he took no further interest in it what

Before I had discovered this trait in
his character l used to write and apol-

last he wrote to me: You need not
sentimentalize about my stuff. l send

But one felt lingering conjunction
long afterward about consigning the
fruits of so much labor to the waste
paper basket, and, after all, La

excused myself for mot sentimental

least whether his lucubrations do or

appeared to me that the making Of an

to write it. the other to cut it down,
and generally to cut out what the first

VERY CHOICE LOT AND
BUYERS WANTED THEM
Seventeen Carloads Loaded at Gle
Elum Are Now Going East and
Ten More Will Be Started To-
day From Toppenish

Yakima lambs have the honor of
having topped the Chicago market
for the present season. A. E. McGee
of this city, who sent shipment
through with Messrs. Agor and Prior
in the train of 81 cars which went
out from Yakima July 10, is the man
who gets the top figure. He sold for
pounds he nets $516 here which is a
splendid figure. So far as is known,
Mr.. McGee's lambs were the heaviest
of the entire shipment.
Success Was Expected
This was expected by the stockmen
here for he selected very carefully
before shipment, culling out SO dras-
ticly that he consented to take only
about so per cent through to Chicago
with him. That he decided wisely
is shown by the figures of the sale
and it is evident that the buyers It
the other end wanted just what he
had to offer. The MCGEE animals
were LANDED about the first of March
and by his selection he managed 10
get out an aggregation which aver
ed over those born in February. Mr..
Melee intends to ship the remainder
of his animals in September
no word had been received last
evening from Archie Prior, whose
lambs it was expected, would be
placed on the Chicago market yes
te, day.

PEACH CROP OF STATE
ESTIMATED TOO HIGH
Peaches Should Be Selling at 40
Cents Per Box or Better, Pro-
viding the Different Ones In
terested Stand Together

Estimates of 5000 cars of peaches
for the state of Washington for the
season of 1912 are entirely too high"
says II. NJ. Gilbert, of the Richey 4
Gilbert company
Mr.. Gilbert continued: at is al
ready demonstrated at Kennewiell
that their estimates are far too high,
according TO the information we have
received from we'll informed parties
there, many peaches being too small
for market on account of insufficient
thinning.
"Other districts report the same
conditions. Some pessimistic growers
of Yakima failed to thin properly,
and many small peaches not worth
picking are the result.
"Richey & Gilbert company, a.
though getting large portion of the
Carmen crop below the gap, did not
get half enough to fill orders.
Fridays wires indicate that some
Yakima operators are quoting lower
than there Is any need.
I'm order to lengthen out tn sfr
peach season, many of our statesmen
having taken orders for a car per
week for four weeks, Richey g. Gil
bert company will have North Yak
lima headquarters with the Yakima
Produce company on Yakima ave-
nue.
Mr.. Gilbert further stated that
growers having employed them to
handle several hundred cars they will
not enter the field as buyers but any
one desiring Richey & Gilbert com
pany to handle their fruit can see
Charles Raw, with the Yakima Prod
uce company.
Again quoting Mr.. Gilbert: "Peacn-
es In practically all markets are GO
ing into consumption rapidly Grow
ers should not sell at low prices Sc
lect the man you usually sell to and
let him have your peaches to the ex-
tent for which he has an outlet He
ought to get you 40 cents or better, for
your peaches, but he can't do it IL
others sell to his competitors at 25
cents and they quote out at 30.
'The peach season is not so short
as some think. Carmens are nearly
through below the gap. There will be
only a few aSlappys next week. and
very few Elbertas before August 20
to 25, week later than expected.
There is a long season. and every
body is eating peaches.
Growers. dealers and all growers
agents should cooperate and stand
for better prices. The thing to do is To
select marketing agent who knowns
where the peaches are wanted
1--WE ought to stand for dollar on
Bartletts. We never had a better crop
and If they are not centered in the
big cities there will be no glut of
Yakima pears"
