the country an invitation for the farm CTS who are longing for Canadian wheat lands, to come to the warm section and take up better farms for less money. Those who have the migration fever are informed that there are 500 0eO,00O acres of rich land waiting for them in the South. which is made to include Oklahoma. It is admitted that some 200, 900 acres of the land need drain ing, but it Is worth the effort. and the other acres are enough anyhow. The Southern people inform their wan dering brothers that if thsy go Q tho wheat lands of Canada they will hove to live where the winter Is nine months long, and If they come to the South they will live where the winter is only three months long. and of small con- sequence as to the cold. In the vari- ety of possible crops tn South lays way over the. Canadian section. There is no limit to what may be raised prof itabiy in the warm section of this coun- try. There is a decided limit to what may be produced in the wild regions of Canada. There are better railroad and river facilities for shipping the produce of the South than can ever be expected in the Canadian Northwest. The land is easier to work. and the possible dAye of rest while the crops are growing are longer. There is more of boom Tn the South than in that cold place to the northward.

1 fifth, is a deiectabls foundation for 6 score of dishes. The men in the De- partment of Agriculture who know say there need be no difficulty In keeping cider fresh and sweet inde- finitely if it is handled property All that Is required is to bring the cider to temperature of 100 degrees Fah- renheit keep 1t at that heat for thirty minutes, and then seal 1t up tight. If kept in bottles or casks in a cool place, sweet cider may be enjoyed all winter.
 While many volumns have been written upon the care of orchards and the agricultural experts are always ready In assist with their advice and literature. the only way to make money out of apples year in and year out is to study the orchard anu the soil upon which it grows The wise selection of varieties to be grown is of course an important matter to con slider, in order that you may have the kind that will bring the top price in market at the time they mature. If you have presentable apple that rip- ems just little before the apples rais- ed by the rest of the farmers in the neighborhood, or Just little while after all the other orchards have done you can get better prices for your fruit than if, you dumped your harvest into the market at the same time as the rest. One of the most common mistakes made by orchard owners and farmers Is to argue that the apple trees will look out for themse1ves" True enough they will, but if they do they will not exert themselves 10 produce first-class fruit or much of It. Apple trees need lots of back aching work. They must be judiciously

In the first place the experts who talk so glibly about normal crops' of apples have not seen one yet. By normal we mean much if all conditions were first class and nothing happened to in- jure the yield" explained one of the officials. But, of course something always does happen, and so we don't ever get normal crop"
 The figure sharps employed by Uncle Sam to talk and write in mill lions are certain of one thing about apples--they know just how many of them are exported to foreign coun- tries. Last year we sent abroad l. 049.545 barrels of the green and ripe fruit and 24.23Ts73 pounds of apples months of the present year ended with the list of Octber American apple shippers exported sI3,116 barrels of the whole fruit and 12.904.212 pounds of the prepared apples. As practically four-flfths of the entire crop was still to be heard from when the nine months figures were obtained. the showing is good deal better than 1t looks. For the twelve months end ed with July the apples exported in barrels were valued at $2,782007 and worth only fraction less. or s2,33s- 9a6. It will be seen. therefore that the business of making dried apples. that we used to see carried on in small way at home, has grown to considerable proportions If one pauses

If all the barrels needed to pack this years apple crop were placed on end. one above another says The New York Times they would make pile 5000 miles high; if strung along the railroad tracks used by President Taft on his recent transcontinental tour they would have stretched from Boston to Chicago. to Minneapolis and St. Paul. to Seattle. down the coast to Los Angeles east ward through the deserts to Phoenix and the Grand Canon. southward to Fl Paso and Jaurez, where the Presi- dents of the two great republics met and dined. down to San Antonio and the Charles P. Taft ranch near Cor pus Christi. and from Corpus Christi to Dallas.
 Every inch of the Presidents way to Dallas might have been edged with apple barrels filled to the top hoop with the finest fruit that grows, and then it Is dollars. to doughnuts that the investigation would find that they had not gathered all the crop after all. The apple yield is like that of the unobtrusive and industrious hen there's no way of telling exactly what it does amount to. The best the Gov ernment experts can do is to say that this year is about so much bigger than last year or the year before, and last year and the year before were such and such Q per cent. of nor nal crop"

