it is only by banding together that the

INTERNATIONAL MEETING.

Delegates representing 46 nations In
all parts of the world were assembled
in the magnificent marble palace erect
ed in the grounds of the historical viii
la Borghese. near Rome, for the pur-
pose, when King Victor Emanuel
opened the first session Of the Inter
national Institute of Agriculture. The
organization, which owes its existence
to the initiative and efforts of King
Victor Emanuel, and has met with the
warm support Of nearly all civilized
governments, has for its principal OBJ
ject the collection of complete and re-
liable information concerning the farm
crops in all parts of the world. The
King of Italy not only had the marble
palace built for the exclusive use of
the Institute, but has also bestowed
upon the Institute estates which yield
an annual income CT from 100000 to
$100, 900. The palace was first used in
June of this year, when the permanent
organization committee, composed of
representatives of the various coun-
tries supporting the Institute plan, as
sembled for preliminary conference.

The apple is the commonest and yet
the most varied and beautiful of
fruits. A dish of them is as becoming
to the center table in winter as was
the vase of flowers in the summer,
bouquet of Spitzenburgs and Green
ings and Northern Spies. A rose
when it blooms, an apple is rose
when it ripens. 1t pleases every sense
to which it can be addressed, the
touch, the smell, the sight, the taste,
and when it falls in the still October
days it pleases the ear. 1t is a call to
bouquet, it is signal that the feast
is ready. The bough would fain hold
it, but it can now assert it's independ
ence, it can live a life of it's own
Burroughs.

STATE CONSERVATION MEETING.

When the Governors Conference at
the White House closed it's sessions
last May, the Governors carried the
spirit of the conference home with
them to their own people and have
kept things moving ever since by ap-
pointing state commissions to study
local problems, by writing and speak
ing upon the subject of conservation
and by keeping in close and helpful
touch with the national commission.
Because of this fact, the first meeting
of the Washington State Conservation
Congress met in Seattle, November 20
and 21. Rain, copious rain, prevented
as large an attendance as was hoped
for, but some excellent ideas were pre-
sented.
Mr.. E. H. Libby, President of the
Washington Forestry Association, pre-
sided and gave a short address on
"The Conservation Movement" Land
Commissioner e. w. Ross talked in
structively on "The Presidents Con-
gress of Governors" but opposed some
administrative methods applied to
Washington public lands. D. G. Henny,
supervising engineer of the United
States Reclamation Service, outlined
What the Government Is Doing"
while Senator George F. Cotterill told
What the Legislature Can Do" ap-
proving the administrative methods as
applied.
Joel Shoemaker talked on "The Prob
lem of Lokged-Off Lands" and intro
duced a resolution favoring the forma-
tion of Improvement districts to trans
form them into desirable homesites.
Among other speakers were Prof. c.
H. Goetz of the State College, who
talked on Forestry in European Coun-
tries; Col. H. M. Chittenden of the
United States Army, who talked about
"Reforestation" in a very instructive
manner, and Prof. Frank G.. Miller of
the Washington University, whose
topic was Forestry Education

THE APPLE

From the choicest samples of this
fruit grown in it's unexcelled beauty in
the Pacific Northwest, ten boxes have
been selected to present to King Ed
ward VII. of England ten boxes to
William of Germany; others have been
sent to the rulers of Austria Hungary
and of Japan, besides many boxes to
other important personages and soci-
eties throughout the wide world.
Great is the apple-the king of fruits.
