and knew less of the fungus diseases
Apple growing was apparently an

ripened fruit was the reward, not dol

which the pioneers sought.
AS the state emerged from it's pio-
neer conditions. as forests were clear
ed, railroads and highways were built,
and as settlements became thicked,
the cOdling moth and the curculie
came over the routes followed by the
inflowing population, without doubt
coming in the fruit and threes brought
by the settlers. AS the distance be-
tween the orchards became less, the
enemies of fruit and tree multiplied
and found it possible to travel by easy
stages from one part OF the state to

orchards in their trail
In recent years the apple grower
has found ways and means of fighting
the enemies of fruit and the past sum-
waged in about every county. Spray
ing, careful observations and study
have all gone far to give the growers
the upper hand against the pests.
While there is more work and thought
involved in apple cultivation today
than SO years ago, growers who are
mastering the calling of horticulture
are winning a wealth of satisfaction
| from perfected crops, and this satisfac-
ton will be strongly in evidence in the
glowing arrays of apples which will be
spread before the public at the COM

HISTORY OF EARLY
INDIANA ORCHARDS
palladium Specially

INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 2.-The In
diana State Horticultural society, be-
hind the movement for the apple
show in indianapolis, opening Nov &,
is one of the Oldest and most sub
stantial institutions in the state, it
having for rs years been a highly i'm
portant factor in the development of
the Hoosier land. Before Johnny APP
pleseed, the father of Indiana apple
orchards, was in his grave in 1847, the
society was at its work of developing
the states fruit resources, and the
coming show will really be celebra-
ton of its diamond jubilee and the
most elaborate exposition it has ever
held. In promoting apple culture, the
society has as the years have gone
by had to contend with constantly in
creasing odds in the way of orchard
enemies, which have not only ravaged
the orchards but discouraged the
growers until they learned how to
! combat these evils.
The first orchards planted in the
Middle West were started by Johnny
| Applesecd, or John Chapman, who OBJ
tanned his seed from the cider mills
of Western Pennsylvania and scatter
ed them along the streams and
through the woods of the Indiana will
derness. From his day to this it has
been evident to members of the So
ciety that Indiana has both soil and
climate for fruit culture, and what is
needed now is to revive the spirit and
determination Of the pioneers who
brought the first orchards into bear
ing. This revival is expected to come
through the apple show.
Henry Ward Beacher, then living in
Indianapolis, in 1S43 stated there were
IS nurseuries in the state, selling ap-
pie trees at 10 cents each and pear
trees at 20 cents, and doing good
business, while the long summers
brilliantly clear atmosphere, grea:
warmth and dryness during the fall
ripening months, give out fruit great
size, color and flavor" When the so
ciety met in 1874, 1870 varieties of Hoo
sier-grown apples were exhibited.
In these days most of the pests now
contended with had not appeared in
the orchards. The San Jose scale was
still in western Asia. The codling
moth, while known in eastern orchards

many attacks upon corporations and
leave business less at the mercy of
political demagogues. 1t will also
serve to bring the country into
safer and sounder economic position.

present high cost of living. Natural
" all these organizations resisted ev-

which otherwise would have declined
more rapidly to lower levels. They
also Systematically restricted produc-
ton. The power Of the trusts on pri-
ces, however, is partly exaggerated
incidentally the breaking up of these
monopolistic combinations will prove
the most telling blow against social
ism which has been struck in many
years. The worst of this agitation is
that it comes when the markets are
already disturbed by international pol
itics, by war rumors. by railroad
strikes, by trade reaction, by coming
tariff revision and other untoward
events.
The wonde4' is that the security

our farmers, who are still the back

The event of the week was the
declaration of the directors of the
United States Steel Corporation that
ing organization, and that it was not
contemplating any voluntary disso-
luton. This temporarily set at rest
alarming rumors and checked the
wholesale liquidation which began in
the early part of the week. The
question as to whether the Steel Cor.
poration has broken the law uninten-
be settled by the courts: if so, will
mean a long and strong legal battle.
The Steel Trust is the greatest of all
industrial combinations and as such
is naturally the center of political at
tack The fact that it's securities are
distributed on an unequal scale rem
ders its position all the more interest
! ing and important. Commissioners
Herbert Knox Smith has already call
ed attention to the practical monopoly
of the best iron mines in the country
upon which the Steel Trust places a
high valuation, and this at least is
likely to be an important point of con-
test. Probably it will not be proven
or even alleged that the United States
nopoly. That it has exerted a large
influence upon prices will doubtless
be proved. 1t may also be declared
practical monopoly in certain re-
spects, That it has conducted hostile
warfare upon any of its competitors
will not be proved. In many respects
the management Of the United States
Steel Corporation is admirable and
deserving of high praise, but in the
present state Of public temper and
with such vital economic issues await
ing settlement. it seems hardly posi-
BILE for the United States Steel Cor
Doration to avoid the strictest scruti-
ny of the law.
Great fundamental issues are at
stake in this controversy. The Sher-
man law aimed to preserve competi-
ton. The prime purposes of many of
out great trusts have been to elimi-
nate competition. The fact that they
have sought to do so may often be diff
ficult to prove. but their practical op-
Grafton leads to no other conclusion.
The Supreme Court has interpreted
the main purpose of the Sherman law
to be that of preserving competition
Mr.. Taft evidently recognizes that his
duty lies in enforcing the law. To
Wall Street the issue is both unpleas-
ant and untimely. Unpleasant be-
cause it seriously disarranges exist
ing methods: untimely because when
other troubles are thick it compels q
|readiustment that will be far-reaching
in effect and involve much labor and
friction The immediate outcome is
certainly disturbing. The later con
sequences, however, will be benefi
cial The breaking up of the monopo
