Cucumbers and t Beans Buffered
and Blooms on Berry Plants
Killed.
Wilmington Star,- R-With frost
throughout the entire eastern part of
the State yesterday mornings and at
some point the temperature almost
down to freezing, the strawberry crop
received another aet-back and cucurn;
ters, beans and other early truck crops
were considerably damaged. Frost was
predicted again for last night.
While all blooms 'on the strawberry
pi h e were killed by the frost thedam
a e was comparatively slight as -the
jerrii b were not injured and blooms put
mis daily. The greatest damage being
done berries by the cold is in prevent
i g7them from ripening. In some lo
calities growers were prepared for all
emergency and the plants were covered
With pine straw and where this was
done not een the blooms were killed.
The weather report showed that frost
was heavy at Wilmington, New Bern,
and W ldon and light at some of the in
terior points where as a usual thing it
is much colder than in the eastern por
tion of the Stale. At Wilmington the
temperature was 38 and at Lumberton
33, while New Bern showed 34. Frost
is not an unusual occurrence the latter
part of April, but thisis the first
Spring in several years when the cold
has heen sufficient to damage crops. In
1907 very cold weather - prevailcJ at
Easier and the strawberry crop was cut
very thort number of rara being only
about 1,000.
Continued cool weather is having a
erioua effect on berry shipments and it
U feared if it con inues many claj s lorn
er the crop will be cut short. Indicat '
ions pointed to the shipment of about
16 cars from the entire berry belt yet
terday und one year ago from 80 to 90
cars per day were being shipper?-
