Possibilities in Peach and Apple Growing
Wheat Prospects

Prot. Willis G. johnson, State Entomolo-
gist. in "a recent letter to Col. John NJ. Hood,
president of Western Maryland Railroad
Company, said
'We have been making some special m
vestigations in the vicinity of Union Bridge
along the line of Your road, and we are very,
glad to report that there are some very fine
and promising young peach orchards in the
vicinity, which are coming into bearing the
first time this year. We desire to state that
there is a large area in that section adapted to
the cultivation of the peach, and we feel GER
tain that there will be good crop this sea
son, and that many others will be induced to
plant orchards for commercial purposes W hen
they see the quality and quantity of fruit taken
from the young orchards this season.
There is also good opening for the cult
vatlon of the apple in that section, especially
the varieties Ben Davis, York Imperial and
Smith Cider.
I've are also glad to report that the wheat
crop along the line of your railroad was, per
haps, never in better general condition at tins
season than it is at this lime-April %. Some
few growers have had some little difficulty
with the Hessian fly, but as a rule good farm
ers are now following the advice We have
given them about planting wheat to avoid The
attacks of this insect, and as a consequence
all through Western Maryland the paintings
we're later last tall.

by the unexpected token Of regard and esteem
which it conveyed, he could scarcely COM
mand language in which TO convey his thanks
and express his feelings IT is the most cher
ished gift he ever received, and he will always
highly prize it.
