Other Western Varieties

The success of an orchard is dependent upon the
judgment displayed in the selection of varieties
the profit paying kind. And profit in fruit growing
means quality. Quality and color are the two
things that the great fruit consuming public pay
their money for. That's certain-you can't deny it.
Increase your orchard p%rofts-do it by planting
the splendid tested special sorts of Stark Trees. Begin
now-don't wait until next season. Plant now
and be that much nearer a big profit paying crop
than you would be by waiting 6 months or a year.
Here is a brief list of varieties highly adapted
to western conditions-the kind that will make a
model orchard which will yield profitable returns.

turned to East Ely last evening. MI.
Cunningham was called away several
weeks ago on account of the death
of his brother in Iowa.
The wrecking outfit, consisting of
the crane and several outfit cars,
has been sent to McGill to assist in
moving some heavy material at the
trestle.
Engineer E. s. Stewart Ms slowly
but surely improving in health. With
his family he expects to leave for
Wells next Monday for a visit, Mrs.
Stewards parents living at that
point.
The ''ping-pong' was delayed yes
terday morning on account OF pull
ing out a draWbar at Smeltervflle.
The delay caused several of the men
employed at the concentration to re-
port late for duty.
Tom Bartsos, a Greek employed
on the rip track, had his fingers
crushed in a slight accident yester-
day. The injury, though painful, is
not serious and it Is not though he
will lose any of his fingers.
-
The main line freight out this
morning has 9 o'clock sharp orders
for leaving East Ely yards. They
will pick up a number of cars at
Smelterville, an extra engine having
been assigned to assist them with
this work.
The main line passenger arrived
on time last evening due to the fact
that the Southern Pacific sent a stub
train west from Ogden, not waiting
on the through train. The latter
were all very late on all lines from
the east into Salt Lake and Ogden
yesterday. The delays are charge
able to both larger business and
snow difficulties in the mountains.

Being impressed more and ore all
the time on the minds of those
whose business it is to keep the BUSH
ness of the Nevada Northern moving.
That business is gaining right along
and getting healthier with the pass
ing of every week. More engines
are needed and the big hope of the
boys of the operating department is
that the visit east of Manager Can
non will result in the announcement
of orders placed. after the first of
the year for more engines.

Stark King David Apple

You should plant it along with Delicious-plan
it largely-youW never regret it. It's a money max
er, and a big one. 1t has highest quality, is a Ions
keeper, very hardy, and has beautiful color. Sela
at highest prices. Many planters think it bette
than Delicious.
In my opinion King David will surpass Delicious as
a commercial apple. 1t is fine as silk. Rev. I. II.
Atkinson. Entiat, Washington.
Was in Mr.. Odds orchard last week. His. King
David 3yr. old trees will bear quite a lot Of fruit this
year. l consider them far ahead of Jonathan-the fruit
is larger, has better color and flavor and il a better
keeper.-D. J. Hayden. CheIan Co., Washington.
King David stood rs degrees below zero last winter
without injury while Ben Davis suffered severely
r. G. McDoueal, Chelan Co., Washington.
King David, a very rich red, makes a most beautiful
apple. Hangs on the tree well, equal to Ben Davis
and Just as productive; quality is equal to Spitzenbure;
picked three boxes from one scion grated on Ben
Davis. lii the finest apple you have for this part of
the country; the most beautiful apple grown; can't help
but sell anywhere and ahead Of all others. Have
heard nothing but King David all this season. Have
had to date ffty-two parties at my place to see these
apples.-F. Dando. CheIan Co., Washington.
Include King David in your next order. You'll
never regret it and will want more when you see it
magnificent fruit.

