Tho fruits are of tho first order,
with many kinds of choice var
itics. The watermelons, musk
melons, pears, plums, etc, aro
capable of making one's mouth
water, but if these should not sat
isfy you they could hand you a
lemon (garden lemon) raised on
their own grounds. If thoro was
to bo a high board fence placed
around tho Drewsey country thov
would not starve by any means.
