their utmost to cinch the buyer of supplies by
"cornering" the available offering of freshly

are boosting prices on every side to aid their

wheat sown later on ground not so well culti

outcome of this crop about normal. Good

growers. It Is proriovied to eliminate the
fancy and choice grades as such and pack
euly two grades extra fancy and a family
grade, the latter to Include all of the apples
now packed in the fancy and choloe grades.
It Is stated by many of tbe growers that It
la a very difficult thin; to distinguish be
tween the fancy snd choice grades. Tbe line
of demarkstion between these two grades is
so finely drawn that it requires an expert tn
do tlie sorting of these two grades preliminary
to packing, and that after the greatest care
hns been exercised, a lary number of fancy
apples will be found In tbe choice pack and
vice versa.
It Is contended by those who favor tbe two
grade system that tlm ap;iles can be packed
and handled for a much less expense. The
apples of the Hood Hirer valley last season
ran approximately 25 per cent extra fancy;

North Yakima, Wash., July 21. The
peach and pear crops in Yakima val
ley will come into market fully two
weeks late this year, Is the estimate
made at this time by prominent grow
ers. It is thought that Bartlett pears
will not be ready to move before the
second week of August and Klberta
peaches not before the first of Sep
tember. The Bartlett movement be
gan July 29 last year and July 24 in
the season of 1915. The arerage time
for the opening of the shipping pea
son for Elbertas is August 20. The
tonnage of bo.h crops will be fully
equal to early estimates, which means
the movement of about 1500 cars of
pears and 1200 cars of peaches.

Officials of Old Xrime
They were some of the officials of
tho old regime, their velvet suits of
other days of gorgeousness contrast
ing strangely with disordered collars,
loose neckties and facea trembling
with fear. They were the typical
weaklings of tbe old governmental
aristocracy.
None of Kerensky's troops killed
townspeople or agitators In the street
fighting.
Trio cabinet, as now constituted.
consists of six Socialists and three
members of other liberal 'parties, but
over all the workmen's and soldiers'
congress is completely dominant.

A number of women marched with
the Kronstadt sailors In some of the
earlier clashes on ths streets. In com

ran for shelter of nearby houses.
Krom these observation spots one
could see women among the parad

bile beside a machine gun.
Immediately before the rioting one
of the anti-government speakers ar
rested in the Nevsky Prospekt proved
to be a German officer and a pris
oner of war.
