Washington Late apples were bet ter task early ones bat the crop was short except la favored localities where irrigation is practiced. California Orchards have asjea greatly besetted by recent rains. The ralsta seasoa Is dosed. Late grapes are heiag sent to the wineries. The oraage crop Is fair as regards yield ami of excellent quality. It Is now be ing shipped. New York Some damsge to trait trees is reported as a result of the snow and sleet storm of October 18th. The Kansas Horticultural Society has issued the following estimate con cerning the 1W1 apple crop of that state: Number of acres in apple or chards, 159.4v; number of bearing trees, IJSUSS; average crop per tree, 3 bushels; total crop for state,-2S,-26C.763 bushels; average price per bushel, 9 cents; total value of crop. I15.820.e51; average gross receipts per acre, $t. The Ontario Department of Agricul ture estimates the yield of apple in that province as 18,834.224. bushels or less thaa 4 per cent of last year's crop. Pears yielded an average crop of fair quality. Grapes yielded well. The oranges and grape fruit of Flor ida have colored nicely and shipments from that state are now heavy but the flavor of the fruit is not yet up to par. The acreage of strawberries is large but plants seed rain. BarUealteral observation. The growing of violets In winter has received some attention at the experi ment stations. Last year the Tennes see station succeeded admirably with plants that had been grown from seed planted the previous spring. The grow ing of violets fits in well with the work of farmers living near the cities whose gardening has developed sufficiently to enable them to have a good system of hot-beds for summer work and some thing In the nature of a hot-house for wlater work. In the South ss well as in the North the problem of how to protect the trees against cold is an important one. Among the orange groves of Florida temperature a little below the freezing point is ss much dreaded as is 30 be low zero In the North. Of course, among the devices for protecting the trees about everything has been tried. Some of the methods are probably too expensive to become popular, while others are of doubtful value. Among the various methods to which our at tention has been called are the follow ing: Fires of faggots are built between the rows of trees; young trees are banked ap with sand; sheet iron stoves are placed between the trees and mod erate fires kindled in them; trees are covered with cloth or water-proof pa per, and lamps or oil stoves used be neath these covers; groves are en closed with high palings of cheap lum ber. The great cost of covering trees with tents or temporary houses makes that method of protection practically oat of the question, yet It has been at tempted by some men. Gradually apple growers are getting down to a uniform apple barrel, a bar rel that holds three bushels. Hitherto the lack of uniformity in the barrels has caused much dissatisfaction among buyers as well as among honest apple sellers. The dishonest man has no par ticular objection to a barrel that is short in capacity. One result is that the market quotations based on barrels' give no real idea of the true state of the market. The standard barrel meas ures 17 Inches across the head, Is 28 Inches high, and has a circumfer ence of 64 Inches around the bulge. Ul timately the bushel box will, we be lieve, drive out the barrel. It can be more certainly measured and can be packed with less loss of space. The barrel has the advantage of being of such shape that it can never be packed in any manner so as to prevent a cir culation of air. The Camera! Fralt Crop. A report from Washiagtoa says that of the 14 states having 3,000,000 or up ward apple trees In bearing at the Eleventh Census, 7 report an npple crop comparing unfavorably with their respective ten-year averages. Among these are New York with. less than one third, and Pennsylvanlawith less than one-half of an average .crop, a half crop being also barely exceeded in Michigan aad Texas. While crops In excess of the respective ten-year aver ages are reported from several more or less important apple-growing states, such excess is especially noteworthy only in Kansas, where the crop is nearly 50 per cent above the ten-year average and is the largest since 1891. While the pear crop is by no means a failure, It not only falls considerably short of the crop of last year bat also compares unfavorably with the ten year average. This to due mainly to the deficiency in New York and Cali fornia, a majority of the more Impor tant pear-growing states reporting n production somewhat above their ten year averages. The production ot grapes is somewhat below the ten-year average, the crops of California aad New York being slightly below snd that of Missouri considerably below the respective state averages for the ten year period, with only a relatively un important increase of production in other states. Oatrylag iaKaa. ' Professor E. R. Nichols, Presideat of the Kansas Agricultural college, says: We have expended 825,000 for aa ag ricultural building. 810,000 for dairy apparatus and 85.000 for a dairy herd and shelter, giving Kansas one ot the best equipped dairy schools in the United -States. Kansas offers Ideal conditions for profitable dairyiag mild climate, short winters, fertile, soils, cheap feeds and good markets. The mild winters necessitate cheap shelter only.

