Jasper County Democrat, Volume 14, Number 52, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 4 October 1911 — Good Peach Crop in Michigan. [ARTICLE]

Good Peach Crop in Michigan.

In a business letter to The Democrat man under date of September 29, J. G. Andrus, now of near Shelby, Mich., of this year's fruit crop says: “We had lots of fall apples here but the winter apple crop is short. A full crop of peaches and plums, but cherries were not so good. We had a good crop of strawberries; we can raise the best strawberries on the globe. One man here thinks he will have 16,000 bushels of peaches, and he has contracted them at $1 per bushel. “We are having lots of rain. Got a heavy rain last night, which makes it hard on the bean harvest. Had no frost yet and tops of potatoes are still green.”
