ers, commission men and farmers, all
the way from Buffalo to Lake Ontario
and along the southern watershed Of the
lake, are figuring on one Of the finest
fruit crops that New York has ever pro-
duced. The somewhat backward spring
has checked premature development of
the buds and has also permitted extern
sive spraying and the eradication of the
usual spring tree diseases. Both the
apple and peach orchards are in splen-
did condition and bumper crops seem
certain. The grape crop promises to be
an unusual one and the outlook for pears,
plums, peaches. cherries and ounces is
