Gets New Varieties.

Fasteners are becoming ac-
quainted with two comparatively new
varieties which are. said to have
made many converts to the Apple
Consumers league. an unofficial or
ganiZatiOn composed of those who
agree to eat at least two apples a
day. These are the Delicious and the
Winter Banana. In color they are a
rich yellow. and the banana apple
has also blush of pink. They come
from Colorado and the apple districts
of the far northwest, and are scarce
enough to sell readily at 10 cents
apiece.
People are eating more apples
every year said H. w. Collingwood.
editor of the Rural New Yorker.
Some of the finest apples in the
world are raised in New York state,
and there is farm in the ChampIain
district which, from a rundown farm
five years ago. has been developed in
to 10O-acre orchard of Greetings
and every barrel this year has been
bought at fancy prices.
West Heirs the Feast.
& The eastern = 'mer is just begin
ming to appreciate the value of his
apple crop.
There is more money in it, if
properly done. than almost anything
else that the farmer can get from the
SOIL said Edward NJ LOOMS, of 95
Barclay street. About Is years ago
the United States was producing u.s.
100000 barrels of apples year.
They came chiefly from the eastern
farmers. So little value was attach
ed to the fruit that the orchards were
neglected. If the farmer got 81 a
barrel he thought he was doing well.
The development of the big western
orchards with their finely packed
fruit in boxes, has revolutionizei the
apple trade and greatly extended the
demand for this healthiest of all
fruits. Apple orchards will be the
salvation of hundreds of abandoned

Full Pages Last Week.

The live, wide wake merchants of
Marion are reaping a rich harvest and,
too, during the dull season Of the year,
apd all because they keep the needs of
the people in stock and advertise what
they keep. A liberal use Of printers

the other fellow is looking for The
good housewife does not feel interested
in one merchants add while she is deep
ly so in another, but she reads all of
them just the same.
Montgomery, Ward & Co., and
Sears e Roebuck advertise their goods
else the people would not be guilty Of
sending money out of the State for
gods, that in many instances, they
could have bought cheaper at home.
Keep what these mail-order houses
keep and let the people know you keep
them an they will have little excuse
for sending hard earned money out of
the State for cheap goods. Our mer-
chants are enterprising, business men.
who, both want and need your trade.
They buy your produce, giving you for
il in many instances, more than you
could get for it away from home, saw
ing you the freight, and surely you
should patronize the people that buy
your surplus. These mail-order houses
tell you what they have and very fire.
quently, as well as unfortunately, you
buy of them. But just send them an
ad., setting forth the fact that yon
have chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys,
butter and eggs for sale and they will
laugh you to scorn.
Stand by your home merchants, They
are your friends and you can be theirs.
How do you think it looks for you to
ask your home merchant for credit and
turn from him to ar unappreciative
stranger to spend your money? Surely
yru should not send, your money to
merchants who would not credit you
for dime.
Come to Marion, new things are
happening, new era is being lived
and the good old town is on boom.
