In France il has been estimated that

ar least quarter Of million men. re-
crmJed from the blacks of the French
colonies on the west coast Of Africa and
from Algeria. could be added To the
army as an integral part thereof within
the next five years. At present the na-
tive regiments do not number more than
about twenty thousand men. part ne

they hail; and il is really the experiment
made in bringing a couple Of regiments

ton of strengthening the home army

as the order OF the Day.

AS TO PRICES
GROWERS AND DEALERS ALIKE
BELIEVE THAT HIGH PRICES
WILL PREVAIL THIS YEAR
EDMUND TO GO TO ENGLAND.

A Daily World representative made
a canvass this morning of the local
fruit buyers and finds a very opti-
mistic feeling as to fruit prices this
fall. 1t is fully expected that Wine
sap apples will bring from 81 to
$3.50 per box, while Spitzenbergs
will run little higher and all other
varieties in proportion. While the
yield per acre this year will not be
quite as heavy as that of last year,
yet it is confidently expected that
there will be great many more
boxes of apples shipped out of this
valley than ever before, on account
of the increased acreage that comes
into bearing.
There are quite B. number of out
side buyers in the valley, but as yet
but few contracts nave been made
Seattle buyers are In the valley now
trying to get hold OF a few carloads
in order to supply the demands of the
Seattle market. Never before in the
history of Seattle has there been as
little fruit on the market as this
year. Peaches, apricOtS, cants, wa
termelons and tomatoes have all
brought fancy prices and the supply
has been far inadequate to the de-
mand. Those who have been able to
grow melons or tomatoes in the val
ley this year will be able to get fancy
prices for them.
William Edmund. who took several
carloads of apples to England last
year. will make another trip this
year. leaving here probably some time
about the first of November. He
wants 200 ears of apples for the Eng
lish and Scottish markets, but it Is
not likely that he will be able to Sc
cure this quantity of fruit The dis
position of the growers this year Is
for cash f. o. b. Wenatchee, while
Mr.. Edmund wants the fruit for sale
in England and would not be able to
settle for 1t until after his sales. A
number of growers are contemplating
letting their fruit go this way.
1t is said that NJ O. Tibbits crop
will go to England and 1t Is likely
that there will be % or so cars of
Wenatchee Valley Fruit Growers as
ISOLATION fruit which will be market
ed this way Mr. Edmund also has
other sources of supply so that he
may be able to get 100 cars from this
valley this fall.
The fruit growers association plans
on marketing it's fruit by selling 1t
in the pool to the highest bidder. the
same system as has been employed
the two previous years. AS to the
number of cars they will have they
are as yet uncertain as the canvass
OF the growers has not been com
pleted as yet.
