'' - HOLMES BRYSON FORTUNESJN APPLES Asheville Citizen. ; - -The marked success "of several apple growers in this immediate section again calls attention to the unlimited opportunities which await energetic orchardists in the state of North Carolina, and particularly in the western section. It is conceded In the eastern and central parts of the state such organizations nave made for great progress in the methods of handling and marketing apples, and plans are being laid for campaigns of education through the press and other printed works. It is apparent that a product of such fine merit and rare possibilities- as the apple should be given wide spread attention, and The Citizen I believes that the day is not far dis tant when apple growing along by well-informed authorities that North Carolina can grow apples ;8dentfflc intfelligent lines will compare lavorapiy vv. fce one rf chief industrie3 of m the country-apples that are conditions really better than ; many j sections :favorth B&oyfelia North Carolina can produce.

" ; A local commission merchant is authority for the statement that apples grown on the farm of Mr. Chas. A. Webb last season brought fifty cents a barrel more than the best apples that Were shipped into New York from all over the coun try. What Mr.' Webb has accom plished in "this section can be xione by other growers who employ the same scientific methods in the cul tivation of the applet "l f ; With such and end in view steps are now being taken , to bring ; the orchardists of the state together to iether for the purpose of organizing. civic organizations now bending their energies toward new develop ments will do well to take up the hitherto despised apple with new enthusiasm.

As a pastime it may furnish some exercise, .bnt It Is extremely wearing on the nerves, shoe leather-and temper. The parcel ' post is a stone wall that the small - mer chant thinks falsely he has rea son to kick. It has brought him increased jcompetition wijtji the mail order houses, according to 13s view. 7 But the parcel post stone wall has a hole in it that leads the small merchant into a fertile country where, his erstwhile competitors can only follow aft er considerable delay -and at greater expense. The "hole" is the zone system, which makes every merchant the center of a circle whose diameter is 100 miles, within- which he can de liver goods much more quickly and at a lower postal rate than 9 "any mail oraer nouse. The parcel post is no longer a theory, but a fact: and facts, like stone walls, are futile things to kick. Take' advantage of what it offers Instead. What Are Yon Going to Do About It? WHETHER or not the parcel . post has increased the com petition of the local .merchant is an open question. - The fact remains that the parcel post is here and, being here, the mer chant should turn it to his own advantage. He can do this tf he wul, though necessarily some changes in his present business arrangements' are inevitable.' Within fifty miles of his place -of business the parcel post per ' mits every merchant to deliver goods much more quickly and at a lower rate than any one in oth er sections.- His field is materi ally widened. Catalogues, leaf lets. and price lists of his stand ard goods, specified newspaper and circular advertising may now be used to advantage . by the small merchant where afore time he was handicapped by the costs of delivery and the limita tions of his field. - ' INSTEAD OF BEIJJG AN OBSTACLE.
