HANDLING APPLES.
Fruit Mutt Bt Put Up For Marktt In
Attractive 8tyU.
Radical changes must come about In
the methods of grading, packing and
marketing our borne grown fruits If we
ucoeed In maintaining our present
trade In the home markets. California
fruit Is having a greater Influence on
the prices of fruit in the eastern m ar
rets every year, and this competition
Is sure to drive many eastern fruit
growers out of the business unless it is
nave tneir fruit put up in unirorm
style and In large quantities by expe
rienced packers, so that their brand
would establish a first class, reputation,
the demand for their fruit would equal
if not exceed that for the California
fruit. What we need to do is to organ
ize and do our grading, packing and
marketing in as businesslike manner
as the Callfornlana.
Our growers must learn to utilize
their inferior grades at home and mar
ket nothing but the very best and in
uniform packages. By so doing they
will obtain more money than by plac
lng the whole lot on the market Ev
ery grower should grow the best vari
eties, put them up in nice, clean, uni
form packages and place them in the
bands of dealers who understand their
business. Let every package contain
full weight The most Important mat
ter after the growing of the fruit is
the selection of the package in which
to send It to market. No fruit should
be sent in any but a neat and attrac
tive new package of the form and size

net with goods that are put up in as
honest and attractive style as thoso
that are shipped from that section.
The remedy lies in the hands of the
growers. If they desire to have their
fruit recognized as equal to California
fruit they muBt make It so attractive
in style and honest and uniform in
quality that the buyer or the consumer
will not make invidious comparisons
when be sees It by the side of the Cal
ifornia product. Quality and flavor
will have weight in determining which
fruit to use, but If our homo grown
fruits are put up In on honest manner
and undesirable varieties are kept off
from the market we can meet the com
petition and bold our home markets.
This problem of handling and market
ing fruit is not one that can be solved
by Individual effort alone. It requires
co-operation on the part of the various
fruit growers. One man may succeed
In establishing a reputation for high
grade fruit, but at the best his reputa
tion would only be local, whereas if a
large number of the leading fruit grow
ers would combine and organize and

You Can't Cure Constipation. ::H
by taking purgatives, salts, or other I
drugs that act harshly or violently,
unon the stomach or bowels.
Ask any doctor, and he will tell
you that purgatives of any character
distend the bowels and weaken the
elastic tissue.
To cure constipation, remove the
cause. The cause of constipation is
Indigestion. If your food digests prop
erly it would continue on from the
stomach through the bowels, and
would be eliminated without effort
and with regularity.
Ml-o-na Tablets cure constipation
by curing your digestion. It is not a
purgative. It Is a stomach tonic and
more it tones up, strengthens, in
vigorates, refreshes and injects new
life into the worn out muscles of the
stomach, and in a short time makes
tlie stomach hardy enough to digest
anything you eat. It Is a powerful
yet harmless stomach tonic, and Its
resistless influence on the stomach Js
astonishing.
Try Mi-o-na for constipation. One
box will cure you of Indigestion; two
boxes will relieve you of constipation;
and best of all, Ml-o-na is such an
economical remedy. A large box only
costs 50 cents, and then, If you are
not satisfied with results Jones Drug
Co., will give you your money back,
your money back.
Ml-o-na cures ail stomach disorders
whether acute or chronic, such as dys
pepsia, vomiting, over-indulgence of
the night before, sea or car-sickness,
stomach sickness of prospective moth
ers, etc.
Read this from the president of a
New York corporation:
"I have been a terrible sufferer from
dyspepsia and gastritis for two years.
The most eminent' physicians pre
scribed for me with' no effect. I have
been absolutely cured by your Mi-o-na
tablets. The first one gave me a re
lief almost incredible. Very grate
fully yours, Herbert H. Taylor. 501
