Centennial Exposition On This Day In Oregon

Oregon's fruit display at the 1876 Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia drew much attention. In it's November 9th edition, The New York Tribune praised, "Oregon displays 12 varieties of apples, 13 of plums and prunes, and 13 of pears. The quality is excellent. Oregon is unexcelled, even by California, for raising good fruit, and its apples are superior."
