YANKEE TRICK IN
FRU|T-M MARKETING
VIRGINIA FRUIT FOUND CLASSED
AS NEW YORK PRODUCT IN
-
GLASGOW MARKET.

There are tricks in all trades but
ours" is an old saw. One OF the tricks
that Virginia fruit growers have been
advised OF recently has been the
custom OF the New York dealers OF
exporting Virginia apples graded as
New York fruit.
The story Of the way the trick has
been turned on the Glasgow fruit
market has Just been related at the
office OF the Commissioners of AEri-
culture by Alexander Allen. a Scotch
man. who two years ago was induced
by Commissioner koiner to buy a
farm of 250 acres in Fauquier coun-
~ and engage In fruit growing. Mr..
Allen has met with success. and Is
an enthusiastic advocate OF Virginia
as a fruit growing State.
A Yankee Trick.
Mr.. Allen says that heretofore
Glasgow has been buying very choice
apples from New York. classed as
New York State apples. Last year
some of his neighbors had the cour-
age and wisdom to pack their apples
properly graded. placing their names
on the boxes and barrels used in
shipping the same. These reached
the Glasgow market When they had
been examined by the buyers they at
once said that they were the same
apples which they had been buying
from New York and classed as New
York apples. As a result. four or Ave
of Mrs. Aliens acquaintance from
Scotland have entered into negotia-
tions for the purchase of Virginia
fruit lands
Mr.. Allen gives some important
facts as to how apples on the Glas-

GREAT FUTURE Of
P0ULTRY-RA RAISING
NEW REMEDY REDUCES RISK OF
Loss TO FLOCKS AND IN
CRE.AsEs PROFITS.

There Is no industry in America
which promises one-half so we'll for

since meats have gone skyward with
no apparent intention of coming to
earth again for years to come, IL prac-
tlcally without limit. The great
American people have the money and
the appetite and the man who has
the goods can turn them into cash.
Poultry raisers especially that large
class which might be termed begin
ners. meet with much loss by reason
OF 1nsiduous diseases which affiict
the chick from the time he picks
the first time until he grows into
registering rooSterhood
Among these diseases are white
diarrhoea. which seems to be born
with the chicken. roup. cholera, gapes.
sorehead and many other ills to which
the chick seems heir to. 1t Is said
that Virginia mountaineer, firm
believer in roots and yarbs.' once
determined he was going to raise
chickens or bust He determined
that he would not be deprived Il
his profit by losses from deaths among
his chickens. He used axe and spade
industriously for some time and In
his native forests. and then brewed
wonderful decoction which he found
to be almost an unfailing remedy for
the troubles of chickendom. He gave
the treatment by innoculation and for
several Years his back yard was the
Mecca for all the sick chickens for
five counties around.
A wide-awake Richmond firm now
owns this preparation. which Is called
Oculum, and this firm. the Charles S.
Stacy Company, of "a North Third
street. Is actively advertising the
remedy. Many local poultry-raisers
have used the. remedy upon their
fiocks with such marked success that
they do not hesitate to give Oculum
the highest possible Recommendation.

POOR PITCHING
GIVEN AS CAUSE
OF HEAVY HITTING
HEAVY HITTING THIS SEASON
FAULT OF PITCHERS NOT
CORK BASEBALL.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, May 20
Hank ODay, veteran National
league umpire, yesterday declared
that the heavy hitting in the big
leagues is not due to the new cork
centered ball, but is directly due
to the poor work of the pitchers.
When shown the dispatch from
Chicago saying the new ball would
be modified to make it deader, he
said
"What do they want? Before
the cry was against pitchers bat
ties; now there is too much hit
ting. The fault lies entirely with
the pitchers. | don't remember IN
many years of experience a periot
when pitchers were so much off
as they are this year. The bal
has nothing at all to do with it
The ball is all right"
