POOR FRUIT HURTS MARKETS.

Effective cooperative organizations
| afford the best means for profitable
marketing of the country's increas-
| ing apple crop, according to a survey
of marketing conditions in the in
dustry just published as bulletin No.
3O2, Apple Market Investigations,
1914-15,'' by the United States de-
partment of agriculture. In states
where apples are boxed instead of
barreled, growers associations ham
die a large percentage of the output
and in securing uniformity III the
pack and advantageous distribution
of the crop are much more successful
than individual producers in other
sections. Where individuals act in
dependent1y there is little uniformity
in grading and much poor fruit is
shipped which, in seasons of large
production such as 1914, cannot be
disposed of profitably Observations
in the Chicago market showed that
IS per cent of the arrivals in carlot
bulk, or the equivalent of $50 car
loads, and 10 per cent of the bar
relied shipments, the equivalent of
about 100 carloads, were OF such poor
quality that the price would not have
paid the freight charges had these
apples been shipped by themselves.
By throwing out this poor fruit the
farmers would not Only have saved
the cost of packing and shipping, but
would have cleared the market for
their good stock. Similar conditions
were found elseWhere.@-s-In this con-
nection it is said that tie grade and
package laws now in operation in
number of states are proving effec-
tive in stabilizing the market. Uni
formity in state legislation of this
kind, the authors state, is, however,
most desira Bile. The effect of the
war upon the industry has been found
to be less disastrous than was appre-
hended. Because of the cheapness of
the fruit consumption YVES stimulated
until the exports far exceeded expec-
tations. The German ports being
closed, large quantities were shipped
direct to the Scandinavian markets
for the first time and this should
prove of considerable benefit in fu-
ture years. Direct trade with South
America has also increased greatly
and should contInuse to do SO, espe-
ciaIly if the growing trade in meat
products affords additional return ia
cilities for shipment. Careful selec-
ton, grading and packing by hand is,
however, essential to the delivery of
the fruit IL good condition and only
stock that may be classed as fancy"
or extra fancy should be exported
to South American ports

the stomach, stimulates the heart and
circulation, influences the nutrition of
the jaws and their appendages by
stimulating blood and lymph circula-
ton, and, finally, tends to diminish the
amount of food consumed because it is
more economically disposed of in the
SYSTEM one may well pause to make
a few related Inquiries. Where is the
borderline between truth and poetry
in these matters, asks The Journal OF
the American Medical Association. the
two extremes of practice are doubtless
represented by undermast.cation, as
involved in the hasty boiling of food,
and demonstration, to which the
epithet "Fletcherizing'' is sometimes
applied. The real test is the amount
of food actually absorbed and utilized.
Experiments recently carried on by
Foster and Hawk show that the diff
ference in food utilization in boiling
and ''Fletcherizing'' is only 1.6 per
cent. Such insignificant differences
surely cannot be used in support or
any enthusiastic claims for the alleged
marvellous efficiency of the excessive
mastication of food, even when judged
by the other extreme of food boiling.
In another recently published series OF
experiments on man in which vege-
table products, notably potatoes and
bread, formed the prominent articles
of diet, utilization was apparently i'm
proved by good mastication. Neither
these nor the earlier quoted results
are to be taken as an appeal for COM
plete indifference in the matter of eat
ing, but rather as an indication of the
wisdom of that happy medium in mas
tication which is sign of wisdom in
other functions.

stantinopIe and the Ural mountains,
and so round the entire circuit of the
Old World, only about one person in
eight, only about one acre in six, lie
outside the struggle. OF the fifty-sx
million Europeans who are at present
neutral, perhaps only the twenty who
dwell in the Spanish Peninsula are
certain to continue so; one-half of the
remainder are possible, the other half
likely, combatants. As matters stand
today Turkey and Germanic powers
together dispose of some 100000
square miles of European soil and
119,OOO,000 inhabitants, and the Allies

TO CONFER OVER GAS
Public Service Commissions of Kansas
and Missouri to Meet.

Jefferson City, Sept. 15.-Chairman
Atkinson and Judge Kennish of the
Missouri public service commission
will hold a conference in Kansas City,
September 27, with Chairman Joseph
L. Bristow and other members of the
Kansas utility commission with refer
ence to a proposed increase in natural
gas rates to cities in this state and
Kansas.
This announcement was made here
today.
Several times within the last few
weeks a conference between the Mis-
souri, and Kansas commissioners con-
corning gas questions has been dis
cussed. At the conference this month
the commissioners from the two states
will discuss the adoption by Missouri
of the Kansas commissions recent
order increasing the gas rate to 81
cents. No action looking toward the
adoption of the Kansas order was
taken by the Kansas Natural Gas
company. Instead the company went
before Judge Flannelly and secured an
order for a 30-cent rate in Kansas.
That order is now before the supreme
court on appeal and will be heard

MORE VETS HERE
Trains Bring Hundreds
to Topeka Encampment.
Annual Meeting Will Continue
Throughout Week.

