A GLIMPSE OF ORCH
ARDS OF FRANCE

The following, written from Cet0n
by David ". Hagen. special cores
pondent Of the Portland Telegram in
France, appeared in an issue of the
Telegram last week.
Apple growing is the chief industry
of this part Of France Horse raising
is second, but the war took SO many
of the animals that it will be years be-
fore this industry can resume its for
mer grandeur. But the orchards are
standing as in days IF yoTe, and Just
now the demand for fruit is great.
The orchard sts Of Hood River and
Mosier and ue Rogue River valley
would think many thoughts were they
to visit the fruit section Of the DeDart
ment Of the 0rne In the first place,
the trees look as though they had been
allowed TO grow at their own sweet
will: some of them sre Of one size and
shape, others of different forms.
There is none of the careful pruning
the fruit men of the Pacific northwest
pride themselves on.
In fact, the only pruning that seems
to be done is when the limbs are
knocked off the trees during picking
time. And herein lies another major
difference in 0rne and Oregon apple
dom. Here the fruit is gathered by
people hitting the limbs and with clubs
and shaking the trees, then picking the
crop off the ground. Ii is almost a
capital otfense to club an apple tree IN
the Beaver state. All the limbs that
fall in these parts are carefully gath
cred and used for firewOod.
Much cider is made in Ceton and sur
rounding villages and farm houses.
And there is also another drink manu-
featured in this department that is well
known in France "berluche :" at is
a sort of whiskey made from apple
cider, and is said to contain powerful
kick.
Apple trees have been growing in
these little valleys as far back as the
Oldest inhabitant can recollect. For a
long time the market was only local
one; then someone found out that this
fruit was eaten in Paris, so the bulk
of the crop WAS ever afterwards sent
there. 1t was about 20 years ago that
a number of Germans, strolling about
France seeing what they could see,
wandered into the Department Of the
0rne while the sweet cider crop was
being harvested. The visitors pur
chased lot of the apples, shipped
them to the now hated Fatherland,
and later sent for more. This was the
beginning Of the export trade.
From that time until the c0mmenc-
ing Of the war there was hlg trade
with Germany. La Mans was the CEN
tire of the export business, the growers
and commission men of the towns and
cities of the departments around about
sending their crops to that centre for
shipment. A number Of Prussians
came to La Mans each autumn, and
the apples We're shipped in box cars.
The fruit that was sent to Paris and
other French cities was always piled
onto fiat cars. but the Germans in
sisted that their purchases go in GOV.
cred vans.
The Belgians also buy many carloads
of Orne grown apples. The buyers
from beautiful little Belgium take
only the sweet varieties These are
first crushed slightly for cider pur
poses, but most of the juice is allowed
to remain in the fruit, which is usec
chiefly for making jams and jellies.
