 what is being done by some of the growers in this valley, the following 

 figures are interesting: 



Farm No. 45, contains 21 acres of apples, peaches and prunes. 

 The income in 1910 from this farm was $6,900. 



Farm No. 27, contains 20 acres in bearing: 15 acres of apples,

 prunes and 2 acres of cherries in bearing. Total income for 1910 

 from this orchard was $20,150.

 The total income from berries was $10,000 in 1910. In addition 

 $3,750 worth of young plants were sold. The net profit on this farm
