The Spokesman has received from

Of Superior Court Judges, a copy of
the program Of the annual meeting of
the association, which is to be held in
Seattle on March 2 and 8. Judge John

In his letter inclosing the program,
Willien J.. Steinert, secretary of the

for and arrs!nging the program was
done entirely by Judge Traux, in fact,
he spent considerable time in selecting
those topics Of vital interest not only
to the judges and members ol the bar
but intimately to the people of the
state themselves, and also in occurring
speakers who were especially qualified
to present the various subjects assign
er to them."
Among the subjects to be discussed
at the meeting by the various Superior
court judges are "The Final Decree of
Divorce" Juvenile Delinquency"
Automobile insurance" "Should the

FUTURE LOOKS BRIGHTER FOR APPLE GROWERS

further indicated by; the fact that in
1925 only 13 per cent of the trees in
this area were not of bearing age,
compared with SIS per cent in 1910
IN the barreled apple region, the
number of bearing trees descreased
SO per cent from 1910 to 1925. In
TINS area the proportion cf trees
which were not Of bearing age has
remained practically constant at about
II per cent of the total number of
trees for all three census years 1910,
1920, and 1925. In certain CONNER
cial areas, notably in some section of
the Middle Atlantic States in New
England, the proportion of young
trees indicates rather large increases
in production during the next few
years, especially yearly varieties and
in some of the higher-quality fall
and winter varieties.
"Heavy production of other fruits
will continue to furnish keen COM
petition for all apple districts. A
tavcrsble factor is the tendency
toward an increase in the quantity
OF apple exports. The exports of the
last five crop years averaged approxi-
mately IL per cent Of the commercial
crop and were about two and one
half times the exports, Of the five
seasons proceeding the World War.
1t seems probably that the foreign
demand for United States apples,
especially Of the better grades, will
increase somewhat. The foreign
demand is mostly for the medium and
and small sizes. Consumers both at
home and abroad ARE demanding
higher quality than formerly in
market supplies Of apples, and sue
cessful growers s'snfraly will find
1t necessary to give more attention
to supplying their market with high
grade fruit Of desired varieties.
For the remainder ipf the 1927 crcps
season, it seems likely that the gem.
orally satisfactory m. .dket:ng condition
which have prevailed up to this time
will continue. The 1927 commercial
crop of apples in til{ United States
was 81 per cent less than that Of 1926
and 23 per cent less than the average
of the previous five years. The crop
has been moving into consumption
ct a satisfactory rate. The smaller
crops of oranges and grapefruit will
offer less competition than last season.
Cold-stcrage holdings ION January /,
1928, equivalent to mere than 20 mill,
lion bushels, were about 27 per cent
less than on January I, 1927, and Is,
per cent less than the five year average
for that date. ~
c lpetition from the large Europ-,
can apple crop of 1927, the lighter
crop and higher price Level OF Amer
ican apples, and heavy suppliesso OF
Spanish oranges in European markets.
have resulted in reduced exports of
American apples this season. Exports
from the United States and Canada,
equivalent to more than $500, 900
bushels by January II, were only a
little more than half Stsie quantity fex-
ported by the same date last year.
Well-grade and good--qucl'ty stock Of
certain varieties may. however, meet
with fair demand in some European
markets curing the remainder Of the
season. The large Australian apple
crop will offer strong competition to-
ward the end of the marketing period
for American apples"
White Bluffs spokesman. [volume] (White Bluffs, Wash.) 1907-1938, 1928-03-02

| With a record crop in 1926, a
freeze-out in certain parts of the state
last year and this and that and the
other things in some of the other
recent years, apple growers generally
have not been sitting very pretty for
some time. However, the track ahead
looks better in succeeding years, ac-
cording the Agriculture Outlook is
sued by the U. S. Department of
Agriculture, which says:
I'm the 1927 Outlook Report it was
stated that the apple industry as a
whole was gradually approaching a
| more stabilized condition, but that
commercial paintings would hardly
be justified except under unusually
favorable conditions. This statement
! is applicable to the situation in 1928,
in spite of the light yield in 1927 and
the higher prices. It is probable that
commercial apple production for the
country as whole will continue to
i increase gradually during the next
five or ten years. The rate of in
crease, however, is likely to be less
than during the last decade, for pro-
duction in the northwest appears to
have about reached it's peak and only
moderate increases are expected in
most other sections.
''Thers is nothing in the apple Out
loeJk to discourage unduly the coun-
mercial growers who are favorably
located and who produce high quality
fruit of desired varieties at a low
cost. This applies particularly to
growers, who can count upon local
demand for a particular quality or
variety, or who are so located that
they can often produce good crop
in years when the total crop is below
average. On the other hand, there
is little reason to expect profitable
production in orchards where returns
have been disappointing because Of
poor location with respect to markets
or growing conditions.
Except seasons of adverse weather
conditions, heavy market supplies of
apples have been produced in recent
years and the commercial crop of
1926 was the largest on record. This
is true in spite of the fact that the
number Of apple trees in the Uuited
States has been declining. In 1920
the number of trees in the country
was 20 per cent OF the number in
1910, and in 1925 it was 81 per cent
of the number in 1910, according to
the U. S. Bureau of the Census. In
other words, from 1910 to 1925 there
was a decrease of 6 millions of trees
out of total 217 millions reported in
1910. This decrease in the number
of trees has been mainly in the less
favored producing areas and in the
family orchard which are well scat
tered over many Of the states. Con-
centration of orchards in the more
favored districts and improved cul-
tural methods, have increased COM
mercial production.
I'm the boxed apple region, the
apple industry has developed rapidly
during the last Is years But has now
reached position Of Inofe-stabitized
production. From 1910 to 1920 the
number, Of trees Of bearing age in
this region increased rs per cent, but
from 1920 to 1925 there was de-
crease of IA rer cent. The prospect
of nore-stablized condition of prod
uction in boxed apple region is

CONGRESSMAN SUMMERS
ON IMPORTANT COMMITTEE

: The appointment of Congressman
John w. Summers. representing the
9Th district of this state as member
OF the Agriculture Appropriations
Committee of the House of Represent
etivcs, gives the farmers and fruit
growers of Washington enviable re-
presentation on the most impel.tant
committee at the national capitol. With
Senator Charles McNary OF Oregon
holding the chairmapshp Of the power
ful Agriculture Committee in the Sen
ate, it would seem that the Northwest
states are in strategic position to
command attention. 1t is well known
that both Congressman Summers and
Senator McNary are as keen for help
ing the people of Idaho and Montana
as they are for benefitting residents
of Washington and Oregon. 1t looks
like the Northwest is Sitting pretty"
down there in the District of Colum-
bia. y
Congressman Summers is the only
member of the committee from the
district west of Iowa. The appoint
mept came to him at the opening Of
the Seventieth Congress and only after
10 years OF service in the House, and
is one of the most sought after places
in Congress. The committee has
charge of legislation and approplla-
tions relating to such important prob
lens as perennial apple canker, pre-
cooking methods, storage and snip
ment of fruits, wheat smut, pure al
falfa seed, dairying, poultry, white
pine blister rust, and shipping point
Of apples. Congressman
Summers wrote and fought the ship
ing point :nsection bill through Cong
ress some FIVE years ago. That in
spection BIZ saves the fruit growers
of Washington between FIVE and ten
million dollars every year.
.Ey reason of his new appointment
Congressman Summers becomes a
member of the subcommittee which
apportions about $80,0oc.000 a year
N fec1eral aid for road building in the
different states.
A "plugger" like Congressman
Summers seems to be mighty good
man to retain at Washington, D. c..