 One capitalist offered him 5000 for the patent rights for the City of New York, and S250.000 was reported to have been offered him for the Louisiana concessions. He firmly de- olined all such offers and went broke. The Union Cold Storage Warehouse Company of Chicago was the first concern to engage In the business of preserving fruits, beginning its busi- ness career on Thanksgiving Day. 1889. Since then the increase in the volume of cold storage business has been enormous. and 1t is now estimat- ed that the total refrigeratIng capa- city of the plants throughout the United States is In excess of 100000 900 cubic feet. Single houses in New York and Chicago frequently store away 100000 barrels of apples in the early Fall and Keep them until the top price may be obtained in the Spring. Refrigerating steamers now take American apples to almost all quartesr Of the globe. the principal markets being the big seaports of Great Britain, Germany, Austria. and France.
 The apple in it's varied uses is like wheat. It appears in scores of forms, and all are good. It makes the best vinegar and one of the best of jeIlies Its Juice. when extracted and prepar- ed to prevent fermentation, makes an excellent beverage that is even better than the cidr of our ancestors It is used in the preparation of other fruits preserves.

trimmed. must be sprayed honestly and thoroughly, and must be cuiti- yated. The man who thinks that he can raise crop Of corn or wheat between the rows of his apple orchard generally discovers by the end of the season that he has neither grain nor fruit. The apple grower who ships his fruit carefully will realize i've times as much as the man who sends his harvest to market in bad condition often the New York and Chicago mar kets are glutted with slack fruit of all sorts, and many thousands of car loads that have reached the big cities have never returned a penny to the owners.
 often the transportation and re- frigeratior charges will more than eat up the vaue of poor carload of apples. In all the apple growing sec lions the orchard owners are paying more and more attention to the care- full incorporation of their fruit. or re- cent years the fancy stock has come to the market in half-bushel and bus hel crates, like oranges, each apple being wrapped in white paper bearing the individual stamp of the grower.
 Of recent years the canning industry has played large part in the apple business. The big bak CTS and confsc- tions of the cities use enormous auan- titles of canned apples in, the manu- sauces sauces and the broken pieces and pastry know that they are not made from the fresh fruit. Even the skins and cores are used in the preparation of the cheaper grades of jellies and sauces, and the broken pices and shreds that cannot be utilized in the evaporators are ground up into what

to reckon up the length of string that would be required to carry to 33,474,- 6s4 pounds of dried apples that were shipped abroad last year it would al- most make one dizzy, But as a mat ter of fact. they don't put dried ap- ples away in the attic on strings as they used to do in the good old days when we were boys.
 Of all the native fruits the apple Is the most adaptable to the table as we'll as the most adaptable to the land. In it's numerous varieties it's season of maturity extends throughout the year, so that continuous succession may be had without resorting to arti- ficial means of preservation.
 In spite of that fact, however. as the uses of the apple extend so also are multiplied the ways of keeping 1t and its products. Mighty warehouses are now to be found in New York. chi- cago, St. Louis and the cities on the the cold storage of the apple. Lines of refrigerator cars are travelling night and day between the oceans carrying the Western apples East and the Eastern apples West. Until steam and electricity were applied to trans portation the fruit business of the world was at standstill but as soon as rapid transit was assured the or- chards and vineyards expanded.
 Then they produced too much for the demand and millions of dollars worth of apples as well as other vari- cities of fruit routed on the ground or the trees for lack Of market. The Rev. Benjamin M Nyce of Decatur County, Ind, was the first man to apply refrigeration to the storage of fruit, according to history. and he

 Then he went home and to bed.
 The next morning the papers told of the murder of a woman by her hus- band. The crime was commintted in the house in front of which Baron had met the old woman.
 The thing got on my nerves" says Baron. T went back to tho house and learned that no old woman lived there and that none of that description liv- ed in the neighborhood. The killing was the result of drunken quarrel, and could not associate that fins old lady with It."
 The original mistress of that house. which has since been torn down, was the maternal grandmother of one of our best bankers. She lived and died there. Is it possible that her spirit tried to prevent a murder in the house that had been her home?
