Stories are coming east of the large
profits made by fruit growers in east
Urn Washington state In the Wenat-
.hee valley the prosperous condition OF
orcharding has increased land values
to as high as $3.50 per acre for the raw
land with wafer rights. Orchards Ia
full bearing range all the way from
$500 TO $1,000 per acre. The boom is
the result of very favorable season,
when good apples have been selling at
81 box at shipping stations One or
two unfayorable seasons might change
the situation. The region is described
as more like great orchard village
than an ordinary farming section, the
farms being small and the houses close
togethty, with telephones, electric lights
anu osaer Improvements common. The
orchard work is carried on in a very
thorough manner, with the land kept
thoroughly cultivated and cleaned. The
trees have a long growing season and
apples fruit at five years from setting.
The apples produced here are of very
fine appearanoe and have peculiar,
waxy skin. which finds favor with the
buyers The actual flavor is not equal
to the best app:es produced In the east.
but the Washington apples are careful
ly graded and packed and sell close to
the tcD of the market prices.
