An Easter Luncheon

With Easter comes spring and its
wealth of blooms and greenness.
While white is most emphatically the
color of the Resurrection-tide and our

mingle the two and garnish the table
with branches of cherry blooms while
around them the violet plants bedded
in moss set off the paler beauties
above them. In planning the menu we
may, to some extent, carry out the
color scheme, decorating here and
there with candied violets such dishes

JUNE DROP" AND THE PEACH CROP
Natures Thinning Out Process Now 90 But n
dicatons Point to Plenty of Fruit Of all
Kinds and a Busy Fruit Season.

The ''June drop" the last and most
serious hardship and crucial season
through which the peach crop must
pass, is now on and peaches are falling
from the trees, from those on the top
most boughs to those near the earth.
The drop is this year very heavy, but
the crop is also extremely large, and
by many growers even a heavy drop is
looked upon as something beneficial,
as it acts as a pruning for the trees and
relieves them of the burden of nourish-
ing superfuous fruit The condition
of the fruit crop is always a question
of lively interest, and discussion of the
present prospects is constantly going
on among all classes of citizens, and
among town residents quite as much
as among the fruit growers themselves.
From all that can be gathered it is.
evident that most varieties of peaches
in well kept orchards still have enough
fruit for heavy yield. Some Of the
tender varieties may be rather shy in
certain localities, but unless very un-
usual conditions prevail the Delaware
peach crop this year will be the largest
in a quarter of century. The fate of
the apple crop, or rather it's size, is
still somewhat uncertain Some of our
largest orchards, however, are full.
The twig blight, which is identically
the same thing as the pear blight,
starting in the blossoms, destroyed
many of them and in some orchards
the blackened leaves on the tips of the
branches give the trees a very bad ap-
pearance, and this blight has reduced
the crop of fruit materially. AS the
fruit on the Keifer pear trees increases
in size it is becoming more apparent
that the yield of this fruit will also be
large. Strawberries haye nearly all
gone to market, and while the yield
was cut at least one-half, prices have
more than made up for the loss.
