Abundance of Apples In Ohio Crop News
Harvey Hardy of Cheater township in Wayne county estimates his apple crop at 2000 bushels. In ColumsBoys Ohio the apple harvest is described as immense with a Wilmington farmer offering 2000 bushels of picked apples at 10 cents a bushel delivered to cars. Gen S Hurst of Chillicothe holds 10000 bushels on trees in Hoss county, not being picked due to low prices. Farmers feed apples to hogs and cider production is expected to be enormous as demand for barrels outstrips supply.
