cannot put up a number one package
Of apples II he hasn't the apples In
stock" This Is j. II. Howard of Ar
cadia, who has made a reputation
through his fancy fruits.
High Cost Of Selling.
A number Of fruit growers take the
position that nothing is gained by
making an honest pack. One of these
men Is George c. Gaze Of Fenville.
who says: Last year | sold my ap-
pies for $1.65 for green and 81 for red
stock. was very careful in packing
this stock and packed straight. The
apples sold In Louisville, KY. at $375
regardless Of color. Who made the
money!"
Again, fruit grower living near
peninsula, who thinned his Wealthy
apples In the summer and packed
them with care, discovered that his
neighbor received exactly the same
price for windfalls as he did for his
fancy fruit. He further discovered
that the same commission man han
died both lots of apples.
A Mason county fruit man, who IL
greatly interested In the question of
better prices, is r. C. Sabin, whose
farm Is to the south of Ludington. He
says: THE only way out of It Is by
legal enactment, Let us have uniform
grading, packing. marketing. Compel
every packer to put his name and
grade on every package"
A dozen miles to the south of Mr..
Sabin's farm Is Benton Gebhart's place,
ard Mr.. Gebhart believes that a por-
ton Of the blame for the poor packs
of the past should be laid at the door
of the apple buyers. He recently
said: THE local buyers and packers
In nearly every fruit center of the
state are far more at fault for such
poor packs than Is the average grower
of the apple"
Packing Association Needed.
One Of the old-time men OF Benzie
county Is r. b. Reynolds of Bendon.
who has served his county in the state
legislature. His view upon the apple
problem are expressed in these words:
1T seems to me that in communities
where the fruit raised Is sufficient to
warrant It the only way to guarantee
uniformly honest pack is to have an
association and packing house." The
same idea Is advanced by Andrew
Thornsen Of Ludington, who says: II
think the farmers ought to cooperate.
That is, have a packing house where
everybody can bring his fruit" AL
most the same thought Is expressed
by Oscar II. Petersen OF Northport
In these words: Il am ardently look
ing forward to the day when barreled
apples will not be faced. but be uni
form throughout"
From these many opinions from the
different parts Of the Western Mich
gan territory 1t Is apparent that the
time Is ripe for a positive movement
for a more uniform pack for the fu-
ture.
p. G. Gilbert OF Traverse City has
drafted bill which he is submitting
to the legislators from the Grand Trav-
erse section of Western Michigan.
which bill Is along the lines of requir-
ing fruit packages to be marked and
requiring that the contents should con-
form with the markings. 1t is quite
likely that the bill, with such modifica-
tons as may be suggested by the fruit
growers, will be enacted into law by
the present legislature.
With a standardized pack, Western
Michigan fruit will easily take the
lead in the great consuming markets
because of its high quality and delight
full flavor.

MARRY TO BECOME MEN.

In Korea Males Are Looked Upon as

The Koreans marry very young. gen.
orally between the ages Of twelve and
fifteen. For woman to reach twenty
without marrying is considered a ter
rible thing. A popularity Of these
weddings is that they would appear to
be a matter Of interest to every one
except the parties mostly concerned.
who otter see one another for the first
time on the wedding morning. This is
because In a Korean household the
boys are kept apart from the girls, the
father and the sons occupying the
front Of the house and the mother and
daughters living in the rear Of the es-
tablishment. Moreover, in their social
life the boys are not allowed to mix
with the gentler sex.
The parents and friends arrange the
match in accordance with their own
interests, and If both parties agree and
the bargain is concluded the formalt-
ties are Of the simplest. There is no
religious ceremony and no legal con-
tract.
Early on the wedding morn thS best
man arrives to tie the bridegroom's
pigtail In a knot on the top Of his head.
This not only remains forever as an
outward and visible sign Of his condi-
ton, but entities him t6SSear hat for
the first time in his life and to be
treated as q man and enter public life.
He msy be mere child. twelve years
Of age, but he has no longer any right
to play with his boy friends and must
choose bis associates among old men.
He has now all civil rights and is
expected to behave accordingly. If. on
the contrary, a man is unable to afford
the luxury Of a home and wife. he
may reach the age Of fifty, but be must
still wear his pigtail down his back,
has none Of the advantages Of citizen
ship and is expected to play with kites,
marbles and such like. ANY folly be
may commit is excused in the same
way as the naughtiness Of child who
is not responsible for his actions.
The wedding ceremony itself IS most
simple. The whole function consists Of
q procession when the bride and bride
groom are conducted by their respect

first time. They merely glance at one
