  • Between 1914 and the late 1960s, the Champion Fibre Company published an internal newsletter, called The Log, to share news about the Canton mill, the community, and its employees. After 1940, news from the entire “Champion Family,” which included mills in Hamilton, Ohio; Houston, Texas and Sandersville, Georgia, was featured in each issue.

In 1949, I grafted a s!'nall shoot from a Spitzenburg apple tree to a limb of a York hnper ial. The first year it grew about J 8 inch es, and while I was ga theTing ~pples in the fall of '49 the graft ,.vas broken off about six inches aboYe where tbe graft was placed on the limb of the old tree. In 1950 a shoot grew out of the graft, and just two and one-ha lf in cb es from the body of the graft -or eight and on e-h a lf in ches from where the graft was placed jn tb e o ld York Imperial tree, an apple grew. "A York Imp er ial?" No, a Spirz-eoburg. , 1othing strange a bout that you .say? No, it was just what I expected.
