Sandhills Sending Record Peach Crop to Market, June 23, 1922

To Market Record Peach Crop

Sanford—Since the Sandhills Peach crop has begun to move it is now estimated that the crop will be almost double what it was last year. It is now believed that it will be over 1,100 cars. It is conservatively estimated that the total amount of money to be received from the crop will be upward of $1,500,000 should prices obtain during the season. Several cars of peaches from the Sandhills region were shipped over the Seaboard last week. This was the early variety and were not as good as the later peaches will be.
