LOWEST time OF the year in this sec

bloom, each tree resembling a huge
bouquet. Never has there been
heavier bloom and every Indication
points to an exceptionally heavy
crop OF all kinds OF fruit. Peaches,
apricots. cherries and all small
fruits came trough the winter In
splendid shape and II no late frosts
come to injure the young fruit an
immense crop II assured. Alfalfa
and grain fields are forging anead
rapidly. the warm sunshine and ir-
rlgation during the past 10 days
making them fairly jump.
orchardists have given careful at
tention TO spraying this spring and
not a tree. bush or vine has escaped
the spray nozzle. Rather severe
pruning has been the rule this
spring also. not only In the orchards
but the shade trees have been sharp
ly cut back as well. Tulips, narcls-
sus and other spring Towering
bulbs are showing wealth OF
bloom ust now. New Plymouth
people IN general take keen inter-
est In beautlfying their home
grounds, but this spring shows
greater activity along this line than
ever before. Quantities OF roses.
ornamental trees and Towering
shrubs are being planted. Another
thing which causes considerably
is tho fact that more
attention is being given TO the prop
