the apex
tpoint) end of the seed has become
about one-third black. On fall APP
pies do not wait longer for color.
Fruit spurs are your next year
crop. Do not pull them on in thin
ming or picking.

Great Demand for Nurses Is Respon.
siblc for the Opening of
the School.

Plans are being laid by the sisters
of st. Elizabeth hospital to open in
this city training school for nurs-
es. This is the first attempt ever
made to start a school of this kind,
and the great demand which is
made for the nurses furnishes be-
lief that it will be most successful.
Young ladies from 10 to 23 years
of age will be given training. The
sisters will have charge of the train
ing work and will give a most
thorough and systematic system Of
study. Physicians of the city will
be asked to cooperate in the work
and will be requested to give lee
lures at various times for the bene-
fit of the nurses.
1t is believed that most systematic
work can be carried on here and that
the training will be very efficien-.
The sisters at st. Elizabeth's have
secured wide reputation for their
care and treatment of those coming
to the hospital.
Those who desire further particu-

may receive them by calling on the

be necessary to become a sister to
