WHY FRUIT GROWERS OF w.
N. C. SHOULD ORGANIZE,
State Division OF Markets Believes
That Rich Opportunity Awaits
Western Car. Fruit Growers.

Mr. VIM. r. Camp, of the Division
of markets, believes that the apple
growers of the western part or the
State should organize.
An organized efort to go after mar
kets and to systematically distribute
the crop will bring better prices and
at the same time be the best adver-
tisement to encourage the growth OF
the apple industry of Western North
Carolina. The growers, demonstra-
ton agents. the boards OF trade, the
banks, and the railroads should be
united on this movement.
The grant by the Southern Railway
of the storage in transit privilege to
Asheville will make that place a nat
ural distributing point for Southwes-
tern North Carolina. This means that
a grower in .Waynesville or in any
other town to the west OF north OF
Asheville can ship apples into that
town for storage or inspection. Then
the fruit can be shipped out at a bal
ance of the through rate to the point
of destination. A through rate from
point OF origin of a product to its final
destination is much cheaper than a
combination of locals. All territory
to the north and west of Asheville
can now organize to distribute their
fruit through a commomn joint sales
agency.
Only the growers Of commercial
apples, that is, apples which have been
properly sprayed, should be allowed to
come into an organization during the
first year. Gradually those who do
not 10 properly spray, grade and
market their apples will find that the
organization is getting better prices
and will be more easily induced to fol-
low the standard laid down by the
organization. AS fast as the growers
can put up a commercial plant they
may be safely allowed to come into the
organization. Apples this year have
been largely sold in bulk, for about
thirty cents a bushel. Through or
our fruit will be disposed
of more and more in barrels and bring
the. community the larger returns
Of a standard pack and improved
methods of distribution.
If only those growers are included
IN an organization who can be relied
upon to adhere to the rules for a uni
form grade which the membership
and inspection will be reduced
Possibly the cost of maintaining a
packing plant may be saved. |
For growers who have to hire their |
done it may be a saving to
their fruit graded on a large
at a central plant. The original
,ost of such a plant and the expenses
maintenance may be assessed upon

proportion to the number Of trees
owned or amount of fruit handled.
But for growers who's do much of theif.
own grading, or can cheapIy secure
the help to do II, the expense Of pack
ing at a common packing shed would
be increased. In any event an organ
ization can better enforce a common
standard and develop a reputation for
a given brand Of apples for a whole
community than the Individual grow
er.
Through a joint sales agency the
expenses of travelling agents and q
telegraphic service for finding and
keeping track of marketsaarez greatly
reduced. A better check on cars en-
route and more intelligent diversion
of shipments may be secured. NO
market need be overstocked and none
undersupplied. Cars a be loaded
with the kind and grade of fruit suit
able for the market which the car is
to be sent. The time in whichsou u ap-
pies are ahead of the Virginia crop
could be better utilized. Better terms
a be made with jobbers.
A similar movement should be or
ganized to distribute the apples OF
Northwestern North Carolina with
Greensboro as a distributing point.
When the apple growers of North Car
DINA, Virginia, New York, and Mis-
souri, are organized like those of the
Pacific northwest they a hope 20
distribute their fruit with the same
af~icinnev az at nreSent ia achieved i'll

may receive bulletins or other
information by writing to the Division

What After Safety?

Everybody from Dan to Beersheba is
now thoroughly convinced that safety
first" is the proper thing. 1t may not
always be possible to agree upon
whose safety 1t shall be, but considered
wholly in the abstract anybody caught
putting anything ahead of safety in
these enlightened days of peace and
good will would have TO dodge anath-
ema the rest Of his life.
Indeed, so amicably and universally
settled is this problem of safety
first" that many are wondering IL we
shouldn't now stop talking about it and
commence to consider what shall come
after safety. Safety, although the first
thing, is not the only thing. What
shall we have for second? Any sug-
gestion, however foolish, will be well
come.-Life.

frappinQ Baboons.

Hagenbeck in his book says that bah
oons are caught in traps made much
like the huts Of savages. Food is put
into the huts. and once the balloons go
inside trapdoor closes behind them.
Outside balloons make a great to do
and urge the prisoners to escape.
When the trappers come the captured
balloons are terror stricken and try to
force their heads through the walls
Of the huts. One baboon was caught
three times in the same trap, and sew
eral when turned loose got back into
the same trap a second time. When
the balloons are carried away all their
comrades thereabout climb into trees
and scream out to the prisoners, who
answer in sad, mournful voices. On
one occasion some big Arabian balloons
were trapped, when 1000 or 5000 bab-
oons hurled themselves upon the trap
pers, who had hard work to save them
selves with firearms and clubs. AS the
trappers were forced back the victori-
GUS balloons tore up the trap and turn
ed loose the captured balloons.

Women Who Make Living Dearer.

Some people interpret rare" as mean

but with the whole interior raw. This
is far from correct Interpretation.
The albumen should be coagulated, the
fibers really cooked, but the juice may
be yet red or pink. In medium" there
Is still some pink left in the meat.

while we'll Gone means no pink color
in either juice or fiber, but not the

The quantity and kind of meat used
by any family depend upon it's living
habits, its appreciation of food values
and the money available for food. The
excessive use Of meat means an un-
wise expenditure of money as well as
an unnecessary tax upon the kidneys
and liver, but in any case the prepara-

According TO Hoyle."

The first author OF books dealing
with card games was Edmund Hoyle,
who died I'm London, aged ninety
In ITO. His treatises on whist, piquet
and other games are still authorities,
and According to HOyle" has become
a proverb. Hoyle has been called the
inventor of whist, which Is an error,
although he was the first to popularize
the game and place 1t on scientifSc
and exact footing. Hoyle was a lawyer
by profession, but he derived good In
come from his books. For his treatise
on whist he received $1,000. and the
work was so popular that 1t ran
through five editions the first year, be-
sides many pirated editions. HOyle
gave instructions In whist to parties of
ladies and gentlemen, charging each
$5 per lesson. For some years he held
an official court position In Ireland
which paid him $1,000 per year
Hoyle's book on whist was first pub
lished in 1743.

NEWSPAPER ERRORS.

Publicity They Face.
The capacity of some people for de-
tecting errors in the newspapers is
marvellous. Also it is singular how
many unexpected meanings the people
can find.
If the reporter writes that man
wore coat Of such and such char
acter some one may call up and ask II
the coat was all the man had on? To
satisfy these liteBalists you must
enumerate item by item the other arti-
cles of attire or they will accuse you
Of making the victim appear half
naked.
The reader who digests his paper on
the quiet in his home feels that he has
shown great brilliancy If he detects an
error in grammar or capitalization. 1t
is one thing to find mistakes at your
leisure in another mans work, quite
another to turn out a high degree OF
accuracy and precision in the haste of
newspaper composition.
The banker makes blunders In his
figures, the lawyer draws up incorrect
papers. and the business man submits
erroneous bills. Such blunders are
known only to the few persons whom
they concern. The newspaper Is like
the actor on the stage, whose slightest
slip is manifest to all and seems ridicu-

How to Throw tho spithaII.
