MINNESOTA AS A FRUIT
STATE.

The great success of fruit in Mime.
sofa the past season, has attracted a
great deal of attention and opened
the eyes of great many people outside
of our borders to the many advantages
of which fruit raising is not the least.
And the success of the fruit crop last
summer, is simply causing an extra
endeavor to- enlarge our capacity in
that line. The Albert ,><Eea Tribune
commenting upon this feature of our
state, says:
1T might be hard to prove to all the
world that Minnesota has fewer disad-
vantages than any other state in the
Union, nevertheless it is true and it
takes no argument to convince the
people who hive here of the fact
Almost the only drawback of the uast
has been a dearth of fruit growing
While it has been easy-to-sffip it in and
thus procure supply, it has>pot~unttiil
the last few years been a product Of
the soil. All this is changing, and in
the future Minnesota bids fair to make
remarkable showing as fruit grow
ing state. There has been no trouble
in finding varieties of early summer and
fall apples that would thrive in our
climate This year Minnesota and
Iowa have led in these varieties and one
sees many fine orchards in northern
Iowa andsoutlern Minnesota. Owing
to the fact that the later varieties or
winter apples take longer to mature

and the tree has to retain the sap later
in the season and our changes are so
sudden thus far there has been no
variety that has given satisfaction as a
late keeper. Much interest has been
aroused, and at its last meeting the
State Horticultural society offered a
prize of one thousand do lars for a
northern grown apple that would adapt
itself to Minnesota and produce hardy
late variety of winter fruit This offer
has set those who are interested to
work and no doubt very soon as a
result of horticultural effort Minnesota
will take her place among the fruit
growing states
