FRUIT CROP is KILLED.
FRUIT CROP ALL RlGHT
Doctors Disagree on Con-
ditiOnS Here
BUT PEACH CROP WILL BE SHORT
Upon This Point There Is No Discus.
SiOn--POOr Season Rather Than
Gold Weather the Direct
Cause.

The fruit crop is killed. is be-opin-
ion of one authority. 1.-THE fruit crop
is safe" is the opinion of another. "We
will have half crop says a third,
and thus it goes. No cat in history
ever had as many lives as the Georgia
peach crop.
A magnificent crop is killed, buried
and resurrected in a day.
Americus peach growers are as wide
ly at variance in their opinions regard
ing the crop as are those of any other
section within the broard domain of
Queen Elberta.
Mr.. X. 5. Broadhurst, who has some
thing like 10000 bearing trees in
beautiful orchard near Amerleus, is
positive that this crop will prove "a
failure. He has carefully examined
his trees and says the peaches are dead,
black at the heart.
Not ten percent of a crop he thinks,
will be realized.
Mr.. c. I. Broadfeld, another sue
cessful fruit grower here, is likewise
confident that the crop was killed by
the recent frost
Upon the other hand. experts who
examined the trees of the big Bagley-
Gober orchard where 40O. 900 trees are
in bearing, insist that the fruit is not
injured and exhibit branches taken
from this orchard 10 substantiate their
assertion.
Certainly these peaches do no appear
10 be in the least injured. They are
as large as partridge eggs and sound
to the chore as evidenced by inspec-
ton under glass.
In this orchard are many trees with
few peaches, but this is attributed TO
unfavorable weather conditions during
the fall and early spring months.
Other trees, both Elbertas and Georgia
Bellies, In this big orchard are heavily
fruit laden.
There may not be full crop as ex-
pected, but there will be plenty of.
peaches for home consumption, and for
this we are thankful.

for its success.
The article it is to put on the market
is one that is in constant use through
out the country. From Americus
demand can be created that will extend
throughout the State and country.
Those acquainted with it praise its
merits highly and predict great sue
cess for it as soon as arrangements
have been made for its manufacture
and marketing.
This is one of the best items of news
the Times Recorder has published in
many months, 1t shows that the men
of means in Americus are willing to
take hold of a good thing when it offers
and push it along, that they are alive
to the necessity of making this a
manufacturing point, and that the
start has been begun that is to. make
Americus hive of industry

twelve months as do now.
At that time, too, there was an air OF
depression over the community where
there is now spirit of confidence pre-
vaiIing,
Then properties were unrented,
where now it is almost impossible to
find desirable store or home Offering.
At that time, too, realty values were
low, whereas at this time they are gain

public improvements thought of. Now
the city is about to take great steps
in that direction.
AS a result, every visitor to Ameri-

full of hope and ambition, city that
feels assured of its future, city that is

Commissioner.

AS result of what is said to be the
coldest April weather on record at the
Office of the weather bureau, the opin-
ion is expressed by Commissioner of
Agriculture T. G. Hudson that grow
ing crops in middle and south Georgia,
truck gardens practically all over the
state and the fruit crop in many Sec
tions, have been seriously damaged.
The temperature went down TO 80 de-
groes-freezing point-'C Cotton, south

warm weather led to extensive early
planting, hence the destruction from
the cold weather has been the greater.
Truck has been killed; corn, oats
and grain have been badly damaged,
but will recover to some extent; canta-
loupes and water melons have been
killed and replanting will be necessary.
''It is difficult to estimate the damage
that has been done peaches and other
fruit, but late reports indicate that it
has been extensive. There is no
doubt about the fact that the high
winds have beaten great deal of the
young fruit off the trees
