their contents, were utterly destroyed.

After q run of nearly ninety miles on

TULARE COUNTY'S
| BIG FRUIT CROP,
Visalia Reports Predict a
Very Profitable
Season.
AN INCREASED ACREAGE
Good Prices Will Prevail and
Fully Compensate for
Frost Damage.
0RCHARDISTs ARE CHEERFUL.
Citrus Fruit at the Exeter, Lindsey
and Lemon Cove Districts

oRcHARDfsTs ARE CHEERFUL

| VISALIA, CAL, May 10.-The frui: crop
OF Tulare, speaking generally, has out
lived the frost scare. 1t is true that the
crop will be smaller than if there had been
no frost at all, but it is also true that, in
spite OF the frost, the fruit crop of Tulare
County will be even larger than it was last
year.
From this statement it would not be cor
rect to draw the inference that the frost
did little or no damage here. The fact is
| that the unusual and most unexpected
| cold weather did considerable damage,
and yet when the entire output of the
county is considered. the loss is relatively
quite small. However, the larger fruit
crop in Tulare County this year is due not
SO much to its freedom from frost, but to
the very largely increased acreage that
will come into bearing this year.
A good deal of inquiry among the fruit
men of this county has elected its corre-
spending quota of valuable information
concerning the crop this year and its dam
age or freedom from frost. The frost
seemed to strike in spots. Here and there
orchards have suffered greatly, even kill
ing the crop entirely. Right aside of
these places, however, are other orchards
OF from 90 to 100 acres of prunes, peaches
and apricots that escaped untouched.
From all the information obtainable it
would appear that those orchards that had
just been irrigated, or were being irrigated
at the time, were the ones that escaped
with the least injury to the fruit.
Upon the whole the fruit men of Tulare
County are by no means disheartened.
On the contrary, seeing good prices ahead,
they are quite optimistic and to a man
cheerful. Had it not been for the frost it
is quite likely that fruit would have been
a drug on the market and much of it gone
a-begging or sold for prices entirely too
small to leave q reasonable profit to the
grower.
AS it is, there is bound to be good de-
mand for deciduous fruit this year, for not
every locality has escaped so lightly as the
favored Tulare County district.
In the Encina orchard, of which Ben M.
MADDOX is president, there are at least
eighty acres of good peaches that escaped
untouched, and out of the entire 440 acres
in thu orchard there are many large spots
of other deciduoGs trees that also escaped
and will yield good return. When ques-
toned concerning the fruit outlook, Mr..
Maddox expressed himself as entirely
pleased with it and said he expected an
unusually profitable year. On the Evans
dale orchard, which Is owned by the same
company, in spite of the fact that all the
young prunes are wiped out, there are
enough good peaches of sufficient acreage
of five-year-old prune trees that withstood
the cold weather to make fine crop, even
at much smaller prices than are reasonably
anticipated.
The Visalia Fruit and Land Company's
440-acre orchard, of which County Clerk
William H. Hammond is president, will
