apples are relatively too long and too
uniformly red for the Wealthy.
The Bethel is an apple with which
I am not acquainted-never grew any
and never saw any so far as can re-
member. The only thing can do is
to turn to the books in getting de-
scription of the Bethel. The best
standard work on apples in the world,
so far as I know, are the two volumes
called ''The Apples of New York; by
Beach and Booth. In this great work
the Bethel is pictured and described.
Either these eminent pomologists are
mistaken or these apples are not OF
the Bethel type. Speaking of the
Bethel this standard work says :;

slightly comic, somewhat angular or
irregularly elliptical. l raise the

Herbert.
But are these apples Jonathans? l

thing like SIX carloads this year.
These apples sent from California
more nearly resemble our Jonathan

not differ from our Jonathans more
than any variety is apt to differ when
raised under different climatic and
soil conditions. This is the best |

of people will not eat as many apples
at So. 90 to $500 Per box.
6. Growers must ultimately be
satisfied with netting ten per cent OF
fair valuation of their orchards and
not expect to clear $1,000 per acre per
year. Many have gone wild on orchard
profits.
7. Thorough local organizations
with cooperation between local or
ganization to form a central selling
organization for directing the dis
tribution of the fruit to avoid glut-
ting certain markets, and for selling
direct to the consumer was favored.
All expense between the growing and
the consuming of the apple must be
reduced to a minimum.

TIMELY TOPICS FOR FRUIT
GROWERS.

By Geo. Severance, Superintendent
Western Washington Experiment
Station.
The superintendent and the horti-
culturist of the Western Washington
Experiment Station attended the
National Apple Show at Spokane last
week. The display was magnificent
and an excellent demonstration of the
merits of the Pacific Northwest for
apple growing. The programs held
daily in connection with the show de-
veloped some valuable discussions.
Some of the points brought out that
should receive careful consideration
by every fruit grower in the North
west are:
l. Growers should specialize in a
very few we'll chosen varieties.
2. Growers subject to the same
general conditions should grow the
same varieties as much as possible to
secure the greatest benefits of Co
operative marketing.
3. Growers and fruit organiza-
lions should lend every influence to
reduce the number of commercial
va1ieties in the entire United States
to fifty or less. An active movement
in this direction has been initiated: }
| The present number of recognized
varieties lies between three and four
hundred.
4. The public should be educated
to know the value of apples for main
tanning health and recognize the
standard varieties, and know when
they should appear on the market fit
to eat. Much injury is done to the
cause by placing various varieties,
attractive in appearance, but unknown
to the public, on sale long before they
are fit to eat.
The constant advertising of standard
varieties of apples in manner similar
to the constant advertising of break
fast foods, cigars, ETC., until Grimes
Golden, Northern Spy, Delicious,
Gravenstein. ETC., become as familiar
to the reading public as the term
"Grape nuts is recommended.
The careful naming OF all exhibits
at agricultural fairs would aid greatly
in this movement. Under the present
system of tagging exhibits, the aver
age visitor has no means of knowing
whether he is looking at Grimes
Golden or a Ben Davis, and the fairs
thus lose a large per cent of their
possible educational value. All eX-
hibits at the National Apple Show
we're labeled.
5. Growers must systematic their
methods and place a good quality OF
apples before the consumer at as low
a price as is consistent with legitimate
profits, if the market is to develop to
very large proportions. The majority

IN APPLE GROWING

ALTITUDE IN APPLE GROWING.
HI. e. Brown, Tiger, Wash, writes
under date of November Goth, as fol-
lows:
81 understand that certain varieties
Of apples require different attitudes
to attain their perfect form. I would
like for you to explain this to me. l
was advised not to plant Yellow New
towns in this elevation, 21OO feet.
What varieties would do in this
altitude?''
My understanding of this matter is
that altitude has nothing to do in
such matters only as it influences the
climate. The higher you go up the
shorter the season and the cooler the
summers The Yellow Newtown needs
a long, warm summer for it's full de-
velopment. If you we're to plant this
variety down on the sea level where
the summers are short and cool, the
effect would be just the same as 60
ing up the mountains till you reach
the same kind of climate. The alti-
tude mentioned by Mr.. Brown is not
very great being considerably less
than half mile, but [ recently pub
lished statement that apples had
been grown successfully in location
N EnIOra6n uh hn hoi n
mile or $3.50 feet. l understand from
my list of post offices that Tiger is in
Stevens county, and therefore east OF
the Cascade Range. Just how hot it
may get at an elevation of 21OO in that
part of the state | do not know nor do
| know how long their hot weather
lasts. | do know that in Kittitas
county very good apples are raised at
an elevation not much less than that
mentioned. Some of the finest
Spitzenbergs l ever saw we're sent to
me from Pechast1n in Chelan county,
but do not know the elevation there.
/ once lectured at farmers institute
at Chelan, a beautiful young city at
the east end Of Lake Chelan and saw
as fine fruit there as ever saw any
where. This fine fruit grew in the
hooks and pockets of the mountains
surrounding that part of the lake. l
do not know the elevation but l think
it must be nearly or quite that men
toned by Mr.. Brown. See what
others'are doing at the elevation you
mention. They can teach you better
than can on that point.
