A BIGFRUlT CROP ASSURED
MISSOURI WEATHER HAS BEEN
JUST RIGHT.
The Snow Of Sunday Was A Help To
Peach Buds--Plenty OF Apples PIums
Aud Berries, Too, Are Promised.

Never was the outlook for bumper
fruit crop in Missouri better than now,
horticultursts say. They give two rea-
sons for expecting big fruit Yield this
season; first, because the winter has
been mild and the spring promises to be
ideal for fruit trees, and second, because
the bearing fruit trees were sturdy when
winter set in last year.
Lowell A Goodman, secretary Of the
Missousi horticultural society, recently
sent out to 800 fruit growers in the
state blank cards to be filled in with re
ports Of the fruit conditions in their To-
calities He has had returns from more
than fourfifths of the growers to whom
he sent the cards.
SNOW HELPED THE PEACH BUDS.
CHASING the prediction upon the re-
ports just received from all the iruit
areas the state 1 would say that this
seasons crop will surpass any we have
had since 1901" said Mr.. Goodman
yesterday. "The brightest outlook is
for peaches. The snow Of Sunday was
just what was needed for the proper en-
couragement of peach buds. 1t served
to hold them back at time when it is
important that they should not swell to
rapidly. | believe that with the break
ing up of the present cold spell all dan
ger Of winter damage to peaches will
have passed. About 10 per Cent of the
leach buds in the state were killed dur
the winter but that does not mean that
the crop has been impaired for there are
thousands of buds that must die for the
good of the tree.
There is but one section of the state,
said Mr.. Goodman, Sin which the peach
crop has been damaged, and that is in
the small belt in the extreme southwest
ern part. Ga January % the temper
allure down there fell to 5 degrees below
zero while on the same day up here it
was.5 above. Half of the peach buds in

A FAILURE FOR THREE SEASONS.


For the last three seasons the Miss
ouri peach crop has been total failure.
In 1905 it persisted in single day-Feb-
ruary ID. when the thermometer regis
tered 20 below zero over the greater part
of the state; cold weather in December
killed the crop in 1904. and the 1903
peach promise was Dipped after the trees
had blossomed. In midwinter peach
buds can live in temperature of Is de-
grees below zero, but as spring appro-
ches it takes less cold to kill them.
Continued freezing weather at this
time of year is sufficient to blight the
crop, The rigors of last week, however
have not harmed the peach prospects
in the least, and the only menace to
them that remains is that the blossoms
may be nipped.
APPLES, PLUMs AND BERRIES, TOO.
".As with the peach crop outlook so is
it with apples, plums and berries" said
Mr. Goodman. "All are 10 excellent
condition. The apple season, however,
is dependent upon the character of the
rainy season largely. Continued rains
tend to reduce the apple yield by wash
log away tie pollen from the blossoms,
thus keeping them from fertiizing.
Plums never get winter killed, they are
barber than peaches and come later, so
the outlook for good plum crop is al
most certain. Cherries, too, are able to
withstand any kind of winter weather.
They blossom about ten days later than
do plums and are consequently not a
variable crop,

year promises to be record breaker.

good market is assured for corn and
forage foods.
To give you an idea of the amount If
grain produced in the country contig-
Gus to Frederick, with another good
market IL miles to the north and one
less than that distance to the south,
made some inquiry of the local grain
buyers, elevators and cotton gins and
found that so far this year there had
been shipped from Frederick alone
10000 bales of cotton, representing n
half million dollars; 436 cars corn, worth
S132, 546; 206 cars OF oats which brought
71,216; 90 cars wheat yielding the snug
sum of s73,500; 100 cars Of cotton seed,
which brought to the farmers 1927, 252;
10 cars of milo maize worth $500: and
270 tons of broom corn with u value Of
Sl62, 200, thus making the grand total
OF 5000, oh, or including what was pur-
chased by curbstone dealers, something
over one million dollars.
While we don't think this is the land
of "milk and honey" as we looked over
the broad expanse we were led to be-
lieve it is veritable land of corn and
cotton. While standing on the streets
of Frederick one day we counted at one
time "a loads Of corn for sale, and in
conversation with grain buyer he told
us that he bought 32 loads of corn in
one day the week before,

closely about the matter Joe said, We
