and without exception they have returned
very much discouraged They agree in their
estimate of the crop, and pnt it at one third
the usual amount. What are picked and
brought in will be very poor indeed, and the
very best will be inferior to the average
apple of last year. The owner of an or.
chard in North Parma states that usually he
gathers 1900 bushels, but that this year not
more than fifteen bushels will be licked
Throughout the country this is the bearing
year, and the astonishingly heavy failure OF
the crop is due, first, to the apple-louse.
whose ravages have been widespread and
very destructive, and second. to the cold
rains. There is no section in the country
where a full crop will be picked. At the out
