NO SURPLUS OF GOOD FRUIT
So Great Is Demand for Best Grades
Of Stock That 1t Is Always More
or Less Scarce.
(By G. r. BARNES

It is an interesting fact that the
great extension of fruit growing III
all parts of the country has heen at'
tended, not by decline in prices, but
by a very considerable advance. The
question whether or not the multi
plication of orchards and berry patch
es will have the effect of producing
glut. so as to render prOfitless the la"
Dor and expenditures of the fruit
grower, seems, then, very likely 10
meet a negative reply.
In the first place the demand for
all the fruits of North America IS
worldwide. The worlds appetite Tor
them is Unsuitable; and as the facili-
ties for distributing them are better
systematized through intelligent CO.
operative arrangements between
growers and transportation agencies,
and selling agencies in the city, 1t
seems as though the problem Is to be-
not how to get rid of surpluses, but
how to get enough of any kind OF
| good fruit. In years of great abund-
ance in American apple orchards,
GOOD APPLES have sold in Mexico at
| Is cents apiece. In London they have
retailed at rs cents apiece Other
fruits, capable of bearing transporta-
ton for long distances, have con-
manded proportionately high prices.
OF course, these prices have been for
choice fruit. In New York and Boston,
even 10 and Is cents apiece has been
readily obtainable for choice apples.
Such exceptional figures are not
however, necessary as basis for pro
fitable fruit growing. The moderate
prices paid by the mass of American
consumers are sufficiently high fol
that.
1t would seem then, that the
grower need only see to it that hi:
fruit is of good quality, attractivel,
nut up and intelligently marketed, tt
he certain of reasonable reward
But the day when neglected orchards
and bushes could be depended upon tt
produce salable crops has passed. Thu

in the use of the sprayer; and must
in short, give as close attention t
his trees as the stockman does to hi

a language he did not understand
With an adroit movement he followed
