VERMONT FRUIT CROP
Probably Fair But Not Large This
Year.

There will be a good crop of fruit
in Vermont this year The quality as
well as the quantity viii be satisfac-
tory. This is the whole story in a
nut shell. This general forecast has
been made up from reports received
from all parts OF the state. The some
what misleading statements originat-
ing from certain favored sections to
the effect that there would be a bump
err crop, are toned down by the con.
dieting statements from other sections
that the crop IS small, and MI not ex-
coed 20 per cent Of normal output
An accurate forecast therefore can
only be formulated by taking the
whole state into account; and further
more by considering the relative i'm
portance of each section in contribut-
ing to the total crop for the state. AS
near as can be estimated therefore,
the fruit crop for Vermont this year
will be as follows;
Apples 20 percent; pears 40 per
cent; plums 80 per cent; strawberries
so per cent; raspberries 80 per cent;
gCoseberries and currants 80 per cent;
blackberries 70 per cent.
The general verdict is that the quail
ity is good, especially is this true Of
the classes OF small fruits. and among
orchards fruits where trees have been
carefully sprayed, In unsprayed
orchards there is much scab. and evil
dence of much harm from insects.
1t is we'll that there is to be a good
crop of fruit this season, for this is
the year for the great fruit show. The
New England Fruit Show meets with
the Vermont State Horticultural
Society in November at Montpelier I'M
der the auspices Of the Montpelier
Board of Trade. There will be prem
iums in excess Of $1,000; four day
lecture and demonstration program,
conducted in part by the staff OF the
University of Vermont which will he
assisted by other New England col
leges. Prof. NJ. b. Cummings said the
combined exhibitions were not decid-
ed upon until the status Of the Yer
mont crop could be forecasted.
Many invitations have been received
for the orchard meeting Of tho society
to be held in Grand Isle County and ac-
ceptance is expected.
