FREAK APPLE FOUND

Waynesboro, Pa, Nov. 9.-Mrs.
Sarah s. Newcomer, Smithburg, Md,
has grown an apple that is an un-
usual freak. The apple is of the York
Imperial variety, and one-quarter of
the apple is dark red with lines as
distinct as If drawn, while the other
three-fourths of the surface is coll
orded a bright yellow. All the red
of the apple seems to have centered
in the one-quarter and to have
drawn all the color from the other
three-fourths of the apple. 1t was
not covered to produce this effect.
