Iowa Apple Trees Respond Well
Council Bluffs October 18 That Iowa apple trees respond to modern scientific horticulture has been shown by the harvest from the Royer farm experiment orchard east of Council Bluffs. The 1918 crop, harvested after a season hard on soil, totals over 2,000 boxes of apples. Professors Lorenz Greene and T J Maney report half the yield grades to Hood River standards and will bring fancy prices in markets. The rest, mainly windstorm injuries, yields top market prices overall, likely covering station expenses.
