BIG APPLE SUPPLY
IN COLD STORAGE
U. S. Department Of Agriculture
Report Predicts Increase in
the Demand.
By oARDNE MACK.

Although dealers generally report
that tho holiday demand for apples did
not prove to be as expected. the result
Of Investigations conducted by the Of
fee Of markets Of the United States Do
partment Of Agriculture would indicate
pies during the month Of December was
satisfactory under the conditions.
Three hundred and six firms reported
for January l. Of which number 231 re-
ported for December !. II the average
condition for this number of storages
situated in all parts Of the country Is q
criterion. approximately 13 per cent Of
tho total cold storage holdings Decen1-
ber I wero marketed prior to January /.
The decrease In barrel holdings was
analysing tho movement. 1t Is seen that
during the month Of December 10 per
cent Of barreled apples were moved. as
against a. per cont of boxes.
December Movement Small.
The percentage Of movement In De-
cember for box apples was small, but
It is to be remembered that sarge guam
titles OF this pack are held In common
storage in the box-apple producing
areas. and that box apples placed in
cold storage under conditions existing
winter markets.
Remembering that cold storage ap-
pies met with heavy competition In tho
distribution Of CommOn-storage stock,
It Is apparent that the movement Of
barreled apples in December. as indi-
Gated by the above recapitulation. was
liberal It being understood that COM
terested in the cold-storage deal should
mon storage apples are chiefly mar
keted prior TO January 1. and that the
entire common-storage holdings as q
rule are out Of the way by February J..
those interested in the cold-storage deal
should not be discouraged in SO far as
the future Is concerned.
Demand Will Increase.
This does not mean that high prices
can be expected. but rather that the
fruit ought to move gradually to meet
the heavy demand which has been cre-
ated during the past few months as a
result Of bountiful supply and low
prices. With common-storage apples
out Of the way. the demand for cold
storage stock will increase proportion
ately.
The cold-storage holdings of apples
are admittedly large. and regular.
vigorous movement throughout the re-
mainder Of tho season may be necessary
10 prevent disaste in the spring. Grow
ers and dealers are urged neither to
dump their holdings nor to stand for
arbitrarily high prices.
Panicky selling usually means grief,
but all concerned should seek to move
cold-storage apples gradually and with
such rapidity as the market allows. so
that the deal may be wound up in rela-
lively good shape.

Unusual Interest Shown
In Photoplays of Indians

Unusual interest has been awakened
In the production Of the Edward S. Cur
tbs photoplays Of Indian life at the Be-
lasco Theater this afternoon and tomor-
row afternoon under auspices or the
Comite France e-Amerique for the oenent
Of the war zone sufferers.
The photoplays are of character
seldom presented. because the actors
are Indians. and the stories they tell In
their action are stories OF Indian legend.

fear az the bad men, who have always had the
ballot and who are tenfold more adept IN their
Vaccinations. Yet the bad men have not
gained the upper hand over the men VINO De-
eve in clean, upright citizenship.
S. I cannot agree with those VINO tnihA
that a woman is not good citizen simply De-
cause she doesn't perform military service or
agree to do so when the right OF suffrage Is
thrust upon her. The extension OF suffrage
doesn't affect the status Of a woman as SOL
der in the least. There is no more reason
why she should become subject TO military
duty after she votes than before she casts the
ballot. In Kansas she is exempted from mill
tary service Enemies OF suffrage lose sight
OF the fact that there are thousands upon thou
sands of men in this country who by reason
of some physical disability are unfit for mill
tary service. But these men have never been
deprived of the right to vote on that account;
nor should they be. Why, then, should the
women not be accorded the same right'
s. Equal suffrage has not deprived the
father of family Of his responsibility in the
support of his family. Kansas men do not
want 10 be deprived OF that privilege. They
have Toe much chvalry for that
7. The cniranchisenent OF Kansas women
has not taken from them any exemptions
they had before except jury service. The
last Legislature passed law giving women
the right TO withdraw from Jury service il
they desired However, women very frequent
w serve OIL our iuries and the district judges
sav they raise the standard Of jury service.
8. The extension OF suffrage has quick
cned the interest Of women IN public
questions.
