Prineville Orchards
Loaded With Fruit
There never was so much fruit
frown in Frineville its now laden
the trees. Cherry trees in the C.
M. Elkins' orchard are ready to
break under the load. Picking has
teen going on for sometime, but
the trees are still heavily loaded.
Pear trees are loaded. Apple trees
must be thinned or the trees will
suffer. Frunes and plums must be
looked after to save damage. What
is true of the Elkins orchard is ap
plicable to every orchard in town.
The record for 1912 in the fruit
line will be a top-notcher for this
city.
