HORTICULTURE
BY r. W ALDEN

The following inquiry comes from
one of the valued patrons of The Ranch:
please tell us through the medium
of The Ranch as to the keeping proper
ties of the WAGNER apple, also its COM
mercial value. We hear some praising
it. while others condemn it as a keeper
and claim for it value only for cider
and canning purposes. We hear of
few orchardists who are planting this
apple, while we know of others who
have trees just in bearing who expect
to top-graft them to Winesap."

swer to the above inquiries than to
quote from Apples of New York."
which I consider the best book ever
published in giving correct views con-
corning the apple: Wagner at it's
best is an apple of superior excellence.
The color is a beautiful bright red with
some contrasting pale yellow; 1t has
fine texture, high flavor and excellent
quality. It is very desirable for culin-
airy uses, but is especially esteemed for
dessert. 1t is in season about with
Tompkin's King, or from October to
February. Yet often some portion Of the
fruit may be kept in ordinary storage

In our last issue I presented some ex-
tracts from Prof. s. w. Fletcher, of the
Michigan Agricultural college on the
Spencer Seedless Apple" Prof Fetch
er has written two articles for the Rural
New Yorker, one deals with what he
saw at the home Of Mr.. Spencer, and
the other with the interviews he had

the seedless apple which the company
is selling to the fruit growers of the
country, or at least trying to sell. I
gave a resume of his first article but
the second I give entire, as it appears
in the Rural New Yorker of March 10:
Spencer, as recorded on page 147, l In
terviewed a number of prominent fruit
growers at Grand Junction and else
herewith what I learned. The Spencer
Seedless Apple company was organized
with great enthusiasm some four years
that It was organized with a capital
stock Of 100000, divided into as many
shares with par value. Of 81 each" 1
were held by j. F. Spencer and another
man; the remainder were scattered.
mostly among the fruit growers and
Of fnd Of soG aS of
Junction were interested in the enter
prise at that time. was told that dur
ing the first year the shares were sold
for to Is cents or whereabouts. But
about year after the organiza ton OF
the company, some of the Grand juno
ton people apparently went Wild over
the proposition. Shares sold for $1.25
then. During the past two years, how
ever the excitement has cbbed most de-
cidedly. I was Informed that shares
are being advertised now in Grand
Junction papers for Is cents or less. In
short, in appears that the Spencer Seed
less Apple company has had boom of
all passed now.

is December, or, In cold storage, ABOUT
February 1st. 1t does not stand heat
we'll before going into storage and is
quite apt to scald toward the close of
the season, particularly If not well col
ored. After scalding it goes down
quickly. often there is some loss from
drops, especially if the crop is not
picked as soon as 1t is we'll colored, and
many times there is a rather high per-
centage of loss in fruit that is unmar-
ketable because it Is understood or mis-
shapen. 1t is quite vigorous at first,
but as it advances in maturity 1t usu-
ally becomes quite a weak grower, with
branches full Of fruit spurs. 1t comes
into bearing at an early age and so
long as it remains healthy it Is a re-
liable cropper, yielding moderate to
rather heavy crops biennially or nearly
annually. In many cases 1t overbears,
so that the fruit does not all develop
properly in size and color. Under IA
vorable conditions the crop Is pretty
uniform in size, color and quality. The
tree is often short lived, but some re-
port that it is longer lived when top
worked upon harder and more vigor-
Gus stock, such as Northern Spy, Bald
win and Talman Sweet. Although 1t
was introduced about a half century
ago and it Is now sufficiently we'll
known so that It may perhaps be re-
garded as a standard market variety,
yet it has not established itself to any
considerable extent in the commercial
orchards Of this state and Is not being
extensively planted"
y
After the above description Of the
WAGNER it would be useless for me tc
express my opinion as to the advisable
ity Of planting this apple for CONNER
cial purposes. And this Is especially so
inasmuch as I do not grow it in my
orchards. Some fine specimens Of the
WAGNER were sent from Yakima coun-
ty to me at the Lewis and Clark fair at
Portland. I do not call to mind who
sent them. Edward Remy, Of that
county, raises this apple and spoke very
highly Of it some years ago. It would
be we'll for people In that county to
consult him with regard to this apple.
+
It should be borne In mind that an
apple that does indifferent1y well in the
state of New York may do much better
in the state Of Washington, and like
wise the reverse may be true. Nothing
in fruit growing is more important than
the fact that we must study the adapt
ability Of each kind Of fruit to each To-
cality. The same apple does not do
equally we'll in all parts of Washing
ton. Some apples do better on the east
side of the Cascade range than they do
on the west side. But the reverse is
notably true. The Northern Spy, Bald
win and Thompkins King are much
better for commercial purposes when
raised on the west side The only safe
way to settle such questions is to try
the varieties.

