THE STETSON FAMILY.

Mr.. Andrew j. Stevens of this city has given
US some facts concerning family well known
in this vicinity and who had summer resi-
denee in Newcastle John Greenleaf Stetson,

United States Courts in Boston for A years
and for the last IT years was clerk of the
United States Circuit Court of Appeals, and

ton paid him much honor. The son in replying
to letter from Mr.. Stevens asking for par
ticulars as to his fathers death gives the
above with other details and says of another
relative, a sister of Mrs. George W. Burgess
of this city ''You speak of Helen McLain. She
lost her husband, Joseph Aver, in San Fran
cisco year or SO ago. We are in constant
communication with her. She loved my father
dearly and grieved sorely over his loss. have
not seen her since 1891, when l made short
visit at their home in San Francisco. Mr.. Aver

San Francisco spared his property, which was
largely improved real estate The fire came
within few hundred feet of his home and
other houses, but by good fortune they
escaped

The Superiority OF Eastern Fruit.

Only the other day New Highlander of long
experience in fruit growing, just returned from
a residence on the Pacific coast, mentioned the
superior quality of eastern fruit. The poor
eating quality of western apples and pears was
not owing to the long journey, he said. 1t was
no better when picked right from the orchards.
His family had lost the fruit eating habit out
There was plenty of poor looking fruit in the
Pacific region, too, but the high freight charges
kept it at home. 1t was his opinion that land
values in that section are too high and that
much more can be had tor the money in the
east, but that the east does not realize it's fav-
ora5le position because of the lack of western
boom methods here In the long run he believes
the quality of eastern apples will place them
at the very top of the market-The American

Strikes are Costly.

-, Nova Scotia furnishes the latest impressive
illustration of the costliness of the strike
method of settling differences between capt.
tai and labor. The Halifax Herald computes
that the Cape Breton coal strike has cost
already in loss of wages $537,6OO. Loss of
royalty to the Nova Scotia treasury is $500.
1t is said that $250,00O has been paid out in re-
lief from the funds of the labor organization
and cost of soldiers is placed at $4,000. How
much the company lost in profits on the $685.
600 tons of coal that should have been mined is
not estimated. There are losses of wages and
profits in allied industries and trades, as in the
frelghts on coal shipped, and in furnishing
supplies to the mine. The Herald makes the
whole bill million and a half.

METHOD IN APPLE MARKETS.

Experts from all sections who studied
apple packing at the Boston fruit show,
appeared impressed with the merits Of
the western box package. Said Prof. C.
y. Sanderson of New Hampshire: 1.-THE
western apple box is the coming method
Tor shipping choice fruit. - Said Director
;: ". Fletcher of Virginia Experiment
Statlon: The box package is undoubted-
y the package for fine fruits designed
Tor export as well as for the American
markets, although there will probably
always be a class of fruit grown which
might better be handled in barrels"
But some kinds of box packing are
worse than the poorest of barrel pack
ing. The other day in the Boston market
district commission mans helper was
seen ripping open some large boxes of
apples and pouring the fruit into barrels
or rather letting it fall upon the bottom
OF the barrels with a carelessness which
suggested his disgust. It was number
two fruit, ungraded, unfaced and loosely
packed, SO that on arrival it could grade
only as cooking apples. 1t is probably
useless for small shippers to try fancy
box packing as yet. In the first place
the dealers and their customers are not
accustomed to this style for eastern fruit
and hardly know what to do with it. Be-
glnners have no great skill in box pack
ing or grading and usually do not have
enough fruit to select from to make a
large shipment that would receive re-
spectful attention.
The beginning of the eastern box trade
should be made by the extensive orchard
lists and large buyers. These could also
include the crops of their neighbors, grad
ing and packing the whole lot under skill
ed supervision, and making also sure that
commission man is selected who could
prove equal to the missionary task of in
Producing the fruit to the fancy trade.
The box plan is all right, and the best
eastern fruit is all right but, as with all
departures from the regular market rou-
tine, there must be extra good manage
ment.-The American Cultivator.

AMERICAN APPLES IN DEMAND.

Consul Henry H. Morgan of Amster-
dam, reports that there will be large
demand for American apples in the Meth
erlands during the coming year, due to
the fact that this years crop of Dutch
apples is considerably below that of
former years. The consul's trade de-
tails follow:
Heretofore the greater part of Ameri-
can apples imported into Holland have
been reshipped from Liverpool and Ham
burg, but better prices can be obtained
by American growers by shipping their
apples direct to Amsterdam or Rotter-
dam, as the intermediate freight will be
avoided. There are direct lines of steam
ers to Rotterdam and Amsterdam from
New York, Boston, Philadelphia and Bal
timore.
Consignments of apples are placed in
bonded warehouse and sold at public auc-
ton. Before the sale takes place sam
pier selects a certain number of barrels
and opens one-half of the number so
selected at the top and the other at the
bottom. The prospective buyers then
bid upon the lot, accepting the sample
barrels as representing the quality the
entire shipment. One special advantage
that growers would have in shipping
these apples to Holland instead Of to
Hamburg is that apples containing the
San Jose scale are not prohibited in Hol-
land.
The apples should be packed in stand
ard barrels of bushels, or if of special
quality, they should be wrapped in paper
and packed in cases of one bushel, and
IL H. AL Al ell
given, The duty on all kinds of apples
is per cent ad valorem, which is deter
mined by the price they fetch at public
auction.
The kind of apples generally imported
and prices generally obtained, per barrel
of three bushels, is as follows: Baldwin,
$3.50 to $3.50; Spy, $3.50 to $500; Ben
Davis, $3.50 to $3.50; King, S57 to
$7.15; York Imperials, $3.50 to $500.
Red apples are preferred to green or yell
low ones.

Potato Paragraphs.

Harry and Will Chadwick of Palermo
raised more than 1000 bushels of pota-
toes this year and Charles Arnold of the
same town harvested 1000 bushels.
Randolph Warren of Kenduskeag, on
three acres of land, raised this year 400
bushels Of potatoes. Next year he
intends to put in Is acres of potatoes.
The banner potato crop in the town of
Knox, and possibly for Waldo county,
that of B. M. Shibles, who is said to was
have turned out 1900 bushels of market
able potatoes. From one and three
quarters acres he raised crop Of 800
bushels, all of which were good and
sound.

lated dust. At stockholders meeting of the

asserted that the company declared an annual
dividend of per cent, with equal amount
left in the treasury for emergencies. The
service has been good, but people We're quick
to resent the increase in rental and in conse-
quence it is alleged that $50 of the some 27O

dent line is now being talked up to connect
