LESSONS OF A YEAR IN
ORCHARDS OF THE VALLEY

Editor Press-Dear Sir: The past
year has marked the greatest develop
ment of the fruit industry since the
valley has been settled. Many little
questions have been answered as T.
The success of certain fruits The
fruit industry. taken as a whole, has
made most satisfactory advance
ment.
The past winter was the severest
test that we have ever had, and with
the exception of the lemon tree no
harm has been done. The orange and
grapefruit recommended themselves
for Imperial valley. This spring has
been the worst for frosts But the
apricot and peach trees have their
usual heavy crops. and show no signs
Of the frosts.
and this year some very fine fruit viii
Le raised.
The almond is fruitng finely in some
localities. the trees being loaded down
With fruit.
This year should convince III, most
skcptical person that The raisihe of
fruit in tl.r lmrntid valley has a ve.y
bright future.
A great many persons glory III QUE
success as 4 cotton country. We shut.
glory III cotton because it is thc fiuau-
cial ladder to success in fruit raising
The question is often asked: Why
Is it that the farmers do not plant
more fruit? There are several an
important one is that they could see
more money i'll something else, ami
as the planting Of an orchard WAS con
siderable If an expense the most If
them We're not willing to run the risk
But the past year has worked out The
financial question in the planting pf
orchards. The planting If an orchard
entails lie expenditure Of at least Si25
an acre before any returns can he cX-
pcctcd. But since The long staple cot
ton las been established as a big pay
ing crop we will he able to plant or
chards and cultivate cotton in the or
chards until The trees begin to bear.
and make profit Of St2J of of The
cotton. This makes difference Of
$3.50 an acre in the planning and car
ing for an orchard now and year ago.
The fruit industry Of Imperial valley.
There are but few localities THAI
up the fruit industry as the long staple
cotton gives to Imperial valley. We
nave had no crop that we could pro-
fitably cultivate in an orchard to pay
the expenses. Cantaloupes and vegc-
tables We're out Of the question. They
could not be depended upon. SO the
fruit industry had TO wait until some
thing was discovered to meet and f.
nance the expenses of young or
chard.
Our hardest problem has been solved
and if any one is interested in fruit
culture the trees now growing in I'm
perial valley speak palmer than words
to them, and all that you have to do is
to visit the valley farms to learn %
your own satisfaction that fruit trees
are very fruitful in the Imperial valley.

BERLIN, April S.-Thc German en-

who is not at all the fire brand his
critics sometimes picture him. This
vast sum is, among other things, to add
100. 900 men to the military wall along

the agitation for increased armament
came first from the German people

It grew out Of lie Balkan war and
the possibility Of Slavonic encroach-

A different view Of the European sit
uation apparently is taken by Prof.
Hans Delbrueck Germany's foremost
historian. who said that he considered
Germany in grave danger Of actual war.
The appeal to the nation for the
unprecedented and enormous appropri-
alton is realization of the grave dan
ger that Germany finds herself con
fronted by today" he said. Germany
Is in terrible danger, the gravity of
which cannot be exaggerated, of being
involved in war that we do not
desire and are seeking to avoid.
THAT danger is Russia, not France

The success of the SlayS in the Balkan
war against Turkey, Russia is pursuing
relentless policy which, if hot ourbed,
cannot but lead to war. 1t is playing
a strong hand in the Balkans, encOur-
aging Bulgaria and Servia not to ac-
cept reasonable peace terms from Tur
key; advising Montenegro to stand ont
against Hungary; stiffening
Bulgaria to oppose Roumania and 9TH
erwis0 taking hand in the Balkan
tangle.
"Austria's strength as German ally
has been largely sapped by her own
troubles in the Balkans and the German
government, therefore, is but doing its
duty in preparing for any eventuality.

