KILLED FRUIT TREES.
Extreme Cold Weather Raised Havoc
In Vassalboro Orchards.

Reports received from the town OF
VaSSalboro tell Of great havoc which
was wrought to apple trees in that
town by the extreme cold weather Of
last winter, some of the orchards be-
ing practically ruined through the
trees being killed by the cold. The
trees thus affected were in each in
stance Of the Baldwin variety, that
being less hardy than other Maine APP
pie trees, and which is said to be I'M
able TO stand a temperature greater
than 40 degrees below zero.
1t will be remembered that on two
different occasions the cold exceeded
that degree, the thermometer on one
morning registering 60 degrees below
zero at Broadacrcs stock farm at Riv-
ersdc, and it is believed that the de-
structiOn was wrought on these occa-
siOnS.
The heaviest loser thus far reported
is Il. II. S'tarkey, the wellknown or
Chardist, who had 115 trees killed. +.
II. Cook is also another heavy loser,
and Joseph II. Smiley also suffered the
loss of many trees. In each case the
trees which suffered were those which
bore the heaviest last year. Mr.. Cook
estimates the damage done to fruit
trees in the town by the cold weather
10 be fully 100000.
