non-productive, but it is safer to count
on 10 or IL years before expecting any
fruit Of any quantity
After commencing to bear they will
continue for 100 years or more, in fact,
Indefinitely, to produce fruit. The sex
of the tree Is easily determined by the
bloom and the excess of males can be
thinned out, leaving only one to each
two acres
The fruit Is very nutritious and
there is no more palatable fruit grown
than this, and will be many, very many
years before this country, even with
the increasing interest in the subject,
will produce enough to supply the do
nestle consumption.

STOCK AND CROP NOTES.

1t is said that Bourgoyne & Sons
of Whitehall, Mont, clipped $4,000
pounds of wool this year. They have
3,70O Cotswold sheep in their band.
The understanding is that an average
of 80 cents a pound was paid for the
clip.
With the tonnage increasing daily
as the marketing season approaches,
for the most part without solicitation
on the part Of officials, indications are
that the Spokane Fruit Growers COM
pany the coming season will market
close to 1900 cars Of apples. This is
approximately three times the tonnage
handled in 1915.

People are realizing more and more
every day that the kidneys, just as do
the bowels, need to be flushed occa-
sionally. The kidneys are an elimina-
tive organ and are constantly work
ing, separating the poisons from the
blood. Under this continual and per-
petual action they are apt to congest,
and then trouble starts. Uric acid
backs up into the system, causing
rheumatism, neuralgia, dropsy and
many other serious disturbances. Doc
tor Pierce of Buffalo, New York, advo-
Gates that every one should drink
plenty of pure water between meals.
Every day should exercise in the out
door air sufficiently to sweat profuse-
ly, and from time to time stimulate the
kidney action by means of "Anuric."
This preparation has been thoroughly
tried out at his Sanitarium, in the

EXPLOSIONS KILL
OVER 70 PEOPLE.
NEW YORK AND NEARBY TOWNS
ROCKED BY EXPLOSION IN
MIDDLE OF NIGHT.
AN ENTIRE ISLAND WAS ATTIRE
sixty.Nine Carloads of Ammunition
Stored on r. r. Tracks on Island
Blown Up-Twenty-five Ware
houses Burn.

New York.-Thirty-th Jersey
City firemen are reported to have
been killed Sunday morning by ter
rifle explosion in the plant of the
National Storage company on Black
Tom island, near Communipaw, N. j.,
where they had gone to fight fire
resulting from a terrific explosion
just 80 minutes earlier.
In the storage company plant are
said to have been enormous quanti-
ties of ammunition consigned to the
entente allies. The entire plant is re-
ported to have been wrecked. The
entire island appeared at $3.50 o'clock
to be covered with sheet of flame.
Access to it is gained from the main
land by a bridge, over which runs
tracks Of the General Railroad of
New Jersey.
Sixty-nine carloads of ammunition
are said to have been stored on the
railroad tracks on the island. All of
them are believed to have been blown
up.
The plant Of the storage company
consists of about Is warehouses and
three or four covered piers, one of
which is a powder pier, and Mr.
Mackenzie, the president of the COM
pany, explained that there were no
combustibles in the warehouses. He
expressed the belief that the meager
information he had received that the
explosion must have been in trains
of munitions which had been run to
the powder docks, awaiting removal
on lighters to ships anchored in the
bay. He declared the plant was val
ued at about $7,OO0,OO0
The first explosion was followed
by a second at 2:39, slightly less yio-
lent, but which again shook all New
York and shattered many more build
ings.
Nearly all the fire apparatus in
Brooklyn was called out in the be-
lief that somewhere in that part Of
the city there was a great fire.
Shock Is Felt 80 Miles Away.
Philadelphia.-The explosion near
Jersey City was felt at Camden, N.
j., opposite this city, and at Bristol,
Pa. Telephone inquiries into Phila-
delphia said the shock was plainly
felt Bristol is 66 miles from Jersey
City and Camden nearly 80 miles.
The Loss $25,ooo,ooo.
New York.-Property loss estimat.
ed at $25,OO0,000 was caused by the
series of terrific explosions of am
munition awaiting shipment to the
entente allies and stored on Black
Tom island, small strip of land
jutting into New York bay off Jersey
City. The loss Of life can not be
determined definitely until there has
been opportunity to check up the
workmen employed on the island and
on boats moored nearby.
Three are known to be dead and at
least five more are missing. Scores
of persons were injured, some OF
them probably mortally.

Date production in the United States

10 years, the bulk of the domestic
crop OF this fruit being cultivated In
California, although certain sections Of

from 100 to 200 pounds, or from two
