APPLES CAN BE RAISED IN
INDIANA WITHOUT TROUBLE

There are no more reasons why an
indiana man should go to Oregon to
grow apples than he should go to Illi-
nois TO grow corn
FOR good while it has been conf
IDENTIFY asserted by horticulturists who
have investigated the subject that as
good apples can be grown in this state
as anywhere else in the country and
now we have had a. practical demon
stration of the fact by comparison OF
homegrown apples with Oregon apples
at the annual meeting of the Indiana
Horticultural society.
In fact. 1t is now convincingly claim
ed that In color, substance and preser-
walton the Indiana product is superior
to that of the west.
This accords with assertions that
have frequently been made by horti-
culturists of the middle states that.
while their apples were generally
smalle rthey were better favored than
the western apples; and with the i'm
proving methods 1t has been demon
strated that there Is no reason why
they should be smaller.
The production of such magnificent
specimens as Oregon sells to the rest
of the country at high prices is no
mere question OF soil and climate 1t
is a question of care, of cultivation,
pruning and spraying; of comprehen-
sive knowledge of orchard manage
ment and thorough and painstaking
work the year around.
The trees cannot be allowed to grow
up as they Will, but must be trained
TO grow up as they should, they must
be fertilized and cultivated properly
and they must be painstakingly spray
ed. not after 1t is discovered that they
need 1T, but before there are alarming
indications. for when these are dis
covered 1T is generally to late to have

banner apple crop that season. In
horticulture especially is the ounce of
prevention worth the pound of cure and
more.
The trouble with apple growing. as
well as the growing of other fruit in
Indiana Is that 1t has been regarded in
most cases as little more than a by
product OF the farm. The orchard is set
out and then left pretty much to shift
for itself. Instead of being fertilized
the ground Is also frequently planted
with other crops which have robbed
the trees of the fertility they needed
lntercropping in orchards is by no
means impossible. but 1t must be scien-
tihcally done and care must be taken
that 1T does not starve the trees. Some
times such orchards have borne fair
crops and sometimes none at all When
they did not bear, the farmer merely
said 1t was a bad year and took none of
the blame for neglect of his trees on
himself.
The really scientific and Industrious
orchardist does not have bad years
The only difference is that some years
are better than others. But in no years
he allows his trees to spread disease or
his fruit to become wormy. So, too
he picks and packs his apples with
care that prevents their being bruised.
and thus conserves their keeping quail
ties to the greatest limit.
All these things can be done In Indi-
ana just as well as elsewhere and in
fact. they are being done by men who
are getting large returns from their
orchards Our soil and climate are
exceedingly adapted to the purpose and
what is quite as important, we have
better shipping facilities and are closer
to the best markets, thus saving on
freight charges.-Public Officials

TIMES BUREAU,
AT STATE CAPITAL.

Indianapolis, Ind, July 17.--Slowly
but surely the inside workings of the
Tom Taggart faction of the Demo-
cratic party in this state on the subject
OF the nomination for governor are
coming to the surface. and it will not
be long until the whole scheme on the
part of the machine will be known
! Tasgart has been saying that he favors
the nomination of Samuel NJ. Ralston
Of Lebanon for governor 1t is said
that he has told Ralston that he is for
him. and 1T Is known that he has told
others the same thing. He said in
Washington the other day that Rails
ton seemed to be in the lead as can
didate. and he also had many nice
things TO say about Ralston.
But at the same time a number OF
the rock-ribbed. dyed-in-the-wooI,
blown in thu bottle followers of Tag
CART are talking in favor of the nomi-
nation of w. H. O'Brien, auditor of
state, for governor. They are telling
what a fine man O'Brien Is; that he is
a good politician. a good fellow and a
popular democrat; that he would be a
strong candidate, and that he could be
nominated If he would get into the
race and that he would sweep Indiana
as no other democrat could sweep it,
As stated above, the men talking this
way about O'Brien are genuine, radf-
cal Taggart men, and politicians are
wondering why they would be talking
this way when they know that Taggart
favors Ralston. They are men who
have followed Taggart in all kinds of
fights They never question his lead
ership. They go on the theory that
the king IS always right and never
wrong" So, when they hear Taggart
talking for Ralston it seems strange
that they would get out and talk for
OBrien.
There seems to be an impression now
thef OBrien will not make any an
nouncement at any time that he is a
candidate for the nomination for gov
crnor- This is believed to be a part of
the Taggart scheme. Taggart will
then go ahead and aid Ralston in a
way, unless he can talk him out of the
race. This Is believed to be one of the
Tasgart plans. 1t may be that after a
while the Taggart outfit can talk Rail
ston out of 1t on the pretense that he
can get something better or that that
since he stands no chance of landing
the nomination he may as well get ont

The fact that OBrien Is looked upon
as the Marshall campaign general for

allow so radical a Taggart man to
have anything to do with making up
the Indiana delegation to the national
convention. when it is known so well

Lake county bankers and moneyed men,
representatives of the firm came to the
county for a conference. After looking
over the field they decided that Gary
would provide a profitable field for
first class real estate investments. The
financial house then recommended that
a trust company be organized. with a
capital of such substance that it would
heavy investors
1t Is intended to organize a trust
company with 100000 or $3.50, 900 capt.
tai with a surplus ranging from $4,000
to $4,000. According to a representa-
tive of the Indianapolis institution the
merger of one or two Gary banks with
the new institution is not an improba-
bility as the promoters wish to make
the new ban kthe heaviest capitalized
in the city.
VIII Get Insurance SURPRISES.
The reason that the big insurance
companies have not invested in Gary"
said the Indianapolis man, lis that
there is no trust company here of suf-
ficient size to guarantee it's mortgages.
Now a bank with $4,000 capital is
liable to the extent of 100000.
If there is a good substantial trust
company here the insurance compa-
MES will have no hesitancy in placing
money here. They will then know that
IL the steel mills should shut down for
several months that the interest will
not be defaulted. Lack of a big trust
company is the thing that has kept
the outside moneyed interests from
buying your Gary mortgages.
VIII HIVE Much Money
Being in a position to make heavy
loans expect to build up large de-
post business in the local field.
The eastern insurance companies
want to get into Gary, as 1t offers high
rates with good security, and all that
is needed Is a trust company to take
care of their business interests here
Our firm is the Indiana outlet for these
companies and we have been frequently
asked to come to Gary. After a con-
ference with some Gary men and few
more bankers from outside Lake county
find that they quite eager to have
the new institution established.
While the new trust company will
be made up of Gary, Hammond and
Lake county stockholders, there will
be some Indianapolis and down-state
subscriptions"
