FRUIT 4 PRIZE WINNER
The Sebastopol section has recently
come into great prominence through
the culture of GraVenstein apples, ana
the fruit from that section took hrst
premiums last year over the product or
Watsonville, which has been the famed
apple producing section of the state for
many years past. In addition TO TINS,
Sebastopol is the largest blackberry
growing section in the state, and the
latter product is sold by the ton, in
stead of by the chest or drawer, as In
some other communities.
One of the things that is bound to
make the coming fair a splendid sue
cess is the sentiment of the people
hereabouts in favor of the project.
They realize that by this means they
can bring the attention of the people
of the entire state to their products
and it will be the means of attracting
new settlers here by the hundreds.
Special fares have been granted by
the Northwestern Pacific railroad and
special trains will be run to the scene
