They went to a Port land jobber, who bought them on the tres, and he declared that it was the fjnest fruit he had ever seen bar none.

JOIHPLE S IS OF GENTLER SEX That Is, Salem's Prototype of Historic Character; Strange Career During National Apple Week in New York, William McCullough, an actor, impersonated the unique character of "Johnny Appleseed," and, dressed in costume, retraced the territory traversed by the or iginal "Johnny," planting apple seeds along the way, just as did the original. In this "connection, it may be mentioned that we also have a seed planter in the person of Mrs. Florence Matthes, of Salem, Route Nine, who plants apples, pears, and berry seeds wherever she finds unoccupied dirt, and, from plantings in various woods pas tures in the Quinaby and Claxter neighborhoods, -there are now trees bearing fruits. The enclosed clipping from the Pacific Coast Packer tells of the work of the original Johnny Ap pleseed : Washington. D. C, Nov. 11. The Chamber of Commerce at Ft. Wayne, Ind., has instructed a committee to locate, mark and make accessible to the public the grave of Johnny Appleseed. This action on the part of the business men of Fort Wayne arouses public interest again in a man whom Sec retary Sherman once described as "one of the most striking figures this republic has ever produced." In 1847 a representative from Ohio on the floor of the House of Representatives announced the death of "an old man who has done more for the west than any other man of his era.". He al luded to John Chapman. popular ly and affectionately known as Johnny Appleseed, who planted orchards and nurseries in the wilderness? of Ohio and Indiana in advance of civilization. Meager knowledge of Johnny Appleseed rests chiefly on tradi tion and legend. He was born in Springfield, Mass., in 1775, the year the embattled farmers stood by the rude, bridge and "fired the shot heard around the world." F. G.

He loved the flowers and the birds 'and the animals, and on summer nights he would lie on hi3 back for hours gazing up into the starry heavens. Why Chapman left his native state to . wander in the western wilderness is one of the mysteries of his life. It has been a fertile but futile subject of speculation for generations among poets, nov elists and historians. A tradition says it was disappointed love which drove him from his neigh bors and friends and relatives in the Old Bay states, and this belief has the very faint support in the fact that Chapman never married. He appeared as a wanderer in the valley of the Potomac in 17D9. The following summer he was in western Pennsylvania. One day in the fall of 1800 a woman liv ing on the banks of the Ohio river near Steubenville saw a crazy looking craft floating down the stream. It consisted of two ca noes lashed together, heavily load ed with bags and piloted by a barefooted, oddly dressed man wearing a broad-brimmed hat. It -was John Chapman with a cargo of apple seeds, which he had gathered from the cider presses of Pennsylvania. He 'told the wom an he was on his way into the wil derness to plant nurseries ln ad vance of the pioneers. "My mis sion in life," he told her, "is to have apple trees ready for the set tlers' when they come." L. A. Scheeler Auto .Wrecking Co.. oldest in the Willamette val ley.

HI NOT LARGER The Growers With Good Fruit Are Entitled to Have Protection Editor Statesman: Replying to your request to give my views on how. to make the apple industry bigger and bet ter. Let lis not make it bigger, if anything, smaller, as it is much too big now. There ishowever, ample cause and reason for mak ing It better. Orchards that are not being taken care of by non resident owners, let us have these done away 'with, as they are a menace to orchards that are being cared for. For the resident who likewise does not take care of his orchard and will sell his junk fruit and demoralize the market for the man who tries to raise good fruit, let these orchards like wise be done away with, as the man who spends his money and labor trying to produce quality frirtt is entitled to a legitimate profit on the same. For Cooperative Marketing I believe in cooperative market ing. 11 a selling organization could be perfected that would have the interest of the grower at heart, this would go a long way towards making the apple indus try better, giving the owner or the grower a fair return on his in vestment, labor and. fruit, instead CHIROPRACTIC FOR DIABETES Diabetes is an effect. ' Eliml nate the CAUSE and the effect will vanish. Chiropractic is the Science- of the Cause. The Chiropractor locates the cause of your trouble with a Nenro calometer and adjusts It by re lieving the nerve pressure, which is almost sure to be present, and the effect has dis appeared. You can avoid Dia betes if you keep yonr spine in order. This seems too good to be true, but it is a proven fact. See your Chiropractor and take Adjustments according to a Neurocalometer reading.
