"Mount Gilead" Hydraulic Cider Presses 

 Are Not Experiments 



"pOR forty years they have assisted apple growers everywhere in 

 -•- wiping out the apple waste from windfalls, culls, undergrades, etc. 

 These cost just as much to grow as the highest grade of apples— yet 

 they are unmarketable. However, there is no needof losing them, 

 because they may be made into Good Marketable Cider. 



Our presses are made in any size up to 400 bbls. per day. We 

 also make evaporators, apple butter cookers, vinegar genera- 

 tors, filters, etc. Write today for catalog.

MICA Axle Grease offers 

 extra protection. By a spe- 

 cial process, powdered mica is 

 blended with highest quality 

 petroleum grease. The mica 

 forms a smooth coating on the 

 spindle that keeps it cool and well 

 lubricated. And the mica makes Mica 

 Axle Grease last twice as long. Get a

less a policeman, and must foster and 

 solicit the cooperation of the grower. 

 I find that wherever the sentiment of 

 the majority of growers favors law en- 

 forcement we get results that arc last- 

 ing with no greal etforl, and these situ- 

 ations prevail only where people can 

 be brought together in some form of 

 organization or meeting, and can be 

 induced to see the actual conditions and 

 its ctmsequence together. In other lo- 

 calities where this cannot be accomp- 



lished the commissioners have made no 

 particular effort to enforce the law, be- 

 lieving thiit they are avoiding a course 

 tliat would entail large expense upon 

 the taxpa> ers anil bring no satisfactory 

 results from (he standpoint of the 

 grower. 



Tiiere has been considerable criticism 

 leveled at the insiiectors because of 

 their tendency to be lenient until the 

 desired education could be accomp- 

 lished that would result in connnunity 



elT'ort. It has also been said that our 

 horticultural laws were not suflicient to 

 cope with the problem. But let me 

 pause here to say that our present code 

 of horticultural laws are the result of 

 long and patient constructive effort on 

 the part of our best growers and ex- 

 perts in that Hue, and I am firm in my 

 belief, wilh what experience I have had 

 that they are the best code of horticul- 

 tural laws yet enacted by any state in 

 the union. We have power to intercept 

 or eradicate any disease or pest, and to 

 carry on any rational program for the 

 protection of our great fruit industry, 

 each county having the authority in 

 proportion to its needs for that pur- 

 pose, and whether or not these laws are 

 enforced depends to very large degree 

 upon the grower himself. In fact, very 

 few serious problems face us that are 

 not directly the result of the lethargy 

 and lack of interest of those growers 

 themselves, who desire protection. For 

 instance, I have a county in mind in my 

 district where the county ofTicials are 

 opposed to allowing any funds what- 

 ever for inspection or advice along that 

 line. These oflicials are not fruit grow- 

 ers and know nothing of the problems 

 of the fruit grower, and they deny the 

 growers the right to claim any part of 

 the county funds for that purpose. 

 Partly for political reasons, and partly 

 because the inspectors did not begin 

 cutting down people's orchards sum-
