HANDLING APPLES
RAILROAD PROBLEM

The increasing production of apples
in the Northwest has furnished prob
lem which the great railway systems
will have to solve. Howard Elliott,
president Of the Northern Pacific, also
president of the National Apple Show
being held in Spokane this week, in
his opening address discussed the ques-
tion from various standpoints.
despite the fact that thousands OF
new trees have been planted and the
1909 crop of apples is the largest for
several years." said President Elliott,
"the demand for apples and the new
markets opened in all parts OF the
world will take every apple raised.
ut is getting of these apples to mar
ket with which the railroads are con-
cerned. American apples are always
at a premium in Europe. Far away
Egyptians have taken to the fruit and
want all they can get of it. Australia
on the other side Of the globe has a
growing appetite for this country s
apples. In our own country where
! the apples is regarded as the most
health giving of fruit the demand is
increasing and thus the railroads find
themselves facing the problem of
transporting the fruit.
One of the ideas suggested by
President Elliott is the erection in the
great producing districts Of apple
storage houses. He recommended that
the apples instead of being picked
from the trees and rushed to the cars
be placed in these storage houses
where they will be preceded. 1t has
been found that preceded apples keep
better and taste better than those
that are cooled in refrigerator cars
while in transit.
There are advantages in this plan
of storing the apples wnere the grower
will be able to get better price for
his product by holding it and shipping
when market conditions are improved.
The grower also will have more time
for handling his crop and will not have
to rush it to the trains.

Died.

At Turner, Ore, October II, 1910,
Hugh Alvin Sexton, by the accidental
discharge of a gun. Hugh was born
October 7, 1894, at Wasco, Sherman
County Oregon, being l6 years and 10
days old at the time Of death.
He came to Hood River with his
parents four years ago, after that time
being as well known to the writer as
one of his own family, and loved as
such.
He was a model young man, posses
sed of good habits, worthy the guild
ance of any young man, and loved by
all who knew him. We extend our
sympathy to the sorrowing relatives
and friends and especially do we sym
pathiZe with the mother, who alone,
of the immediate relatives, is left to
mourn his loss, the father, Ezra Sex
ton, having died at Walla Walla,
Wash, last June.
Hugh is gone, but not forgotten,
Sweetest memories linger near,
He is safe beyond the pillows
With his mother waiting here.
God is leading, we must follow,
Every step He knows the way,
He, the path has trod before us,
Shall we falter or delay?
When the trials sore beset us,
And the way seems dark and drear
Only trust him. He will lead us
Homeward past all doubt and fear.
Cast your burdens all upon Him,
lie has promised all to share,
Jesus knows our every weakness,
And He knows our every care.
Will you not look, dear Sister,
Up beyond this vale of tears,
Up to Him, who knows and loves US
And will calm all doubts and fears
Trust Him fully, He will lead you,
And will guide you every day
Till you cross the shining river,
And with loved ones reign for aye.

Hattiesburg has been fortunate in
its banks. They have always stood
for progress and the up-building OF
every legitimate industry in the Hat

Trust & Banking Co. has never been
a laggard in this good work, but has
been found in the forefront for all

the territory around it. Under the
guiding hand of President H. A. Camp

joyed remarkable prosperity along le-
Ultimate banking lines, and while
there are larger banking institutions
in the state there are none which pos
sess in greater degree the confidence
of the public or the esteem and good
wishes of patrons and public alike. A
strong feature of this institution is its
savings department, and it has done
much to encourage thrift and econ
omy.

PASCAGOULA IS Home
OF SMUTTY WORKERS
Pine Alone is Used And Many Miles
OF Land Have Been Stripped Clean
To Fill the Constant Burning kilns
Of That Section.

Writing from Pascagoula, Miss, to
the Manufacturers Record, Charles E.
Chidsey tells of an important but little |
known industry of South Mississippi !
the manufacture of charcoal, says
Mr.. Chidsey:
while charcoal may be made from
almost any kind of wood, in South
Mississippi the pine alone is used. Its
importance in the kitchen and in the
manufacture of gunpowder and steel
is so we'll known that we need not
dwell upon it's use in these arts. This
industry is most extensively carried
on in this county, no less than 100000
barrels of coal being produced here
annually which, at the average price
of % cents per barrel, equals $125,000.
AS on the lowlands of Jackson county
there will be an average of eight coal
kilns to the acre, with 400 barrels to
the kiln, the annual output represents
1850 kilns,. or 161 Ia acres Of land
that are annually denuded of timber
in this county alone in the making OF
this essential product of commerce.
On a journey from Pascagoula
through the charcoal country to Van
cleave one will traverse miles of land
that are practically stripped of their
timber. save here and there, where a
thick cluster of pine saplings indi

When a burner owns no land of his
own, which is often the case. the first
thing for him to do is to secure timber
rights from the owner of the timber,
which he does by Teasing" that is,
paying so much a barrel for the
amount of timber that he makes use
of. Having secured the timber rights,
the coal burner selects suitable site
for his kiln, generally a place as high
and dry as he can find, and then pro-
ceeds to cut down everything that
looks like a tree, not even sparing the
small sapling. After the trees have
been felled he cuts them into lengths
of four feet, and the larger sizes he
splits as they win be more easy to
handle and will burn better. He
then selects some convenient pine sap
ling for a center pole, or if there Is
no sapling convenient he plants a
tall pole in the ground, around which
he piles his timber, making a circular
pyramid about 40 feet in diameter
The timber is first placed in lengths
extending from the pole outward, and
when this has reached a sufficient
height he puts another pyramid OF
top of this, but the pieces of timber
extend upward from the lower pyra
mid towards the top of the pole, ant
the lower pyramid is covered witt
pieces of timber that extend upwars
from the ground towards the top o
the first pyramid.
