GOVERNMENT FRUIT
MEN ARE WORKING
HERE

The United States department of
agriculture, in cooperation with the
railways of the northwest, is conduct
ing some very interesting experiments
and demonstration WORK in the hand
ling ard shipping of fruits from the
northwestern states to the eastern
markets.
pecially fitted up for the purpose of
cooling fruits Very quickly before
shipment, in operation at Puyallup.
Washington. These cars are equip
ped with the ammonia cooling process.
the fruit to be shipped is deuced to the
desired low temperature in from three
to six hours before it is moved in the
cars. and the results of the investiga-
ton thus far indicate that tender
fruits from the western coast IAN be
laid down in Chicago and points east
of there in better condition than they
can be shipped a short distance when
handled by the methods at present in
vogue.
The department did some work
along this line last year and the re-
suits achieved We're really startling.
They found that slightly different
methods of picking and handling the
fruit. even without proceeding. would
result in its reaching its destination in
a much better condition than when
handled as it now ordinarily is. With
preceding added to better handling
the North Pacific coast states border
ing will be able TO supply the markets
on the Atlantic coas with fresh fruit

some Investigations as to the time at
which different varieties of apples
should be picked for best results. that
they may keep the best in storage. 1t
has been demonstrated to a crtainty
that the ~orchardists are leaving their
Jonathans or the trees TOO long before
picking and that they are picking their
Rome Beauties too soon to have them
come out of storage in the best posi-
HE conditin. The department is also
making Investigations with other va
%rieties of apples as we'll as peaches,
pears. cherries and other fruits.
Berries Treated Similarly.
The department has been shipping
carloads of berries so treated from
Puyallup, Wash, over the Great Nor
thern railway TO Grand Forks. where
they are being inspected and the ad-
Vantaces of careful handling and pre-
cooling determined. The Great Nor

department in its work..
Later in the fall experts from the
department will he stationed at CASH

handling of peaches, apples and pears.
Two fruit experts are here at the
present and they are George w.
Dewey and Harold Bird. These two
men are at present AT the Grand
Forks Mercantile company carrying
on their work which is very interest
ing n instructive. Inside of a few
months the data gathered here will

MILL CLOSED DOWN
FOR REST OF
SEASON
Difficulty in Getting Logs
Ascribed as Reason
For Shutdown.

An unofficial statement was issued
this morning to the effect that the
big saw,nill of the Grand Forks
Lumber company, which was shut
down about June 20. would not start
up again this year. Difficulty in Sc
curing logs enough to keep the big
institution going is ascribed as the
ason The Red Lake river has been
exceptionally low for the past couple
Of Years and has interfered materially
with the sawmill's cut. The company
has millions of feet Of logs in the
Red river but the big log jam there
and the low stage of the water has
made it a physical impossibility to
get the logs to East Grand Forks and
consequently there has been nothing
for the management to do but close
down. The logs could be shipped in
by rail but this cumbersome and ex-
pensive method has proved to be too
difficult a way of keeping the plant
working continuously so it has been
dropped.

CIRCUS IS
SCHEDULED FOR
THIS CITY
Sells Floto Shows Will Ap-
pear in Grand Forks
During August.

Late in August this year the great
Sells Floto shows will come to this
city although the exact date has not
yet been decided upon. This circus
is well known throughout the coun-
try and is the best of its kind. 1t is
seen all over and is called the twenty
five cent circus. Walter Murphy,
general contracting agent of the COM
pany. said:
According to announcement made
yesterday. Grand Forks is to see an
other circus this Year. This time it
is the now famous Sells-I'loto shows,
which will he her late in August, the

The Sells-Floto company is known
throughout the country as the twenty
five cent circus company. In speak

all the old line shows adherer to this
scale of prices which prevailed two
decades ago.
The management of the Sells Floto
CIRCUS, however. for the past three
seasons, has inaugurated a new pol
icy, no doubt believing that in doing
so they could retain and hold the
greater portion of public patronage.
When the simple statement is
made that we have cut the regular

half. few people stop to consider what
this means in the regular totaling of
a seasons receipts. But coming right
down to figures, it shows a primary
discrepancy of almost $1,000 600, when
compared with the sum total of a
season at the old prices.
