Sent His Father Five Nice Apples From the Spokane Show.

A. G. W. Farmer today received an express package from Spokane, Wash., and upon opening it found that it contained five apples sent him from the big apple show at Spokane, Wash. His son, Henry P. Farmer, had sent them. Henry resides at Twin Falls, Idaho, and travels for the farmers’ union, as an inspector, seller and shipper of hay. Last week he was in Spokane and attended.the apple show, which he pronounced as a marvelous affair. The apples he sent were purchased at the fair and were beauties. Mr. Farmer brought one to the Republican office which was grown in the Hood river valley in Oregon. The apple show in Chicago will be held at the first regiment armory from Nov. 28th to Dec. sth, and R, A. Hopkins, a former Rensselaer boy,' will be in charge of the exhibit from Spokane. Rensselaer people would be benefited and instructed by a visit to the apple show.
