AN APPLE "A DAY

t l.aIt III ~
There is no reason why everyone
should mob have an apple every day
the coming winter. Several Charlton
county farmers sprayed their orchards
last spring and have q lot Of mighty
fine worthless apples for sale at very
reasonable prices. We do not wish
the doctors any bad luck, but If all
the folks in Charlton county would
plan on eating at least one apple a
day for the next eight months, there
. is no doubt the doctSrs would be used
less, Right now the apples are ripe
and it is time to take care Of them
before they fall on the ground and
not. II you don't have cellar Of
your own rent one or go halves with
your neighbor who has a cellar and
lay in supply of about rs bushels Of
apples while you can get them.
Listen, Jonathans, Grimes Golden,
Jenetins, Wine Saps and Delicious,
Isn't this list enough to make your
mouth water? Apples OF these yarie-
ties, clean, sprayed and hwormless are
available in Charlton County at prices
from twenty-five cents to one dollar
per bushel in the various orchards of
the county. Sprayed apples will keep
much better than unsprayed fruit.
Find out who has clean fruit in your
/. .neighborhood and get some right now
this and next week.
Here is list of few of the folks
whom we know sprayed their fruit;
Rufus Cabhart, Ed Gessling, Forest
Green; John Sheaves, George Friesz,
George Isert, Salisbury; Ed Kuhler,
Perry Allen, KeytesviIle; Mr.. Guilford,
Rockford; Mr.. Steiman, Dalton; The
Steurm & Heck Orchards, east of
Brunswick. This list may not be quite
complete, but in all Of the orchards
mentioned good apples are going to
waste and there are few thousand
people in Charlton County who ought
to make ii q point to go to these or,
chards and lay in a supply Of winter
apples.
The Grass-hopper futters away
his time in the summer and does not
lay up anything for winter. The ant
and the bee are busy laying up feed
for the winter when the harvest is
ripe Right now is the time for you
to consider the ant and the bee and
make note Of the fact that the apple
harvest is on, and that about next
February and March you would enjoy
going down cellar and bringing up
a basket Of nice fine red apples.
Fairs and Shows
Charlton County folks are sure hav-
ing a lot of fine agricultural fairs and
shows this year: Prairie Hill, SAL
isbury, Forest Green, Brunswick, Men
don and Keytesville. Count them 1,
2,3, A, S, 6 progressive communities
in which the people have pride in them
selves and their products commune
, ties in which there are public spirited
folks who have given of their time
and money for the up building Of their
communities Every community is a
better place in which to live because
Of the pride developed around It in
all industries. Who would want to
live in a community where there was
no pride Good farm land. good
live stock, good corn and wheat, busi-
hess men who give service, good boys
and girls. happy families; these are
all things which are going to make life
worth living in Charlton county. We
! have attended the fairs at Prairie Kill,
Salisbury and Forest Green, and are
looking forward with pleasure to the
one at Brunswick and Mendon, and the
Corn Show at Round up at Keytes-
vile. We believe that Charlton coun-
ty is whole lot better place to live
than some far of unknown city or
other county which we KNOW little
