and other Stark Trees averaged him $8,000.00 A Year for 6 Years 
—MORE CASH MONEY THAN HE RECEIVED FROM ALL 
CROPS FROM 670 ACRES of gocd Illinois farm land he owns. 
In 6 years he sold $48,000.00 worth of apples from STARK

this 30 acre orchard of Stark Trees’’—says Mr. Anderson.

wholesale auction Jos. Sicker (leading N. 
Y. apple buyer) paid $2,947.50 for one 
earload of Golden Delicious (only 736