replied, "but the same pan-Slavic spirit

"Then the big European war would
be on, and God only KNOWS where It

that there was an agreement be.
tween the sugar trust and the beet
sugar interests by which the price
OF refined sugar was fixed in every
state in the Union. | have as
serted that that price was the
trusts New York, New Orleans or
San Francisco price plus the freight
to the point of consumption.
l have charged that, because of
this arrangement, the people of
Colorado and other western states
which produce beet sugar were
compelled to pay more for sugar
made in their own towns than the
same sugar was sold for 1000 or
1000 miles from the point of pro-
duction.
When | first made this assertion
on the floor of the House the effect
on the champions of a tariff on
sugar was little short of amazing.
| thought they would explode with
indignation. The president of the
American Beet Sugar company
publicly branded me as a con-
scienceless prevaricator who was
traducing the promoters of great
industry. One of the sugar" con-
gressmen read this gentleman's
letter to the House with great
gusto. At the time | replied to
the attack with some vigor, pre-
senting the facts l had in my pos
session.
CONVINCING EVIDENCE.
Since then l have come into
possession of copy of the selling
agreement entered into between
the same American Beet Sugar
company (Which, by the way, owns
three factories in Colorado) and
the sugar trust in 1903, and which,
according to its terms, was to con-
tinue in force for ten years.
This agreement bound the sugar
company to sell all its sugar
through the trust and to pay the
trust commission of one-quarter
of one cent per pound on all sales.
1t was estimated that this com
mission would amount to 100000
annually.
The trust, on its part, agreed not
to sell its sugar for less than its
"open price at points of produc-
tion'-that is, New York, New
Orleans or San Francisco plus
freight to point of consumption.
Here is a copy of the agreement,
and / do not think any of the paid
defenders of the sugar trust will
dare question its authenticity:
THE AGREEMENT.
"Selling agreement between the
American Sugar Refining COM
pany and the American Beet Sugar
company.
Dear Sirs: Following the con-
ference which we have had with
you we put in writing our proposal,
as follows:
"You (the American Sugar Re-
6ning company are to be our su-
pervising agents for the disposal
of our (the American Beet Sugar
company product, as hereinafter
stated, and for your compensation
YOU are to receive one-quarter cent
per pound on all sugars sold and
collected for by US, accounts to be
submitted by us to you at your
office on the Goth of each month
for the preceding month and pay
ment to be made at that time. The
arrangement is to commence with
the season of 1904 and is to con-
Time for period of ten years

itStiou upon ouIb. 4tS eSoeuCo 10
that we shall have your hearty CO.
operation along the lines stated"
1t is because OF such arrange
ments as the above that the people
of Colorado, the greatest beet
sugar producing state in the Union,
are paying 81, 100000 more per
annum for the sugar they consume
than they would pay if the tariff
on sugar was removed.
REPUBLICANS AND FREE SUGAR.
l observe that the Republican
press of Colorado appears to have
gone over, body, boots and breech-
es, to the sugar trust, and is print
ing the material supplied by the
sugar trusts press agent without
crossing "T' or dotting an az"
l presume these Republican ed
itors do not know that the Demo-
cratic party was not the first to dis
cover the virtues of free sugar and
that great Republican leaders have
championed the doctrine. For the
enlightenment of these gentlemen
/ append an extract from the speech
delivered by the Hon. II. w. Hard
wick in the House on April 2Sth:
Let me refer you to several in
stances in which our political ad-
versaries have advocated free sugar.
read first from the speech of
William Mckinley delivered on
this floor on May 20, 1890, when
that distinguished gentleman pre-
sented the Mckinley bill:
"'l would have preferred, Mr..
Chairman, if the article of sugar
could have been left in the tariff
schedule upon the dutiable list.
This, however, was not practicable
in the presence of an almost uni
versal sentiment in favor of the
removal of entire duties upon this
article of universal family use.'
again, hear the Hon. Nelson
Dingley during the same debate
on May 10, 1890:
1.-The duty collected on sugar
and molasses the last fiscal year
was 800, ,975,610, or nearly two cents
per pound. Adding to this the in
creased cost of 275, 100000 pounds
of sugar produced in this country,
equivalent to the duty of two cents
per pound, and the duty imposed
on these articles was practically a
tax Of $65 800, 900, or one dollar
per head, on the people of this
country.
"Inasmuch as there is scarcely
another article of common use not
now on the free list which cannot
be promptly produced or made here
nearly or substantially to the ex-
tent of our wants, the transfer Of
sugar and molasses to the free list
will afford conspicuous relief to the
people Of this country
81 next read you from a speech
of Hon. Joseph G.. Cannon of ILL
nois, who on May 20, 1890, said:
"'Mr. Chairman, the placing of
sugar on the free list will relieve
each inhabitant, rich and poor, of
one dollar per annum of tax and at
least fifty cents of extortion levied
by the sugar refiners.
"'My principal anxiety is to
place sugar on the free list and re-
lieve the people from this great
burden of taxation
"In 1894, when the Senate amend.
ed the Wilson bill, the late Sen.
ator William b. Allison of Iowa
said on June s, 1894:
eff had my way, l would strike
