Washington, June 10-Splendid pros
poets for fruit in New England and the
Pacific coast state almost counterbai-
ance the poor showing of the central
states, where early frost got in some
telling work. according to report

ported to be more than points below

year average for apples is 69.S In
New England and on the Pacific coast
the crop promises to be immense, but
In such big apple states as Ohio and
Missouri there will be only about one
third of crop.
More Peaches Than in 1909.
On the other hand. the peacn crop.
due to excellent prospects in Georgia
and Delaware. promises to be larger
than last year, the condition June l be-
ing $40, compared with 541 last year
