gree, For several weeks past the weather

snap came 1t caught the fruit trees just
ready to burst the swelling buds into
blossoms. 1t is thought that peaches were
to large extent killed by the severe
weather in January but such as escaped
that are now certainly gone. Cherries,
plums and apples are almost totally de.
stroyed in the central and northern part
of the state. A dispatch from English
says that the frost has doubtless destroyed
the apple crop, the buds of which were
well advanced. All small fruit and
peaches were destroyed weeks ago.
