their season and the height of
their perfection. They will be
in abundant supply through
the month of July, according
to Marketing Service of the
U.S. Dept, of Agriculture.
Favorable crop conditions
in a number of peach
producing states, particularly
Georgia, South Carolina, and
California, have boosted the
expected supply for July to a
level that can easily be
described as bountiful. USDA
forecasts peach production in
the nine Southern States to be
41 percent larger than last
year. In California, the

Freestone peach crop is
projected at 21 per cent
larger. Overall the peach
crop, excluding California
Cling peaches used mainly for
processing, is estimated to be
up 8 per cent from last year
and 13 per cent larger than
the 1973-75 average.
A crop this size should
insure good eating through
the summer. Every bite is an
invitation to more. Fresh
peaches are especially juicy
and flavorful in July. They’re
also worth their weight in
nutrients and happily low in
calories-about 50 in an
average size peach. They
blend well with other foods
and are good mixed with
salads or desserts, or used as
accompaniments. A lot of
people think they’re best for
out-of-hand eating.

peaches with good ground
color-cream color to a mellow
yellow. This is a more reliable
indicator of the maturity of ,
the fruit than the perfect ,
blush. Avoid peaches that are ,
very firm with a green ground
color. They have been picked
before maturity and will not
ripen properly. Avoid peaches
that have large flattened
bruises-this means the peach
will have large areas of
discolored flesh underneath
the bruise. Decay generally
starts as a pale tan spot; this
will expand in a circle and
gradually turn darker.
‘Tweetsie’
Sets New
Record
Tweetsie Railroad, now in
its 20th season as a theme ".
■ park at Blowing Rock, N.C.
set a new business record
Monday, July 5, surpassing
its previous best day by over ,
30 percent.
Spencer Robbins, general
manager of the travel attrac
tion, said the day easily
outdistanced Tweetsie’s pre
vious best day which was ;
attained last year. Tweetsie I
enjoyed its best season ever I
last year when approximately
300,000 persons visited the :
park. Robbins said it is too ■
early in the season to make
many comparisons to last
year, but if the trend
continues, Tweetsie should
establish a seasonal record.
"The increase in business,
can be attributed to our
expansion program, and to
the fact that more people are
traveling,’’ Robbins said.
Tweetsie just completed a
major expansion and remodel
ing program, by far the
greatest in its 20 years. The
park has been given a new
tum-of-the-century look.
Tweetsie Town has been
remodeled with the shops
redesigned to carry out the
theme, and a new craft center
is open with working crafts
men displaying their talents.
Other new additions include
The Feed ’n Seed food service
and entertainment area, and
a Deer Park and Animal
J Farm.
