The peach Cran.

The New York Times, in an article on the
peach crop IN Maryland and Delaware, based
ON past seasons, comes TO the conclusion that
not less than 3,25O,OO0 baskets will be grown
on the peninsula this year for the market. 1t
predicts that peaches Will be very cheap In the
market, as "a "crop OF 100000 of baskets
Will permit only very tine peaches TO sell for
more than 81 per basket, and cause fair
quality TO sell as low as 30 cents, at which
price the grower scarcely gets any return
whatever" The Chestertown Md Transcript
says: "Here In Kent County, where more
peaches are grown than upon any other equal
area In tho whole world, there VIII be a crop
unsurpassed by any previous crop in the
history OF peach culture, with the exception,
perhaps, OF the crop OF 1875. Many growers
believe the yield OF this season Will be fully
equal 70 the yield OF that year. The peach
Yield this year Is general"

The dwelling OF Mrs. Virginia Maccubbin,
near Mitchellsyille postofIlce, Prince Georges

Wednesday morning, shortly after breakfast
time. The fire is supposed TO have been caused
by sparks from a chimney igniting the shingle
roof. The dwelling, which was large and

ren family, burned very rapidly, and very
little OF the furniture was saved. Some neigh
bors came TO give whatever help could be
afforded, but 1t was impossible 10 save the
house. There was no insurance, and II would
require $4,000 TO rebuild the dwelling In its
former NtNle.
