1t looks as tho men must have drink

this thing of urging the women to

just right to me either. | think ii
would be just as prudent for Uncle
Sam to urge men to practice little

SMALL STUFF GLUTS
The APPLE MARKET

H. F. Davidson writing here, de.
clares that he can see no Improvement
for the apple market, now badly de.
moralized by the sugar shortage and
the receipt in eastern distributing
points of great quantity of small size
fruit, until after the Christmas and
New Year holidays are over.
"The demand IS little better than
it was a week or so ago." writes Mr..
Davidson, ''but prices have not ad.
vanced much and are around 90 cents
per box lower than they were two or
three weeks ago. A surplus Of small
sizes is on the market and while things
are not as we would like them, there
is good demand at good prices for
strictly first class fruit of the large
sizes, the weakness applying principal
ly to 1885 and smaller. The smaller
the size the less the demand is.
II cannot see any prospect for ma
terial improvement until after the hol-
days, as immense quantities of apples
are knowing eastward. Many cars sold
are being rejected and some, for other
reasons, are coming to the Atlantic
seaboard which originally were not in
tended for these markets. The infor-
nation we have here is to the effect
that the Chicago and other middle
western markets are in the same con-
dition."
Mr.. Davidson states that he recently
saw Kenneth Mckay, of the North.

was looking fine. He says that he had

GULL APPLES ARE
BEING IMPORTED

For the first time in the history Of
the valley local vinegar and cider man.
featuring plants find it necessary to
import Gull apples from other North
western districts in order to keep their
presses running and to fill their tanks
throughout the winter season. Bulked
like coal in box and gondola cars,
hundreds of tons of Gull apples have
been shipped here from the Yakima
and Wenatchee districts by the Hood
River Apple Vinegar Co. In gigantic
bins the red and yellow fruit is he Id
awaiting turn at the presses.
While the factory has increased its
capacity materially over last year and
while a second vinegar plant has been
in operation at 0dell, the shortage of
Gull apples here is mainly attributed to
the unusually heavy purchases of the
grade of fruit by out of town by-prod.
ucts plants. The tonnage of low grade
apples bought the past season by the
LIBBY cannery of The Dalles and the
Wittenburg-King Co. for processing
has reached into the millions Of
pounds. The fruit bought by these
concerns has all been as carefully sized
and graded, before shipment, as the
commercial brands of the first grades.

as follows:

almost daily the legionaries and
aviators at the front send me clippings
from American newspapers which tell
of various exploits of men back from

other, even by downright desertion, to
return to America before ever going on

to give personal details about Sgt

himself to City Marshal Carson. HI
