State highway network opens southern Indiana fruit markets
Southern Indiana fruit raisers can now market crops through Indianapolis wholesale centers thanks to improved roads. Entomologist Frank Wallace notes southern Indiana formerly lacked an outlet due to road conditions, with some farmers offering large sums for connecting routes. Improved highways connect orchards to railroad centers and midwest markets, reducing losses from inaccessibility and expanding distribution nationwide.
