HooS|ER APPLE
CROP LARGEST
IN MANY YEARS
~ FRANK l.. oDELL.

With many varieties of early apples
already on the market Indiana Is be.
ginning the harvest of the most i'm
portant apple crop ever grown in this
state. For the last two months the
apple show committee of the Indiana
Horticultural society has been en-
phasizing the size of this crop and
the way 1t will tell toward the success
of the apple show to be held in Tom.
lnson hall, Nov 6-13. The issuance
of this week Of the United States crop
report for July sets at rest any doubt
about this crop being the greatest ev'
er known.
During the last 30 days the esti-
mate for Indiana has increased by
more than one million bushels. The
June report estimated Indiana's apple
crop at 6,599,OOO bushels. The July re-
port increased this estimate to 1885,
900 bushels. While the Hoosier yield
has leaped 1,0S9.0O0 bushels in one
month, the entire crop for the United
States has increased only from 1911.
100000 to 193,852,000 bushels, The
state Of New York fell off almost
three and one-half million bushels
Pennsylvania, which heretofore has
ranked next to New York, dropped
100000 bushels, and yielded second
place to Missouri. Ohio. in fourth place
lost slightly. The phenomenal in
creases of Indiana and Illinois were
the feature of the report.
With the immense crop this year
Indiana fruit growers are planning to
make an apple show that will call the
attention of the entire country to the
fine fruit now grown in the state and
to the further possibilities of fruit
growing in Indiana. In the past lndi
ana has spent annually about $4,000.
900 for fruit grown outside of this
state, and from $2,000,0O0 to 100000
year for western fruit lands. This
economic waste occurred because the
western states screamed themselves
hoarse in advertising their advantages
while Indiana modestly remained ST.
lent Now, through the Indiana Ap
pie Show. held annually at Indianapo
lis, the state is learning of the pro-
ductive and marketing advantages OF
Indiana, and the superior qualities OF
the Hoosier fruit.

A VERY BUSY MAN, HE is.

An editor is millionaire without
money congressman out of a ajob, a
king without a throne. He constructs
without hammer or saw, builds &
railroad without spikes or rails, anu
farms without pillow. He runs a
butcher shop in the journalistic world,
and deals in brains cheap for cash or
credit. He loves all who advertise
with him as he does a brother. The
editor is teacher, lawyer and
preacher. He heals the wounded,
cares for the dying and rescues the
perishing, and staryes himself when a
ham sandwich would snatch him from
the jaws of death.-Excharge

BREAKING WITH JOHN BARLEY
CORN.

While the decrease of $25,000,000 a
year in the government revenues from
liquor and tobacco may perhaps be
attributed in an appreciable measure
to recent financial depression there is
no doubt that increasing temperance
in all sections of the country is partly
responsible for this showing.
In the past few years there has beer
something of revolution in the mat
ter of excessive drinking. Science has
shown the harmful effects of alcohol
in such ways as to be strikingly con-
vincing, and business as a rule, has
put the taboo on the drinking man
Efficiency and liquor can't 20 to

FOR YOUR GOOD.

A volunteer committee of ten citi-
zens are carrying on campaign for
new members for the Chamber OF
Commerce.
Today the plan of buffet luncheon
was made the medium of assembling as
many business men as possible for a
short talk, and the main purpose OF
acquainting these people as to the
purposes of the organization.
The Chamber of Commerce is val
liable to a city and county.
Did it do nothing more than contin-
ually keep the name of Americas and
Sumter county before the public, it
would have accomplished a result
worth many dollars to this commun
ity.
But it's scope of work is broad, and
it's success is assured, if only the cit
liens will respond to call which has
their own best interest at heart.
One single instance is that the body
will install a freight bureau with ar
experienced rate manager as soon as
the membership and their dues will
permit the expenditure of the amount
which this feature will cost
The necessity for such bureau IS
readily apparent when it becomes
knkown that car of coal from Birm,
ingham, Ala, to Cordele, Ca, passing
directly through Americas, is $1,000
cheaper than if the car was shipped to
Americas.
But without rate man no complaint
with any degree of accuracy can be
lodged. There are thousands of dol
lars being spent by the merchants of
Americas each year in rates which
could be equalized and their fairness
The Chamber of Commerce has
brought two farm demonstrators to
Sumter county. 1t has caused two
railroads to send their industrial
agents to Americas. as headquarters
1t waged campaign for tobacco-rais-
ing which would offset the harm of
the boll-weevil.
For every dollar invested in the
Chamber of Commerce, the merchant
and every citizen receives value in re-
turn.
No ultimatum has been issued for
members, but it is readily apparent
that no organization can exist without
the cooperation of the public.
Stop and consider as you would do
concerning any other plain business
proposition.
