This orchard is one of the best in this section and is estimated by some to have a 90 per cent yield. As there is every evidence that an excellent price is to be secured for the apple crop this fall the grower is naturally slow to close the deal, even at this handsome figure. While the crop is not as heavy as in some previous years the additional acreage coming into bearing will likely result in a greater output than ever before.
