APPLES OF THE NORTHWEST.
Enormous Crop Purchased For Eastern
and European Markets.

Contracts have been closed in Spo-
kane. Wash. by an eastern firm for
more than 100000 worth of Washing
ton and Oregon apples for eastern and
European trade. and the purchaser cy-

boxes, previous to which he contracted
for 10000 boxes in the Hood river and
Mosicr districts in Oregon. buying
also $4,000 boxes from the Dumas or
chards at Walla Walla. Wash. and
10000 boxes from the orchards at Car.
field. Wash.
The purchaser said the prices rcceiv-
ed by the growers in the Hood river
district were the highest ever paid for
their fruit. His purchases there az
grcgatcd more than 100000, and he
paid us high us 500 Il box. or 5 cents
a pound. He also paid $3.50 and in
several instances S2IJ box for
Washington apples of the first grade.
Much of the superiority of the west
crn apple over the product of the New
York districts is in the picking and
packing Growers fully understand
these advantages. and that is where
they are wise. Their fruit is picked
ripe and carefully graded and honestly
packed, the result being that buyers
are pleased.
There is not the least danger that
the growers I'm the northwest will over
do the apple industry. They could
not do that even by doubling or
trcbing the present orchard area. The
apple crop of the United States was
about GI,OOO,OO0 barrels in 1896, and in
no year since then has it amounted to
more than 35.O00,O00 barrels The pres.
ent crop will not reach that figure
When it is considered that the pop
ulation of tie United States has in.
creased probably by 20,000.OOO since
1896. while the apple production has
fallen from GI,O00,OOO to 30 .OO0, 600 bar
rcls, it can be readily seen that ii is
out of question to think that the apple
growers in Washington, Oregon Idaho.
Montana and Colorado can overSupply
the ever increasing market.

Utilizino Barn Manure.

Many farmers are beginning to save
their stable and lot manure and also
TO keep enough live stock to make
large enough quantities TO justify the
use of Sprcadcr.
There are few farmers even at this
enlightened period who conserve all
the available plant food on their
farms. There has been much improve
mcnt along this line since the days
when barns were built without base
ments and the manure from the sta
blcS was thrown outside, there to leach
through summer rain and winter snow
Much of the richness of this exposed
fertilizer is soaked away into the sur

Sugar Bests and Boot SUGAR.

Though sugar can be extracted from
many plants, the worlds supply of
sugar comes at present from only two
plant species-sugar cane and sugar
beets-and 1t comes about equally
from each. The former is grown only
in tropical or 'subtropical climates,
the latter only In temperate climates.
The great bulk OF the beet sugar

gary and France being the leading
producers. But I'm recent years the
young and rapidly growing beet sugar
industry of the United States has
come into prominence. There are now
sixty-four active beet sugar factories
In this country, located In sixteen diff
ferent states. Last year the farmers
or these states harvested about 1865, 900
acres of beets and delivered to the
factories 3,415,000 tons of beets. From
these nearly 10000 tons of refined
sugar were made. The yield Of sugar
per acre of beets was 1884 pounds.

pertinent has proved that manure thus

or quite hair its value.
With the building of barns with
basement cellars portion of this
waste was prevented. but much of the
liquid Is still lost on most farms. Ce-
mented manure cellars are the eXcep-
ton. yet they pay big dividend on
money invested. Cement is not expen-

farms. or ut least would cost little, and
any intelligent man can mix it and
