MODEL ORCHARD PRODUCES BIG
FRUIT

w. w. Bakers model orchard To-
Gated at Gravity bore an unusually
large crop of apples this fall. The
orchard was under the supervision
of w. H. Bullock, who is in the en-
ploy of the State horticultural de-
partment. 1t was sprayed three
times during the season and al
though small the orchard produced
400 bushels of large apples.
One of the apples, Spy, weighed
IA ounces and measured 1914 in
ches in circumference A King ap-
pie measured 12h inches around
and tipped the scales at 15 ounces.
There were larger apples than the
above mentioned specimens. but Mr.
Baker did not have them at his home
where he measured these.
The orchard has north exposure
There were very few quarly or
wormy apples, which Is attributed to
often spraying. One thing notice
able about the apple,r crop is the
large number of bushels raised, be-
ing larger than former years, not
withstanding the exceedingly poor
crop in Wayne county
Mr. Baker says the trouble with
the average farmer of to-day is thai
he wants to raise apples and grass
on the same piece of ground. He
cannot successfully do both. He
must either raise apples or grass, but
not both. tslill i0
The chief varieties raised in the
model orchard are Kings, Baldwins
Spys and Greetings.
