FRUIT FOR THE
PANHANDLE
TrseSW III Produce Every Year
When Proper Varieties are
Developed
lrrom Saturdays DailyJ


81 am surprised that this country
up around here has developed as
far along AS II has without more or
chards and trees to show what II can
do" said d, j, Muncy, the Lockney
nurseryman, yesterday during a call
at the Daily Panhandle office, "A
plot Of ground here developed with
orchards and vineyards and berries
as IL could be would be worth thou
sands OF dollars to the town and
country"
Mr. Muncy has been in the nur-
sery business in the Panhandle at
Lockney for eighteen years and Is
accordingly competent to speak OF
conditions and possibilities in the
Panhandle, lie Is now looking for a
location with railroad facilities for
putting in branch Of his nursery
and he is figuring on places near
Amarillo,
Peaches That VIII Bear.
"a am sure that We can get trees
here that VIII miss these late frosts
and which will bear crops OF fruit
as often as they do In any other
country" continued MIR. Muncy, in
answer to a question as to the pos
sibility OF overcoming the danger OF
late frosts which so often destroy
fruit crops in the Panhandle. quite
often, more often than otherwise,
varieties OF fruit trees that are all
right for other climates won't sue
coed here at all because they bud too
early or for some reason like that,
BY trying many varieties we can
pick out certain ones that do well
here all the time For instance
have found certain varieties OF
peaches that nurserymen In other
places don't say much about or even
condemn, but which succeed here
and do much better than varieties
which nurserymen in other places
praise az being the best producers
OF the best fruit. Generally speak
ing a variety that nurserymen'fh wet
cllmates condemn because II will rust
or blight Is just the thing here be-
cause in this climate there is hardly
any danger OF blight.
"Tt's the same way with berries
Berries Of all kinds do fine here but
varieties that succeed In other places
sometimes fail to produce here at all
We can keep on picking out strings
that do produce though till we will
get varieties that will bear every
year here.
