Two weeks ago the prospect for big
crop of peaches seemed almost assured
but alas, the happy anticipations OF
fortnight ago have. been blasted, and there
Is now an assured fact that there will not
be one-fourth Of a crop, and many or
cbards will not mature tenth Of crop.
The hot suns Of tits and last week has
scalded the buds and caused millions OF
them to wither and die.
The young, vigorous and thrifty trees
seven years old and under, are not gong
to produce a tenth, and in many cases a
twentieth part of crop. The hot suns,
coming so suddenly after a season OF I'M
usually cool weather, caused the sap to
ip,up and boil and scald the young buds
10 their death. This is specially the case
with trees four, five, six and seven years
old. and these are the very ages OF the
trees usually producing the best fruit
The trees that were injured by the late
frosts do not seem to have suffered so
badly by the hot suns. We have exam
iued many orchards wherein three-fourths
of the buds we're killed by the frosts dur
ing March, and they do not seem to be
at all injured by the Thermometer jump
ing so suddenly TO 90. 1t is safe to say
that the sudden hot spell has shortened
the prospect of a crop by at least two mil
lions Of baskets.

reports an accident at Abbott & Bros snip

the Slipping of Jack screw and broke one
of the bones in his right leg.
If the reporter had been energetic enough
to have gone where the accident occurred and
had presence of mind to pull of his gold
glasses and get his head down little he
might have learned the difference between a
lack screw and clamp screw, the latter
being used az the time. He would have
learned that Jack" was thrown by the

fortunate one he would have tried to get his
right name ana not said 'Tack" Ross; PEG
pie who do not know him may think that he
is a bum" worthless negro, or an emf

have learned that It was the ibula bone Of
the right leg that was broken, and that the
