Prize Peaches Twenty-eight Years Old.
Mrs. Roy Trimble, of Atchison, Kan., has a jar of peaches that took first premium at a recent fair. Nothing unusual about that, but the remarkable part of this story is the fact that the same jar of preserves took a similar premium at the Kansas State fair twenty-eight years ago, when they were exhibited by Mrs. Fred Hartman, Mrs. Trimble’s mother. The fruit is apparently just as perfect to-day as it was when preserved more than a quarter of a century ago.