More than 5000 old soldiers are in
Topeka today for the annual encamp-
ment of the Kansas G. A. r. Nearly
every train brought additional veter-
ans to Topeka and it is planned to
continue the meetings throughout the
week.
Original plans called for the closing
of the encampment tonight. But the
blue line in Kansas is growing thin
ner each year ard at every encamp-
ment some of the faces of former
gatherings are missing. So the boys OF
81 plan to make the most of their
opportunity and will probably remain
in session throughout the entire week.
Camp fires will be held every night
at Memorial hall, Tenth avenue and
Jackson street The meetings Will be
under the direction Of c. A. Meek, de-
partment commander of the G.. a. r.
in Kansas. Commander Meek believes
that more than 1000 old soldiers will
attend the encampmept this week.
Had weather conditions been more ia
vorable, the state commander is con-
fident the attendance would have
reached the 5000 mark. Almost every
county and every army post in the
state is represented at the Topeka en-
campment.

SUES STATE BOARD.
Farmer Wants Pay for Fossil Re-
moved to *. u.

Peter L. Clarity today appealed to
the state supreme coure in his fight
to secure judgment for a fossil taken
from his farm some months ago by
Kansas university professors and stu
dents. Clarity was beaten when he
brought suit in the Douglas county
district court.
The plaintiff in the action owns a
farm in western Kansas. 1t is alleged
that professors and students at the
state university took a valuable fossil
from the Clarity farm and removed it
to the state university. Clarity sought
to collect from the state board of adj
ministration, but his claim was not
allowed. Then he brought suit in the
Douglas county district court, where
the trial judge sustained d demurrer
to his petition. Now Clarity is seek
ing relief in the supreme court.

MAsTICATIoN AND FOOD.

Again and again in everyday life we
find that some dictum which either
commends itself to common sense or
lends itself freely to argumentative
proof is being made the basis of a
widespread propaganda. What was
more reasonable than to assume that
water ingested with meals would dilute
the castle juice and thus diminish it's
efficiency? And what was more logical
than to urge the abolition of such an
assumedly harmful custom of water
drinking? Yet investigation has show
ed that some of the postulates in this
contention are wrong, and that unsus-
pected factors further vitiate the con-
illusions. Indeed, under certain con-
ditions water may even promote the
castle secretion, and thus upset these
revered traditions.
The proper mastication of food has
certain obvious Qualifications. 1t pro-
notes a more extensive insalivation,
which is not without advantage to GER
tain types of foodstuffs, and it permits
a speedier admixture of the digestive
secretions with the food. Enthusiasts
have not been content with the insis-
tence on these indisputabIe advan-
tages, but have attempted to infuse
far-reaching effects into the habit of
very complete mastication. We may
be ready to admit that insufficient
mastication is the cause of direct or
indirect evils which may be greatly
exaggerated in certain pathological
conditions When, however, we are
urged to chew our food with unremit-
ting vigor because it secures proper
insalivation of food. increases the

Speaking of colossal nerve. how
about the proposal of the financiers of
the Allies to borrow a billion dollars in
these United States without anything
like collateral except their govern
ments' bonds? OF course, these repre-
sent the word of their governments
that they will make the debt good.
And while the word of England and
France IN financial matters has always
been as good as gold, these are I'M
usual times and the eventualitics of
the great war might make it iTnpossi-'
BILE for them to keep their word in,
such an important particular. This
is a wonderfully rich country, it is
true, but billion dollars haven't begun
as yet to grow in punches on the.

To the nine powers who were in the

the proportion is much higher. Some

CROWDS oRDERLY, OF COURSE

Another prophecy that hasn't come
true, which seems to be the rule with
all varieties of prophecies. was the
one projected by few folk that the
free ga at the fair would result in
unmanag eable and disorderly crowds
at the fair grounds. As a matter OF
fact, though, Topeka and the whole
OF Kansas, for that matter, are stran-
gers to disordcrly crowds. And one of
the largest contributory factors to this
desirable condition of affairs is the
Kansas prohibitory law and its rigid
enforcement.
