SHOULD KNOW HOW TO SELL.

The problem of marketing is the real
puzzle in the agricultural situation to-
day, says the Denver Republican.
In spite of all the arguments for
raising greater crops, the farmer is
coming TO understand that getting
what he has TO market is something
that is going to take much of his
thought and energy in the future. Pro
perly marketed. there is no doubt that
this country has ample foodstuffs for
all. in normal crop years. The ques-
ton of local markets is puzzling
enough. complicated as ii is by mid
clemens associations and bad roads
and bad storage facilities. After the
problem of the local market has been
solved. there is the foreign field. which
has hardly been touched, according to
the statements of our foreign repre-
sentatives.
There are many places where Amer
lean apples, and particularly those
raised in Colorado and the Northwest,
would command a ready sale at high
prices. yet apples are never found
there. In Brazil. for instance, we find
that according to official report, fresh
fruits from the United States last year
increased only $4,000 of total in
crease of over 100000 American ap-
pies. now much sought after, would be
sold in much greater quantities. if a
branch Of one of the American fruit
associations were opened in Rio de
Janeiro. Fancy apples that can be
landed for 81 a box are sold TO fruit
stores for SO. which high price pre-
vents them from becoming popular.
The same observations apply to Amer
lean canned fruits and dried fruits.
Here is a case to appeal to Wal
lingford. Why not organize an Amei-
can fruit association in Brazil and Sc
cure this market othe American ap-
pie grower? Brazil offers only one
case ont of scores where American ap-
ples can be disposed of at fancy prices.
We, never are heard of, while in this
country the fruit often rots in the
richards because the local market has
struck a declinee.
Markets, worldwide aud local, must

the farmer who knows how and where
to sell who is going to score the big
gest success in the "farmins future.
The time will come when letting n GRO
ut any kind rot on the ground viii be
regarded as nothing short OF criminal

With a marked gain of six points at
the state rifle competition just held
at Golden, the team representing the
local company of national guards of
Colorado felt justified in composing
and singing the above limerick. Prior
to their present effort they were but
one from the bottom of the list OF their
class, but their recent shoot advanced
them to the top place.
The team which went to Golden re
turned Thursday afternoon last and
were highly elated over their success.
In competition with many OF the best
rifle shots in the state, and many Of
the competing teams indulging in stea-

they did not expect to wrest any OF
the badges, medals or laurels, but they
were fortunate enough in passing
many of their more favored competi-
tors. The guards are now urging up
on Captain Charlesworth for a rifle
range of their own, and a requisition
