EXPECTS
BIG APPLE YIELD
Fruit Growers to Get Monthly
Report on Crop
Estimates.

COLLEGE PARK. Nd. June 81
The orchards OF Maryland will pro
duce $4,000 barrels OF apples this
fall II later conditions do not upset
the estimates OF S. b. Shaw. score
tsry OF the State Horticultural So
ciety. who In conjunction with the
commercial fruit growers, the state
agricultural extension service and
the bureau OF crop estimates, Depart
ment OF Agriculture. has prepared
the first OF series OF fruit reports
20 be issued monthly by the state
horticultural society.
This service which will go to the
fruit growers OF the State. will take
the place OF bulletins formerly Issued
by the Department OF Agriculture on
fruit conditions throughout the eoun-
try and which have been suspended
because of limited funds. The hg-
ures and reports from neld agents
OF the Department OF Agriculture.
however. win be available for refer
ecne so that conditions OF crops In
other important apple growing
States will be included in the service
inaugurated by the, State horticul-
tural society.
Secretary Shaw's nrst report. which
covers the period up to June 10Th,
indicates that the yield In Maryland
will be slightly below the glowing
expectations of the early spring
when the trees were in bloom, Frost
and continued cool weather have
c-.used many of the young apples TO
fall and this condition may continue
for another month.
Indications. however. are for a Is
per cent crop which is 10 per cent
better than the ten-yeAr average and
compares fayorably with present
conditions in the majority OF the
other apple growing states. Hart
ford county predicts a fair crop. Al
leRany county estimates indicate
5000 bushels more than last year.
while Carroll county expects yield
very little better than last fall.
Frederick county reports prolinc
bloom but forecasts only a 30 per
cent crop as a result OF the late cold
weather. Garrett and Worcester

It seems to be the fashion now adays for parents to bring up their boys so the boys won't be able tc support themselves in later years. Another trouble with this country right now is that too many men are trying to run automobiles on street car ticket incomes.

Think It Over If you and friend wife have quarrel, Don't take it to heart like a job;
 year,
 Don't think you're a much-abused
 slob, For neither of you is quite perfect, And neither can use wise restraint; For you haven't married an angel, And she hasn't married a saint. Remember your wifes merely human, And you often grate on her nerves {; Remember her life's filled with long
 ings,
 She seldom gets what she deserves. You're getting the best of the bar

 And you should give ear to her
 plaint; For you haven't married an angel And she hasn't married a saint. The fact is, a husband is selfish, He thinks he should have his own
 way; His wife should not lose her goo9

 Although he is grouchy all day. Just treat her as you'd treat a buddy, And you'll have no cause for com.
