Countrywide Produce Situation 
Selling the apple crop is surely going 
to lie one of the season > troublesome 
.•bores. Production this season is so 
large and so evenly distributed that every 
main consuming section seems to have 
large reserves of apples within easy ship¬ 
ping distance. That makes it hard for 
the distant shipping sections. It is the 
first season of big crops iu both the bar¬ 
rel and box apple sections. 
1 ast season the scarcity in the Last 
made a demand for Western apples of any 
grade. Many were shipped in bulk with¬ 
out much grading or bother, and the West 
liked the plan; no expensive packing 
methods, but net cash at the ear. door. 
Western growers, especially those in the 
Rocky Mountain region, would like to sell 
bulk apples this year, but the demand 
fails to show up. Every section has its 
own low-grade apples to use up. llie 
West will have enough to do to sell even 
its fancy boxed apples at a paying price. 
Fsually it does little good to try and trad 
a buyer by writing to a thud person, but 
here is a letter from a Colorado apple 
grower looking f"i* markets, and also a 
fetter from au exporter who wants boxed 
apples to ship to Egypt. Let them dis¬ 
miss it together. 
SKI.LING AT LONG KANGE 
The great difficulty in putting through 
a trade of this kind is that neither knows 
the other. A buyer hesitates to place an 
order unless he kuows that the shipper 
has experience and honesty enough to 
put up a good carload of <tiM*k. .ami can 
guarantee its delivery. The shipper on 
his part wants to know that he will get 
his money fairly and squarely. I or 
these reasons, in writing to each other, 
the first thought should be to put him sell 
in the other’s place ami supply the facts 
and references that give confidence. The 
local bank probably would be able to look 
uf) the dealer in commercial reference 
books, while the grower might not be 
rated at all. This is another reason why 
growers should form selling associations. 
Any buyer would rather order of an asso¬ 
ciation than of a single grower whom he 
has never heard of before. Many groups 
of apple growers will be trying hard for 
a good outlet soon, and sticb times are 
favorable to associations as a selling 
basis. 
the near-by crop 
Sometimes a very simple plan will do 
the trick. Just send the best man with 
samples to the city and have him talk it 
over with the dealers until he finds one 
with a good reputation in the trade who 
will take the neighborhood crop at a fair 
price. If the dealer will come out to look 
the crop over, so much the better. '1 he 
buyer would rather buy large quantities 
in one place, and the growers can do bet¬ 
ter selling to one dealer if they make the 
deal carefully. In Rome districts there 
are certain, dealers who expect to handle 
the crop every year anil who have cus¬ 
tomers that ask for .just that fruit. When 
growers, dealers and retailers are tied to¬ 
gether this way, it. is a fine thing in a 
big crop year. 
The early apple crop has' been selling 
low all season, but showed a little im¬ 
provement in the early part of Septem¬ 
ber. Fanners, as a rule. have not been 
getting over 50e per bu. for standard 
kinds. The price opening for late apples 
is variable and unsettled. We hear of 
stock olTer n d at $1.25 per box in the 
Northwest; the same grades brought $2.25 
a year ago. On the other hand, the re¬ 
ported sales of choice Ohio orchards at 
$4.50 to $5 per bhl. for the Southern 
trade looks pretty good for the growers. 
In most parts of the East the buyers are 
not yet talking business on the main crop.

The Benefit of Change 
(Continued from page 1173) 
A thing like the rot in Central New 
York late potato field* this Fall and the 
drought iu the Western States is the ouly 
11 rice-fixer that we are likely to have. 
Men are not bom equal, and nothing can 
be done about it. So the best thing for 
a philosophical country man to do is to 
draw his family together and live within 
his own gates. See how many of the old- 
fashioned family traditions we have left 
out these last hectic years. The other 
day I bought a hook of Bible stories from 
a book agent. It cost too much, but I 
was amazed to see how nine-year-okl 
Elsie was drawn by the simply writteu 
recital of the Flood, and the strange un¬ 
forgettable picture of those sinful, reck¬ 
less men and women who drowned. I 
was brought up with a book like that— 
it being looked to pieces long ago—but I 
had actually forgotten what it meant to 
me as a child. I believe no child can be 
well-balanced without tin's old-fashioned 
training, a passing knowledge of what is 
in the background of history. The plots 
i<f the Bible are terribly dramatic and 
fascinating, and the language a work of 
art. As a child who found Sunday school 
dull, I am apt to think that a stronger 
hold is gained by the children by reading 
this book at their mother’s knee. It 
isn't so much the names and years of in¬ 
dividuals that I want them to get. I 
want them to feel the presence of a 
Creator. 
B-z-z! That} if I am not mistaken, is 
Daddy’s truck coming home from mar¬ 
ket. A cold blue day it is! I.aying some 
shingles and dry wood on the coals in 
the fireplace brings a fine blaze and two 
round-eyed kittens to watch it, while 
their mistresses have gone ro explore for 
candy. Old Tiger George keeps a baleful 
eye on the kittens, who durst not ven¬ 
ture near the sweep of those sharp claws 
of his. I peep out at the fast gathering 
darkness, and there is a terrible hiss and 
a growl. Little Tiger, in a fit of hero 
worship, had ventured to put his nose to 
the tip of old George’s tail, and he is 
cross enough to leave the house by the 
opening door. 
"Thu-ni,” says Daddy, nibbing his 
hands. "Fair week! Wet weather! No 
potatoes much on the market. We got a 
dollar a bushel.” Mas. F. n. cnger.

It was the drawing lesson, and a class 
of small children were drawing from 
memory. They had been told to draw u 
river, witb two figures sitting ou the 
bank, oue of whom was to be fishing. The 
teacher was going around the class, when 
she came to a small boy who had fin¬ 
ished liis drawing. She looked at bis 
paper and was surprised to find only a 
liver. "Why, .Tack,” she said, "where are 
the two people I told you to draw?” 
“Well, you see. Miss Jones,” he answered. 
"I'm not very good at drawing people, so 
I’ve put up a notice: ’Trespassers will 
be prosecuted!'"—New York Globe.
