Bonsib Got in Bad

Several months ago while returning
to indianapolis from Brown county,
Louis Bonsib, now of Peru, Ind, but
at that time living In indianapolis,
witnessed q piece Of driving on the
part Of the more gfntle sex" that
almost caused him to release his grip
on the steering wheel of his automo-
bile and shut his eyes. A short time
later the same woman driver crowded
a small sedan from the road and the
occupants narrowly escaped serious
injury.
The other passenger in Bonsib's ma
chine happened to have police power
and badge and the two decided to
"step err up" to the woman driver and
warn her to be more careful in her
driving
The big car fairly ate up the road
to the other machine and, both oocu-
pants leaned out and "bawled the driy-
er out" to their hearts desire.
The next day Bonsib seemed rather
downcast and the other passenger,
who CHANGED to be next door neigh
Dor asked him what the trouble was,
Remember that woman driver we
bawled out yesterday" Bonsib asked.
Sure" was the reply.
swell, I'm in Dutch. She was my
stenogrnpher," replied Bonslb. Aesop
said 1000 years ago, "He who laughs
last laughs best."-Indianapolis News.

STATISTICS REGARDING
PRODUCTION OF APPLES

AS a matter of information to the
fruit growers who are fortunate
enough to be in the market this year
and others who may be interested,
we quote from the Chicago Packer,
which perhaps is as reliable infor-
nation as can be obtained, the per-
centage production and number OF
barrels OF apples for each state, &C
cording to the estimate Of July l of
this year, and comparison with
the report OF December. 1923.
Generally speaking, the east prom
Uses larger crop of apples than
last year. The central part of the
country will have slight reduction
although some states in this terri
tory will have few more apples
than last year. The big reduction is
in the northwest, Washington alone
being estimated at three million bar
rels or nearly ten million boxes be-
low last year According to the July
forecast, however, Washington will
still lead New York in commercial
