A 1941 APPLE
Mr. and Mrs. Peter Deichert of.
the Blind Line, Hay Township sent
to the ;Herald Office a sample of a
1941 crop of apples. The apple
which is quite small, looks quite well
and healthy, and we are safe in say-
ing that we never saw an apple just
that old, although the history of the
apple dates back five thousand years
ago, in the Garden of Eden, but in
the natural term no one has any of
those which were consumed by Adam
and Eve. We do not know just how
Mr and Mrs. Deichert kept this ap-
ple so long, we no not think it was
kept in a' frozen condition.
