Lawrence counties are tne best oual
ity fruit" producing counties In the state if not in the United States, yet few men have attempted to develop this resource, while J. A. Burton, f Lawrence, and Cravens and Lewis Giddings of Jennings county produce some of the finest apples and receive premium prices for their frvrtt. which is yielding them results not produced by any other crop per acre. It is said that a bumper crop" of appless can be raised once in six years and that any year enough can be raised to more than pay the cost of production. Small fruits and vegetables grow in very profitable quantities in this county. Often $100 to $125 per acre profit can be had from strawberries, raspberriej.;, cherries, potatoes, cabbage and tomatoes. Yet these are not extensively raised. More fruit of the different varieties were raised in the year 1814 in Jennings County than in any proportionate year since. Whtt has caused this decrease in fruU raising? It can not be there is iioi market or justifiable price, '1-hen it must fes lack of interest in the. Industry, While it is true, for a. nnmber ct years after 1S74. fruit-
was very cheap and plentiful and for thlji reason the orchards were neglected and the trees allowed ta become diseased and allowed to stand in the orchards until we haw to fight disease and germs, making it necessary to spray and. fertilize. The soil o? his county is fertile in the mafe aq will produce good crops of ha.)", wheat, corn and oats, many hogs, cattle and sheep are raised and fattened, fine breeds of horses, both draft and fast, in fact, as good Quality of all kinds of live stock is raised in the county, if not as good as any place in the Ohio and Mississippi vr ley. Jennings County in the niRsrt has large farms, many containing 160 t 400 acre.i, this means that the count?, is not as thickly populated as rtanv Dther counties, and the land is not as well cultivated. The thing most needed in the way of agriculture is more farmers and smaller farms, Ie?r land sharks and grafters as well :v land traders and speculators. The land, the aualitv of soil arrl
producing value considered, is the
tueaTsi ianu m tne state and sfds well to induce good thrifty far wars in the counties where land is Mmost oKt of reach of the ordinary iaan to buv to come to old Jennings and purchase and become a producer. Jennings County is as healthy a? any county m the state and this can be s-Aiii or live stock as well as, tfce human race. When the two state highways are built connecting this eounty with other counties of we-alih and trade centers, and more attention nirl tn
school houses, churches, reads and the ioii better cared for, old Jennings will make her influence feit in Indiana. Esriy Settlement. The territory composed in Jennings County belongs to what is known as the "Grouseland Purchase." The Indians left this purchase much earlier than the t;.-rr!tor:es embraced in the surround'.-e counties. The earliest perraasesi settler cf Urn county was Jcka yawtec (Gia caa ho conates the ost .uulu. seat site in the state), who came from ;;l0a -n"cvember. 1S13.
