Horticultural Experts PronOunces Apples and Pears
From Upper Wenatchee Valley Unsurpassed

is certainly a busy time of year for
everybody that can be of help.
Many persons who now own an or
chard of their own and reap a large
income from this business, have start
ed in as picker or packer, planted
young orchard, and worked out
helping neighbors until their own place
started to produce.
Peshastin is at the head of the water
supply and its irrigation bitches cover
most all tillable land. Irrigation is
half the battle in the fruit industry,
as the water adds size, color and
quality to the fruit. Water for this
district is taken from Snow Lakes,
Peshastin creek, Icicle river and the
Wenatchee river and is carried in
fumes and open bitches above the
ranches, measured out to each ranch
er's headgate as acreage calls and
runs by gravity out over his land
thru irrigation pipes and fumes.
The killing spring frosts are avoid
ed largely by our climatic conditions,
the snow in the mountains keeping
the buds back in the spring until dan
ger of frost is over, so there has never
been a failure of a fruit crop in the
Peshastin district. Each year the
trees are loaded with their big red
apples.
The warehouses and packing sheds
of the Peshastin district are of the
very latest type, and they are stu
ated on the Great Northern railroad,
where fruit cars are spotted every
day and loaded with apples and other
fruits, their destination being mostly

They Want Our Apples

"All the principal wholesale dealers
of fruit that talked with" said S.
H. Andrews, of the Wenatchee Valley
Fruit Exchange, "want more north
western boxed apples than they had
last year" Mr.. Andrews recently re-
turned from a tour of the principle
distributing centers of the country as
far east as New York.
Everywhere / went ! heard the
same story. Boxed apples are increas-
ing in favor among the consumers.
and all other food stuffs radically adj
vanced in price, dealers and consum-
ers alike expect to pay more for fancy
and extra fancy boxed apples this fall
than they did last. OF course there
is limit to the price they will pay
but it is certain that the Wenatchee
Valleys famous product will be in
good demand"

SULLIVAN & GRINER
Will Ship More Than 100 Carloads of
Fruit This Year

Among the new arrivals in the Pc
shastin field the past season were Sui
Ivan & Griner, who bought the Win
gate & Bigelow warehouse. They are
cash buyers of all kinds of fruit, such
as apples, pears, peaches, apricotsi
etc. They also handle all kinds of
orchard supplies, such as sprays,
packing paper, boxes and box nails.
This is a live concern and is always
ready to supply the public with what
is most needed in the fruit business.
They will handle this year more than
100 carloads out of the Peshastin dis
trict. Mr.. Al Darlington, well known
horticulturist, is acting as manager
for the concern.

crop he has sold $4,000 worth of ap-
pies from the tract. His crop this
year will be considerably over 10000
boxes.
Like dozens of other growers in the
Upper Valley, apple growing was
new thing to Mr.. Lanphere when he
first settled near Wenatchee. But by
shedding his coat and getting out
into the orchard he has mastered all
the intricacies of the industry. As
he says, 81 was raised on a farm in
the east and while this was a differ
ent kind of farming from what l had
been used to, nevertheless my earlier
experience was great help to me-"
During this, the busy season, Mr..
Lanphere can be found out among the
pickers just as hard at work as any of
his employees.
Mr.. Lanphere has not been feeling
very well of late and as a result has
been rushing things on the Golden
West Orchards. He is anxious to get
his crop to the warehouse and finish
up the seasons work. In short time
the golden stream will flow into his
Golfers and then he and Mrs. Lam
phere will pack up their grips and
leave for Sunny California for the
winter.
In the accompanying picture Mr..
and Mrs. Lanphere are seen standing
by the gate in front of their home.
Their residence is modern and one of
the fine places in the upper valley.

by the firm for $40 from Robert F.
Johnson and came from the ranch
owned by him which he bought some
three weeks ago for $4,000. The
ranch is situated about three miles
from Wenatchee on the Wenatchee
river. The box will be sent to Chi
cago to be put on exhibition to adver-
tise the Wenatchee Valley-Wenat-

Worth Weight In Gold

F. B. Utter, of the Underwood Fruit
Farm, recently realized $9.45 from
one apple box full of tomatoes, this
being three times the price he has
ever received for extra fancy apples.
Owing to the blight which prevailed
tomatoes were worth almost their
weight in gold and those who had
them made money this fall.-Wenat-

One of the beautiful places in the
Peshastin district is the Golden West
Orchards, owned by H.W. Lanphere e.
Son. Forty acres of bearing orchard
and almost as level as a floor. The
name is very appropriate as the an
nual returns from this tract are "gol-

twelve years old, yielding on the av-
erage of 500 boxes to the acre. This
