All the same, you’ve been very patient and kind.” ■■Will you give me a spray of your flowers as a reward—a Illy of the val ley? Thanks. Most typical and sweet. I swear on this blossom to have It out with Lord Steeplechase.” Frank’s sister has been three weeks at home, and the day is a mellow day In June. “I hope you did not really say all that to your partner, my dear,” said auntie, "and 1 am thankful you did not meet Lord Steeplechase.” A maid crosses the lawu with a let ter and hands It to her. • "From Frank!” She opens and reads: D e a r Old G irl—You w ill be so Jolly g la d to h e a r som e good new s a t la s t of y o u r n e’er-do-w ell.

How’s the ma ter? Did you get my letter? This Is my best friend aud also the friend of Lord Steeplechase.” She looked deprecntlngly at the friend while giving her hand. “I hope you have forgotten all I said to you that night. I was unpardon- ably severe, It seems, on a third per son. He lias beeu shockingly treated— at least If he knew—but unless yon told him—did you?” ”1 always keep my own secrets.” ’’But that was hardly your own.” “I made it a personal matter.” “I am deeply obliged to you.

Lord Steeplechase”— Ills mother shrieks: "That monster! De not name him! Only for him my son would hold nil honored position.” Frank's sister put her hand lightly on her mother's lips. "Mother, there Is a stranger present. Take her aside and talk to her, Frank, and make her understand." “And leave you to entertain Lord Steeplechase? Excellent! Ta-ta! I'm off.

H ave You Planted Stark D elicious? for “ The Apple Stark D elicious” a booklet giving its full history and the opinions of tiu; w orki’s reatest horticulturists and successful drehardists. t will convince yo u . Last year we sold 1,250,000 trees of Delicious alone and could have sold another i m illion had we had them . Planters now-a-days d o not buy a variety at that rate unless th ere’s a rea son. A nd there is one—send for the booklet. Early Elberta is all right. Two trees bore fine, yel low. spicy fruit and although not a full crop, it was more than wna produced by 50 Elberta trees in the same orchard. Ripened with Carman.—E. H. Riehl, (III. Experiment Station) Pres. Alton Horticultural Society, Madison Co., III. « f Stark E arly E lberta is worthy of y o u r utm ost confidence—plunt il l a t e l y and reap the harvest of profits which will surely follow. T h e true S tark E arly E lberta can bo had on ly of us. We purchased the exclusive propagating right from th e originator, Dr. Sum ner G leason. Stark King D avid A pple You shbuld plant it along with Delicious—plant it largely—y o u ’ll never regret it. It’s a m oney m ak er, and a big on e. It has highest quality, is a long keeper, very hardy, and has beautiful color. Sells at highest prices. M any planters think it better than Delicious. O ther \Vestern V arieties T he success of an orchard is dependent upon the judgm ent displayed in the selection of varieties — the profit paying kind. A nd profit in fruit growing means quality. Q uality and color are the two things that the great fruit consum ing public pay their m oney for. T h a t’s certain—you can ’} deny it. Increase your orchard profits—d o it by planting the splendid tested special sorts of Stark T rees. Begin now—d o n ’t wnit until next season. P lan t now and be that m uch n earer a big profit paying cro p than you would be by waiting 6 m onths or a year. H ere is a brief list of varieties highly adapted to western conditions—the kind that will m ake a m odel orchard which will yield profitable returns. “ In my opinion King David will surpass Delicious acouimt-rci.il apple. It is fine as silk.’*—Rev. T. H. Atkinson, Entiat, Washington. Was in Mr. Olds* orchard last week. His King David 3-yr. old trees will bear quite a lot of fruit this year. 1 consider them fur ahead of Jonathan—the fruit is larger, haa better color and flavor and is a better keeper. —D. J. Hayden, Chelan Co., Washington. King David stood 25 degrees below zero last winter without injury while Ben Davis sufferv: severely.— K. G. McDougall, Chelan Co., Washangu.P. King David, a very rich red, makes a most beautiful apple. Hangs on the tree well, equal to Ben Davis and just as productive; quality is equal to Spitzenburg; picked three boxes from one scion grafted on Hen Davis. It is the.finest apple you have lor this part >| the country; the most beautiful apple grown; can’t help but sell anywhere, and ahead of all others. Have heard nothing but King David all this season. Have had to date fifty-two parties at my place to see these apples.—F. Dando, Chelan Co., Washington. Include King David in your next order. Y o u ’ll never regret it and will want m ore when you sec its magnificent fruit. Stark Early Elherta Peach If not m ake it the first and biggest item on your next o rder—y o u ’ll never regret it. Delicious is the most w onderful ap p le known to horticulture for quality, keeping qualities and selling value. T his year at the sale of the W enatchee Valley F ru it Grow ers’ Ass’n (W ashington) Delicious brought $3.00 per b o x f. o. b. there (thepresent m arket value is $ 4 .0 0 ), w hile Spitzenburg brought only $2.50, W inesap $2.25, Jonathan $1.90, Black Ben $1.75, (now $2.00 —selling with Jo n a th a n ), Baldwin $1.15, Ben Davis $1.40, G an o $ 1 .5 0 , etc. O n e of the good things you can not afford to overlook. It is winning golden opinions from experienced fruit men the country over. Better quality than E lberta and ripens ten days to two weeks earlier, reaching the markets when all other good peaches are scarce and thus com m anding high prices. A great shipping poach, surpassing E lberta. L u th e r B u rb a o k , Wizard of Horticulture, says: “ De licious is a gem, the finest apple in all the world. It is the best in quality of any apple 1 have so far tested’’— and Luther Burbank knows. Delicious Brings $2,000 Per Acre 100 seven year old Stark Delicious apple trees in the Bsiley Orchard, Chelan Co., Washington, earned $2,000 for their owner last year and when pricca were low—or an average of $20 per tree tor one season’s crop. Delicious is today m aking more profits—big profits, for the long-headed, far-sighted orebardists who have planted it than any other variety.

