SOME FINE FRUIT
GROWN IN VALLEY

Last Monday the Bear River
Valley Land Co. received from A.
J. Layland's ranch at Raymond a
box of apples and crab apples that
are beautiful to behold.
There are two varieties of apples
Red Astrachan and Otter's Large
Red-and all are perfectly sound,
and in size they are fully up to the
average. They are certainly fine
specimens of fruit to be grown at
an altitude of considerable over
5000 feet. Mr.. Layland grows all
kinds of small fruit on his ranch,
quite a number of varieties of ap-
pies and plums and pears.
The results obtained by Mr..
Layland demonstrate that fruit can
be successfully raised in this valley,
and it should encourage others to
engage more extensively in fruit
raising. In rrising fruit IN this
valley il may be necessary at times
to use the smudge pots to save the
fruit from late frosts in the spring,
but it would not be necessary to re-
sort to this method here much
oftaner than is now done in some
of the famous fruit sections of the
west. In the Payette and Boise
valleys and in some sections of
Colorado the fruit growers had to
use smudge pots on several oeca-
sions last spring to pave their fruit,
but for small outlays they saved
thousands of dollars worth of fruit.
1t is well known fact that fruit
grown in the higher attitudes ex-
cells in flavor that grown IN the
lower valleys. With the extremely
rich soil that we have in this
county, and the unlimited market
right al our door there is no reason
why more fruit should not be grown
here.
Since the above was placed in
type, the display Of fruit in the
land company's Office has been IN.
creased by a box of apples from
Nephi Williamson's ranch at St.
Charles. There are three varieties
Wolf River, Wealthy and Vel
low Transparent-and all are per-
feet in form and coloring, while in
size they will equal the apples
grown anywhere.
The Bear River Valley Land Co.
will be pleased to receive samples
of fruit, vegetables and grain from
every section of the valley.

comparatively complete. The
masses are practically free from
debt. Money is held by the banks
in abundance and rates are low.
"Why then does capital pause up
on the threshold of investment?
The answer we believe to be plain.
1t awaits adjustment of the relations
of government to business. Such,
at any rate, is the plea, and pi essure
is constantly brought to bear upon
executives and courts to make haste
haste which, in our judgment,
would result in less speed. Great
complications growing out Of might
lily changed conditions call for the
most serious consideration. To
settle grave question offhand is
only to invite disaster. Better not
settle it at all until a reasonable
certainty can be felt that it can be
settled right. Stability is ever capi-
tal's primary requirement. But the
adjustment which it now demands
cannot be effected in a month or a
year and never can or should he
complete. Elasticity is the prime
requisite of changes essential to
development.
"But capital is notoriously timid.
In the present instance, too, it is
absolutely foolish. No decision of
any court can permanently impair
any so.called vested interest. Con-
fiscation is undreamed of, as COM
pared with only a few years ago.

does not involve their destruction
Moreover, the sharp revolt against
all combinations-those that achieve
great good no less than those that
work injury--is clearly yielding to
study and reason. No sane person
now maintains that businesses

century ago In broad sense,
the day of the individual competitor
is past, but the opportunity, of the
individual remains even wider with

government can maintain an even

terest, on the one hand, and the
whole people, on the other, protect

saving the former from assaults.
