Southern Fruit Growers
Will Send Products
Cincinnati,June 3.—Fruit grow¬
ers of the South are preparing to
enter into active competition with
the horticulturists of the North in
the matter of displaying their pio-
ducts at the Ohio Valley Exposi¬
tion, to be held in Cincinnati from
August 29 to September 24.
During the past few years the
growing of fruits that were con¬
sidered largely a Northern pro¬
duct has been taken up in the
South, so that this section now is
in a position to get into active
competition with its rivals North
of the Ohio and. Potomac rivers
for business along these lines.
Particularly in the matter of
growing apples vs the South forg¬
ing rapidly try the fore, the quanti¬
ty and quality of this fruit pro¬
duced ; ,n the South showing a de¬
cided increase yearly. It is ex¬
pected that Southern fruitgrowers
will have large exhibits of apples
at the Exposition iii connection
with the general display of South¬
ern products, for which a sepa¬
rate building will be provided.
Jn referring to the rapid increase
of shipments of Apples from the
South to Northern points during
the past few years, a well known
railroad man recently related a
story of being approached by a
business man from a certain sec¬
tion of the South with a request
for a rate on a large shipment of
apples to New York. No such
shipment having ever been made
before from this section, the rail¬
road man was curious to know
how the upple industry has grown
so suddenly. “Well responded
the man who was looking for the
rate, “The government has closed
all the stills in our section, and
we’re obliged to send our apples
to market now.”
The Gillott House, St. Simons,
has an ad in today’s Leader. Many
of our citizens visit this popular
resort during the summer months,
and they cannot do better than
stop at the Gillott House.
