Apple Crop Estimate of 1914

The following is an estimate sub
mitted by Mr.. A. P. Bateham, vice
president OF the Northwestern Fruit
Exchange, Portland, Oregon, on the
number of cars of apples to be shipped
this season. The wide variation in
reports from the districts has been
taken into consideration and the whole
compiled as nearly correct as is posi-
BILE. By the collection of reports from
each district the general belief is that
the tonnage will be enormous, far ex-
ceeding former years, but Mr.. Bate
hams opinion of this is that the esti-
mate points skyward, out Of all proper
ton.
The indications as received are for
good grade this year in almost every
variety. When there is an exception,
it appears as though the variety had
been left out OF the scheme of things
entirely this year. Yakima, as usual,
will lead the shipping from the North
west, with Wenatchee districts close
second, and Hood River an increasing
third. The estimate as given, OF
course, are subject to the usual shrink
age, owing to storms, etc.
Mr.. Bateham hopes to be able to
give a much closer estimate by this
time next month, and one which will
indicate the marketing policies for the
coming season. plans are in full
swing" said Mr.. Bateham, to go
ahead with our distribution as tho we
could exactly tell just how many cars
OF apples we are going to market
While conditions may alter these plans
as the season advances, we feel pretty
certain of accomplishing our ultimate
aim in this respect. The export mar
kets will be dealt their percentage Of
the shipments of the apples going
through the Northwestern Fruit Ex-
change on an established, systematic
basis.
The apparent total apple crop of
the Northwest is $4,000 carloads, dis
tributed throughout the various dis
tricts as follows:

WILL TRY TO AVOID CAR SHORTAGE

Investigations by the department OF
agriculture indicate that shippers and
carriers are cooperating more closely
this year to avert car shortage in the
movement of the country's 100000
900 bushels estimated wheat yield.
While it would take 524 cars to
move the entire estimated production,
about So per cent of the crop usually
is shipped out OF the country where it
is grown. On that basis it would re-
quire approximately 303,920 cars to
carry this seasons shipments.
1t is the concensus of opinion that
the increase in car supply does not
keep pace from year to year with in
creasing need for cars.

PANAMA PACIFIC EXPOS'N
WILL OPEN FEBRUARY 10th
The Upper WenatChee Valley Should Be
Representatives, We Anything
to Exhibit

| The following letter, calling atten-
ton to the opportunity the people of
the upper Wenatchee valley have to
do some telling work for this section,
practically without cost, should receive
attention at the hands Of our fruit
growers. We have also valuable min
eral, mica, marble, asbestos and tale
that would attract attention at Frisco.
All these natural resources should be
on exhibition.
To The Leavenworth Echo:
We are particularly anxious that the
north central Washington country be
we'll represented in the matter Of the
physical exhibits at the Panama Pacific
international Exposition lin San Fran
cisco, commencing February 10th next,
and continuing until December l,
1915. 1t is estimated that twelve mil
lion people will visit this exposition
from all parts Of the world, and the
opportunity will be unsurpassed for
interesting prospective settlers of the
right kind to locate in your section.
The Washington State Exposition
Commission, with headquarters in Sc
attic, have worked out plan whereby
your community can get some valuable
publicity at very little expense. They
agree to take all exhibit material pro-
vided by the various communities, in
stall it at San Francisco in the name OF
the grower and maintain it throughout
the entire period Of the exposition at
their expense. The only expense your
community will be put to is in provid-
ing the exhibits. That should not be
difficult or expensive. Everyone should
rally and cooperate with your CONNER
cial club in bringing out fine supply
of your best products. If every fruit
grower or farmer would bring in some
thing the sum total will be sufficiently
large and good. Immediate action is
necessary, as the harvest season is on,
and if it is allowed to pass without
securing exhibit material, this great
opportunity will be forever lost, 1t
will be impossible to show any of next
years crops.
All exhibit material should be care
fully packed and addressed to the
Washington State Exposition Commits
sion, Seattle Wash.
Transportation charges from Seattle
to San Francisco will be born by the
State Commission.
For particulars as to rail transporta-
ton charges to Seattle consult our
nearest agent, or write to the under
signed. Yours truly,

afterwards sold for $4,000. A small

better than a bank account.

of the dpleted agricultural conditions
in Europe, it is predicted that America

Jar opener.

A hint to housewives: Old scissors
make a very serviceable fruit Jar
opener. Anyone who has struggled
with the obstinate top of fruit jar
will appreciate any little aid to the
opening process, and here is one Take
an old pair of scissors and grind the
broken ends concave, SO as to fit the
side of the jar top when the scissors
are open. Then bore holes near the
end of each ground prong. A stout
piece Of wire should then be inserted
in the holes and fastened securely so
that it will just reach around the Jar
top when the scissors are held open.
Now, by pressing the shears together,
the wire will take death grip on the
fruit-jer cover, so that It is easily
removed The device also comes in
handily in the canning season. when
the housewife wants to screw her tops
down firmly.

Girls Prefer Jobs
to Getting Married
By United Press.

BY United Press.
Chicago. Oct 5.--A few years age
when a girl left school she immediate
ly began to hunt a husband It's diff
ferent now. When a Chicago girl
leaves school these days she immedi
ately hunts a job. Then, when she
has demonstrated her ability to sup
port herself-and, perhaps. contribute
largely toward the upkeep of divers
brothers and sisters-she leisurely
looks over the male of the species and
selects one to suit her fancy.
All of this is indicated by the new
school census, according to w. L. Bo-
dine, superintendent of compulsory ed
ucation. His figures show there are
1878 males engaged in occupations
in the city, compared with 555,515 in
1909, while 236,S11 females hold posi-
tions against 149.S67 in 1909. The
men gained 36 per cent, while the wo-
men gained So per cent.
"These statistics show the women
of today are fast breaking away from
economic dependence of men, said
Bodine. Girls are not now marrying
just to get home. Statistics show
that marriages are not increasing with
the same percentage of gains as the
population"
Some of the occupations in which
women and girls of Chicago are engag-
ed, and the number employed, are as
follows Stenographers, 21.669; dress
1909; domestics, 34,073; ply
sicians, 529; janitresses, 725; book
keepers, 9977; merchants, 1875; tele-
phone operators ATT; millinerss 5461
