these she has succeeded in transplanting to

best, however, she must still come to the land
OF the Stars and Stripes.
There does not seem to be very clear rec
ord OF just when the American export trade In
apples had its beginnings, but probably it be-
gan on a small scale almost as soon as the low
ers Of the good things of earth discovered what
precious boon is the mealy sphere with it's
refreshing, thirst-quenching propensities. The
lands over seas have acquired their enthusiasm
for American apples partly because they have
already had the best grade of the fruit served
to them There are two explanations of this.
On the one hand there is the consideration that
only good grade Of apple of certain varieties
has the keeping quality to permit of it's ex-
portation,-a transfer that means that weeks
and more likely months must intervene be-
tween the time the apples are picked in Amer

pay for such delicacies. The poorest classes
In Europe eat the yields of our wheat and corn
fields and if we could not sell our wheat and
corn at reasonable prices, they would be
obliged to pass them by and eat rice or some
other food staple that could be obtained at
prices within their means With apples, how
ever, the situation is very different The fancy
varieties that find way to alien shores. each
apple neatly wrapped in its individual piece of
paper, must perforce demand good prices
and consequently thus far the only sale is
among the wealthy or welto-do. Perhaps,
some day, if the craze for apple growing con-
tinues, we shall be producing so many apples
OF the poorer grades that our orchardists will
in self-defense have to seek market abroad
for the poorer or at least the cheaper grades
of apples.

Pearson's Weekly says
One OF the most interesting adventures King
George has had In disguise was a visit his
majesty paid to big railway goods yard some
years ago on an occasion when there was an
enormous pressure of heavy goods traffic. The
king, then duke OF York. went to the yard at

household. Both were dressed In the garb of
working men who were waiting In the yard
until midnight on the chance of being taken
on for the night shift If the work was specially
heavy.
Only few of the railway officials were aware
that the heir to the throne was standing among
the squad OF hungry men eagerly and anxiously
waiting the arrival of the foreman, who might
pick out some OF the most robust among them
to aid In shifting the mountain of goods from
the trucks to the clearing sheds during the

NJor nearly an hour the prince watched tAJ
work proceeding in the big yard under the
ehite glare OF the arc lamps with immense in

tering thoroughly into the spirit of their rough
but good humored chaff A few minutes before
midnight one of the railway officials who was
aware of the presence of the prince came up to
his royal highness and stood by him. A minute
later the foreman arrived and after casting a
