Thomas Dean Finds Great Scarcity OF
Fruit in Massachusetts

Thomas Dean, proprietor Of Fruit
well farm. on the back road to Fair
field, was in town Friday shipping
twelve barrels of apples to Charles
Toward, of Westboro, Mass, Mrs. j.
O'Neil. of Hudson, Mass, William
Priest and Hugh Miller of Maynard.
Mass. and Charles I[imball. of Wal
than. Mass. These shipments were
occasioned by the scarcity of apples
which Mr. and Mrs. Dean noted on Il
recent visit to the localities referred
to in Massachusetts State. People
there were paying $500 "A bushel for
windfalls and eating apples were ten
cents each. Mr.. Dean raised 500 bar
rels of apples this past season with
Ben Davis and Starks predominating
among several other varieties This
was not an extra good yield as Mr..
Dean estimates that his production
should he about twice that amount.
\ heavy wind at apple blossom time
raised serious havoc with his trees.
He has sixteen acres in orchard land
and 1900 trees. The product was sold
almost entirely this year. direct from
the orchard.
