BIG APPLE CROP.
This Years Growing Estimated to
Be About 100000 Barrels


If the apple harvest il the CONNER
cial orchards of the United States this
year We're converted into pies the army
of bakers needed to do the work would
turn out 6,250.OO0,000 of them, and
these placed side by side would make
a path of almost 915,000 miles.
The total weight of this mountain of
pastry is estimated at 9,210,000 pounds,
including 6,125,OOO,OOO pounds of -four,
lard and other ingredients used in the
popular American after-dinner dessert,
and would require 154. 166 cars. of
standard capacity to transport them
from the ovens to the consumers.
Twenty-Five million barrels, or g.,
100000 bushels, is the estimated yield
this season, according to reports receiv-
ed by Harry j. Nicely. secretary of the
national apple show at Spokane, from
$1,000 growers, operating the various
belts in the Union.
The returns show that while
droughts, excessive rains, or pests
wrought havoc in many districts in the
middle western, eastern and several
southern States, the entire crop is fully
as large as in 1907 and it is better dis
tributed. Prices also are higher than
last year. However, the domestic sup
ply is smaller than at any time since
1895. for the reason that the demand of
the export trade is heavier and in
reasing yearly.

Difficulties from Water at Panama
Shown in Report of Commission.
With an average OF 1907 men on
and appropriations made TO date of
S120, 9ti4.46 and expenditures of
SS4.5I2. 1850. both inclusive of the
original purchase price of the canal of
S40.O00,0O0, the Panama canal construc-
ton is making progress. according TO
the annual report of the isthmian canal
commission. issued in Washington the
other day. One of the significant fea-
lures of the report is the fact that it
is truly militaryesque in style. 1t makes
no guesses, but is confined to state
ments Of historical fact which cannot
be disputed or become subjects of con-
troversy
One of the interesting chapters of the
report is on the lock and dam construc-
ton IN view of the reported break in
the Gatun dam, the experience of the
commission in the construction of the
Sosa-CorOsal dam and the Gatun locks
is important at this time as illuStrat-
ing the unexpected obstacles being met
with by the army engineers in charge of
the work. 1t was found necessary TO
move the site of the SOSa- COroSal dam
when supposedly solid ground shifted.
In the former instance il became neceS
sary to move the site of the dam be
cause of the shifting of the ground
when dumping was begun. and this de
spite the fact that the plans and speci
ficatiOns showed the foundation for the
proposed dam to be a solid base Bor

is alleged to have taken place recently.
plainly indicated the presence of I'M
foreground water. but the engineers
were proceeding with the greatest con-
fidence that the difficulty could be OBJ
waited and that the bottom was sound.
In the Culebra cut division during
the past year 1905 1873 cubic yards of
earth and rock have been removed by
fifty-nine steam shOvelS. Plans to di-
vert the Chagres river. the ObiSpO riv-
er. and other streams on the east side
of the canal have been carried on in
conjunction with the work at this point
and. in addition thereto. it has been
necessary to take care of four large
landslides one of which was an inherit
ance from the old French company and
amounted to 100000 square yards.
Large excavations have also been made
at Empire City. Empire Hill. Gold Hill
and the Pedro Miguel lock site.
Sanitary conditions on the canal con-
tinue to improve from year to year and
have practically ceased to be a subject
of newspaper comment such as charac-
terized the beginning of the work.

ROADS RULE EXPRESS.
Census Inquiry Shows Railways
Are Large Holders of Carrier
Stocks.
FIX RATES BY AGREEMENTS.
Six Leading Companies Dominate in
the Package Transportation
Business.

An investigation of the express bust
ness of the United States has Just been
completed by the census bureau of the
government, which covers all phases of
that business and shows in detail the
relations of the express companies with
the railroads of the country. 1t is
shown, for instance, that the railroads
of the country own more than one
fourth of the stock of the express COM
panies and that, in turn. the express
companies own railroad stock to the
amount of more than So. 100000. which
is also a figure in excess of one-fOurth
Of their own capitalization. The con-
tracts between the companies and the
railroads are set forth as well as the
method of determining the rates
In 1907 there were thirty-fOur eX
press companies as compared with eigh-
teen in 1890. Only ten of the companies
reporting in 1890 were in existence I'M
der the same name in 1907 the remain
ing eight companies have gone out of
business. have been absorbed by other
companies or are operating under other
names. The total express mileage has
increased from 174,0J9 miles to 90, 903
miles, gain of 35.5 per cent
Companies that Dominate.
In 1907 as in 1890 the express bust
ness was dominated by the following
companies: Adams, American, Pacific
Southern, United States, and Wells,
Fargo & Co. The aforementioned leads
in the amount of mileage operated, with
the American Express Company close
second. These six leading companies
operated 92.7 per cent of the total mile
age in 1890 and S7.5 per cent in 1907.
In the number of miles covered by
express companies Texas ranks first
among the States and territories, fol
lowed, in the order named, by Illinois,
Iowa, Ohio, Pennsylvania. New York
and Kansas. The use of steamboat
lines is most extensive in Alaska,
where water routes furnish practically
the only facilities for transportation. IN
Maine. New York, Washington and
Michigan the stea mboat mileage is also
large Electric roads are used by the
express companies in only twenty
States. Seventy-two per cent of the
total mileage by electric roads is in
Ohio, New York and California. In
only fifteen States are stage lines still
used by express companies, and SS.T
per cent of the mileage of such lines
is in the " estern States principally
California and Nevada.
Receipts and Expenditures.
The total receipts of all the express
companies amount to S12S.117,1 76 of
which 81 per cent is receipts from OPP
GRAFTON and 8 per cent receipts from
other sources. Over 80 per cent of the
total receipts represents the receipts
of the six leading companies. Two i'm
portant items of expense in the express
business are the amounts paid to steam
roads and the salaries and wages,
which in 1907 were S5631S.349 and
$39, 531, 754, respectively. and together
constituted, as in 1890, over so per cent
of the reported operating expenses.

said, ''the body is a substance composed
of chemicals and these chemicals are at
the mercy of the emotions. Anger. hatred
and sorrow poison the fluids of the body,
while love, cheerfulness and happiness

Work of Organized Charity

The Charity Organization Society,
which operates in many different cities
from headquarters in New York. reports
that in the past year it carried 5,111
families at New York. compared to 1886
families the year before. 1t is able to say
that it has not refused help to any fam
lily in need with notice. The report says
that the naturalization of social reform
movements is going on rapidly, and that
the organized Pittsburg survey, including
the typhoid fever investigation, the study
of San Francisco relief work. of working
mems insurance and of the placing out of
children, are some of the evidences of this
new spirit.
