Tyrone. Pa, May 24.-Residents
of towns along the Tyrone division
are protesting vigorously over the
Withdrawal of the steel passenger

tuition therefor of wooden coaches.
These latter are old derelicts, OF an
antedeluvian type, long looked upon

is given that the restoration OF tne

the county.
Apnles peaches and plums all
promise TO be normal crop in this
county. although the production of
peaches and plums Is som ewhat in
consequential. No applcs have been
frozen. the county agent says.
The strawberry production in Dau-
phin county is questionable. Few
reports have been received since
the heavy storms of the past several
davs and it is not known what dam
age may have been done. The plants
were in full bloom when the unfavor-
able weather began and considerable
damage may have resulted, Mr.. Mes
ley believes
Bumper Crops
Wheat and hay promise to be
bumper crops among the other prod
ucts of-the county. The wet wealth
er of the past several weeks has
been quite favorable to the growth
of both of these crops and a pro-
duction ten per cent. above normal
may be expected. Both are several
weeks ahead of the normal growth.
The wheat acreage is larger than nor

more than usual being planted to this
rain.
Corn, oats, barley and rye all
promise normal productions. Their
growth has been somewhat hindered
by the cold and wet weather and all
are somewhat late. Slightly less
ground than usual is planted to corn
and wheat. The rains of the past
several days have washed some corn
from the round. while much of it
has not yet been planted because of
unfavorable weather.
1t is too early to give an accurate
forecast of what may be expected in
the line of potato crop. Mr.. Niesley
said. but everything now appears to
be quite favorable for a large pro-
duction. A larger acreage than US
ual has been planted to the tubers,
but the growth has not been as fast
as usual because of unfavorable
weather conditions
