I World's Fruit Basket. Methods and Profits in Orchards of the Northwest. Writing in Collier's on "The "World's Fruit Basket." Richard Floyo Jones tells of the growth and romance of fruit farming in the West. Mr. Jones says that "though Marcus Whitman had driven his gospe! wagon into Oregon at the time Fremont set out to blaze the continental trail that resulted in the conquest of California in 184 6, the real acquisition of our Pacific Coast came when the Luelling hrnthprs with nairiotic heroism, car I Tied their apple trees in Oregon in 184 7, and the Argonauts trailed their picks and pans over the continent's rocky spine in the memorable year of '49." The Luellings were sons ot a Welsh Quaker planter and slaveholder in the Carolinas, who through force of conviction moved his family and negroes to Indiana, where he liberated his slaves and hired their labor for fixed wages. The sons became interested in fruit nurseries and drifted across the three "I" States, leaving orchards behind them in Indiana, Illinois and Iowa, finally reaching Oregon and the Willamette Valley. Mr. Jones continues: The advocates of a separate Pacific republic, who were won over on grounds of rational sentiment by Starr King and his lieutenants, were bound to the Eastern States by strong ribbons of steel in the early days of Grant's administration. And in 1883 the railroad to Portland went through, and soon followed the Northern Pacific to Tacoma. This opened the market. Before this time Florida was our or? r,A - ' rt" WOWA o 1nv_ IlUige Oltllf, ituu uiaugcs ncit a. <ua ury. California soon delivered an Abundance, and oranges became a common, though not an inexpensive - fruit. Before this time Michigan and Wisconsin were regarded as good apple States in the Central West, and Nova Scotia and New York apples were placed on the tables of the elite. The railroads soon put all these apples in the pie pan. The world got a good taste of Pa?ific fruit. The departments of Agriculture and the Interior at Washington sent special agents West to be escorted by Mr. Smith over these wonderful budding fruit lands. Hood River became the University of the Apple, ctllU tU ito uc an uciiuauj, France, Russia, Argentina, China and Japan sent special students to be totored in the fine arts of apple growing. Eastern produce merchants sent buyers West. The Niagara orchardists were puzzled that a bushel box of apples, hauled more than 3000 miles, Bhould bring a better price than a barrel of apples raised at home. The large, luxurious, costly crated cherries from the Dalles of the Columbia sold when the basket cherries of the East went to waste. The peaches and plums and grapes that came out of i this wonderland induced many a Michigan and Delaware grower to correspond with land agents a continent's width away. And California gave us orange crops that were constant and abundant. Of the chances for a poor man in "Washington and Oregon Mr. Jones says: Success here, as everywhere, depends upon the man. not upon his money. The man who rents land among the fruit fields is welcomed and assisted the first year, and perhaps the second. The third he is toerated, the fourth sees his credit fall, miu Luc ii 1 in cuuiiis uliii as> a iaiiuic. Good, unbroken fruit land can be purchased, according to location, from $50 to $100 an acre. This can be . bought for half cash and half credit. If the man is poor'he can clear it himself, and five acres ought, in the course of six years, to return him from $2000 to $3000 a year. If he can acquire ten acres, so much the beiter. From the first year he can do better than $200 an acre with strawberries and gardentruck planted between his trees. If one has money enough to buy hip land, pay for its clearing and planting, a little constant and intelligently directed work will accomplish great results. The superintendent of schools at Dayton, Wash., planted his savings in orchards until he had 100 acres in perfect, mature trees. He was not a horticulturist. but his supervision of this large orchard was his recreation. He now nets annually over $50,000. A Tacoma society woman indulged herself in a sixteen-acre orchard at Ellensburg. She soon found herself harvesting more than 7500 boxes of apples a year, which sell for about 517,000. There are many in the Yakima and Hood River valleys that do even better than this, but the average will not run as h.yjb. If an orchard is intelligently and skilfully handled It ought to yield from $700 to $900 an acre, and if the earning falls below an average of $400 to the acre there is probably something serious the matter. The railroads that have brought San Francisco nearer to New York than Boston was to Philadelphia a century ago have been the cementing agents of our national life, says Mr. Jones. The economic and political issues of Providence and Pittsburg are those also of Seattle and Spokane. 