BOSHART APPLE ORCHARD
LOADED THIS YEAR
The editor and family drove to the
A. Boshart farm ten miles north of
O’Neill last Monday evening and
looked over the large apple orchard.
The trees are loaded with large, deli
cious apples of all kinds; the harvest
apples are ripe now and other var
ieties are getting ripe very rapidly.
Mr. Boshart tells us that he will
have more than 1500 bushels. The
limbs of a number of the trees are
breaking from the main stock because
of the heavy loads they are carry
ing.
Mr. Boshart says that he has ap
ples for everyone this year. He ex
pects to sell a large quantity of this
crop to parties in other counties who
are wanting to come and get the en
tire crop, unless the home people
hurry and get what they want.
The prices vary from 25c a bushel
up but none of them are very expen
sive.
Mr. Boshart would like to have
everyone wanting apples to come
and get them as soon as possible.
NEBRASKA'S GREAT
STATE FAIR
The conditions to produce a great
State Fair were never better than
this year. It is a great crop year in
Nebraska. The season has produced
grains, grasses, fruits and vegetables
that excel in quantity and quality
anything that has been produced in
many years. This condition creates
a sudden new interest in the Fair and
will induce thousands who have nev
er attended it to enjoy its sights and
pleasures this year.
It is announced from the offices of
the Fair that the reservations for
space are so great that it will be ex
tremely difficult to find room for all
the displays that are seeking admit
tance. The exhibition halls will be
full to the top with matchless dis
plays that will show on a larger and
finer scale than ever before the land
and climate resources of Nebraska.
