ed. a better checkion cars enron e
and more intelligent division f
shipments may be secured. No
market need be overstocked and
none undersupplied. Cars can be
loaded with the kind and grade of
fruit>suitable for the market to
which the car is to be sent.
The time in which our apples are
ahf of the V rgin a crop could be
better utilized. Better terms can
be made with jobbers.
A similar movement should be
organized to develop an organiza-
ton to distribute the apples of
Northwestern North Carolina with
Greensboro as a distributing poin !.
When the apple growers of North
Carolina, Virginia, New York and
Missouri are. organized like those of
the Pacific northwest they can
hope to distribute their fruit with
the same efficiency as at present is
achieved in the case of citrus fruit.

questions pertaining to beef cattle.
The replies are to be obtained by
the school children working in CO.
operation with the beef cattle far
mers in their school district. The
work has already been instituted in
about forty counties in the State
through the County School Superin-
tends. In a few instances where
the schools have closed the work
has been taken up direct with the
rural school children.
Any rural school child wishing
to compete in this survey which is
statewide should write for ccm-

that it's veracity may be questioned.
Last week it contained a we'll writ

a hundred years old and that he

Valley News.
1t is rather hard to convince one
having an incredulous mind as has
the editor of the Sylvan Valley
NeWs-one who does not know and
will not be convinced of the truth
OF a statement of which he has no
fist hand acknowledgements to whom
all things are mysteries to be con-
jured with and viewed with the eye
of scepticism, save those homely
occurrences of every day life in a
large city like Brevard-on-the French
Broad; but in spite of the fact that
Brother Jones is serving a seeming
ly life sentence, in that delectable {?
Sylvan Valley, or because of it,
there are things that might possibly
occur of which he would never,
never, even dream.
Not being personally acquainted
with the "Old Boy" we cannot vouch
for his veracity; but we deem all
things possible and have no reason
to believe otherwise than that he
spoke the truth.
AS regards the pleasant little
stroll from Sylvia to Andrews. There
nothing particularly amazing
about such an usual performance,
and we had thought little of it.
However, if Brother Jones moved
from the Jefferson City on the sun
ny-side of Missouri and hasn't re-
covered from the show-me bugs
with which he was innoculated. we
can produce the necessary proof to
satisfy jury of freeholders, of any
c)nnty except Pennsylvania.

MARKETING.

Mr.. VIM. R. Camp, of the Division
of markets, believes that the apple
growers of the Western part of the
State should organize.
An organized effort to 90 after
markets and to Systematically dis
tribute the crop will bring better
prices and at the same time be the
best advertisement 10 encourage
the growth of the apple industry of
Western North Carolina. The grow
ers, demonstration agents, the
boards of trade, the banks and the
railroads should be united on this
movement.
The grant by the Southern Rail-
way of the storage in transit privi-
lege to Asheville will make that
Point natural distributing point for
western North Carolina. This means
that grower in Waynesville or in
any other town to the west or north
of Asheville can ship apples into
that town for storage or inspection.
Then the fruit can be shipped out
at balance of the through rate to
the point of destination. A through
rate from point of origin of a pro-
duct to it's final destination is much
cheaper than a combination of To-
Gals. All territory to the north and
west of Asheville can now organize
to distribute their fruit through a
common joint sales agency.
Only the growers of commercial
apples, that is, apples which have
Teen properly sprayed, should be
allowed to come into an organiza.l
ton during the first year. Gradual
ly those who do not now properly
spray, grade and market their an
pies will find that the organization
is getting better prices and will be
more easily induced to follow the
standard laid down by the organiza-
ton. AS fast as the growers can
put up 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
organization our fruit will be dis
posed of more and more in barrels
and bring to the community the
larger returns of a standard pack
and improved methods of distribu-
ton.
If only those growers are included
IN an organization who can be re-
lied upon to adhere to the rules for
a uniform grade which the mem
bership adopts, the expenses of
grading, packing, and inspection
will be reduced. Possibly the cost
OF maintaining central packing
plant may be saved. For growers
who have to have their grading
done it may be a saving to have
their fr"it graded on large scale
at a central plant. The origina,
cost OF such a plant and the ex-
penses of maintenance may be as
sessed upon the members of the
organization in proportion to the
number of trees owned or amount
OF, fruit handled. But for growers
who do much of their own grading,
or can cheaply secure the help to
90 1t, the expense of packing at a
common packing shed would be in
creased. In any event an oreani-
zation can better enforce a common
standard and develop a reputation
Tor given brand of apples for a
whole community than the indi
vidual grower.
Through joint sales agency the
expenses of travelling agents and

The news article in regard to the
opening of the Ruby City IS
will prove of much interest to the
people of this county. The exploit
alton of the vast and we'll nigh in
exaustable mineral wealth of Jack

tant part in the industrial realm in
Western North Carolina in the next
few years, and those who have in
vestigated the extent and value of
the different minerals that are

county have always held the opin-
ion that this county in the wealth

AS we understand it, all neces-

will begin in earnest as soon as the
machinery, which is arriving every

that he will have the mine anc
plant in operation by the end of
the year. Of course employment
for a number of men will be fur

ton with highway building at The
present time is unquestionably tia. Of
Finance and Indebtedness. This APP
plies both to the country roads ana
city streets and involves the questions
as to whether direct taxation or bond
issues are preferable; the proper term
for bonds; the amount of bonds which
may be judicically issued for road and
street construction under given con-
ditions; the legislation which may be
necessary in reducing these essential
basis which shall be scientific and &C.
onomic; the question of sinking Funds,
and bond retirements; all appeal di-
rectly to the best financial sense Of all
citizens, when road or street improve
ment is contemplated.
The fact that probably one-halT of
the counties and cities in the United
States and other American countries
are now at some stage of the agita-
ton for highway betterment makes
the financial problem one Of para
mount Importance. The subject will
be presented and discussed in all its
phases at the Pan-American Road
Congress, which will assemble at Mu-
nicipal Auditorium, Oakland, Ca,ifor-
MIA, Monday, September IL, and con-
tinue for five days.

ment has been made during the past
ten years in methods of road anG
