by Gust Gerg from his farm seve1
miles northwest of Washburn.

apples but did not stop their
growth. Mr.. Berg picked a
bushel of apples from one tree,
othe~s did not yield as well. He
thinks the trees have not been
protected from the winds as they
should be or from the snow i'm
winter as at times there were at
least ten feet of snow piled up
around them. The apples are Pat
ent Greetings and Wealthies.
One apple brought in measured
