A New Apple Country.

The province of New Brunswick is
a newcomer in the apple-raising COM
petition. At a. recent Canadian apple
show New Brunswick had on exhibit
tion 60 barrels, $50 boxes and 1922
plates OF the leading market varieties.
Until lately the apple industry has re-
ceived little attention in the province.
but the department of agriculture has
taken improved methods of cultiva-
tion; and 1t Is now predicted that
New Brunswick will become great
apple country. There Is an immense
area Of cheap land, and the climate
seems to be favorable for the fall and
winter varieties grown in New Eng
land and the middle states.

(By w. NJ KELLEY, New York;
In the production of cream that will
meet the demands of a fancy city
trade the care OF the milk and the
sanitary methods Of handling the
cows are the most exacting phases OF
business. Many people, when ham
ding milk. forget that they are deal
ing with a-food product. IL f'lth is al
lowed to get into the milk at aay
afterward can make amends for this
difficulty.
The chief necessity in improving
dairy conditions is to give the pro-
ducer such knowledge OF the right
methods OF handling and caring for
the milk that he will see the necessity
for such methods and know how to
manage his work to accomplish the
desired results.
In selecting cows for producing
cream 1t is to our best interest to Sc

an inherited tendency to produce a
large amount OF butter fat at the low

The factor of importance Is the san

A permanent hotbed should be so

bed, in which manure is to supply the
heat, a pit 2 by 21a feet deep, accord

By SENATOR"

CLEVELAND, O., June A.-Carl
Cashion, the Carolina mastodon, is grad
ually coming into his own. Under the
watchful eye of Jack Ryan, the big
fellow is forgetting his wild ways and
is fast waxing into big league form.
His performance in that third battle
in Detroit was even more gratifying to
i"Old Fox" Griffith than the nervy up
hill fight of the team with its victorious
rush to the front in the ninth inning,
Cashion, without being thoroughly
warmed up, was rushed into the game
heated words to Umpire Billy Evans.
There was a man on and only one out
at the time, but the big fellow worried
not at all about that, retiring the side
Evans was chiefly responsible for
walking Jack Onslow in the fifth inning
and the Tiger backstop scored on a
scratch hit that Morgan just barely
stopped near second base but couldn't
toss to first. In all other stages of the
contest the Jungaleers were helpless be-
fore the behemothic shoots and benders.
Raw and Crude.
When Cashion reported to the Ma
tionals last season he was raw and
crude. He delivered the ball with
noticeable jerky motion which was re-
Isponsible for most of his wildness At
Charlottesville Manager Griffith tried to
quite succeed. 1t remained for Jack
Ryan to turn the trick and, II Cashion
ever blooms in the big league garden,
ut will be through the untiring efforts
of Ryan.
Day after day Cashion has pitched to
Ryan and to the batters. He has list
lened to the advice of the veteran, grad
ually eliminating his jerky motion and
changing his style until now he COM
pares favorably with any inexperienced
pitcher in the business. He faces the
batter all the time and gets the ball
away with an easy motion spelling fu-
Iture success on the hillock.
Hard work seems to agree with
Sash and he now tips the beam at
20, an increase of twenty-five pounds
since he reported at Charlottesville this
spring. Furthermore, he is getting
every pound of this into his fast bali,
too, and when he learns his last lesson
on how to be major league twirler, he
