AMERICAN APPLES ABROAD. 

 American apples, once tasted in a 

 Dutch family, are used continually 

 thereafter, but Vice Consul D. P. De 

 Young, of Amsterdam, adds that owing 

 to indirect shipments prices are higher 

 and the condition of fruit poorer. 

 Baldwin and similar red apples are in 

 greatest demand. Local dealers de- 

 sire smaller barrels or boxes. The 

 addresses of the two large importers 

 of apples in Amsterdam may be ob- 

 tained from the Bureau of Manufac- 

 tures, Department of Agriculture, 

 Washington, D. C. 



Consul Albert W. Swalm, Southamp- 

 ton, England, suggests that exporters 

 of American apples should bear in 

 mind that the English crop this season 

 is one of the best and also one of the 

 largest for many years, pears and 

 plums being also abundant. The apple 

 supply for autumn and early winter 

 is far in excess of any for several 

 years, which will keep down the price 

 of all those imported until stocks have 

 been consumed. Early consignments 

 of American fruit for auction in Eng- 

 land might, therefore, prove bad ven- 

 tures for the shipper. 



Finer English apples have not been 

 seen in market for many years, and 

 the reports from the orchard districts 

 are most flattering. The further fact 

 that many new orchards are coming 

 into bearing this year should also be 

 considered. In dessert apples a'one 

 ^here may be a fair market for good 

 American varieties of established 

 name. 



An Australasian order for 58 car- 

 loads, comprising 28,200 boxes of 

 apples, is being filled in the State of 

 Washington. The initial shipment 

 consists of eight carloads of Yakima 

 Jonathans.

When William Rockefeller learned 

 that he had won half of the $25 offered 

 by John D. Archbold as a prize for the 

 best 12 chrysanthemum blooms at the 

 Tarrytown Horticultural Society, he 

 called his oily friend on the telephone 

 and said: 

 "Thanks for the easy money!" 

 Next to shearing the public, the 

 chief delight of the modern practical 

 multimillionaire is to trim the bank 

 account of a fellow multimillionaire.
