How THE VuRK Imperial Grows in Adams County. 

 (Every Apple Perfect.) 



turnipy fruits should go only to those who cannot tell the ditterence 

 between a Jonathan and a Ben Davis, a Bartlett and a Kietter. Peo- 

 ple need only to be educated a^ to what fruits are of high quahty 

 and a profitable demand will be created. 



It may be asked why the fruits of the Atlantic are of higher 

 quality than those of the Pacific sea-board ! It is largely a mat- 

 ter, as I have said before, of food and water. But what combina- 

 tion of these essentials produces it is still another matter and one 

 that we know nothing about. There are poor fruits grown in the 

 East as well as in the A\'est. Paul plants and Appolos waters but 

 God gives quality. In His distribution of favors He has seen fit to 

 characterize the fruits of this region by their quality and those of 

 western regions by their size and color. A\'e who have quality, have 

 been talking most about color and size which we have not. Sober 

 second thought should show us that we should make most of that 

 -which we have — quality.
