When, a short time ago, Admiral Converses health became such as to necessitate his retiring from the Important post of chief of navigation, the president himself chose Admiral Brownson as his successor. Ad- miral Brownson had already been placed on the retired list, under the provision which compels a naval officer to retire at 64, regardless of his physical and mental ability longer to serve his country, but that did not deter the president from calling upon him to fill the most important post in the navy department and the results have clearly demonstrated the wisdom of the choice. Admiral Brownson Is the youngest man of 64 the navy department has ever seen and his energy is such that some of his far younger subordinates are almost ready to retire now. But the effect of his administration is proving most beneficial to the navy, and if a few mollycoddles fall by the wayside, President Roosevelt will spend upon them few regrets. EDITORIAL NEWS BRIEFS. In picking apples In my own orchard and in orchards that I buy, I do not allow an apple picked until I am there to commence barreling same. I never let an apple touch the ground that goes into a barrel. In picking I use half bushel baskets and short sacks hung over a pickers shoulder, suys a correspondent of Farm and Home. Use long and short ladders lively, as pickers climbing In among the limbs bruise the appleB that are In sacks and spill apples out of the baskets. I pack entirely from packing tables (hat are built on a slight slant, the wide end of the .table. belug..padde to prevent the bruising of apples as they are being poured onto the table. The narrow part of the table is slatted with lath one inch apart, which allows twigs, leaves, etc., to drop through. At the mouth of the table I have an apron that is tacked to the under side of the table; this we lay over the barrel allowing the apples to run into It When the apron is full we lower it into the barrel, which pre vents the bruising of apples as they are put Into the barrel. The cost of picking and packing Covers a wide range where trees are heavily laden, the "cost being not nearly as large as when there is a light crop. Under ordinary circumstances the picking and packing can be done for 15 to 18 cents per barrel. I work four men at the packing table, one man to face, one to press, one at mouth of table to run the apples, and one to sort out culls. The packing table does away with having cull apples all over your orchard, as all the culls are thrown under the table. When the time comes In the fall to gather your cull and windfalls for making cider, It Is a very easy matter to drive from pile to pile to pick up the apples and put them in the wagon. I have my teams ready to haul my apples to cars, where they are put iu cold storage in St. Louis in 15 hours from the time they were hanging on the trees. AGRICULTURAL BITS. Give plenty of water; laying fowls require It. Applying manure to grass lands during the fall is a good thing to do, providing the manure is not put on so thickly that It smothers the plants. The manure is not a small item of profit from the poultry house. In cleaning up the poultry house the droppings should be put in barrels or boxes and kept dry. Never give fowls sulphur In damp or wet weather, and give It cautiously even In dry weather. If fed, and the fowls get wet, it Is said to cause rheumatism and weakness of the legs. The prices of farm Implements are to be boosted this season. Why not meet the advance by painting and fixing up the machine on hand now? A few gallons of paint, a new here and there, piece of woodwork will put the machine back In Berviee for two or three years. Young poultry should not be allowed to go hungry, nor should they be given more than they can eat up clean at one time. .A patch of rye near the poultry yard for the hens to run upon when the ground Is bare, Is an egg producer.
