Dumping Apples Into Barrels Without
Sorting Gives MiddIeman Greater
Profits, Because He Grades and
Sorts.
would only take little more trouble
in preparing his fruit for market.
Some associations of fruit and veg
etable growers have adopted this plan,
and made certain brands famous.
The fruit sold under these various
brands is carefully selected and
packed under the supervision of the
manager employed by the growers,
and packages are guaranteed to be up
to standard in every way.
AS most of the apples grown in this
country are sent to market in barrels,
it may be well to set down here some
rules adopted by the best associa-
lions of fruit growers for the barrel
ing of the fruit.
In the first place the apples are
taken from the trees and placed in
baskets or bags slung around the
shoulders of the pickers, and some
very careful growers insist that the
pickers wear gloves, in order that
their fingernails may not cut the fruit
1t is a well-known fact now that a
tiny abrasion made by the fingernail
will often admit harmful bacteria
which will, in a short time, destroy
the apple.
The apples are then brought to the
packing tables, which are covered with
canvas or burlap under which is a
padding of moss or straw in order to
prevent bruising. The greatest care Is
taken to prevent the apples from fall
ing from the table, or against one
another in a way to cause the slight
est bruise. The fruit is rapidly sorted
into their proper grade and the pack
age-whatever the form of packins
may be-labeled with the growers
name. A barrel properly packed car
be shipped long distances without in
jury to the fruit.
All good apple growers now under
stand that apples keep better II the!
are allowed to ripen upon the tree:
and 1t is seldom that green fruit II
picked. OF course always there Il
Just the right day when the apples
4 should be taken from the tree, ant
this can be learned only by close oh
seryation and experience.

while the Mandan okipa illustrates
well the great tribal festival type OF
dance
The Crow grass dance. or, as the
native call 1t, the hot dance, Is re-
garded as the joint property OF four
clubs, to some one Of which nearly
every man of the tribe belongs. In
sense these are mutual benefit organi-
cations, for whenever a member is
confronted with a difficulty his COM
rades are expected to help him in
every way. In each of the districts
of the Crow reservation, these four So
cieties share with one another a sub
stantial dancehouse. When the time
for dancing comes, committee OF
men proceeds from lodge to lodge.
planting a stick in front of each. This
means that each household is to con-
tribute to a feast to be held by the
clubs after their dance. A crier rides
through camp heralding the perform
ance and calling on all members TO
present themselves at the dancehouse.
On one occasion | have known four
marshals to be appointed to punish
the laggards; those who had dis
obeyed the summons either had 20

of being thrown into the creek. in

the vigorous turns and bendings char
acteristic of the dance. They giqe
vent to penetrating cries in rapid spc
cession. they brandish weapons at IN
imaginary foe, and thus proceed
around the lodge until the ceasing ;oi
music makes them come to a sudden
stop.
A very different phase of dancing 4:
presented by the Pawnee iruska The
members of the society practicing this
dance were supposed to be masters o.
fire, and their attitude toward it wa:
to be like a Pawnee's attitude in fac
ing the enemy. Spectators were in
vited to their gatherings, their song
were chanted and the members began
to dance. After the third set of song
had been sung, the attendants built ;
big fire and hung a kettle of waite

it was full of boiling soup, plunged hi

ceremony occurs among other tribes

MAKE SUCCESS IN ORCHARDS
Growers Should Note That Thorough
TiIIage Is Most Profitable Method
Of Soil Management.

CBy DIR. E. II. JENKINS. Director. Con-
necticut Experiment Station)
Certain sod orchards under special
conditions, such as heavy. manure
mulching, together with some pastur-
ing to keep the grass down, give good
results-perhaps as good as clean cul-
tivation. But the skillful fruit grow
er can expect more than the law OF
averages will give. And even the gen.
eral grower should note that thorough
tillage is the most profitable method
of soil management.

Sigourney, June 1.-Two Indians or
the Musquaka Indian tribe were IN
Sigourney couple of days the fore
part Of the week looking over the coun-
ty records for some land which they
claimed or thought they owned me
one came from Tama and the other
from Oklahoma. The Indians thought
that down in the south part OF the
county near the Skunk river there was
q piece Of land which they could claim
but after searching the records no land
could be found without an owner and
so the matter had to be given up.
The Oklahoma man claimed to be
preacher by profession and was said to
be the owner of much valuable real
estate in that state Their idea seemed
to be that in the early history of the
country the Indians were the owners of
all the land and that the white man
kept encroaching and compelling the
Indians to move on further west. But
they thought somewhere near the river
by the Manhattan Mill piece was left
to which they could lay claim, but
their visit proved fruitless and they had
to go home disappointed men.
