A movement has been started
in this state to secure for Seat
tie the big 1915 encampment of
the Grand Army Of the Repub-
lie. The ranks of this organiza-
ton are rapidly becoming de-
pleted and it is the desire of
Washington citizens to enter
tain the veterans before the fl
nal opportunity shall. h a We
passed. Puget Sound, with its
delightful summer climate, is
pointed to as the most desirable
and logical place for the en-.
campment. This year the
gathering takes place in De
troit and last year it was held
in Chattanooga. On account OF
the advanced age of most of the
veterans the heat of the east
ern and southern cities has al
ways caused discontinue to the
old soldiers and a number OF
prostrations h ave occurred
Such a condition would be alb
sent if the encampment were
held on Puget Sound.

1914 FRUIT CROP ESTIMATE
President of Northwestern EX-
change Says there will be
5000 Car Loads

The following is an estimate
submitted by Mr.. A. p. Bate
ham, wee president of the
Northwestern Fruit Exchange,
Portland, Ore, on the number
of cars of apples to be shipped
this season. The wide varia-
ton in reports from the dis
tricts has been taken into con-
sideration and the whole COM
piled as nearly correct as is pos
sible. By the collection of re-
ports from each district the
general belief is that the ton
age will be enormous, far ex-
ceeding former years, but Mr..
Bateham's opinion of this is
that the estimate points sky
ward, out of all proportion.
The indications as received
are for a 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 northwest, with Wen
atchee districts a close second,
and Hood River an increasingly
third. The estimates as given
of course are subject to the US
ual shrinkage owing to storms,
and so forth.
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 COM
ing season. "Plans are in full
swing" said Mr.. Bateham, "to
go ahead with our distribution
as though 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 accom-
plishing our ultimate aim in
this respect. The export mar
,,kets will be dealt their percent
age of the shipments of the ap-
Piles going through the North.

established systematic basis"
The apparent total apple cror
,of the Northwest is $1,000 Cal
loads, distributed Throughout
the various districts as follows
Wenatchee, $500; yakima, &, 500
Eastern Washington, 1, 900,
Rogue River, 500; Western Or
egon, $50; Hood River, 1,2OO
Eastern Oregon $50; Idaho, 900

ROADS HELP THE CROPS
Government Studies Show How
Agricultural Output De-
ponds on Highways

That an improved road will
increase vastly the productive
ness of the area through which
it runs has now been satisfac-
torily demonstrated by studies
conducted by the United States
Department of Agriculture in
Virginia. Conditions in Spot
sylvania county were investi-
gated with particular care, and
the results have proved sur
prising. In 1909 the county
voted 100000 to improve forty
miles of roads. Two years after
the completion of this work the
railroad took away in twelve
months from Fredericksburg,
the county seat, 71,000 tons of
agricultural and forest products
hauled over the highways to
that town. Before the improve
ment of the roads this total was
only $4,000 tons annually; in
other words, the quantity of the
county's produce had risen more
than 45 per cent. Still more in
teresting, however, is the in
crease in the quantity Of the
dairy products. In 1909 these
amounted to 114,815 pounds, in
1911 to 273,O28 pounds, an in
crease Of practically 140 per
in two years. In the same time
shipments of wheat had in
creased SO per cent, tobacco 81
per cent and lumber and other
forest products 48 per cent.
In addition to this increase in
quantity the cost of hauling
each ton of produce was mater
tally reduced. In other words
the farmers not only produce
more, but produce more cheap
ly, for the cost of Transports
ton to market is of course an
important factor in the cost of
production. From this point of
view, it is estimated that the
100000 spent in improving
the roads in Spotslyvania
county saved the farmers Of
that county $4,000 a year.
|. In the past two years the
traffic studies of the Federal
experts show that approx
mately $4,000 tons of out
going products were hauled
over the improved roads in the
county an average distance OF
Is miles, or a total of $4,000
"ton-miles." Before the roads
were improved it was est.
mated that the average cost Of
hauling was 20 cents "ton'
mile;" after the improvement
this fell to IL cents a'ton-mile'
or a saving of 8 cents. A saw
ing of 8 cents per mile on $40,
900 "ton-miles" is SAL, ZOO
year. The county's investment
of 100000 in other words, re
turns a dividend of 40 per cen
annually.
Because of this saving, il
cases of this character, does no
take the form of cash put di
rectly into the farmers poke
there is a widespread tendenc.
.. to believe that it is ficticiou
, profit, while as a matter o
. fact it is just as real sourc
of profit as an increase in tn
price of wheat.
