Louisville Man Has a Real
Grape Fruit Tree in Bearing
Whon a Journn 1 ropresentat i ve
. 1 1'Iilh.e nuiei ill i.uuih
.yUe Sun'"- our interest was arous-
ed in a grape fruit tree with several
very delicious looking grape fruit
' hanging from its limbs. In talking

mum mi . uruKf one i i u i me curi
osity, we were informed that ha rais
ed it from a seed planted some seven
' TS ago. It IS now allOUt SIX let t
'n height and the lower limbs have
oeeii irimmeu away, which is qui me
custom where these trees grow mtur
ally, as these lower limbs are the
principal bearing ones.
Contrary to gt neral belief
grap;
fruit do not continue to ripen if left
years if not plucked before. The sev
eral on Mr. Drakes tree have develop
ed from buds of a year ago and at
tained their full size early last fall.
At the time of the flood in Louisville
last September water entered the
hotel lobby to a depth of several feet
and the large pail in which the tree
is grown was tipped over, but none
of the fruit dislodged from their
branches.
The tree is indeed a curiosity and
although oranges, lemons and other
such fruits are often grown success
fully indoors in this part of the
country this is the first time we had
ever heard of or seen a grape fruit
tree in bearing.
One of the Omaha newspapers is
going to send its photographer down
in the near future to take a picture
of Mr. Drakes home grown grape
fruit tree.

The Westinchouse comnanv lit
credited with having spent the time '
and money necessary to make alter