'We are a homogenous people. The scenes along the Willamette in Oregon and the shadowy St. Joe in Idaho are strikingly like much of Wisconsin and Massachusetts, except that there are the great backgrounds of lofty pines and snowcapped mountains that the East does not possess. So with the people. They cannot escape the impress of their environment. They ere less cultivated than the East, but better educated. They have largeness of conception, boldness of action, lack of provincialism and a venturesome spirit. The writer adds: The Pacific fruit growers are beginning to work collectively. Legislatures may make it a felony to ship a wormy apple across the State line? who in New York or London is going to prosecute? But the buyer of the worm doesn't go back to that kind of a bos again. The reputation of a whole valley can be killed through the carelessness or trickery of one dishonest shipper. The Kentucky slogan, "United we stand, divided we ac|V fall," Is becoming a commercial con- { viction in the West. An honest and ! attractive package is the best agent ! in any trade. It was this truth that inspired the fruit growers of Wenat- I chee, Missoula, the towns of the Ya- 1 kima Valley, Hood River and others j to organize their fruit growers into i ! cnions. The apples no longer went j forth under the meaningless names j I of Ben Brown or John Jones, but i : with the guarantee of a great and j wealthy valley. No grower was al- j lowed to pack his own apples. The J associations did it, and' did it. with j conscientious care. "Find a bad ap- j pie and we'll give you the car," was ; their confident assertion. Eastern ; traders discovered that there was a j valley standard. It was no longer . necessary to send buyers West. They could order the standard products by : wire. Ben Brown and John Jones discovered that the surest way to sell I their fruits at the highest prices was to standardize and get the valley j 'stamp on their box. But the union j idea did not stop here. The associa- t tions set o$t to educate their mem- j bers along the line of their occupa- ; tion. The unions make liberal use of ' the telegraph wires, and so make a , more intelligent distribution of wares than an individual could do. They set out to discover new markets. They j it-- 1 IJ-i * ~ V I married ine urcuaruisi iu mc uw wcultural schools of the State agricul- j tural colleges and made of a trade a i scientific profession. They taught ! caution and conservation. They i showed that, though apple trees may i live 150 years, and though their val- | ley lands were richer than the Asiatic 1 province of Shansi that has been j farmed for forty centuries, the orig- j inal orchards of the Luellings had j gone into decay through carelessness and neglect even in the virgin rich- I ness of the bank of tlie Willamette. I But the fruit growers' unions are do- | ing most as a school of applied ethics. : They erase jealousies and suspicion j and establish a trust and appreciation j ar of neighbors and a spirit of fraternal- ' of I ism and patriotism. ! ai I he MeinnuMHNHNHn; ? J SHE MANICURES AND BEAUT!- |' S FIES TOWNS. : r e?O6MOaeO0MMMta0(MO9? 80 In the past few years the passion I pa for the "town beautiful" has become ! re a national ideal. City councils have ; su taken up the work, philanthropists j sla have contributed fortunes, and civic j ? associations have put their shoulders 1 to the wheel. That everyone knows; but what scarcely anyone knows it i that the movement began in the brain of a quiet, unassuming woman in i Springfield, Ohio, says Hampton's j Magazine. Miss Jessie M. Good was an as- ' sistant in the Springfield library, and had been for sixteen years. One day, | in an interval of her work, she hap- , pened to pick up a magazine and read j therein of how the village or btocK- | bridge, Mass., in order to attract sum- 1 mer tourists, had formed a local im- j provement society to clean the town. | That was her inspiration, as narrated j with a wealth of interesting detail in ! Hampton's. Clean the town! Why j should not all towns be clean? Why j ^ were dusty streets, littered sidewalks, j ^ disfiguring vacant lots, treeless high- j ways and unsightly back yards neces- ; sary? Why should not every town ; have parks and public gardens? Miss Good told her plan to the ed- > He itor of a floriculture magazine pub- , lishea in Springfield, and wrote an ? article about it for him. The idea i inj spread, letters came in shoals, and j cei Miss Good and Mr. D. J. Thomas, the j ws editor, calling a convention of those ; cei