, III ; CITY PAYS TO LUSCIOUS HOMAGE. APPLE Portland and Vicinity Use 2,835,000 to 'Adam's One in Lively Day. MUTS DISTRIBUTE BOXES Day's Celebration Begins in Schools Where Juveniles liat Cores and All Wards or 2 6 Homes Re V membered Displays Huge. That little apple tree raid of Father Adam in the Garden of Eden fades Into puny insignificance in comparison with the "stunts" pulled off yesterday by His descendents in Portland in observ ance of annual Apple day Apples tempting one to astronomical laii loomed in every corner of the city there was the great display of the O.-W. R. & N. at the Yeon building:, with apple dishes in scores of forms 30,000 apples were distributed among the pupils of the public schools; 10,000 apples were donated to charitable in stitutions by the Aluts; apples were given away to customers at scores of business houses and amusement places in the city; there was the great apple' eating contest among the newsboys at feixth and Alder streets; apple menu shone in all the hotels and on the dining cars and thousands upon thou sands of men, women and children munched apples in every quarter of the city from the markets of Yamhill street and the Front-street wholesale district to the corner grocery furthes north, southeast or west in any direc tion in Portland. Great Movement Results. "The stimulation to the movement of the present apple crop that has already resulted from the Apple day movement. nas oeen tremendous, said C. A. Mai boeuf, of the North Pacific Fruit Dis trlbutors. "If the producers and dealers will continue to push along the movement that has started thus auspiciously, there will be great results accomplished in the next few weeks. There have been more apples sold in Portland by the wholesale houses this year since the beginning of the Apple day movement, than in any year before," said F. H. Page, of Page & Son, on Front street. It was estimated yesterday that 15 of the big wholesale apple houses in Portland have moved more than SO . carloads of apples since the Apple day movement was put under way, in the past week. Apples come at 650 boxes to the car, and 150 apples to the box. Amateur statisticians who may care to tinker with these data will be able to deduce that in this volume of trade were involved about 2,835,000 apples. Tbowiands of Apples Eaten. This does not take into considers tion the many thousands of apples that came into the city markets from other sources besides through the wholesale houses. And when one begins to carry out Ills estimates and figures on these also. he begins to have a glimmering reali- xHLion or wnat a piker .Father Adam was in trie Garden grabbing a lone Ben '.

Two hundred and fifty boxes of apples had been distributed among the scnoois Monday afternoon. Yesterday morning speakers from various organ izations and business houses of the city appeared at the schools and gave short talks on the importance of the apple industry in tne .Northwest, and dis tributed among the pupils leaflets con taining information on the apple bust riess. At the noon hour, as the pupils went to lunch, .the apple boxes were DroKen open and the fruit was dis tributed among them. Apple Menus Prepared. In the domestic science departments and at the women's school of trades the celebration of Apple day took the form of preparation of elaborate menus of apple dishes. The Rotary Club, at its luncheon at tne Hen son Hotel, gave attention to the day, and last night the Transportation Club gave apples to the guests at its dance at the Multnomah Hotel. The .Maker Theater, the Hibernla Sgvinn Bank and numerous other houses about me city gave away apples to their patrons all day.
