FRUIT PLENTIFUL.
Encouraging Reports as to the
Crops-Frost Did Much
Damage.
Special to the Jcrseu citu Nc,cs.

TRENTON, July II. 1S95.-Secretary
Franklin Dye, of the State Board OF Agri-
culture, having received word that IN
Hunterdop county IS per cent. OF the
peaches had fallen in the usual June
DROP" determined to find out what the
prospect for peaches and other crops
in the State might be. He accordingly
sent out letters of inquiry to reliable per-
sons in all the counties of the State.
The result of his information was that
the outlook is not so black as he was
led to suppose. even IN Hunterdon
county. According to reports received,
peaches will be rather over half a crop.
In summarizing the returns received,
Secretary Dye Y Conflicting reports
concerning the fruit crops. and especially
peaches, have lately been received. To
determine at least approximately as to this
and some other crops. letters of inquiry
were sent to responsible men in each
of the counties of the State. Replies
have been received from enough to give
a fair estimate.
PEACHES PLENTY.
For peaches. if we take Hunterdon.
Sussex and Warren as the leading peach
counties, the average prospective yield
10 W pei Gilt " d 1ut1 S1OP. L VIC IL
clude Somerset and Morris, it is 80 per
cent; or for all the counties reporting,
the average is so per cent. for a full yield.
Previous to the une drop the prospect
was good for a full yield of this delicious
fruit. The other fruits named are above
so per cent.
Wheat, rye. oats and hay are given for
the whole State. and are made on the
basis of the per cent of the yield of each
county as related to the total yield Of
the State. Since these returns were re-
ceived continuous rains have injured both
grain and hay in some sections. The hay
prospect for much of the country is very
poor, and with the damage to a part OF
the crop in New Jersey by wet weather
the prospect for paying prices for those
in New Jersey who have a surplus is en-
couraging. The letters from correspond
ents show fruit tree blight, especially of
pear trees, to be seriously increasing.
WHAT FRUIT IS EXPECTED.
One hundred per cent. being the stand
ard of a full crop, the following are the
