FRUIT YEAR LOOKED
FOR BY 0RCHADISTS;
PROMISE IS GOOD
ev WILLIAM r. SANBORN

The important facts with relation to
the outlook for fruit are: First, all
authorities agree that there was no
winter killing of any kind OF fruit
within the Richmond radius, either in
Indiana or Ohio. Next, there has been
no premature budding, because OF an
early or unreasonable warm spell. to
start the sap and develop buds. The
cold winter checked this and fruit
growers are sangulne OF seasonable
weather.
The result is a rich showing on all
fruf-trees and the, promise Of "a fruit
year" This is welcome news
Seven Varieties of Peaches
There is an orchard at the edge of
Eldorado that Will presently look like
a flower garden. Frank BlackIord,
the owner is an enthusiast, He loves
to work with his trees and we found
him busy pruning.
"lf were young man." said he,
81 would devote all my time and
money to fruit. The ordinary farm
orchard is disappearing from the map,
and we are all the more becoming
dependent on the commercial orch
ards. Every land owner should raise
fruit; the kind adapted to his locality
and climate; but they don't.
THE market for fruit and berries
is being widely developed; the de,
mand is increasing all the time and
the price of really good fruit, any
kind of fruit, is climbing right along.
Mr.. Blackford has nearly 40 Varie-
ties of peaches, plums, cherries, etc,
in his 10-acre orchard, some varieties
being represented by but few trees,
planted eXperimentally. In peaches
he has the Solway, an October peach,
the New Prolific, Champion, Carmen,
Lemon Free, Bears Smock and Ell
bertas, the latter in large numbers.
His orchard netted him about LOO
last fall and his strawberries brought
in few hundreds in early summer
Mr.. Blackford was for some years an
Ohio stale lecturer, and has just re-
turned from lecture trip covering
Delaware parts of Indiana, Michigan
and Wisconsin.
Peaches Soon to Blossom.
Peaches are early blossomers,' y
said Mr. BlackforG, land are due to
show color in about 10 days. Early
cherries will bloom about 10 days af
ter the peaches, and other cherries
shortly afterward. The promise for
all kinds of fruit Is excellent, and If
the weather is propitious we should
have plenty of fruit and berries. An
inspection of my orchard shows abund
ant promise. The weather Is always
a factor, but the outlook is extra good
at this time"
This was the concensus of opinion
Monday, several farmers having re.
marked on the development of the
buds within the past few days.

An interesting report made was
that of DR.. D.. G. Campbell. head of
the venereal disease work in Florida,
In which he stated that approximate

reported to the bureau of vital sta

in the past year. Although the fed
Ieral authorities have reduced their
financial aid sufficient funds have
been appropriated by the board to
continue this much NEEDED work thru
the coming year.
Satisfactory health conditions, gem

In England they are building roads
out of old trench helmets. If we at
tempted 10 do the same thing in Flor
ida the good roads opponents would
claim it would bankrupt the war de-
partment Jacksonville Metropolis.
The war department would tell you
the same thing England and Florida
are about the same size. They have
been building roads in England for
nearly 1000 years and their road
building is mostly road repairing.
Florida needs 5000 miles of new road.
It would take 5000 helmets to pave
a mile of road and over ten million
to pave 5000 miles. Not that many
helmets made during the great war.
Better figure little next time.
