From the Lawrence Daily World for Aug. 10, 1906: “Since the state depository law went into effect, the banks in which the state has placed public funds have paid the state $7,783.91 in interest. The law went into effect in September of 1905. The goal is for the interest to top $10,000 a year. : The apple harvest has begun around Lawrence and promises to surpass all expectations both in the number and quality. Apples are purchased by the barrel and bring from 60 to 80 cents according to the quality and condition. :Judge Riling is rubbing it in on the jointists here.
