If you expect to do grating this
spring of any kind you should cut
your scions now. Choose wood of
last years growth, from trees of
known productiveness; cut into CON
venient lengths and tie into bundles
and label. Place in sawdust or cool
cellar, or bury on the north side of a
building until grating time. If you
have poor varieties and the trees are
not too old, it will pay you to top
work them this spring; in three years
they will bear fruit, if properly cared
for.

Railroad officials estimate that in
the next two or three years the max
imum that can be moved by all roads
operating in the Northwest will be
10000 cars. The probable number of
cars that will be shipped out each
season during the next three or four
years is placed at from 10000 to
10000 ears; in other words, it will re-
quire from three to five months to
transport the crops to Eastern mar,
kets by railroad, In the meantime the
quality Of the same would deteriorate
ara the keeping quality be seriously
effected. Therefore, it is up to the
fruit grower 10 prepare to meet those
conditions by erecting large storage
warehouses at points Of shipment in
which to hold the fruit until cars can
be obtained. Luckily for this valley
we have an ideal climate for air-stor-
age plants, which can be erected at a
minimum Of cost. By building in
units as the production increases, the
burden viii not be as great as one
might expect, as today more than
half the apples grown in the North
west are held in storage at some
point and the grower foots the bill. at
a price that would almost build the
air storage plant in one season. In

PURvEYOR OF ENTERTAINMENT

When he was assistant secretary OF
state. Dudley Field Malone, now col.
lector of the port of New York. found
entertaining large portion of his Job.
He is a young man, and, needless to
say, is Irish. His full title was third
assistant secretary. There was little
that the government expected from
him except that he exert his natural
talents as purveyor of entertainment.
When a jaded potentate or prince with
a sallow, sorrowful look came to this
country upon an official visit 1t was
Secretary Malone's duty to take him
firmly In hand and show him what
bright little world this is. Uncle Sam
didn't worry about the expense. He
cheerfully paid the bills and only
asked that the third assistant secre-
tary make merry until the guest de-
parted from the shores OF this country.
Former Secretary Malone was one
of the most successful entertainers In
