SPECIAL SALE.
Friday July %.

Don't forget that this is the week
OF the special sale-for look for more
buyers here than you have seen for
quite a while, especially the buyers for
the big sort.
My opinion is that this week will be
a good time to have horses here-for
two or three reasons
One is because l have advertised
more. and written more letters to buy
ers Than usual. Another reason is be-
cause the demand at the markets was
good last week, supply hardly equal
ling demand. And third reason is be-
cause the busy harvest season will
keep many horses away from the mar
kets and the supplies cannot be large.
See If I'm not right.

for the enormous crops in the orchards
OF the Pacific and Northwestern States
and provinces this year, an apple famine
would have resulted.
Many OF the Middle Western and East
eTn States reported small yields this
season, due to failures in numerous in
stances. but generally because OF pests.
Orchards have been neglected, and IN
scores Of places the trees have been per-
mitted to die because Of the lack Of even
ordinary attention
IN 1886 the total product OF the crop Of
the country was 100000 barrels. or
L. So, 900 bushels. Since then hundreds
OF thousands Of acres have been added.
and methods Of fruit-growing have i'm
proved, Yet the government reports show
that the aggregate crops IN all the States
in the Union was not more than 5000. 900
barrels. or 62.5Oo.000 bushels. IN 1903
There viii always be markets for ap-
pies. There never can be an overDroduc-
ton Of first-cIass stock. Il is, in fact.
impossible at the present time TO pro
