Unless Mother Nature and the
Weather Man get together be
tween now and the twentieth,
which falls on Thursday of next
week, and hatch up some intrigue
to forestall the natural course of
things as they now appear, the
apple orchards of Haywood Coun
ty will offer one of the most beau
tiful pictures in years.
Throughout the county orchard
ists say that the trees have one
of the fullest bud in "years and
give promise of an extremely
heavy bloom.
Even though the weather has
been chilly at intervals between
the balmy spring days of the past
few weeks, no damage worth re
cording has been noted to date,
and the apple blossoms in all their
fragrant pink and white loveli
ness are scheduled to decorate the
landscape next week.