In Early Elberta one has all of the good qualities of Elberta, and the additional feature of early ripening. When this is taken into consideration, and when it is planted along with the original Elberta, much of the strain r.nd con gestion which conies with peach harvest will be greatly reduced. The shipping season will be lengthened. — E. H. Favor, Ass’t Horticulturist, Davis Co., Utah. Having tested its shipping and keeping qualities thoroughly, without doubt it is the most valuable ad dition to the commercial peach list introduced in recent years; an excellent shipper and as a keeper it bus no rival.—L. Marsh, H o«. Inspector, Davis Co., Utah. J. H. Hale (The Peach King) wrote me that he took some Early Elherta home from Oeorgia and that they kept nearly twice as long as Elberta.—Dr. Sumner Gleason (Originator of Stark Early Elberta) Davia Co..

A home for veteran ball players who fall victims to consumption to be es tablished In Colorado nnd maintained by the club owners, or. rather, by tho patrons of two major nnd two minor leagues. Is the plan fnthered by Bill Everett, the former Chicago National leneiie stnr. whose home Is In Denver. He hopes to see It put In effect within a short time. As outlined by the veteran, only a decidedly moderate sum of money would purchase n comfortable home in Denver or Its vicinity, nnd a small an nual Income would maintain It, pro viding n superintendent, n nurse when necessary nnd the services of a physi cian. The necessary money Everett suggests raising by setting aside for n brief period 1 per cent of Ihe gate receipts of all games played In the Na tional nnd Americnn leagues nnd the American association nnd Ihe Eastern league , Admission to the proposed horns would In that case be restricted to players who brought credentials from proper officials establishing Ole fact that they bad played for nt least one season In one of Ilie’mnjor leagues or In H ip minor leagues named.
