The eastern apple markets are in a
satisfactory condition, in spots. and but
for the weakness at the auction CenteTs
the situation would be "A highly favora-
BILE one, says the Sunday OregOnian.
Not over rs per cent Of the crop re-
mains unsoId in the northwest, the ear
ly movement having been unusually
rapid, and it is almost certain that this
remnant will be marketed with good
returns. The general average of re-
turns on northwestern apples, however,
is going to be brought down by the low
prices realized at some Of the big cities
in the east.
Advices just at hand show that the
box apple market in the east, and es-
pecially at New York, is in a bad way,
owing to the food of consignments to
auction and commission houses. Sell
ing under such conditions naturally put
the markets in buyers favor, and the
consequence was that values were
brought down, in some instances so to
rs cents box, as compared with the
price basis established in the coast f. o.
b. markets.
In other quarters the aspect Of the
market is better. Big blocks are being
sold in Texas and there is steady bus.
mess in box apples on the Atlantic sea-
board from Maine to Virginia, barring 9
the big markets mentioned. The poll
cy of finding and developing new out
let's is therefore bearing fruit. There
is no difficulty is selling at such points.
On the best varieties, such as Delicious,
Spitzenburgs aDd that class of apples,
prices are now substantially where they
were two years ago. Jonathans moved
out fast at fair prices. The large sell.
ing agencies, in fact, are practically
sold out of everything except winesaps
and that type of apple.
While most of the markets just al
present are crowded with early varie
ties Of poor keeping local apples, the
trade realizes that supplies of winter
apples will be short, and this is re-
sponsble for the sound undertone oi
the market.

APPLE NOTES
i-,-s-s--.........i.........II...I..,..I.

Fifteen yeas ago Paul Evans, of Mis-
souri,, undertook to find cross between
the Ben Davis and Jonathan varieties
of apple which would combine the eat
ing qualities of the Jonathan with the
keeping qualities of the Ren Davis.
says the Portland Journal
The pollen of the Jonathan was
crossed by hand with the blossoms of
the Ben Davis. Then the trees were
housed in glass cages and the blooms
in paper sacks so that insects would
not repolleni2e them. Later the blooms
became apples, the seeds of which were
planted. Trees came forth and they
were carefully cared for.
These trees are now bearing and this
season produced one thousand apples
which differ from one another, though
Of the same parentage. Some are red
in color. Others are only partly so.
Some are sweet. Others are sour.
Some are hard. Others are soft.
The problem that now confrunts Mr..
Evans is to cross these thousand, in
the hope that somewhere among them
is the commercial apple that is desired.
1t will be another II years before they
will be bearing and even then they may
produce a fruit like the original or
totally different. Other Is year peri
ods may he required before the sought
for fruit is obtained. An apple plant
ing may produce any kind of an apple.
That is what makes cultivation.so in
terestlng.
At first thought the accomplishment
seems small in proportion to the time
and labor spent in bringing it about
But behind every useful thing in life
there are years on years of selection
and unremitting care by nature and
man. The men of science who build
up are greater than those who tear
down.

There is TO be an important meeting
of the Central committee in connection
with the fly campaign at the Y. VI. c. A.
Friday night at 7:30. An aggressive
campaign has been started and will be
pushed vigorously until Rock Island
becomes q flyless city, People are
becoming very much interested in the
campaign, and public sentiment is the
one thing necessary to make possible
the success of a civic enterprise of any
kind
Additional subscriptions toward the
expense Of this campaign viii be ap-
preciated by the committee, and it is
hoped that there viii be at least one
hundred citizens who viii feel a suf-
hcient interest in this campaign to
contribute 81 or more toward the ex-
pense. If this campaign were to be
judged from the economical standpoint
alone, and only one life We're saved

be inestimable, particularly if the one
whose life We're saved happened to be

safety of the public would be further
protected by the adoption 81 the
