Where apples are grown, there is cider. Gardner Saunders...hasgone into the cider business on a large scale, and hasconstructed a large press, and is nowprepared to serve all whomay desire his service in that line. His press has acapacityof 10 barrels per day, ...Cider apples were selling at 25 centsper bushel, and Saunders used four horses to do the grinding,running through sixty bushels in 50 minutes. "He has all theapples brought to him that he can press, some parties coming tenmiles or more to get cider made," and it was observed that"almost every wagon that drives through this village nowadays isloaded with either apples or cider." "Very few persons use itas a beverage, they claim, but is a fact that but little vinegarcan be found in this section." The cider millwas located atthe corner of Highway 26 and Bowers Lake Road. Calvin Crandallbought the property from [Mrs.] Gardner Saunders in 1909 andoperated the cider mill until it was demolished, along with thehouse and other buildings, by the 1911 tornado. Materials fromthe house were used in building the new home, The Poplars, whereMiss Cecile Crandall lives.
