Peaches Promise to be
Plentiful.

The dolorous wall of the peach crop
croaker is not as yet heard III the land
and the lovers of this luscious summer
product are hopeful of Il munificent sup
ply this season.
The peach cropis the arbiter of a great
part of the worlds affairs, i'll the esti-
nation of many, who base their hopes
upon the progress of the dainty pink
blossoms of the orchard. When peach
es are plentiful all the world seems glad
and every spring, when is repeated the
dismal plaint of the chronic pessimist
that 1.-THE peach crop is utterly ruined. y
a gloom settles Temporarily upon US all.
Dealers predict a good crop of all
kinds of fruit this spring. unless the un-
foreseen cold spell should suddenly set
in, as is. however, not improbable. There
have been few complaints from grow
ers down along the bay shore and i'll the
south of the state of the recent storms,
which have stripped many trees of their
branches and foliage, but the general
tone of fruit growers is optimistic. Only
continued good weather is needed to
give us the best fruit supply i'll years.
Prices are high at present i'll the fruit
line Apples are selling at 81. 10 barrel
an increase of 81 over last year Every
thing is higher than at this time year
