PtepU Are Beginning to Show
Proper Appreciation and Crop
Should Be Increased.
It
Americans arc corning to treat ap-
ples more n h food and less aa a
between-meals aupertlulty than tliey
used to do. yet when the north wlrid
blows and the uredde glows they
can't refrain from paying especial at
tention to w qiii'Htlon whether there
Is u plenty of them. Thb year the
farm reportn tells us then Js not.
There are In . the whole courftry.
1.01U.000. barrels fewer than there
were In lulS. and almost the mime
shortage from the crop of llUfl.
though we are considerably bettec off
than we were 'In 11)17. That Is we
have 24.000.000 barrels this year.
That's about one for each family In
the country and each family not.each
member thereof might. If theyjwere
evenly distributed have one apple a-
day. Tho true lover of applea will
never sdralt this to be sufficient and
he should not.
R ta not eapedslly cheering to
learn that roe coaBtry's crop' of ap-
plea doe Bot tend to Increase. Our
record crop was In 1012 but we had
almost aa many In ISm and the crop
In 1806 was greater than that In
either of the past four years. But
the apel to America's fruit the moat
satisfactory the moat dependable the
mejH healthful fruit In the worid-
