NEWTOWNS OR sPITZ
Relative Ratings of Two Popular
Apples by Expert.

AS both Newtown and Spitzenberg
apples can be successfully grown in
Polk County, the following relative
ratings of the two varieties, prepared
by Secretary Williamson of the State
Horticultural Society, will prove in
teresting and instructive to local or
chardists. Mr.. Williamson says:
I'm reply to query as to the rela-
tive rating of the Newtown and Spit
zenberg apples, will say that the Amer
lean Pathological society uses the Spit
zenberg apple as the standard of ex-
cellence, so far as quality is concerned,
and rates it 10. The rating for quality
given the Yellow Newtown is 81
This rating was given before Oregon
Yellow Newtowns were known out
side of the state This rating applies
solely to the quality of the flesh.
1T is a strong assertion to state
that any one variety of apples ranks
all others, if we take into considera-
ton, in addition to the quality of flesh,
color, form and keeping quality of the
fruit, and health, vigor and bearing
habits of trees, and the diverse tastes
of different consumers and groups of
consumers.
There is a marked difference of
opinion among good judges as to the
comparative merits of the Spitzenberg
and Yellow Newtown in the matter of
quality of flesh. Downing, one of the
best authorities on fruits who has ever
lived in this country, placed them on a
par, to wit: The Esopus Spitzenberg
is a handsome, truly delicious apple,
and is generally considered by all good
judges equal to the Newtown Pippin,
and unsurpassed as a dessert fruit by
any other variety
'The most valuable recent publica
ton on apples is The Apples of New
York In this work the quality of the
flesh of the Newtown is rated Best;
that of the spitzenberg very good to
best
"In the United States, the Spleen
bergs of the fanciest grade sell for
higher prices than Newtowns of the
corresponding grade. In England the
Newtown is preferred to all other ap-
pies sent from this country, and the
Spitzenberg is not especially popular,
selling there at about the same prices
as Baldwin, Northern Spy and King
apples of equal condition"

was accidentally shot in the leg about
six months ago, while tending the pit
at the rifle range south of town, is
gradually recovering from the effects

been found unnecessary, although 1t

will regain full use of the injured

BRINGS GOOD PRICE
BUYER BIDS 32H CENTS FOR
POLK COUNTY MOHAIR.
Pool of O,OOO Pounds Sold to William
Brown & Company, of Salem
Growers Are Delivering.

William Brown & Company, of Sa-
lem, were again the lucky bidders at
the annual auction sale of the Polk
County mohair pool, held in Dallas
last Saturday afternoon. The bid of
this firm was S2h cents.
The growers met in the Courthouse
in the morning and appointed SELL
ing committee. The members of this
committee were c. c. Gardner, of
Bridgeport; George Richmond, of
Smithfeld; NJ. M. Ellis, of Dallas;
Emerson Harris, of Oak Grove and
G. Rempel, of Perrydale
In the afternoon this committee met
and received bids for the pool. Four
bids were submitted, the bidders being
A. ]. Ray and Theo. Bernheim, of
Portland; d. L.. Keyt, of Perrydale,
and William Brown s. Company, of
Salem. The bids ranged from 80 to
3Oh cents. All bids were rejected.
Mr.. Brown then made the selling
committee an offer of 81 u cents. This
bid was likewise rejected, and the
pool was placed in the hands of Sec
retary H L. Fenton for sale, Mr.. Fen
ton having given his assurance that
a better price could be obtained. See
ing that he would have to bid higher
or lose the pool, Mr.. Brown then made
an offer of S21s cents. This bid was
satisfactory to great majority of the
farmers, and the sale was closed at
that figure.
Thirty Tons of Mohair.
The number of pounds of mohair in
the 1910 pool will not be known un-
til all growers have made delivery,
but Secretary Fenton believes that 1t
will be in the neighborhood of Co.
900. The sale of the pool will distri-
butte about $4,000 among the farm
ers of Western Polk County.
Secretary Fenton announces receiv-
ing dates as follows:

are not worth more A producer can
soon get his name up by supplying none
but the best article if he chooses to take
the trouble. The pedlar, the city or
country store keeper will soon learn
your reliability.
If you have a good article you are in
a position to demand a good price. If
you have not, you must take what is Of
fered to you. [ am aware of the "lions
in the way" of the farmer Of the second
class, such as a distance from market,
difficulty in keeping eggs from freezing
in transit during winter, etc. But there
is one thing he can certainly do and that
is to sell for eating none but non-fer
tilized eggs If from carefully and
cleanly fed hens, such eggs will undoubt-
edly keep longer than fertilized ones,
particularly in the summer season. But
[ do not wish to be understood as advis-
ing farmers, under any circumstances to
hold on to their eggs Eggs cannot be
marketed too soon after being laid in
any and all cases.-A. G. Gilbert, in
American Poultry World.
