MANY NEW FRUITS
BEING DEVELOPED
NEW YORK HORTICULTURE
lists PROUD OF RESULTS
THEY HAVE OBTAINED.

New varieties of apples, pears cher
ries, plums, grapes, raspberries and
strawberries developed on the grounds
of the New York state agricultural
experiment station at Geneva were de
scribed bv Richard Wellington, asso-
ciate horticulturist at the station, be
fore a gathering of fruit growers in
attendance at the Goth annual meeting
of the New York State Horticultural
Society recently says the New York
Times. All OF these new sorts have
given sufficient promise OF superiority
over existing varieties 10 merit nam
ing and propagating for trial in other
localities, said Mr. Wellington. But
trying new varieties on a large scale
is nothing but a gamble, he added,
and the growers were urged to try
out the new kinds in a small way IN
til they could tell what they would
do on different soil and under differ
ent climatic conditions.
"The Cortland, a McIntosh-like ap-
pie which was awarded a silver medal
at the apple show in New York city
last November, and the Golden De
hcious are attracting the most favor
able attention among fruit growers,
Mr. Wellington continued. -Four new
apples of the popular Mcintosh type
have now been developed in addition
to the Cortland. These include the
Early Mcintosh, which ripcns about
a month ahead OF Mcintosh; the Mil
ton which is about a month later;
the Macoun, a still later type, and
Sweet Mcintosh, an apple which re-
sembles the Mcintosh in every respect
except that it is sweet. Madina, an
improved Delicious apple, and Sweet
Delicious are also said to give prom
Use for the future,
"A new sweet cherry OF excellent
quality that is earlier by two weeks
than the Black Tartartan has been
named Seneca, and is considered one
OF the best contributions of the sta
ton plant breeders to the fruit indus
try. The Sheridan grape IS reported
to have outyielded Concord at Fredo-
MIA. where it is being grown in the
station vineyard Ontario and Port
land, new early white grapes, are also
receiving favorable comments. While
it is too early to tell how the three
new red raspberries and the three
new strawberries sent out from the
station last year have behaved else
where. on the station grounds they
have continued to give most favorable
results"
The new fruits developed by the
station specialists are perfected to the
point where they are thought to be-
worthy of naming and further trial
when they are turned over to the New
York State Fruit Testing Co-Opera
tive Association, Inc, with headquar
tiers at Geneva. This association prop
agates stock of the. new sorts and dis
tributes it among its members for
trial

TREE OF STRANGE WOOD
FOUND AFLOAT IN PACIFIC
Unable to Classify 1t. Taken to Mo
ra, Washington.

Searching for derelict schooner
reported drifting 80 miles off the
coast, the coast guard cutter Haida
picked up a large tree from forest
in another part OF the world, says the
New York World. Unable to classify
the strange wood the Haida took
it to Mora, Wash, and beached it.
Some woodsmen think it is a red
wood tree, but the formation OF
branches and almost grantees center
dispose OF this theory. 1t is believed
the big tree was carried by currents
from Oriental water or from a mid
Pacific island

A THREE DAyS' , COUCH IS YOUR
 DANGER SIGNAL

Chronic coughs and persistent colds lead to serious lung trouble. You can stop them now with Creomulsion, an emulsified creosote that is pleasant to take. Creomulsion Is a new medical discovery with twofold action; it soothes and heals the inflamed membranes and kills the germ.
 Of all known drugs, creosote is rec ognized by the medical fraternity as tho greatest healing agency for the treat men of chronic coughs and colds and other forms of throat and lung troubles. Creomulsion contains, iE addition to creosote, other healing elements which soothe and heal the inflamed mem- branes and stop the irritation and in- flammation, while the c-eosote goes on to the stomach, Is absorbed into the blood, attacks the seat of tho trouble and destroys the germs that lead to consumption.
 Creomulsion is guaranteed satisfac- tory in the treatment of chronic coughs and colds, bronchial asthma, catarrhal bronchitis and other forms of throat and lung diseases, and Is excellent for building up the system after colds or the flu. Money refunded if any cough or cold, no matter of how long stand- Ing, Is not relieved after taking accord Ing to directions. Ask your druggist, Creomulsion Co.,. Atlanta. Ga. (Adv.)

 Then he walked to the door and lighted a cigarette, and grinned at two well dressed young men on the thres' hold.
 "Too late," said he. "It's out of my hands now"
 That's all the man who saw the per fcrmance knows about it. Wonder what had happened? And what sort of a plot for short story might be in it?
 And here's another glance-provoca- tive and incomplete-at the drama that is being played about us all the time. A young man and woman were stroll ing down the avenue. Well dressed, ap- parently of the well to do and cultured sort, engrossed in conversation with each other. A big limousine rolled to the curb and man with the air of a private officer hopped out. An elder ly woman spoke through the window;
 Get in," she said to the girl. She said it with a punch. The private of ficer hunched between the girl and her escort.
 Keep off, sir" he said, respect fully. Do not interfere"
 The girl got in, followed by the priv, ate officer. The young man raised his hat. The limousine rolled away. Won der what it was all about?
