Apple-ricking Now In Full Blast;
5000 Bbls. in Byrd's Orchard

Apple-plcking is i'll full blast
in the big apple belt i'll this sec
Ition of the Valley of Virginia
despite the late spring freeze,
tie crop will be a good one i'll
many of the orchards. Senator
Harry T. Byrd, the biggest grow
er in the Valley, expects to bar
lvest 81, 900 barrels from his four
Ibig orchards. From his big or
chard west of Berryville, the lar-
dest hit by the freeze, he will
pick only 5000 barrels against a
normal yield between 1000 and
| s, 900 barrels.
Senator Byrd's orchard is now
the scene of intense activity. The
Senator himself has forgotten
politics, and newspaper editing
and has donued the overalls and
clod-hopper shoes and is out work
ing as hard as the hardest work
ed man in the big group of pick
ers and packers.
Senator Byrd grades his apples
closely. They pass down chute
and must go through four persons
hands for ms oection and grading
before they are dumped into a
ba rrel and nailed up. Every APP.
pie with the slightest flaw is
picked up.
Every barrel, after being pack
ed, is stamped with the name Of
H. F. Byrd, Winchester, Va,
Valley of Virginia Brand" The
seconds also carry Mr.. Byrd's
name. These are not as large as
firsts, but they are good sound
apples.
Mr.. Byrd has arranged for a
state inspector to inspect his
packed apples. This inspector
visits tile orchard every dav.
selects a number Of barrels at
random and then goes through
them. If he finds less than 1OI
per cent, apples below the grade !
the barrel is given the stamp of |
the State Horticultural Depart
ment. Out-of State buyers there
fore know the apples have been
inspected by the state and have
passed muster as to grade.

Babson Says Tariff To Boost
Living Costs Ten Per Cent

The cost of living is going
to take a ten per cent jump
within the next six months.
You are going to pay at least
10 per cent more for your food
and lodging, rent, heat, and
clothes than you are paying now.
And you can thank the Ford
ney-McCumber protective tariff
bill.
The greatest living authority
OIL business statistics says so
Roger w. Babson.
Your meat and your drink, your
sweets and fruit, even your cigar
cites aud your matches--they re
all going to set you back 10 cents
more on the dollar.
There isn't a single thing You
can do about it-except to pay it.
The Republican party signed
its own death warrant for the
immediate future with the same
pen that signed the tariff bill III
Babson's opinion.
because. points out Babsou,
"the cost of living jump is going
to hit the straight Republican
ticket man just as hard as its 60
ing to hit his Democratic brother.
We've put the vested interests
in and now we've got to sit back
and watch them play the game
their own way. There isn't any =
thing to be done about il. There
have been no broken rules: the
tariff makers naturally enough,
are going to work for the interests
they represent. And when the
pinch comes, we've just got to
remember that we put them in. y
The duty placed by the new
tariff on commodities affected by
It, ranges from three or four to
one hundred per cent. The aver
age duty has been estimated at
something over SO per cent
Based on the imports which the
treasury expects in the twelve
months following the passage of
the bill, the revenue should be
over $500, 900, ZOO. Foreign vaIua-
tions is the basis of the bill
Which means, 'vsays Babson,
that the domestic manufacturer
is going to put his prices up to
just about the mark the importer

Senator Paul Opens Campaign

The Congressional Campaign in the
Seventh District Twas 1 opened in
Woodstock on Saturday night
when Senator John Paul, Republican
nominee for Congress, addressed a
large and deeply interested audience
from enandoah and adjoining couties.
The speaking was held in the Court
House which was filled to its full capa-
'city
Senator Paul in clear and interest
ing manner discussed the Republican
platform, the issues of the present
campaign and gave review of what
Congress has done within the past few
months. He discussed at some length
the Ship Subsidy Bill that will probably
come up during the next Congress, be-
lieving as he does that the people gen.
orally do not understand this bill, and
stating that he is in favor of it.
The recent Paul-Harrison contest
was not referred to at any time during
the speech. Senator Paul said in part:
THE Republican Administration
took over an administration that was
spending 5000, 900, 600 dollars a year.
Within the past two years this expen-
diture has been reduced to little over
81, 600, 0OO,0 900. We took overa country
in enonomic chaos. The President had
been az invalid for more than a year,
and apparently no attention had been
given to the problem of national ex-
penditures. 1t was too much to expect
Of any administration that within year
they would bring things to normal, and
yet in spite of terrific handlcaps, the
national expenditures have been cut
n half.
