The DEAD PEACH.-The indications are
that the peach in the three last days OF
December OF the past winter from the un.
precedented low temperature received the
most damaging blow that it has ever re-.
ceived in the history of its cultivation.
, The worst that it has ever received hereto
, fere has hPen the death of the blossoms or
young fruit after blossoming-the crop foi
that year-hut the cold OF this winter has
gone further and largely, we will not say
universally, killed the trees also, or so
, nearly that they will not he of any future
. profit This applies to the old or fruit
/ bearing trees. The young and nursery
s trees by proper trimm ny may soon recover
4 from the injury. The mature wood ia dis
colored and diseased, and though it may to
a certain extent gives evidence of life il
}, will be sickly and without vital force
}. Some orchards are doubtless hurt worse
r. than others and this is especially so with
p varieties. the Hale being found to be almWs
k universally damaged. To the young or
V chards only for the next several years car
!. there he any certainty Sf profit, and the
probability is that most Of the orchard
that have been bearing for several year
il will have to be pulled out. The heat o
70 the summer will develop whore and I,

R. loss the Peninsula has sustained. For
n. tunately no other fruit except the black
st berry and blackcap raspberry has been in
oil jured SO tar as known, and these onl
down to the snow line, but too near tn
ground for there to be more than a yer
IN small crop this year.
