Fruitvale. June 4. 1911:

Fruitvale, June 4, 1912.
Dear Sentinel: | have heard it
said so many times by men in high
and low places, that we are going
to have such bumper crep of fruit,
that ii will be well nigh impossible to
gather and sort and box it and get
cars to ship it out of the valley. And
| suppose there are some who are
wondering how in the world they are
going to spend their money. To the
latter class. | want to say. cast an
anchor to the windward for a time.
1t costs money to raise fruit. and a
full crop of peaches at Fruitvale and
west of Clifton means about 45c
box after freight and commissions are
paid. This is no guess work. ! have
harvested several crops peach crops
of from Z 900 to 10000 boxes mostly
Elbertas and running large percent
age of extras, and my returns never
showed prices for the season higher
than the above figures. There is
every indication of a heavy crop of
peaches. And | have seen no twig
borers as yet, and very little green
aphis, and | hope we Will get off as
easy with the codling moth, but do
not expect any such good fortune.
From appearances now the apple
and pear crop in this valley will not
be as heavy as indicated early in the
season. Winesaps are shy and other
varieties are not crowding as much as
some people would like to see. Still
| guess we will have all we deserve
and will probably be pretty tired
when night comes during October
and November. | haven't heard the
Sentinel say whether it is safe to
pile up the smudge pots yet, but sup
pose the matter has been overlooked.
1t will soon be time for the manu-
facturer to begin to hammer them
out again. And it must be seen to
that he has his place on the commit
tee on smudging next year. too.
Last Saturday there was man in

not raise anything in this valley

TERM OF SIX YEARS.

Probably nothing has had more. in- fluence in the advocacy of six year terms for presidents, with no second term. than the present political cam raign. The spectacle of an ex-presi- dent seeking to get hold of the reins of the government for a third term and bis unprecedented attack on the administration has made it apparent that some action should be taken. The people have always said two terms and out Being a particularly good man and the believer in good trusts, Roose- welt wants to go back again.
 This Is not the first time that the single term idea has been advanced but conditions have gotten to a point where the nations safety demands it. President Hayes and President Jack son both advocated such a law. but it was never given very serious con- si0eratlon. Now President Taft is committed to the change and the pro- posed legislation has the support of both parties. The sentiment in its favor Is general. and party leaders have declared it necessary. It Is prob able that the judiciary committee will report favorably on the Root bill for such a constitutional amendment The best interests of the country will be served by such a change and the president will in such a term have time enough to carry out his policies. lt will be an incentive to work at all times for the best interests of the country and not to plan for self-per- petuation in office.

consumer without encountering the usurious clutch Of the mfddleman. Des Moines was one of the unsuccessful But it has remained for the city of Rockford, Winnebago county, Illinois, to put to shame the way in which In- dianapolis treated the question of mar ket reform.
 Rockford is a city of 45.O00. about half as large as Des Moines and one fifth or one-sixth as large as Indian apolis. A writer in a recent issue of the Farmers Review tells of the ven ture. The city prior to 1911 had no market, the farmers selling to the grocers-which plan operates about the same as selling to the commission man, for in these cases the grocers reap the commission house profit. A farmer, who was a member of the Winnebago County grange, saw the folly of small prices to the farmer and high prices to the householder. With the grange's | indorsement a plot of ground was Ob- l tained under approval of the city. A campaign of publicity was carried on through the press and by means of | circulars. The farmers were urged to come and sell; the consumers to come and buy. Saturday, June 24, 1911, was set as the first market day. What hap pened is best told in the writer's own i words:
 T arrived at the market at s o'clock. | Not single gardeners wagon was in sight. We had advertised that the market would be open at 4 a. m. I 1 louged to disappear into some side street. People on their way to work would smile, and then pass on. OCca- sionally some housewife who possessed an abundance of faith would arrive with a market basket and ask if all the gardeners had gone home"
 Finally the public men advocating the market literally had to go out and drag | the farmers to the square as they came to town and headed for the grocery stores. The result was almost startling. l The wagons that did come were sold out in a few minutes. The market grew rapidly. There were three sales days a week The rest of the summer there were never less than eighty wagons at the market. Several times there were more than 100 and once there were IF. Record breaking sales continued throughout the season. The county grange, encouraged, appointed a com mittee to see that the market did not lag. The housewives of Rockford probably will enjoy cheaper produce this summer than last, for the market is to be enlarged. Indianapolis migh' have had the same excellent condition of affairs but for a council of obliqut views.

MACHINES AnNANrAeEous.

In their haste to get the preferen- tial primaries. something about which lttle was known except theory. many of the states pushed through the leg islaton without much thought or the experience of other states to help them. The result has been a ridicu- lous one in the states of Maryland and Massachusetts. This Is not because preferential primaries were held, though they failed to get out the vote. but because the laws adopted were of such nature that confusion resulted and the voters were at sea.
 This has given the voting machine advocates the opportunity Of calling attention to the fact that machines would have obviated much of the con- fusion, and they would have. For in- stances in both states where the opportunity of voting for a certain number of delegates was given. had the machines been in use. 1t would have been impossible to have voted for more than the number allowed by law. Ia Massachusetts there were delegates at large for whom each voter had a right Co select eight. Thou sands of votes were thrown out be- cause nine were marked and in some Instances sixteen. With the machine after eight delegates had been voted for. the voter is prevented from dis franchlsing himself, as no more can be voted for. II would likewise be impossible to declare a preference fol more than one candidate.
 The machines will not correct tho laws. but they are calculated to ob- serve them and see that the voter does not lose his vote for those ht wants to support. With the law ant iniricacies of the ballot marking tc contend with he has no such assur. anca

An Important Product.

MT. Editor: The editorial on Butter Production in this mornings paper gives the butter production of Connec- tielHt tn 1909 as 5,sf3 pounds instead of 5,949y0e0 pounds. have recently com piled figures showing the extent of the butter making business in this state during 191d, as follOwsi
 The ereameries of the state report a total output of 1,T56,s4O pounds. and there was made on farms and in pri- vate dairies about 100000 pounds, making a total of about two and a quarter million pounds
 One creamery in the state reports an output Of POP, 450 pounds, and there are five others that made over 100, ,000 pounds each.
 The butter making industry of the state is on the decrease owing to the constantly increasing demand, from the cities, for market milk. In 1900 there were T2 creameries in operation in Connecticut, with a total output of 5000, 900 pounds of butter In 1911 this number was reduced to 2s and the production was 1,756, SAC pounds.

HURTS CENTRAL AMERICAN
 POLICY.

Because of the guarantee clause. the treaties between this country and Honduras and Nicara qua are not likely to pass this session of congress at least. The committee being tied on the matter will not make a favorable report, which means a further delay for the measure which President Taft and Secretary of State Knox have been urging for nearly a year. Com ing so soon after the secretary's trip through Central America, the throw ing down of the policy win seriously hamper the raising of the money need ed by those countries. That, of course, has nothing to do with this country except that by transferring the loans to American bankers instead of Euro pean, the possibility of invoking the Monroe doctrine would have been overcome. The United States govern ment would see to the collection of the revenues of the country, which would insure beneficial results and at the same time such friendly offices by Uncle Sam would have it's effect in stimulating trade not only in those countries but would make good inn pressions on the other Latin-Ameri- can countries in which the United States has caused some distrust by it's Panama canal deal. The protecting influence of this country has been sought and the bankers are not in- clined to negotiate loans without such provisions Europeans now hold the manor Of +be doht rid9ap p.+;arS ond from them a separation is desired, the good work of this country in San to Domingo having given the plan en- couragement.
