Pennsylvania Apple Industry.

Pennsylvanlans who have investi.
gated the apple growing industry In
Oregon are not very optimistic as to
Its future. One former York man,
who was in Harrisburg recently, said;
"Theer are only one or two orchards
in the vicinity of Grants Pass, for in.
stance, that are paying their owners.
Eastern grown fruit is far superior in
flavor, and as soon as the Pennsyl.
vania growers increase their output
and adopt the business methods Of
the westerners they will be able to
monopolize the market. Apple lands
in the west are selling at such high
prices that even though the yield be
large the return on the investment is
not great Other disadvantages are
high railroad rates, the cost of caring
for the orchards and safeguards
against frost" Another Pennsylva-
nlan who has been in Wyoming will
return to Pennsylvania as soon as he
has disposed of real estate interests
there and will grow Pennsylvania ap'
pies for a living,

About all of the farmers have their oats
sowed, some have their potatoes planted,
and some are ready to plant corn. Every
thing seems to be moving quietly along,
with nice little showers to moisten the

be good year, long to be remembered.
While the fruit trees are not so full of

THE State Democracy reformed itself at
Harrisburg last week by changing bosses
aud nominating ticket, part of which
has so frequently been licked at the polls
as to be looked upon as joke. Reiormer
Geo. W. Guthrie of Pittsburg was placed
at the head of affairs as state chairman,
and William II. Berry of Chester, the
standing candidate was nominated for
state treasurer. Robert E. Cresswell OF
Johnstown was named for auditor
general, and George b. Shaw, Joseph
Howley, G. r. Mclean and L. f..
Greenswalt we're nominated for congress
st-large. No doubt these gentlemen will
take their licking with as little grimace
under Leader Finn as they would have
under the former regime.

THAT William Finn OF Pittsburg,
furnished the money with which the
Roosevelt compaign in the 2Sth district
was carried on was brought out Friday
when John l.. Morrison of Greenville
filed his expense account as treasurer in
this district. His statement shows that
he received 81 $50 from Mr.. Finn, one
payment of $3.50 and another ofS1 900. All
of this except S4l 50 was either spent or
promised. The SUN of 1867. % was paid
out for newspaper announcements, clerk
hire, travelling expenses of Mr.. Morrison,
telephone and telegraph tolls, etc. The
sum of S23S.4 40 is owing to the Burns De-
tective Agency for Seeking election
frauds, and when this Is paid S44 80 will
be left. This, Mr.. Morrison notes, will
be turned over to the Roosevelt State
Committee. Mr.. Morrison states that he
is unable to file vouchers in all Of the five
counties and has, therefore, led them at
Tionesta, Forest county, the geographical
center of the district. 1t was said dur
ing the close of the campaign that Burns
detectives were at work in the district,
trying TO ferret out election frauds, but
the story was not generally credited. Mr..
Morrison's report, however, shows that
the statement was true.

In an opinion filed by the Supreme
Court, sitting in Philadelphia, the con-
stitutionality of the new school code was
upheld by majority of four to three,
Justices Fell, Moschzsker, Elkin and
Porter affirming, and Justices Brown,
Mestrezat and Stewart filing dissenting
opinion. In the opinion of the majority
of the court 1t is declared that act Of May
IS, 1911, was the product of the deliberate
thought of commission OF prominent
citizens of the commonwealth, who
worked upon the statute for several years.
After prolonged consideration it passed
two legislatures before final approval by
the governor, and the Supreme Court was
then asked to set it aside as uncopstitu.
tional. "This," said Justice Moschzsker,
1--WE cannot do and should not do unless
the alleged breaches of the fundamental
law are so glaring that there is no escape.
The constitution requires the legislature
to provide and support a thorough and
efficient system Of schools for the educs-
tion of the children of the commonwealth
and this is what was undertaken by the
code"

Danger of importing Potato Disease.

State Zoologist Surface, of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, Harrisburg, is
much interested in communication
which he received from valued CORES
pondent sending clipping from a news
paper published at ST. Etienne, France,
calling attention to potato disease which
is far worse than anything else now
known in America.
In view of the fact that many persons
are contemplating planting seed potatoes
from abroad this season, owing to the
scarcity or high prices OF home grown
SEED potatoes, the Department takes this
occasion to call definite attention to the
importance of growers avoiding this and
similar diseases not yet known in this
State, and making certain that they are
planting only good seed potatoes, even
though they may have to pay higher
price for the homegrown product.
The article states that the parasite
burrows after the manner of the intri-
cacies of a mine, and penetraIes the whole
vegetal organism. Having attacked a
single tuber it quickly contaminates the
whole bill, and from there spreads to the
neighboring plants. The infection
spreads with even greater ease in cellars
or wherever potatoes are kept. Ifa per-
son has the misfortune TO plant a single
infected potato in his field the entire crop
for that field is lost"

AS EACH succeeding Memorial Day
comes around we are brought to the
realization that in comparatively short
time veterans of the Civil War will have
gone to the great beyond, says the Punk.

10000 new graves to decorate. Each year
fewer veterans are able to turn out and
participate in the psrades, and it will not
be long before the observance OF the

brave men who fought for the preserys-
ton of the nation will depend entirely
upon the various patriotic organizations
of the younger generations.

PERSONS who receive fake newspapers
through the mails should not be iDfiu-
enced by anything they may contain.
These bastard sheets are not newspapers
at all, and really have no right in the
mails. They are always circulated
broadcast, when elections aie pending,
and usually contain matter which no de-
cent newspaper would publish. Some of
them appeal to religious prejudices, en-
deavoring to sntsgonize Professionalism
and Catholicism, others pose as temper
ance publications, temporarily, either for
blackmailing purposes or lambasting one
candidate in the interest of another.
Their missions are many, but they are all
OF vile, communicating nature. Such
publications are literary outlaws,
terfelt news dispensers, which have no
more right to circulate than counterfeit

In Justice Harlan's Footsteps.

MahIon Pitney, associate justice OF
the Supreme Court of the United States,
was playing golf at Atlantic City when
his wife telephoned him that he had
been elevated by the President to the
bench. Il resumed my golf game and
made the last hole" he says, in relating
the incident.
Any Individual who can learn that he
is to be an .associate justice of the high
est tribunal in the land and can then
drive with muscles unstrung and
put with steady eye demonstrates that
he has in him the characteristics of a
great man. One other sentence, how
ever, in Mr.. Justice Pitney's observa-
tions may be quoted Il fear" he says,
that it will be some time before l
become as great golf player as Justice
Harlan was"
Mr.. Justice Pitncy need not emulate
Justice Harlan's Dlf; but if ever he
becomes as great jurist as his distin-
guished predecessor, the country will
have no cause to regret his selection by
the President of the United States.
