GERMANS PREFER
NORTHWEST APPLES

American apples are much appreciat-
ed in Germany and are brought by all
classes Of people. The most formid-
able competitor of the American fruit
in the German market is the apple that
comes from the Austrian Tyrol, one
which enjoys a we'll deserved and long
standing reputation for quality and
flavor There is no doubt, however,
that the sale of American apples in
this country could be greatly extended
if shippers in the United States would
be more diligent in the selection and
packing of fruit intended for this
market.
In the opinion of German fruit deal
ers more favorable prices could be
obtained for the American fruit if it
were more carefully graded, better
selected and packed in cases like the
apples imported from the Tyrol. When
packed in this manner the fruit would
stand the journey much better, would
decay less rapidly and could be more
readily inspected.
The following is a translation of a
letter received from a fruit broker of
the Central Market, Berlin, which was
written in answer to list of interro-
gatories sent from Consul Thackara:
During the past season American
apples in barrels have arrived in Berlin
badly damaged, owing to the careless
manner in which the fruit is packed.
American shippers do not us, the same
care in sorting the apples as in former
years. In most cases the barrels
contain apples of three or four differ
ent sizes and varying greatly in APP
pearance. The top layers are good,
while the middle and bottom rows are
very different both in size and quality.
''Apples are imported into Germany
packed both in boxes and in barrels,
but for the past two years the boxes
have been preferred, as the fruit thus
packed was received in better condition
and the apples were finer. During the
seasons of l909-l0 and l910-ll, apples
packed in boxes were imported from
the State of Oregon ard Washington.
The fruit was excellent and we'll
graded. Sorting the apples must
naturally be done by the packer, as
the German importer should not be
compelled to pay duties and freight on
unsorted apples, and besides inferior
fruit should remain in the United
States High grade apples packed in
boxes should be wrapped in paper.
cup to the present time California
apples have been received here only in
boxes. While they excel in quality the
boxed apples from eastern states, the
packing and quality of the Oregon and
Washington fruit were superior"
No official statistics are published
which would indicate the acreage or
yield of apples in Germany. While
the fruit is widely grown, the general
climatic conditions, except in few
| favored sections of southern Germany,
Bavaria, Baden, Wurttemberg and
SaXony that are contiguous to the great
Tyrolese apple region, are not favor
able for the production of high grade
fruit. There are also wet seasons
deficient in sunshine, and at certain
times of the year hail and storms
cause great damage to orchards. For
these reasons Germany is a large i'm
porter Of apples, the market varying
with the general industrial conditions
and the extent Of the home crop. New

OSAGE LANDS WITHHELD
UNTIL AFTER NEXT JUNE

Washington, Jan. 31-At hearing
of Oklahoma oil men before the In
terror department yesterday it was
determined that the Usage Indian
lands, not now covered by the Foster
blanket lease, will not be leased for
oil purposes until after the Usage ma
tional council meets next June. For
this reason no rules and regulations
or legislation at this session of con-
gress, looking towards throwing open
more than a one-half million acres of
Usage land for oil and gas exploration
and exploitation, we're drafted Monday.
1t is probable that the interior depart
ment will prepare new rules and regu-
lations next fall permitting the leas-
ing of Usage lands for oil and gas pur-
poses.

The number of divorces granted and
the causes leading, under our laws. to
the granting of them, is blight on
the fair name of Oklahoma.
In old territorial days it was stated
that divorces were permitted if the ap-
plicant could take up a residence be.
tween trains. Congress stepped in and
made years residence necessary be-
fore divorce could be obtained in any
territory of the United States.
Under present conditions, from the
number of divorce cases that are max

Anent the coming of Evangelist Billy
Sunday to Oklahoma City, citizen of
that town writes the Oklahoman as
follows:
Editor Oklahoma-So the Minis
terial Alliance is to invite Billy Sun
day to come here and poke the fires
Good thing; but is it not an admission
that the ministers are not doing their
fully duty? Whenever the governor
sends special prosecutor into a coun-
ty it is always regarded as an open
admission of the weakness of the eoun-
ty official. Have you not had expert
ence of that kind here? Why not the
home product? Wake up! There are
many families in Oklahoma City who
are now suffering from want of cloth
ing and food. Billy Sunday will TAX >
$40, 900 from this city if he comes here.
Why not give this to the poor, and
make better use of the religion the
people now have, rather than take on
a surplus probably not needed?
Haven't the people been bled enough
for one year?"
