of wonder 1t was grown on the
Congdon ranch, west of the city, and
A. w. Speyer certities to its general
good character. The tree is a Wag-
ner, two years old, and this season
produced twenty-five fine sized and
excellent colored apples. Most of the
fruit is still on the tree, though some
was knocked off in removal. The
tree is there, anyhow, growing in the
window and will serve to show the
visitors to North Yakima this week
something of what may be accom-
plished in this community in a brief
time.
There are other things in the Val

orchestra which must be seen to be

PEDICREED NURSERY
STOCK NOW POPULAR
Propagation Believes New Venture
VIII Insure Permanent Grades
of Fruit.

II. N. Lichty, known as the orig
inator of ''Pedigreed" nursery stock,
was in the city the latter part of the
week from Sunnyside. Mr.. Lichty Is
very much interested in this new
subject and is giving it much thought
ana investigation. He Is thoroughly
convinced that it Is as essential for
the fruit grower to plant pedigreej
trees as for the stock grower to I'm
prove his animals by breeding only
to pedigreed stock. Speaking Of the
subject, Mr.. Lichty safd:
"A number of nurserymeu have
expressed themselves favorable to
the pedigree idea in fruit Some of
these have requested that they be not
quoted. But on the whole it Is
very remarkable how universally ia
vorably the idea of fruit registration
Is accepted.

In its summary of conditions the
Fruit Bulletin says;
Has a Hopeful View.
THE apple market shows some
uted over nearly every dealers of any
consequence, that is due to the fact
that there is an uncertainty as to the
market, but with the reports COM
ing in that New York states crop
has passed into the hands of strong
manipulators, there is every reason
that numerous dealers that have been
suit out of barrel fruit will turn to
boxes and the market will go higher
instead Of going lower. True. there
are many barrels of Jonathans that
are being sold on very reasonable
terms. but they are going into con-
sumption fast and they are, al the
price, the best speculation of the day.
Where can you produce any fne, solid
red fruit like this at the price? Every
thing looks promising. every one that
wants to work is employed. Whether
they are spending all their earnings
or not, they are living and the masses
are living better The financial year
