BANNER FRUIT YEAR
This Year Promises to be a Very
Good Fruit Year.

iHs rear PROMISES 10 be very
Good Fruit Year.
Unless late frosts do damage to
fruits, this promises to be a banner
year for this peninsula, and the out
look at this time is exceedingly
bright. The prospect for peaches,
pears and apples is good. but exper-
fence has taught the growers not to
place too much dependence in the for
mer fruit, and while another peach
crop this year would be welcomed by
the growers, a failure would not be
as disastrous as it would have been
few years ago. In the first place
the acreage is comparatively small
considering the growth a few years
ago, for the ''yellows" have killed
off many orchards, and disgusted
growers have dug others up. Fruit
growers of the lower part of the state
are pinning their faith to the small
fruit and vegetables at the present.
for the former is less likely to be
killed by the disastrous late frosts
which visit the peninsula, and there
is far less likelihood of markets be-
ing glutted. The growth of the
strawberry industry has increased
gradually on the peninsula during the
last ten or twelve years, and Sussex
county now grows more Strawberries
than any other region of similar area
in the world. The outlook this year
is particularly good and the season
will be on the middle of next month.
Cantaloupes will also be grown on a
large scale this year. The growing
of cantalOupes was taken up last
season as an experiment, and it prov
ed very successful, so that the melon
is to be grown for the big markets
this year in very large quantities.
Only fancy varieties will be grown in
order to suit the demands of the big
markets. Potatoes, white and sweets,
will be grown upon a more extensive
scale than ever before, while the
acreage of sweet corn and peas will
be up to the average. Delaware has
forged ahead rapidly during the last
five years as an spple-growing
state, until the apples grown here
hold their own in size and appearance
with the famed western product and
command better prices. Every indi-
cation points to 3 big yield the COM
ing season.
