EAT AN APPLE A DAY.
AND HELP GROWERS
Dillon says New Workers Could Con-
sumo One Hundred Carloads
Daily.
WORLDS GREATEST MARKET.
Nearly IA Million Barrels Reported
Held In Storage Vet TO Be Sold
Great Shortage Reported During
summer Made Good By less Vast
age.

If every person in Greater New
York and It's suburbs will eat an APP
pie day said John J. Dillon. Conn
missioner OF the State Department OF
Foods and Markets al his Office. 204
Franklin Street, there would be a
daily market for 100 carloads or T.
100000 apples. According to govern
ment reports there are 5000, 900 bar
rels of ap: les In cold storage in the
United States. or nearly 1000. 900 bar
rels In excess OF the holdings at the
same time year ago. II every man,
woman and child should consume one
apple n day, in five months all this
great stock would be used.
Mr.. Dillon says he hopes that the
demand for apples shall increase. be
cause he wants the consumer to get
highly nutritive fruit at reasonable
price. Unless the apples come out OF
the refrieerators. ne said. they are
going 10 spoil by spring ant there
is going to be great wastage. He in
Xites the speculatnrs and independents
with apples 10 send them to the State's
auction market and he will do his
best to accelerate business among re-
tailers.
Commission Dillon said that reports
during the summer indicated A great
shortage Of apples and the fact that
cold storage houses contain nearly -.
coo. 900 barrels, or 4o0.000,0o0 appleA
more than r. year ago. has caused
concern, not to say CONSERVATION in
the minds of the apple spectators"
II is probable that the shortage was
magrfed. he added. bu. It Is also
true that fewer apples were wasted or
sacrificed 10 cider mills. This. added
TO the lack of export by reason OF
the mar, may account. he said. for the
present large holdings
Since September 90 the department
has disposed of nj auction four or five
carloads OF apples a day. three DAYS
n week. but notwithstanding the small
amount of apples handled. Mr.. Dillon
said, the prices for New York and
vicinity were standardized and New
York prices are always the standard
for the whole country"
Mr Dillon made the interesting
statement, that although his depart
ment made 1t possible for the New
York grower who sent apple to the
State auction market to get from rs
cents to $50 more a barrel than
when dealing with individuals. the
price to the retailer who bought at
the auction sales has been about one
third cheaper.
TN August. apple buyers paid from

prices by paying the growers $2.T5 to

retailers to agree to handle apples

OF 20 per cent. which is ample. and
the consumer who bought apples from
them go the benefit. al the prices
were below the regular market price"
The commissioner further said that
by reason of the rainy weather sum.
'mer apples are larger and jucier than
usual. but because of the moisture In
them will not last SO long.

The remedy for this wrong can be

Middletown, June 17.-The class day exercises and alumni gatherings made up today's program in the commencement season at Wesleyan University, but unfavorable weather upset plans for the outdoor events.

After six years exhaustive experi- ment, during which this great Eng fish scientist made 300 different chem icaI mixtures, Sir William Crookes successfully produced tinted glass that may well be called the pioneer and by far the most efficient and prac- tical of it's kind-Sir William Crookes Glass. As the inventor of the world fam ous Crookes tubes, which led to Roentgen discovering the Roentgen, or X-Rays, Sir William Crookes all ready deserved the everlasting grat- 3tude of humanity. Now comes Crookes glass with the distinction that its tint is practically unnoticeable- for the vast majority of colnred glasses are all too conspicuous for regular eyewear. Another of it's chief distinctions is that it not only re- moves the harmful invisible ultra violet and infra-red rays but does n ot dim the visible colors of natural ob- jects. It still lets through practically all the daylight, while removing suc- cessfully at the same time the men acing invisible rays.
 You should know about the protec- tive properties of this glass, whether you are wearing glasses now or not Come in and let us show you.
