Hanson Brothers Growers See Big Apple Revenue
An orchard of about nine acres holds exactly 100 top grafted apple trees yielding over $50 per tree this season. The company shipped 69 cars of winter apples and one car of summer fruit last year, paying growers $225,000, with expectations of at least 25 percent more winter apples this year. George W. Dexter chaired a growers meeting, announcing cooperative benefits. Elected branch directors include Lee Alloway, J. H. Sawers, and C. A. Heath with Alloway as chairman and C. H. Gerking as secretary.
