The Fruit Crop Very Short.
State Horticulturist W. N. Ilutt
has submitted his estimate of the
fruit crop of North Carolina in a
report to the State Board of Agri
culture. The report is based up
on replies to about 1,500 circular
letters, which were mailed to
fruit growers in all parts of the
State.
Taking the State as a whole the
apple crop appears to be only
about 33 per cent. There were
replies from CO counties which
grow apples. In none of the well
known apple growing counties is
more than a 50 per cent, crop re
ported. The best crops are re
ported in Alexander, Wilkes,
Surry, Haywood, Buncombe,
Henderson and Yancey. Tho
shortage of the crop is due to the
very cold weather in the spring,
followed immediately afterward
by hot dry weather.
The pcoplo may find some con
solation, howevor, in the fact
that the blackberry and persim
mon crops are reported proiper
ous. There is only about an 8
per cent, crop of pears, with
peaches estimated about 15 per
cent. Tho grape crop is reported •
in fine shape and about an 80 per
cent, crop may bo expected.
In tho strawberry section Iho
cold weather of tho spring, fol
lowed by a drought and hot weath
or, cut tho crop short. Ilowovor,
very satisfactory prices were
realized for the berries gathered.
The dewberry crop, now assum
ing commercial proportions in
some of the eastern counties, is
reporMQ in good condition, pick
ing of the berries has just begnn.
Sampson connty's huckleberries
also see numbered among tho
more promising crops.
The cereal crops, such as corn,
wheat, oats, etc., are reported in
a fine condition in this State, the
dry weather in some places hold
ing the crop back a little late.
Tho tobacco crop will likely be
short, while the cotton acreage is
somewhat increased.

says the Monroe Enquirer, "gives

ly fall in the class ot "undesir

least be commended for listing his
