VAN HORN OPTIM-
STIC OVER DEAL

"It now looks as though every fruit
district would be happy valley next
spring" is the way Burt Van Horn,
prominent New York apple operator
and owner of heavy orchard holdings
here and in western New York, sizes
up the 1917 apple deal.
Mr.. Van Horn, who arrived here
from Wenatchee, where he and his
brother, Willis Van Horn, annually
buy large blocks Of the chief CONNER
cial varieties, says that it was esti-
mated at the recent New York city
convention of the International Apple
Shippers Association, that the 1917
crop would be 81 per cent that of
last year.
81 have been through the New York
fruit belt and other eastern fruit sec.
tions as well as those of Washington
very recently" says Mr.. Van Horn,
land while it seems to me that the es-
innate may be little heavy, | believe
tits true that the fruit in every part of
the country is so clean and in such
condition this season that as many
packed barrels and boxes will be of
fered for sale this year as last. The
big New York district is one place
that is going to be considerably short
this year, because of weather condi-
tions working against the development
of blossoms and the maturity of fruit.
"Still everything is looking mighty
good. With good values in sight grow.
ers are ready to pay good money for
labor in the orchard and they are GO
ing to prepare their product well. 1t
seems to me that the season is going
to be characterized by the steady, even
consumption of fruit. Growers are
going to hasten their product to re-
ceiving stations and it s.going at once
to the consumer instead of altogether
to storage, as has been the cause of so
much disaster in past years.

COWS MUST BE TU-
BERCULIN TESTED

Editor Glacier: Judging from cor
respondence coming to this Office 1t
would seem that considerable misap-
prehension exists among dairy farmers
relative to the requirements of the law
passed by the legislative assembly Of
1917, which requires the pasteurlzation
of all milk and cream sold to consum-
ers and all by-products of creameries
or cheese factories if not produced
from tuberculin tested cows.
Section of chapter SS2 Of the gen.
eral laws of 1917 reads as follows:
THAT from and after September /,
1917, it shall be unlawful for any per-
son, firm, company, corporation or asso-
citation to sell or offer or expose for
sale or exchange, for human consump'
tion, any milk from cows that have
not passed the tuberculin test, unless
such milk shall have been pasteurized
as hereinafter provided. 1t is under
stood and expressly stated that moth
ing in this section shall apply to the
delivery of milk or cream to creamer-
les, cheese or condensed milk factories
by the producer of such milk or cream,
or in bulkEto the wholesale trade.
1t will be noted from the rea ling of
the above that this part of the law
does not apply in any way whatever to
any dairy farmer who is selling his
milk or cream to a condensery, cream
cry, cheese factory, milk depot or any
manufacturing plant, but said condens-
cry, creamery, cheese factory, milk
depot or manufacturing plant is held
responsible for the process OF pasteur-
ization.
On the other hand, if dairy farmers
are making what is known as dairy
butter, or any other milk product and
selling the same directly to consumers,
then they come under the purview of
this act.
Section 8 of this act makes provi-
sions as follows: milk from any COW
or cows whose owners or lesse shall
apply to the State Livestock Sanitary
Board to have such COW or cows tuber-
culin tested, shall be exempt from all
of the provisions of this act until such
time as such cows shall have been
tested"
This application should be made to

MANY ORCHARDISTS
HARVESTING BEANS

Among the orchardists who have
been engaged in the harvest of their
beans has been Lieut.. Hurlburt, Offic-
ers' Reserve Corps, Engineers, home
from Vancouver barracks on leave TAX
ensespecially to care for his crop.
III will have two tons of beans this
season." says Lieut.. Hurlburt. 81 have
been raising few beans each year for
several years, and my crop of 400
pounds last season was sold for 20
cents per pound.
Scores of other orchardists are har-
vesting bean crops, and the yield of
the food staple will run into the scores
of tons. Numerous orchardists have
also harvested small acreages of
grains, wheat, oats and barley, this
season, and the success of their ven
lures, it is said, will lead to heavy
planting the coming season, Apple
growers in several instances are al
ready preparing the soil for crops of
winter grain.
For the first time since orcharding
became the predominant industry OF
the valley, hay was shipped in carload
lots to outside points last spring. The
hay acreage was increased more thar
so per cent the past season, and with a
good yield and fine weather for curing
the product the surplus for exporting
will be doubled this winter.

Expect to Complete
Laying of Big Main in
Walnut Street Soon

Officials of the Harrisburg Light
and Power Company expect that
work on the new 1S-inch steam main
in Walnut street will be completed
by the end of this week. If con-
ditions prevent the whole job from
Third and Second street from being
finished, the section from Third to
Court street will be finished. The
new main is one of the largest laid
in the city and was made necessary
owing to the increase in business
and in order to provide better pres
sure. During the course of the op-
erations rain delayed the work for
days at a time and large boards had
to be placed in position to prevent
dirt from falling on the workmen
in the trench.
AS soon as the work has been fin
ished the company will replace an
old siX-inch main in Second street
from Walnut to Strawberry with a
new ten-inch main and from Walnut
to Locust streets with a 15-inch
main. 1t is expected that the work
will be completed sooner as there is
less traffic congestion in Second
street than in Walnut.
