Selling Their Apple Crops.

Hamburg, July 31.-J. M. Bechtel
and A. A. Simons, two of the large
orchardists of Fremont county, have
disposed of their crops of apples. No
definite estimate can be made as to
the extent of the crop from these two
orchards, but they will aggregate be-
tween 5000 and 10000 barrels. No
other orchardists here have disposed
of their crop yet. Two of the other
large growers, g. c. Farley, who owns
an orchard and leased a number of
others in the spring, and G. E. Mincer
who also has a large orchard of his
own, will probably place the larger
part of their crop in cold storage.