THE INTENT OF THE HEART.

There Is comfort and inspiration
IN the thought that God estimates us
as We are when We stand upon the
plane Of our best and braVest. We
are sadly conscious that We do not
always stand upon that plane. We
know that We decline from it very,
very often. But, nevertheless, to at
tain the level of our best is what we
are most truly and constantly seek
Ing. That is the abiding motive and
desire Of every conSeCrated life; and
II Is BY that controlling purpose that
We are judged.
Many a day seems to US wasted,
and worse than wasted, because it
records a distinct failure to be and
DO our best. But was the day
xilhully misspent? That is the cru
eial question. We're we trying to
climb when we slipped and fell! God
makes the spirit and motive OF an
act decisive. 1t is by intention, and
not by performance, that He judges
Us. So long as the right motive
aeides and controls, the specific fall
ure to accomplish our best does not
anhul the Divine appraisal Of what
We really are.--Zion's Herald.

Washington, Jan 22.-The interstate commerce commission in an opinion by Commissioner Harlan, made public to- day, holds that men employed by newspapers to sort newspapers on spe-. cial trains may not lawfully be grant, ed free transportation.
 The case arose as a result of the pe- tition of a number of New York news papers and the New York. New EIa- ven & Hartford railroad company for a ruing. The railroad company has been furnishing the petitioning news papers two special Sunday morning trains to carry Sunday editions to va rious points along the road, Springfield being the final destination of one train, and Boston the other.
 The railroad has charged fifty cents for each 100 pounds of newspapers with free transportation of the caretakers, but under the rate law discontinued the free transportation. The papers pro- tested, citing a former tariff circular of the commission which held the commits sion does not construe the law as pre-. venting any carrier from giving neces- sary free transportation to a person travelling over it's line to attend to the business of a carrier This circular, the decision holds. has no relation to the present inquiry.

 New York, Jan. 22.-American refu- gees from Kingston, Jamaica, arriving here to-day on board the steamer Prinz Eitel Freiderich, which sailed from the stricken city on Thursday afternoon last, the third day after the earthquake, we're unanimous in con- demnlng what they termed the "inac- tivity and utter inefficiency'' of the English authorities on the island dur- ing the first days following the dis aster. For three days, or up to the day the Prinz Eitel Freiderich sailed, there was no semblance of order and nothing definite done in the matter of relieving the sufferings of many of the wounded
 It was asserted that men and wom- en who sought shelter on board the British steamship Port Kingston, which was chartered by Sir Alfred Jones' party, from England, were put ashore and that the plea of the Amer ioan refugees that the women of their party be allowed at least the privilege of sleeping on the open decks of the Port Kingston was refused with great incivility." The wounded who had been taken aboard the same steamer for an asylum were put ashore the day following the earthquake (Tuesday) and were left on the rail- way wharf until cared for by the American naval authorities on Thurs day.

BIG FIRE IN RICHMoND
Breaks Out Early This Morning and
 Spreads Rapidly.

Richmond, Va, Jan. 23-The retail business section of Richmond was threatened by fire which broke out at 1:45 o'clock this morning in the Will Hams building. a large brick structure at the corner of Ninth and Cary streets. At 2:45 o'clock the flames, famed by a high wind, had spread to adjacent property and was threatening the de- struction of the handsome Chamber of Commerce building. The Southern Ex- press company's office and the Rich mond Blues armory are located in the building where the fire started. A number of large tobacco factories are located in the vicinity, and the spread of the fire in their direction caused great apprehension.
 At 2:4b o'clock this morning 1t seem- ed as if the Chamber of Commerce building would go, and the million and-a-half-d Mutual Assurance skyscraper was in great danger The Blues armory was stocked with 500,000 rounds of ammunition, which exploded and drove the crowds away from the streets surrounding the armory.
 A fireman was reported killed by a falling wall.
