use is raised on the farm. The IL
horses are able to do all the work
with the exception of a short time
during the busiest weeks and then
other teams are hired SO that the
work is done at the proper time.
A packing house 80 by Sc feet is
connected with warehouse 40 by 90
feet. The packing house is equipped
for 16 packers and the place is light
ed with gasoline system with 1900
candle power lamps providing light
equal to day light for the short days
of autumn when the packing is in
progress. The building is so con-
structed that an addition can easily
be made. The production of the
orchard is increasing so rapidly that
an addition will be necessary next
year. Double siding and flooring
ing easy to heat for the comfort of
the packers and for the preservation
of the apples should they be held un-
til cold weather.
Every box of apples shipped bears
label showing the variety, the place
where grown and the number of ap-
pies in the box. All the best apples
are wrapped.
Last year As car loads were ship
ped. They went to British Columbia,
Montana, the Dakotas, New York
and three carloads went to England.
The best net returns last year was
$1.53 a box. In 1907 some sold as
high as 1925.
1t is very seldom that there is a
large crop of apples two years in
succession. This year is the light
one. At the present time the trees
are showing many terminal buds and
unless frost nips them it will be
necessary to thin three-fourths of
the fruit from every tree next spring.
Under favorable conditions the crop
from the Burrell Orchards next year
will run more than $4,000 boxes.

be made dry, if the law covering the
sale of Intoxicating liquors is en-
forced as the supreme court says is
possible, as the supreme court holds

CHARLIE M. MALLORY DIES
Promising Young Man Dies at Deer
 ing. Mo-, Monday Evening.

The news of the death Monday evening between S and 9 o'clock. of Mr. Charlie NJ. Mallory, native of this city, and who up to about year ago, was resident of this city, and which became generally known Tues l day morning, came as a bolt from a clear sky, and spread deep gloom over the city, and among our people, who had known him through all his short life.
 Charlie Mallory was born in this city February l5, 1889, and was there fore just entering his 22nd year-just in the bright dawn of promising, useful life. He had no premonition of death, not having been sick mo- ment, and death coming just a few moments after the fatal stroke. He was stricken Monday evening shortly after o'clock, with cerebral hemorrhage, and died about l5 minutes later
 MT. Mallory had been working here as lumber inspector with the For rest City Manufacturing Co.,, until about year ago, when he accepted a similar situation with the Internation- al Harvester Company's plant at Deering, Mo, where he worked up until the time of his death
 Mir Mallory was the youngest son ofs MT and Mrs. John W. Mallory.
 His mother, one sister and a brother preceded him to the tomb, and his only surviving relatives of his immediate family are his father and an elder brother, Messrs. John w. Mallory, Sr., and John w. Mallory, Jr., both residents of this county. De- ceased was an industrious, hard work ing, conscientious young man, one who had the love of all those who knew him well, the esteem and con tidence of his employers, and was generally well thought of and esteem ed. He was a member of the Odd Fellows, having joined Geo. r. Fay Tor Lodge No. l96, shortly before his departure for Deering He was also member of the Methodist church.
 The funeral was held "Wednesday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock. from the residence of his aunt, Mrs. Nellie Bu- ford, Rev. J. R. Nelson of the Method ist church, conducting the service at the house. Interment was had in Mt. Vernon cemetery, under the auspices of Geo. P. Taylor Lodge No. 196, l. 0. Q. F.
 His father, brother and Mir. Fenner Laughinghouse left Tuesday morning at 4:30 o'clock for Deering upon re- ceipt of the message announcing his death, and brought the remains to this city, being accompanied on the return trip by MT. Arthur Shelton, who had also been employed in the same firm with the deceased, and who had been for many years one of h closest friends.
 We are well aware that to those whom his untimely taking off be- reaves, words of ours can do little to assuage the poignant grief they feel, and they have our deepest and most sincere sympathy, and in this we are sure we are joined by all who knew him. We recommend them to Him who doeth all things well, and they can have the blessed assurance that he has only gone before to dwell wIth the loved ones who have preced- ed him, and there await them in that land over there.
