STABILITY IN APPLE
INDUSTRY FORESEEN

In IL of the last Is years the average
farm price of apples has been below
the general pre-war wholesale price
level of all commodities. AS the result,
millions of apple trees have been re-
moved and others have been neglected.
From 1910 to 1925 the number of APP
pie trees in the United States decreased
nearly 40 per cent. Notwithstanding
the decline in the number Of apple
trees, production of apples has been
practically maintained. These are some
of the important facts noted by the
United States Department Of Agrlcul-
tllre in an analysis of the prospects OF
the apple industry. Recent changes
and present tendencies, the department
indicates, promise better approach to
stability in the industry, but with the
number of trees now planted. COM
mercial production Is expected TO con-
TIME at a high level for several years.
Though total apple production has
declined slightly since 1917, commercial
production has steadily increased.
Moreover, carlot shipments have in
creased at an average of 1900 carloads
year since 1918, and movements by
motor truck have grown considerably.
Increased production per tree has large
ly Offset the decline in the number OF
trees The department expects further
increases in commercial apple produc-
ton during the next few years, accom-
panied, of course. by an increase in the
domestic brand resulting from popula-
ton growth The rate of increase, &C
cording to the department, will be less
than it was during the last 10 years.
The future appears somewhat brighter
for the real commercial grower who is
favorably located and who produces
apples Of high quality at low cost.
Conditions in the industry are chang
ing so rapidly. however, that success for
the individual grower requires atten-
ton to conditions throughout the coun-
try, as we'll as to the technical prob
lens of his own orchard. Apple pro-
duction is a business in which long
views are necessary. The orchard
planted today will not return a revenue
for or 10 years. When it starts pro-
ducing, however, it may be source OF
income for 30, so or so years. In the
past this fact seems not to have been
sufficiently borne in mind, and over
planting has resulted.

FOREIGN BOND LIST
ADVANCES FURTHER
High. Grade Domestic Issues
Quiet but Firm-German
Group Strong.
BY CHARLES F. sPEARE.

Special Dispatch to The star.
NEW YORK, June 5.-Recognition Of
the change for the better in the foreign
political situation and in domestic credit
conditions was reflected in higher prices
today for the bonds of European gov
eminent and continental borrowers and
for those Of American corporations.
The German group was again dis
tinctly strong, with good buying in vari-
Gus issues, in spite Of the fact that they
have had rally from the low of last

Central Bank of Agriculture IS and rs
made up more Of the losses that &C.
cured during the long decline which

Utilities Strong.
The various public utilities in the Ber-
lin district and those Of the Rhine sec
tion were also strong, with good de-
mand for German Iron g. Steel Co. OBJ
legations.
French issues we're inclined to lag
and in some instances we're fractionally
lower. and the same was true OF Bel
eians. There was better tone to the
obligations of Southeastern Euro
pean cities and countries, with Japa-
nese descriptions higher. In certain
sections of the South and Central
American list. scattered LIQUIDATION
brought about lower prices. while other
issues were showing a recovery.
There will undoubtedly be more at
tention given from now on TO the 1or-
eirn bond market. although there Is no
prospect Of any new financing In dol
lar form.
High grade domestic issues were quiet,
but diflcult 70 buy in large blocks. rms