There are nearly 500 creameries, shimming stations and cheese factories in Ks'niff" The more milk each of, these plants receives the less will he the cost of operation per 1,000 of milk received, and the higher be the price per pound paid for butter fat To be most profitable to the. farm ers of the state, these plants must re ceive ten times their present supply of milk. The greater the production of milk and butter-fat In the state the greater will be the profits to all eon nected with the dairy interests. Kan sas Is well equipped with dairy manu facturing establishments, but the milk supply Is much too small to make dairying most profitable.- For these reasons the chief work of the Kansas dairy school will be to give instruction to farmers In milk production, in cluding the selection of the cow, han dling and feeding her, the care of her milk and calf and the feeding of sum milk, buttermilk and whey to secure greatest profit Kansas cows have been bred chiefly for beet Secretary Cpburn reports the average yearly value of the product of the Kansas dairy cow to be 89.65. Several creameries report that the av erage receipts per cow per year for their patrons is 820. This college se cured, In 1808, an average per cow of 887.76 for butter-fat at creamery prices from a scrub herd that in quality were much below the average cows of the state; and one scrub cow, for which we paid 830. returned 860.88 for butter fat and gave a net profit above cost of feed of 840.37. These records show that with, the cows they now own, Kansas dairymen can, with proper feed and care, double and treble the present milk yield and make an even greater increase in their net profits. We want farmers and farmers' boys from every township In Kansas to at tend our dairy school and learn to feed and handle cows so as to secure these results. Edlbla redded Fan.

To the Farmers' Review: I would give bogs any pasture 1 could get rather than to keep them in pens when they are growing. I am pre paring to fence off a small piece of rape for my hogs and pigs. Alfalfa is used very successfully by some farmers here. I said to a man who owns a bottom farm with alfalfa meadows and pastures on it: "I wish I had a hundred acres of alfalfa and all the hogs it would carry." He an swered: "Then you would have a thousand head." I would have in a pasture only such trees as would be necessary to furnish the shade hogs need in summer and would have shed shelter for cold weather. Good clear water Is more of an insurance against disease than any one thing. In my ex perience, good pastures will go far to wards preventing disease among hogs, especially the so-called hog cholera. 1 think a variety of grazing is a very beneficial thing for the growing pig. D. W. Kingsley, Montgomery Co., Kans. Cow Pans KIpaaaA at Madison. From Farmers' Review: In regard to cow peas sown at the Wisconsin sta tion this season I will say that I sowed the WhlppoorwiU variety (southern grown seed) in drills 32 inches apart using about V& pecks of seed per aereT The seed was sown May 14 and peas were harvested Oct 2 giving a yield of 9 bushels per acre. Some of them did not mature on account of the early frosts. Many of the peas ripened a month in advance of others These early maturing plants were designated and peas picked, and an effort will be made next year to develop an .early variety. A full account will be given in the eighteenth report of the sta tion's work. R. A. Moore. Wisconsin Agricultural College. th of ESward SaaSanao.

However, since that time lis mad has been thoroughly draiaei ttoth by the use-of large, open ditches, tad also by the free use of tile drains, !t Is scarcely necessary to say that where this has been one the marshes lave furnished our very best corn 'ends. The reason, of course, for this 's quite spparent The fertility has oeen constantly washing down from the higher lands daring the centuries psst, the result being that large de posits of fertilizing elements are made m these puces. So longvas they are water soaked, of course they are al most worthless, but as soon as the water Is removed the proper physical condition of the' soil -Is very soon brought about after which it Is won derfully productive. It to rather a dif ficult question Just to know what to do with these soils the first few years after they are drained. However, our experience to that nothing to more sat isfactory than a crop of fax. For this I would advise plowing la the tall and thoroughly preparing the soil in the spring before seeding. As the seed of flax to small, I know of no crop that responds more liberally to a thorough preparation of the surface soil. That Is where many persons make their "to take. The tendency to on newly brok en soil to give It about one stroke with a harrow and put In your seed broad cast However, If the soil could be thoroughly disced down and the fax seeded with a drill much of this son will produce 20 to 25 bushels of tax per acre. At present prices of max this makes a crop that is quite valuable. In many instances it to possible to get at least two crops of flax, although it sometimes occurs that the second crop is not quite so thrifty ss the first one. After cropping with flax in this man ner most of these soils will la our locality grow corn. However, as the section spoken of to somewhat north of this. I think that millet would grow very satisfactorily Indeed. It to also possible to sow some of the spring cereals and cut them as hay crops. I would advtoe cutting them as hay crops for the reason that they are apt to grow too rank, and scarcely ever fill well on these rich soils. Of all the clovers, none will do quite so well ss the Alsike. ss this Is adapted to lower, wetter anil In the