NEW WORKS PEAR CROP.
Hudson Valley Pears Find Market All
 over the world-value of the Crop.


 Over the world-value of the Crop.
 The Hudson valley of New York has long been conceded to be the greatest pear-producing country in the world, supplying almost entirely not only New York, Boston and Philadelphia. but many European cities.
 Last year the Hudson valley pear crop was unusually large, selling for several million dollars. Early this spring the outlook for fair production was very encouraging until the buds began to open, when the "temetocera ocellana" or bud moth" and the leaf roller" began their destructive work, destroying fully half the crop, eating into the heart of the bud.
 Few people have an idea of the labor and expense entailed in handling the pear crop. Between New York and AL bany immense numbers of people arc now employed picking and shipping pears.
 While the Hudson valley pears are not SO smooth and attractive as those of California, they are more highly ap- precinted and are of superior flavor. Generally the pears are sold to com mission men before they are ripe. Canada last year took about one-half of the states entire crop at s2.50 per bar rel. New York and Boston this year get two-thirds of the crop at three dol lars ger barrel.
 AS soon as the pears are picked they are barrclcd and shipped, in New York being sold by the barrel without dump ing. In Liverpool the sales are conduct cd differently, being sold entirely at auction and bringing five dollars per barrel.
 Bartletts do not stand transportation very well, consequently very few of them are shipped abroad. Liverpool is furnished with the Kieffer or more hardy variety, but not equal in flavor to the Bartlett. The pear industry in the Hudson valley is in its infancy, not withstanding that it produces large percentage of the worlds fruit, for there are thousands of acres of young trees not yet bearing and many thou sands more are being planted annually.
 At the present rapid rate of increase in fruit growth and culture Hudson country people predict that before many years the Hudson valley will be n gigantic orchard, extending from one end of the state to the other and capa- blc of furnishing a bonntiful supply of fruit for the entire world.--N. Y. Herald.
