Report of B. M. Cope, Indian Springs. 



Apples, peaches, pears, prunes, plums, and all kinds of cherries grow 

 well as high as Indian Diggings, which is at an elevation of three thousand 

 three hundred feet, and are of the finest flavor, and free from moths and 

 worms. This vicinity is twenty-five miles from a railroad, and people 

 plant only for their own use. A few are starting in to make it a business. 

 If any one was here at this time, September eighth, it would astonish him 

 to see apple, pear, and plum trees loaded with the largest and juiciest -of 

 fruits, and t<ysee grapevines loaded with large bunches.
