BY GREAT NORTHERN RAIL-

Dayton o., April 27.-One Of the
most interesting exhibitions of fruit
that has ever been seen in this city
is now on display at the c., H. & D.
ticket Office on South Main street. In
cluded in the display Is a quantity ol
big red apples of which the Great

England, Australia, aside from the
markets in the eastern and southern
states, makes it a foregone conclus-
ion that good prices will be received
this fall. AS further confirmation
of the expected high prices comes
the report of the destruction of the
fruit crop in the middle west. This
means that that section of the coun-
try will have to look to the Pacific
states for its supply of apples.
Big Wheat Crop.
AS still another reason that this
community will see unprecedented
prosperity, the Big Bend, closely

of wheat ever grown in her entire

have never been titled before, are

full.
For as far as the sun is concerned
the middle west during March and
April enjoyed more sunshine than
the Inland Empire. The mean tenn
perature of the cities in Illinois was
somewhat higher than the mean
temperature of the cities in Washing
ton. But whereas the progression
toward summer was phenomenally
rapid in Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota.
Michigan and Wisconsin, and only
slightly above the average in Wash
ington, Idaho, and Oregon, the middle
west was plunged on April Is into
freezing mid-winter weather. while
the Inland Empire has had no great
variation in temperature and as far
as early loss from cold and frosts Is
concerned is practically out of dan
ger.
In the recent cold snap in Illinois
the thermometer fell in "a hours
over 80 degrees while the average
variation in Spokane and the vicinity
is but "a degrees. The department
of agriculture estimates that the loss
of the fruit and grain crop in Iowa
alone will amount to over 100000

have been no reports of appreciate
losses of any kind.

The larger wheels as we'll showed
greater power of resistance against

ones because of their greater weight.
The marked difference between a tire
of large size and smaller tire is
accounted for by the fact that smaller
wheels drop into holes in the road
way, adding greatly to the wear on
tires as well as to the discomfort OF
the occupants of the car.
Big wheels and tires glide lightly
