Arizona weekly journal-miner., 1901-02-27


 A Journal Miner man had the pleasure of sampling a box of oranges received yesterday by w. E. Fernwalt, from his wife who is visiting with her brother, W. H. Brown near Orange, California. The oranges were from Mir. Browns orchard which is one of the best in that section, and they were simply delicious. There was a cluster of about half dozen fully de- veloped lemons, the limb containing them also having a number of par tially developed lemons and lemon blossoms, making quite pretty and novel effect. Quite a number of ''Billy's" friends enjoyed the treat of helping dispose of this delicious fruit and all pronounced it splendid.
