Apples in South Oak

while the apple crop here is not
10 prolific an last year. says the
Gary Inter State, there will be.
enough to supply the market, and
they are of good quality. Robert
Willis has a large orchard that will
Yield several hundred bushels. There.
are a number OF others that win yield
good returns
While The production of apples has
never been systematically undertak-
en- throughout South Dakota, there
are young orchards developing here
and there that should command more
than passing notice q few years
hence.
AS a matter Of information, the
Gary paper may be apprised OF the
fact that of the finest young or
chards which is to be found in the
state may be seen about four miles
south OF Watertown, on the farm OF
MI. Robert Schulz. 1t comprises Hve
acres, which would be considered
small, perhaps, in a fruit belt, but Is
large for Somth Dakota. There are
about one hundred trees to the acre.
An apple tree, of a prolific charac-
tel, from fifteen to twenty years OF
age, having been properly cared for
from its infancy, which includes ju-
dicious pruning throughout Its exist
ence, with the fertility of the soil
maintained at the right point, will
produce, with a full crop, from fifteen
to forty bushels in a single

Assuming that every tree in Mr..

remarked, is improbable although
possible, Mr.. Schulz may have a train

town some Of these bright mornings,
We have known a single acre OF ap.
pies to produce in a year more than
Ave hundred boxer. It Is possible
for a single acre to produce a thou
sand boxes in a single year.
But imaginative speculation aside,
Mr.. Schulz should some day, within
the near future, be able to meet no
small part of the local demand for
apples.

more than a carload Of apples q

mum carload contains five hundred

Germany Thought to

Whether Germany has beer check

undrum, although the allies claim
that the German advance has been
definitely stopped, and Y thrown
back on the right.
There seem to be grounds for the
belief, at all events that things have
not been going as Germany originally
planned and there is evidence to
show that the allies have massed a
large number of troops In the Ger
man front. For the first time since
the war began the allied forces seem
equal ii numerical strength 10 the
German, SO that there may be truth
in the Paris claims that the Germans
have been checked.
But while the fighting between the
Germans and the allied armies APP

WILSON AND CLARK
SETTLE DIFFERENCES

Washington, Nov. 27.-President
Wilson and Speaker Champ Clark
have buried the hatchet and from
this time on there will be no cloud on
the horizon between the House end
of the Capitol and the White House.
Within the last two weeks,
President Wilson has sent the
Speaker a personal letter well calcu-
lated to smooth out any difference or
misunderstanding that may have ex-
listed. While it is not possible to pro-
duce the letter, the fact that it ex-
lists is vouched for by persons in po-
sition to know to a certainty.
The presidents letter is said to con-
tain even elaborate professions Of
friendship for Mr.. Clark and apprecl'
alton of his services to the admins
tration, to the Democratic party ant
to the country. This move of the pres
ident's is in line with the making o.
peace with Col. George Harvey anc
Col. Henry Watterson, with whom hi
broke in 1912, and who recently smol
ed the pipe of peace at the Whit
House with the chief executive.
1t is understood that President WI
son had been misled in forming hi
estimate of Speaker Clark and hold
ing more or less aloof from him.

OPENING DATE OF

FACTORY IN DOUBT
The following letter from D. 9.
Biggs of St. Louis, treasurer of the
International Shoe Co., regarding the
opening of their Mexico plant, will be
of interest to everyone in Mexico:
st. Louis, Mo-, Nov. q, 1914.
Col. R. NJ. White,
Care The Mexico Ledger,
Mexico, Missouri.
Dear Colonel White:--
Answering your favor of the Gath
will state that l have taken up the
matter with the head of our Factory
Department, and just at the present
time they cannot state definitely
when they will be able to resume op-
GRAFTON. We are now taking our in
ventory in all of our factories, and
they have been closed for a week or
ten days.
Business in the South has been very
stagnant for three or four months,
and we had large stock Of goods on
hand, and until business conditions
show a tendency to improve, it is
very unlikely that we will resume ac-
tive operations. We are very much
in hopes however that it is only .
matter Of few weeks until we fine
that we can open up and go aheac
and run our factories to their full CO
lpacity.
Regretting extremely that am moi
in position at this time to give you {
more encouraging report, but witt
the assurance that we will open VI
this factory at just as early nom
ent as possible, and with very bes
personal regards, ] am,
Respectfully yours,
D. c. BIGGS.

A Safe Judgment.

In these days of multiplicity of
newspapers, no class of people have
a more important choice to make
than our farmers. "Too many farm pa
pers" is an expression often heard.
Yes, there are lot, all of value, doubt
less, but some are so clearly better
than others that it seems easy to
choose.
Take the Chicago Breeders Ga
zette" as an example Of super-excel-
lence and super-value at the price,
6, 90. It is so easily the ranking
leader of the farm press tht t it comes
first in the hearts of all who know
it. We will send it one year in connec
ton with the Weekly Ledger for SITE.
If that is hot case of ''bargain coua-
te." we give it up. dw1t
