Such is hut a glimpse of any num
ber of orchards in the Sandhills
peach belt of North Carolina. Be
ginning with a seasons sh'pment
| of but 500 ear loads in 1 !? 2 1 . the
Sandhill peach Imluftry has grown
until probably l.80? cars will he
shipped this season. If it had not
been for the April freeze and
frosts, the yield would probably
havo been well over -.000 cars.
There are at prescul more than
000. 000 peach trees in bearing in
the Sandhills orchards.
However, those people lit the
State who have the impression
that peach growing is a veritihle
gold inine. ari much mistaken, as
over production has caused a se
vere drop in prices For while
the Sandhill growers in 1921 were
geting $:i.5o a crate and the buy
ers from the North clamored for
the fruit at that price, these pri
ces do not prevail now, largely be
cause of the competition in tieor
gla. lu 1021 Georgia produced
7.000 car loads of peaches. Now
Georgia ships at least 15.000 car
loads and produces even more. The
result is that peaches are plentiful
tod the crate that formerly sold
'or J3.60 now brings but SI .So or
lies*, the average price in the
|Saudhills section the past week be
ing but a little more than a dollar.
lAt this price the growers are ac
tually loaning money for a super
article. for the Sandhills
ketches this year are of the very
Blaest quality.
^ North Carolina peach growers
lalso get toiisldcrable competition
?from Tennessee and Arkansas.
[Where the crop ripens at almost
[the same time, though their fruit
pees to the middle western mar
kets rather than to eastern mar
Bats. as do the North Carolina anil
peorgia crops.
It costs approximately $250 in
(haul a car of peaches from the
Sandhflls to New York, and the
rgln of profit may be only half
the cost of the freight. In some
years past, however, when peaches
|werc much more scarce than now.
It was not uncommon for growers
to net $1,000 on a single car load
of peaches.
In an effort to dispose of the
fruit this year the Sandhill grow
ers are taking advantage of home
.ftiarkets wherever possible and
pore peaches than ever before are
Sting hauled to all parts of the
Wtate In motor trucks. This mar
lit is only moderately profitable,
however The total number of
cars shipped up to August 7. was .i
trifle more than 1.500. An unus
ually large number of peaches
that were too ripe for shipping
havo had to be destroyed, thus
cutting down the shipments, but
got the yield.
This is the first year that the
Crop ((reporting Service of the
State and I*. S. Department of Ag
riculture has endeavored to really
keep track of the commercial
peach crop. Last winter a survey
the pcach orchards In the State
fe made with the result thai
orchardists having more
tft 100 three. showed an average
of IG-7 percent Klberlas. 24. H per
cent Belles, #.2 per cent lliley's
8.5 per cent Blaes; with 10.8 per
cent in other varieties It was
also found that about 25 per cent
of the new trees were coming in
to bearing this year. After the
freeze. It was almost impossible to
forecast the crop, yet the Depart
m> nt of Agriculture placed an un
official estimate of approxlmately
1 .800 cars, and It seems as If this
mark will be reached In produc
tion. If not in actual shipments. At
th< time, this figure was thought
to lie entirely too high.
It should be recognized that
th" production of fruit does not
Include the shipments only, but
rather the production of all hhI
Mhle fruit, whether actually sold
!or not. /
