The apple is the most democratic of all fruits … It breathes the free spirit of the American township and village. It has a flavor of old New England and yet a pungency as of the South and the middle West. it is mild, palatable, nourishing and promotive of good fellowship and long life.

The Ward County Independent, December 2, 1903
