The Apples.
SALT LAKE CITY, June q, 1884.
Editors Herald.

SALT LAKE CITY, June q, 1884.
Editors Herald:
The apple trees are in poor plight,
it is true. But they are not dead, ps
some people have imagined they
were. Most Of them are strit ped
pretty bare. But they will soon re-
cover and ciothe themselves, no
doubt. Once upon q time, our
apple tree orchards were great insti,
tutions. they bore we'll of fine
fruit. In those days they contTib9-
ted largely to the support of the
family in many instances. On some
lots the owners made a. mnch as
$1,000 in a season from the sale OF
apples. Many lot owner would like
to do as we'll now with his apples.
But those were the good old days of
apple gro wing. Things have changed
seriously since then. For several
years past the apple crop has been
worth little, through the raVsges of
that persistent pest, the cOdling
moth. This year the caterpillars
have not given the codling moth
much Of chance, so that altogether
the poor apple tree has fallen upon
evil days of late, and as a conse-
guence it is a big loss of dollars to,
Lac Territory, how many Thousands
OF dollars it is not for me to say,
out sufficient to make s fortune for
any moderate man. Some people
are so discouraged that they feel like
cutting their apple trees down and
being done with them. l mortally
nate to cut tree down which has
taken years of time and care to
grow, and don't think 1 shall cut
my apple trees down this year. AS
tothe worms, l feel more murderous
towards them, and would unLesit>
slngIy say kill them wherever and
W. ever and in whatever cond ton
