&C. w. Bean, who has just re-
tuned from a visit to his fruit farm
g. Wawawai states that the fruit

not be more than half crop of
plums, cherries or prunes, with the
exception of Italian prunes which
have escaped injury. Prof. Bean
thinks however that the quality of
the fruit this year will be better
and the scarcity will make better
prices so that the fruit grower will
get fair profit for all he may be
able to market.