interested, formed the American j League of Civic Improvement. That ! th was in July, 1901. A year later, at j a a meeting in BufTalo, N. Y., the ho American Park and Outdoor Art As- i ? sociation merged with the league under the title of the American Civic j Association, which now embraces j every State in the Union. Miss Good, who was born in Johnstown, Pa., is still a resident of Springfield, where she has built up a large business in the sale of plants, seeds and flowers. A Ventriloquist. Probably every one has seen a j time when he wished he could administer rebuke impersonally. The ! Springfield Republican pictures an occasion when it was done. The "grouchy" individual came j from behind his paper and glared savagely at the woman .wiih the crying baby. "Why can't you keep that ' brat quiet?" he snarled. "What's : the matter with it, anyway?" There was a dead silence in the car, ; and then a pitilessly distinct voice | from nowhere in particular replied: | "He thinks your face is the moon, i and he's crying for it." The surly one looked about with ! a deathly stare. Every one was quak- ; ing with mirth, but preserved a sol- | emn countenance except the man who j was smiling out of the window at the | other end of the car. "There are advantages in being a j ventriloquist," he murmured softly I to himself. That's All He Forgot. The cab containing the absentminded man and his family drew up in front of the Grand Central Depot, j There emerged the absent-minded: man, his wife, three children, a bird trs cage, a dog on a leash, and innumer- tri able bundles and parcels. The ab- . sent-minded man paid the driver, cii gathered up the bundles, dropped thi them and pressed his hand dramatic- ? ally to his fevered brow. "There!" he exclaimed.

The Odd Orange. The discovery of humor in dumt animals may sometimes owe a little to the observer's imagination, but Mr O'Shea, in his "Leaves From the Lift of a Special Correspondent," seems tc prove his case in an interview be tween himself and a group of jollj elephants. "A young friend," he says, "askec me to show him the elephants, so w? went with an offering of oranges which the lad was to carry. / But th( moment we reached the stable dooi the herd scented the fruit and set ui such a trumpeting that the bo] dropped the. fruit and ran like ? scared rabbit." There were eight elephants, anc Mr. O'Shea, as he picked up the or anges, found that he had twenty-five Walking deliberately along the line he gave one to each. When he goi to -the end of the narrow stable, h< turned and was about to begin th( distribution again, but suddenly re fleeted that if elephant number sever saw him give elephfcnt number eighi two oranges in succession, he mighl fancy himself cheated iand give th< distributor a smack with his proboscis; so he returned to the door anc began $t the other end of the line as before. Three times he went down the line and then he had one orange left Every elephant had his greedy gaz< focused upon that orange. It would have been as much as a man's life -was worth to give it to any one of them What was he to do? He held it ur conspicuously, coolly peeled it and ate it himself. "It was most amusing" he says, "tc notice the way those elphants nudged each other and shook their ponderous sides. They thoroughly entered ii 'tc the humor of the thing." A Subject For Study.

To vindicate the majesty of the aw, the offender was brought up for .rial. The jury were out about two ninutes. "Well," said the judge, in a familar, offhand way, "what have the jury -.o say?" "May it please the court," responded the foreman, "we, the jury, dnd that the prisoner i? not guilty of aittin' with the intent to kill, but simply to paralyze; and he done it."

"I was telling a friend about it anc she said, 'We drink nothing at meal time but Postum, and it is such z comfort to have something we can enjoy drinking with the children.' "1 was astonished that she would allow the children to drink any kind of coffee, but she said Postum was the most healthful drink in the world foi children as well as for older ones, and that the condition of both the children and adults showed that to be a fact. "My first trial was a failure. The cook boiled it four or five minutes and it tasted so flat that 1 was in despair, but determined to give it one more trial. This time we followed the directions and boiled it fifteen minutes after the bodling began. II was a decided success and I was completely won by its rich, delicious flavor. In a short time I noticed a de cfded improvement in my condition, and kept growing better and better month after month, until now I am perfectly, healthy, and do my work in the school room with ease and pleasure.
