IN APPLE GROWING

Question: Do you believe the ap- pie business is oyerdone2 Don't you believe that there are brighter pros poets in the future than ever before? |-E. w. J., Virginia.
 Answer: The apple business, like many other forms of industry, has been subject to good deal of fluc- tuation from time to time. and has gone through several boom periods According to the census Of 1890 the United States had over 125,0o0,0 apple trees. In 1900, the number had i increased to 201 ,000 000 apple trees but by the time the 1910 census was taken, over 50,009,000 of these ap- pie trees had been cut down In your own state, l, 1,1S5 ,000 apple trees were lost in this interval, while Mis- souri lost over five and ene-half mil lion trees.
 The production of apples shows as great tlucfuation, and ranges from @ GOO 00o barrels in 1896 to "A GOO, ,00C barrels i'll 1910, but while the de crease in trees and decrease in pro- duction has been going on, the popula- ton of this country has been inereas- ing. and export trade being greatly extended, with the result that apples have been continually on the Up grade in price.
 However, it is notable to observe that the apples which sell and which bring the big morey, have been on ! ly apples of quality and the orchards which are turning off profit are those which are being given the care and attention end rsed by recognized authorities in the service of the Uni- ted States Department Of Agrieult- ure, and the various state expert ment stations.
 From the fact that the production ] of apples is decreasing and the price going up. there is DO doubt at all but that the apple business is not over done, and that there is a very bright future for the apple business, pro-
