CLEVER WRESTLING
EXHIBITIONS SEEN
At BIG CARNIVAL
Turner, Americus, and Jor.
dan Win in Huge
Mat Tourney.

Two thousand wrestling fans who saw
the huge mat carnival at the Gayety
Theater last night are today declaring
that 1t was the most spectacular and
scientific exhibition of the sport ever
seen in Washington. With three big
matches, which included every style and
weight OF wrestler, the lovers of the
game for once had their fill.
The consensus of opinion is that the
bouts between Turner and Evans and
Americus and Perreln were tied for
honors, both having brought out many
features OF the game never seen here
before.
Americus and Perrelli put up two
| clever bouts, the former seeming to oe
| at a disadvantage on account of not
| being trained down. Perrelli showed
| himself to be a heavyweight wrestler Of
| the first water and he withstood the at
| tack Of Americus well.
The Montano-Jordan event was fast
from the beginning. Montana showed
| much ability and his strength stood him
| in good stead at all times. but the suave
cleverness Of Jordan was too much for
| falls. Montana falling to get a down.
During the evening a token in the
form of a watch fob was presented tc
| Joe Turner from c. w. Swan, wei
known in local sporting circles. Pa
O'Connor rendered efficient service al
| referee, his decisions at all times having
het with the approval OF contestants
| and the spectators Messrs. Machler anc
Miller were official timers.

Apples For All At
Reasonable Prices

to come back to the ideal condition
and sell all of our fruit to all of oul
people at reasonable price than to
sell the best of our fruit to fen
people at an exorbitant one?'
The above question is one to be
thought out by fruit growers. It il
the keynote of an article in the Ore.
gon Statesman for December, writ.
ten by H. C. Hetzel, Of the Oregon
Agricultural college.
Too much can not be said about
raising the best products. Too
much care can not be given to the
apple trade; the grating, pruning
spraying, thinning. picking and
packing. Cultivation and fertiliza:
ton are big factors in a profitable
orchard. After all this is done
however, there remains the question
OF economy in growing, in packing,
in marketing. I'VE are spending
too much money as growers. The
eastern apple growers can put 9
barrel of apples on the market fol
81 .25 and it costs us nearly 81 fol
q single box. We have:not learned to
make use Of the GULL"
Not only have we not learned to
make full use of the by-products Of
the orchard, but by catering to the
fancy trade. have we not neglected
to consider the ability Of the COM
mon people to buy? If apple crow.
ing is to be great industry of the
northwest. apple growers must look
to the manufacturing centers of the
east for the bulk Of their customers,
must compete with the apple growers
of the east. The fancy price or the
fancy fruit can not be ignored; it is
a necessary part of profitable or
charding. and yet "are our litho.
graphs and wrapping paper helping
to place our fruit within the reach
of the ordinary man. Every cent
we add to the expense of pattsng
that box of fruit on the market
limits the number'of people who are
able to buy"
Mr. Hetzel sketches the progress
of fruit growing from the time
when the apples were taken to
market in the bottom Of wagon,
through the barrel period too, the
apple box, then to the red, white
and blue wrapping paper for each
Individual apple, with pretty little
picture printed On each wrapper,
and adds: Judging from this rapid
advancement the day is evidently
not far off when some Websterian
Drained fruitgrower will tie pink
baby ribbon on the stem of each
apple, ard as a reward for this
brilliant idea a 50-cent increase
profit per box would be conserva'
tive estimate
Are working profits from a big
commercial industry to be consider.
ed as well as the large profits from
a limited industry? That is ques.
