TINE CAR Lot FACTOR.

Ten years ago, 1t was only with diff
flculty that mixed carloads OF different
kinds OF fruit could be assembled, but
today there are individual orchards In
all the leading fruit producing counties
which can deliver, not only solid cars
of one variety, but solid cars of one
size and grade.
Deseret evening news. [volume] (Great Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1867-1920, 1910-12-17

after systematic effort and hard work
on the part OF associations and ship
pcrs, that the weakness was in meas
ure overcome. The majority of the
crop this past year was packed under
rigid supervision. and instead Of the
complaints concerning tho poor pack,
the reverse was true, and favorable
comments We're heard on all sides. 1t
Is not intended to suggest that all the
Improvement has come In one season,
but It is a fact that during this season
our fruit took a long stride towards
redecming the prcjudces which exist
cd against 1t.
There have been n great many i'm
provements along other lines. For IN
stance, a few years back. the nursery
man was forced to educate the grower,
ana dictate the varieties he should
plant, while today the grower not only
knows the variety he wants to plant,
but the size and the grade of tree which
will give the best results.
EMIT WoRMY APPLES.
One of the greatest boosts that was
ever given to the fruit industry of Utah
was the law passed by the last legisla-
tlre barring from tho markets worm
infested fruit The worm Cooling
MOTH Is the serious obstacle the apple
growing industry has had to fight. For
a great many years this insect blocked
the progress of apple growing. we all
remember the days when the worny
;ipplc was the rule, rather than the en-
cention. Today the worny orchard Is
n sign Of carclossuess and neglect.
A successful method for spraying the
cooling moth was devised by DR.. IL. ID.
Fall Of the Agricultural college about
six years ago, and campaign OF
education WAS carried on. both by the
college and tho board of horticulture,
but their work did not reach the care
less and Indifferent fruit grower, who
was raising worms and incidentally n
few apples to feed them. This type
of grower was always very much in
evidence, and constantly dcmorniiZcd
the market, when II came to selling
the crop.
The law barring wormy fruit was
first operative during tho summer ana
fall OF 1909. During the months OF
August, September october and No
vcmDer, 1909, there were 33.26i bushels
of apples and pears on the Salt Lake
market During this period the law
was not so rigidly enforced, but 1t
was necessary 10 condemn over $50
bushels OF fruit for worms. During the
same months in 1910, there woro over
81 600 bushels on the Salt Lake markets
and with IL far more rigid inspection,
only 392 bushels were destroyed, show
ing that the careless ana Indifferent
grower has been eliminated from the
commercial side OF apple growing, and
tho fruit which reached the consumer
was generally free from worms.

Utah Fruit Industry--191O

I as n producer. The nurserymen OF
Utah are spending Il great deal O!
money in equipment and facilities for
handling the increased business. and
practically every nurseryman is doing
everything in his power to produce,
not only good trees, but trees that are
free from every insect. pests, and dis
eases. Utah trees are passing the
most rigid inspection of the western
states.
NO REPRODUCTIONS.
It is often suggested that the frui,
industry is going to be overdone, and
this conclusion Is based upon the
heavy planting which Is going on, par;
tcuarly in the Rocky mountain states.

THE DIVINE YEAST.
BY EDWIN 4. NYE.

Mark Twain is authority for the
statement that you cannot tell how
far frog can jump by looking at him.
Neither can you forecast the future
OF a boy by his appearance.
A biographer Of Judge Peter Gross
cup. the distinguished federal Judge Of
Chicago, tells some interesting things
concerning the boy life of the judge.
His parents were primitive Germans
and members of the religious sect
known as Amish. They were poor.
too poor to send their FIVE children to
school. Both the mother and the girls
worked in the fields. and Peter alone
got some schooling.
Peter was a tall, awkward youth.
with a mop of black hair. untrimmed.
after the Amish fashion; a protuberant
nose and thick lips
Even today Judge Grosscup is not a
handsome man. though distinguished
looking.
Moreover. Peter would not work. he
was a dreamer Of dreams that nobody
understood. But his mother said:
IF the Lord doesn't feel to make
Peter work don't feel to do it,"
Which argued rare philosophy in the
mother, who. with a mothers insight.
saw something unusual in her awk-
ward son.
Peter disappeared from the neigh
borhood. and the next that was heard
from him he had graduated at college
with honors and was studying law.
Somewhere within the uneouth
Amish lad was a divine yeast that
caused him TO rise in the world.
Il is good to add that when the
judge became prosperous he took very
good care Of his people.
There IS this TO be said:
II you aspire 70 a prophets reputa-
tion be not swift 10 predict the future
Of a freckle faced country youth.
There may be Lincoln inside Of
him.
And further
With the career Of Judge Grosscur
before him. the poor boy who aspires
TO distinction may well take hope,
And further STILL
II is your business and mine to see
that the door Of opportunity remains
wide open to the poor and ambitions
