rho june Fruit Report.

WASHINGTON, July O. - The depart
ment of agriculture June report on fruit
prospects this year says that, 1888 being
numerically an even year, should be a
favorable season for apples, and the first
returns of the season show generally a
good prospect in every important fruit
section, especially in New England and
the middle states. The outlook is less
favorable in Virginia, the Carolnas and
Georgia than in any other. part of the
country. The condition of the peach
crop is generally reported lower than
that of apples, but in most important
peach states the reverse of this seems to
be true. In New Jersey the general
average of the condition is good. In
Delaware and Maryland the crop is re-
ported as the most promising for a num-
