SHEEP NOTES.

Visit the flock every day, and be
sure no harm comes to any animal.
Look out for sores that become
quickly infested with maggots. Clean
the sores and smear them with tar.
A suitable grain ration for them is
mixture of corn, oats and wheat
bran; and keep his highness by him
self at night.
II there are sheep dogs in your
neighborhood, get rid of them. Dogs
and sheep in the same pasture are an
improbable combination.
Do not breed ews until after they
are a year old.
Old, unthrifty ewes are poor prop
erty. Let them go.

THE APPLE CROP.

AS picking proceeds, the apple
crop shows that it was greatly over
estimated and prices are better than
was expected. The Fruit-Grower and
Farmer, above referred to, gathers
reports from the whole field to a
greater extent than any other paper l
know of. Here is what it says in
summarizing these reports in its
October issue: "Here are the most
interesting crop reports of the season.
They tell in loudest terms what has
been repeated in these columns all
summer, that the apple crop, while
large, has been much over estimated.
They tell of the intrigues of the buyer
to beat down the prices, and of the
remarkably poor price some crops
have brought. p"
In our case, we have consigned
some, sold some, and stored some of
our apples and we are coming out
better than we epected at one time.
Apples according to the daily press
of Seattle, are selling now from 70
cents per box up to So. % per box.
The yield of apples on our farms is
very large and with small margin of
profit we will have enough to keep us
out of the poor house except the one
we live in. We are not lying awake
of nights on account of the condition
of the apple crop.

AN OLD FRIEND WITH A NEW
FACE.
FACE.

The Fruit-Grower has been coming
to my study for a number of years
and j. M. Irvine, it's talented editor,
once visited me on my fruit ranch in
the Yakima valley. I esteem this
paper as one of our best exchanges.
1t comes to my table this month
October-with new face. This
valuable paper has enlarged it's scope
and now it comes as "The Fruit
Grower and Farmer. - The tendency
among farm papers is in the direction
of making them cover all crops grown
on the farm. 1t is we'll known that
paper published In the Northwest is
called "The Northwest Horticulture
ist' and yet it's matter covers all
phases of farm k-dairying, stock
raising and all forms of agriculture.
This paper is called "The Ranch"
which means in the west, a farm.
Horticulture is only one phase OF its
work, but it has it's poultry depart
ment, its dairy department., etc.
With such a man as j. M. Irvine at
the head OF "The Fruit Grower and
Farmer 1T is bound to be success.
Here's my hand, brother j. M. l.

A. Beach has this to say about this
apple: "Originated in West Virginia.
Fruit from the original tree was sold
to the New Orleans traders as long
ago as 1904. 1t has become generally
disseminated throughout the Ben
Davis region of the south, west aud
southwest, where it is often planted
for home use and is highly esteemed
as desert apple. 1t has long been
known in scattering localities in New
York and old trees of it are found in
some orchards, but it has not general
ly been planted. I think this shows
that Grimes is one of the old apples,
but of course not the very oldest. l
consider myself an old man-73-but
Grimes is ahead of me almost a half
century.

Strawberries have been grown for %
years and yet I have never seen but
few on the market. They are always
high In price. Can they be raised so
they will be cheap enough for general
use? AS l said in my former articles,
the very high price at which they sell
may pay a fair profit to the grower,
but should they be grown extensively
will they still payY I have known a
few persons who made money out of
everbearing strawberries but most of
it came from those who bought their
plants at high prices. I am willing
to hear from any one on this matter.

ferences must not stay progress.
Broad minds and warm hearts must
olaze the way and thus create galaxy
of stars, of which a great common
wealth may we'll be proud. Liberality
of thought and action, with keen
recognition of each others rights;
protection to ambitious capital and
fair and equitable dealing generally,
will force a millennium, yet in the
prospective.

THE MISSING ANADARkO MAYOR
OWNED MORE PROPERTY THAN
WAS THOUGHT.

A petition was filed before Judge
John H. Cotteral in federal court
Tuesday by creditors of former May
or W. VI. Plum of AnadarkO, askinS
an adjudication in bankruptcy and
the appointment of receiver. The ad-
Indication has not been made as yet,
but Thomas Kearse of Anadarko was
appointed receiver, and will take
charge of Plums assets, pending the
appointment of trustees.
1t has developed that the missing
man owned much more property
than was first thought, deeds for
a number of pieces of real estate
never having been put on record. IT
was stated Wednesday that con
siderable sum will be realized from
this property and paid to Plums
creditors.
II. w. Curry of Webb City, Mo-,
was in Oklahoma City Wednesday
and stated that the first report that
the First National Bank of Kansas
City holds $4,000 worth of Plum's
paper is incorrect. The bank had but
a small amount of the notes, and
they are fully protected by indorse-
ments, Mr.. Curry stated.
In addition to representing the
First National bank of Kansas City,
Mr.. Curry also is looking after the
interests of the National reserve
bank and William S. Wilson Or Kan
