THE FEUIT CROP.

The fruit crop throughout the State is very
irregular. and because Of the variety of fruit
in the various sections it is difficult O. made a
comprehensive forecast; but by careful diri-
sion of the State it appears that In Appalachia
the fruit crop is very poor. but generally goou
in the New River Valley on the Southside
part is good and part very bad. The re-
ports from the Northern Neck ndicatr Il full
Weld. while that in the extreme Southwest is
almost total failure.
The lower Valley counties promise a fair
crop. and the apple and grape crops of the
Piedmont section are generally good. The
reports from the Iidewater and middle
counties are Irregular, but few are very
good.
