EXTRAORDINARY SALE OF APPLES
We have the pleasure Of putting on
record probably the best sale Of fruit ey-
err known in this county, and that, too,
OF Tennessee fruit. The specimens Of
apples exhibited at the fair BY Mr.. J.
W. Dodge, artist, raised on his farm in
Cumberland county, on the mountain,
were sold at auction on "Wednesday
night. They were sold BY the half dog
en-. and as high as five dollars and twen-
ty cents per half dozen paid. The
whole lot sold, amounting to abou, a
barrel and halt, of seven different va.
rieties, brought one hundred and eley..
en- dollars. If any Of our famous fruit
growing States in any section Of the
Union can equal this, we should like te
hear from them.-Nashriile Banner.
