generations and their advice. Youth
knows everything, and nothing, but youth
is one of the wonders of the world. Be
truly youthful. Do not seek to ape the
manners and sophistication of your elders.
Rejoice in the freshness and buoyancy of
your youth" He further said, TO be
young is to be interested in lie, and he
who keeps in his heart an interest in his
world and his fellow-men, who wears for
his shield, Faith and his buckler Charity,

Loyalty, will never lose the sense of youth

BLUE MOLD CAUSES LOSS
IN NORTHWESTERN APPLES

a large part of the decay in North
western apples is caused by blue mold,
an organism that seldom If ever af
fects sound fruit. AS the result of in
quiries made recently by, the Bureau
of Markets and Crop Estimates. Unit
ed States Department OF Agriculture,
it was found that some of the common
ways in which apples are injured in
commercial operations and thus made
liable to decay from blue mold are
as follows:
Bruising by the pickers or by empty
ing the fruit carclessly from The pick
ing receptacle into the orchard box.
Stacking the filled Slated bottom
orchard boxes on the stubblc Of alfal-
ia, which is commonly grown between
the trees as "A cover crop.
Careless stacking or loading or
chard boxes.
Hauling the loo fruit over rough
roads in mp ny equipped trucks
or wagons
After being delivered at the packing
house the fruit is frequently handled
roughly in unloading and stacking In
the temporary storage. Later unnec-
essary bruising is caused by careless
dumping on the sorting tables ol
feeding hoppers. \ complete discussion
of handling Northwestern apples Is
contained in Farmers Bulletin 1904
