It Is reported that the guinea fowl Is gradually gaining In popularity as a profit winner.

' : 14 apples to the tier; apples about the size of a lemon, and every box was put up In the same way. The grocer told the apple grower In words not to be misunderstood, that If he did not hereafter grade his fruit that he would not buy any more fruit of him; that to grade the apples, putting tier apples In boxes to themselves, and the 14-tier apples to themselves, and then he would gladly buy; that peo ple did not want to pay a good price for a box of apples that contains but one tier of the kind they thought they were buying; but would be will ing to buy a box of the small apples If the box was graded with all the same size. The grocer said he want ed to be able to guarantee a box of, apples to be the same all the way throught, or money would be refund ed If they were not as he said. . If the grocers and all others that handle apples and other fruits would do as this grocer has decided to do, and refuse to buy ungraded fruit, then this place would gain a better reputa tion as a fruit center. The DalleB Bnnlness Mens' association, ought 'to take this matter up with fruitgrowers. Last season strawberries here wore not graded.'' Every housewife knows i this. Each box contained culls and dirty, sandy berries, many of them moulded, and then topped with big beautiful berries. Now, when people pay 25 cents a box for strawberries they are paying this because they think they are buying a box filled with big fine berries. The man who sells fruit ungraded fo ra high price Is getting money under false pre: tenses and ought to be made an ex ample of for the protection of the people who do the buying.
