Early in life, his mind Sc
cured a divorce from his
body, and demanded as ali
mOny two thirds of the blood

dome soon resembled a
pumpkin upon a bending
stalk.
When he could no longer

FRUIT CROP PROMISING.
Apple Crop Expected to Be a Bump

Spokane, Wash, May Eastern
fruit buyers returning from trips
through the Yakima, Wenatchee,
Prosser, Spokane and Columbia riv-
err and Snake river valleys declare
that unless the unusual happens the
Spokane country should produce the
best crop of diversified fruit from
orchards to berries in its history.
The apple, peach, pear and cherry
orchards are in a flourishing condi-
ton and there is no danger of frost.
Many of the trees have started such
large bearing that they will have to
be pruned to support the weight of
fruit. The strawberry crop on the
Snake and lower Columbia rivers
has so far advanced that shipping
will begin in a few days. The apple
crop gives promise of being a bump
er and this is true of other tree
fruits. One hundred and seventeen
thousand acres of land in Washing
ton is devoted to apples, pears,
plums, peaches and cherries and
full crop is worth millions of dollars.
