TO TICKLE ROYAL PALATE
Twenty Boxes of Oregon Apples
Started on Their Way to
European Rulers.

Twenty boxes of Oregon apples We're
started on their way to four European
rulers by the Portland Commercial club
a few days ago. They will be detained
in New York City for one week, during
which time they will be on exhibition
at Macey's department store, in order
to let the people of the America ME-
tropolis see what kind of fruit can be
raised out west. In the meantime the
express company will find out the spe-
cific address of the king of Great Brit
ain, the president CT France, the en-
peror of Germany and the car Of Rus
STA, in order that there may be no
hitch in the delivery to the respec-
tive court taSters, who will probably
examine each box to make sure there is
no bomb placed in it on the way.
The apples are Spitzenbergs and
NewtOwn PipDins, and the boxes are
mere ordinary affairs, constructed of
Oregon spruce, which being a white
and tasteless wood, will impart no for
eign flavor to the fruit
The express charge on the apples is
over 500, or IS a box. The value of the
apples in Portland is estimated at 81 a
box which is away beyond the price
paid for apples by the average Portland
housewife. The fruit. however, has
been carefully selected from boxes that
We're themselves selected, and the most
scrupulous care was taken that no cod
ling moth, woolly aphis, San Jose scale
or any other pest had reached within a
mile of it while the fruit was growing
On the tree. The shipments are to
reach the tables of the respective recip-
tents in time for Christmas dinner The
apples are Oregon-from Hood River
valley.
