The orange has for many years
been the object of the greatest enro.
No wods are permitted to grow among
the orange trees nor is the ornnge
grove ever used to pasture hogs and
cattle. Yet with all the tender and
Intelligent solleltmle for the orange
there Is no variety In Its color. The
flavor Is always the same. It Is good
to eat raw, but Is spoiled by cooking.
It Is a poor keeper. From the time
It Is picked It bejttns to detorlornte.
Whether the market Is favorable or
. , , . will be possible, and In a few years'
not Is must be shipped at once after
gon, Washington and Idaho. It murt
be borne In mind, too, that In this
winter apple zone It Is' only In fhvored
spots where the winter apple can be
grown to advantage. These places are
gradually being discovered and will be
planted!n orchards that will be cul
tivated and cared for as the orange
orchards have been. The European
territory lying in' this zone produces
very few apples, and In Asia, as a
merchantable 'commodity, that fruit Is
scarcely known, as I am reliably in
formed. On this continent, east of
the Ttocky mountains, very few places
there are where the applo orchard
cuts any commercial figure. In lower
Canada, northern New York and west
ern Ohio and a fraction of Michigan
lying along the east side of Lake
Michigan, is very narrow limits In
Kansas and Colorado, not the best.

Mulntnln RoguoV Gallery.
Sheriff James Ilavllond announced
today that he would sooq establish a
rogues' gallery at the county Jail.
Sheriff Havllund's rogues' gallery Is
to hm romtvtete In every detail, as a
camera and machines with all n"oes
sfiry appliances will be purchased and
operated by the sheriff. TI1o new de
partment to (he sheriff's office Is
made necessary by the number of
criminals of bad character who have
come- Into the hands of the sheriff re
cently, says the Walla W'ulla Bulletin.
"For some time," said Sheriff Havi
land today, "I have been contemplat
ing the installation of a rogues' gal
lery. If we had something of this
sort here It would aid us In many
ways, and while Its usefulness may not
be felt for a year or two, the gallery
will grow Into a bureau of Information
that will be extremely valuable. For
some time past I have been taking the
plc'ures of convicted criminals who
were a little out of the ordinary, and
have been keeping them. Hut this en
tails the expense of paying a photog
rapher to do this work, when we
might Just as well do It ourselves."

arranged In alphabetical order, and

It Is ripe, or not at all. For this rea
son the orange crop not Infrequently
becomes a liability to the producer In
stead of an asset. The question may
be asked:
"Is there not grent danger that the
apple, like the orange, may, by over
production, become a losing proposi
tion to the grower?"
Tills Is a very pertinent question. I
do not believe It at all probable that
there will be an overproduction of
good, first-class winter apples. Of
course, It will not pay to raise poor
apples any more than It would to raise
poor oranges. The market gets the
best oranges that tho grower can pro
duce. In the future that must be the
case Willi the apple. The product Is
going to he better because the apple
grower Is learning how to guard
gainst diseased trees and to keep the
fruit tree from penis that will mar the
fruit. They are learning, In fait have
learned, that the apple orchard should
be kept clean, should be cultivated and
given every possible rare. Where the
orchard can be Irrigated the supply
of moisture Is so regulated Vliat the
trees will get as much as, and no more
moisture Ihan Is necessary to produce

la will be one of the most Interesting
places In the Garden City.