COUTSe Of S fSW years I think such soil will become well adapted to the growth of red clover and timothy, and, indeed, all tho cereals after the raging fertility of the soil has been to some extent checked. Let me again repeat that the growth of these crops which I have mentioned presupposes- -that these marshes are thoroughly drained. The cost of putting down tile drains to a depth of four feet may seem to be a large investment and yet I know of none that will pay a better dividend providing intelligence to used In the cultivation of the soil and the proper rotation of crops during the succeed ing years. James Atkinson, Iowa Agricultural College. Adaptability of Wheats. Probably no better work to being done by any of the experiment stations than by those that are ascertaining by actual practice what wheats are adapt ed to the states In which said stations are situated. One of the most costly mistakes of our agriculturists to the at tempt to grown varieties of fruits and plants over wide areas of country very diverse in soil and characteristics. Be cause a certain variety of wheat has been found to be best in the state ot Ohio it has been assumed that the same variety would do well in nil other states in the area la which wheat to grown extensively. But tests at other stations show that this does not fol low. The problem cannot be worked out In one state and serve as the an swer of the same problem in all the states. As an illustration of this we refer to Minnesota, which has been for many years experimenting along this line. So far hard Fyfe and Blue Stem have been found to be best adapted to Minnesota conditions. These two wheats have not been found to be the best in some of the other states. What is true of the states Is probably true to some extent ot the counties within the states. The work ot any station to therefore ss yet incomplete. The In telligent fanner must to a consider able extent depend on his own experi ments to determine what wheats will give the best yield in his county and on his own farm. Plains a Typo. From the Farmers' Review: I have never done much in-breeding, as I do not regard that practice as a good one. L have used it some in fixing a type In cattle. Though I have done some lit tle of this, I always like to have an out-cross near It I have also some times done a little in-breeding with sheep, Just to fix a type, but have al ways tried to cross "out" ss soon as possible with a sheep ss near my ideal as I could find. It will not do to "in-' breed" with sheep very much, as It in jures the constitution and has a ten dency to make the sheep small. I'am not much of an advocate of in-breeding, and the man that does it should understand bis business. The novice should let it alone. ... I have a very nice hunch of sheep, which I will exhibit st the International Live Stock Show. George Allen, Vermilion Coun ty, Illinois. Crape for th OreharJ. From the Farmers' Reveiw: It is an open question with many what crop to grow In the orchard. I have grown corn, cow peas, soja beans; sorghum and' several other things In a small way. In the bearing orchard I prefer cow peas and soja beans for Jane and July planting. I can then pasture those crops oaT with sheep after the ap ples are off the trees. For the younger trees I have been growing soja beans and cow peas for seed and feed. I have quit growing corn and sorghum la the orchard. For a winter mulch I would prefer a vetch, but the high price ol vetch seed prevents its use. Canada peas I have used and like. .Barley and oats do welL I believe that sorghum sown in August and early September might be a good-winter mulch. A. A Hiakley, Washington County.

Conlen. vice president of the Chicago, Rock Island ft Mexico, ss Chief Engineer and General Manager, while from San ta Rosa to Csrrizoso, a distance of 130 miles, the construction work was given to the El Paso ft Northeastern, which already had a constructed line from El Paso to Csrrisozo. The road from Lib eral to Carrizozo will be equipped with eighty-pound steel rails, oak or pitch pine ties, aad modern ballasting. De pot side tracks, switches, station houses, yardings. water tanks, and Western Union telegraph lines have all kept pace with actual road building. and when the road is opened by the ' first of next year it will be in as perfect condition u any of the lines of the Rock Islsnd system that have been In service for years. In connection with the Rock Islsnd-El Paso line is the new thirty-mile railroad which to to develop the immense Dawson coal fields, owned by the Rock Island, on the Beaubien and Miranda grant, in the northern part of- Colfax county, N. M. This foad will leave the main Rock Island rails st or nesr Liberal station, twenty miles southwest of the Cana dian river crossing, snd run through the New Mexican counties of Ssn Mi guel, Mora snd Colfsx. This branch will be completed by May 15, 1902. The coal is to feed the southeastern por tion of the Rock Islsnd-El Paso line, and probably will largely supply the Southern Pacific railroad, in addition to a heavy domestic custom in that section of the country. The comple tion of the. El Paso line will give the Rock Islsnd a route of 222 miles short er between Kansas City snd El Psso than that of the Santa Fe between the same points, together with a saving of fifteen hours of time, the letter fact being largely due to the favorable alignment and maximum 1 per cent grade of the new Rock Island line. In connection with the Southern Pacific, the Rock Island will have a shorter line from Chicago to Los Angeles than will the Santa Fe. The construction cost of the Rock Islsnd-El Paso line will spprozlmate 17,000.000, an average of about $15,000 per mile. Chicago Tribune.