Stark Early liberia Peach

One of the good things you can not afford to
overlook. It is winning golden opinions from
experienced fruit men the country over. Better
quality than liberia and ripens ten days to two
weeks earlier, reaching the markets when all other
good peaches are scarce and thus commanding high
prices. A great shipping peach, surprising liberia.
Ibelieve Early Elberta is one of the best varieties
introduced since the first liberia came. In Early
liberia one has all of the good qualities of liberia, and
the additional feature of early ripenine. When this is
taken into consideration, and when it Is planted along
with the original liberia, much of the strain and con-
sestion which comes with peach harvest will be Greatly
reduced. The shipping season will be heightened.
e. H.. Favor, Asst Horticultural, Davis Co, Utah.
Having tested its shipping and keeping qualities
thoroughly, without doubt it is the most valuable ad-
dition to the commercial peach list introduced in recent
years; an excellent shipper and as a keeper il has no
rival.-L. Marsh. HoH. Inspector. Davis Co.. Utah.
J. H. Hale (The Peach KING wrote me that he took
some Early liberia home from Georgia and that they
kept nearly twice as lons as Elberta.-Dr. Sumner
Gleason Originator of Stark Early Elberta) Davis
Co., Utah.

to state. they all returned Sunday
night.
Ted Pomeroy, the popular little
painter of the smelling company,
left Monday for his former home

made many friends during his few
months stay in McGill, who will be
sorry to see him leave, and all
wish him success in his new field.
A. l.. Barrett, the popular night
m%achinist, left Thursday morning to
reside permanently in Los Angeles,
Calf. Mr.. Barrett ownes a ranch
close to the city of angels and will
spend his time cultivating oranges
instead of splitting nuts.
q. HI. Birch, of the concentration,
left last week for his home in New
York City. Mr.. Birch had the mis-
fortune to injure his foot while at
work a few days ago. Although
painful, the injury is not serious,
and he will probably return to Me-
Gill the first Of the year.
Jack McMurray was painfully in
jured while at work last Saturday at
the concentration. A rubber belt
caught him under the chin causing
an injury to his neck and jaw; no
bones were broken but the young
man will be confined to his room for
a few days.

Why We Make This Offer

The August meteors, which come
from the direction of the constella-
ton Persegs, are found by W. f.
Denning, the British authority on
such matters, to be scattered through
out broad elliptical ring that has
it's outer limit far beyond the orbit
of Neptune. Every year the earth
captures many of the meteors as it
passes through the ring. So wide is
the steam that the earth, travelling
19 or 10 miles a second, takes seven
weeks 10 cross it, and the actual
width, therefore, mnst be nearly So
000,0 900 miles il the crossing is at
right angles. The meteors are be-
lieved to be connected with q bright
comet that appeared 1862 and has a
period OF about 100 years.
The novel method of electric weld
ing of l.. S. Lachman makes it
possible to use steel in place of MALE
able iron for many articles. Two un-
equal sections do not weld salts
tactoriIy so one piece of metal is cast
with projecting edge and the other
with point, and the two projections,
forced together by a hydraulic press,
are made to form the highest resis-
lance of an electric circuit. Being
thus heated to melting point or near
ly Sc, the pieces, under the great
pressure, become quickly more
strongly welded together than they
could be attached by means of rivets.

Modern Taste in Photographs.

The modern taste in photographs is
very apt to be entirely critical.
People are particular as to what they
want in this line. Nothing but the
best is good enough for them. That 8

in Stockton, has so many customers
amongst the critical class. His work
is most excellent. You'll find it
handsomely finished, clear and dis
tinct and true to life. Have dozen

Your friends will want one as soon as
they see them. Prices no higher than

V1umor ma Philosophy
By DUNCAN n. SMITH
REMINISCENT.

Back to the town where / was born
To see the boys again
Who used to go to school with me
When we were little mon,
To talk about the ancient pranks
On which we Used to thrive
And causo the teacher, young and pr!m,
To know she was alive;
To tread the old familiar ground
Where in tho long ago
Quite methodless my infant feet
Went lightly to and fro;
To talk with ancient citizens
Awhile for old times sake
Whose apple trees I used TO rob
And get the stomach ache;
TO wander where the babbling brook
Across the meadow stole
And see with my delighted eyes
The old time swimming hole,
To gaze into It's murky depths,
To wonder at the time
I had the nerve and recklessness
To plunge into that slime.
Oh, city of my boyhood days,
Oh, village of my birth,
used to think that you were just
The finest place on earth.
But now that have been around
And have q wider view
find that there are here and there
Some towns as fine as you.
