HE recent meeting of the Apple Growers Congress in St. Louis illustrates the fact that the-seat, of apple growing has shifted of late years in the Mississippi valley. Formerly the bulk of the apples produced in he United States was grown east of Ohio, in a belt ranging from Northern Virginia to Vermont. New York and Pennsylvania were pre-eminently the apple growing States, but apple growing crept along the Great Lakes and Michigan became a great producer of the frait. With the settlement of Oregon and. Washington, splendid territory for growing apples was opened up. But within the past thirty years apple growing has _ trended to the Southwest from the Great Lakes, and its greatest seat is now in the territory of which St. Louis is the metropolis — Southern Illinois, Southern Iowa, Missouri, Eastern Kansas and Northern Arkansas. The western plateau of the Ozark mountaius is. said to produce: the finest apples now sent to Eastern markets. The largest apple orchards in the world are in Southwest Missouri and Eastern Kansas, and ‘tree-planting is going on rapidly. Buyers from all parts of the country and Europe swarm into that region in the late summer and early fall contracting for the crop in bulk. Nothwithstanding the enormous increase in orchard acreage, the demand for first-class apples exceeds the supply.Only recently it has been discovered that California is one of the finest apple-growing countries on tlie globe. The upper foothill region from Kern county to the Oregon line, produces apples that for size, color, flavor and keeping qualities are unsurpassed. Im the valleys of the Coast Range splendid apples'are grown. The Pajaro Valley, in Monterey county, is justly celebrated for its Belle Fleurs, while the eS —— a TAT UNS LOT A Daily Record of the é ir GD DROLEC Champion ining Com provements. The Company Incorporated and Stock to be Sold. . Fred Zeitler, one of the Directors of the Champion Mining Company; and B. N. Shoecraft, Secretary of the Company, arrived here this morning from San Francisco on business, The Champion Mining Company has been incorporated with 125,000 sheres, ofa par value of $5 each, and the compeny owns the Champion, Merrifield, Prov= dence, Wyoming, Nevada City and Spatich mines. Every one of these properties has yielded a large amount of bullion and paid dividends, It is contemplated to sell 100,000 shares, and retain 25,000 shares in the treasury. The Champion. company has been disbursing in Nevada Oity for many years in the neighborhood of $20,000 every month for labor, supplies, etc., and it is to the interest of the business men to take a portion of, the stock, and help along the contemplated improvements. Messrs, Zeitler and Shoecraft are in this city for the purpose-of selling stock and already several business men have subscribed. An entire new plant is to be placed on the Merrifield, similar to the one on the Empire at Grass Valley, and the works will then be one of the best equipped in the State. The incline shaft is to be enlarged so that it will be sixteen feet in the clear and then work can be carried on more expeditiously. New hoisting works will be erected on the Nevada City mine and modern machinery put in place, and this mine which produced so well northern coast counties produce truit of the first quality. Good apples are also grown in the Sacramento Valley. Formerly California imported apples from Oregon and Utah, but now this State is shipping apples to the East. The apple growing industry is rapidly expanding and developing, and before many years elapse, apples will be among the staple products of California. It is a surprising fact that excellent winter-keeping apples are grown in the foothills of Sacramento, Placer, El Dorado, Nevada and Butte counties, alongside navel Oranges of fine quality. The ideal fruit country is found when the apple and cherry will reach perfection side by side with*the orange, the lemon and the apricot. As an apple-growing section, there is not another county in the State that cam discount Nevada county for the growing to perfection of this fruit. There is a great future awaiting the fruit-growers of Nevada County, and the young man who will invest his time and money in the raising of apples, prunes and other staple fruits will ina few years realize big dividends on the money expended, for the time is soon coming when there will be a great demand for our fruit, and superior facilities will be given for shipping it to all parts of the world. in former years, will again yield up tion and reduction: plant will be pat’ up, and it will be equipped with the latest and most approved epplisnces; so that the percentage of gold lost will be very small. These contemplated improvements will not be ‘started until spring, but the machinery and material will be ordered at once, so that when the weather is settled there will be no delay. Elks Memorial.
