ALL JERSEY FRUIT
HARD HIT BY FROST
Buds That Escaped March
Freeze Nearly All Killed by
This Weeks Cold
ORCHARDS ARE BlACKENED

filassboro. y. j.. April BLACK
"n"d foliage and brown and wthcrcd
blossoms on apple orchards and other
fruit trees in South Jersey present
evidence of the severity Of the second
tiarchnck of the season which blightcd
the hopes Of many Jersey fruit growers
Of gathering peach or apple crops OF
any size this year.
orChnrdistS say that there is now no
question about tho peach crop being al
most entirely ruined and early apples
have apparently Jared little better. In
Cumberland County Waiter T.. MinCh,
prominent in the New Jersey State
Horticultural Society. reported that
peaches were showing ABOUT 10 per cent
of live buds and apples about II per
cent in his large orchards in that sec
ton before this last storm. H" now
fears that thu severe weather has fur
thcr reduced this percentage of live
buds.
Other fruit growers say that they
hav" experienced some bad seasons
when they have lost part of their crops
OF certain varieties of peaches and ap'
pies. but there hns never been yea
when all fruits have been 50 hard hi
as now. Charles +. lepp, big frui
grower here, recalls that more thar
twenty years ago his father had his
peach crop blightod by late frOsts fiv
| years in succession.
Early Strawberries throughout Soutl
| Jersey have been nippcd by this las
freeze and other small fruits also dam
| aged.

ing. and showed a net surplus avail
able for dividends after all charges. in
cluding Federal taxes, of $A3,lll,
which is equivalent to approximately
SIS q share on its outstanding capital
stock. A meeting has been called Tor
March 10 to take action on It's quar-
terlv dividend. Innumerable rumors
have been in circulation regarding the
probable action which will be taken on
the Chandler dividend. but 1t was stated
yesterday that no definite policy had
been adopted It was declared that the
amount Of the dividend would depend
entirely on the volume of orders on
hand at the time of the meeting, as
well as the outlook for the motor In

from Sss to AS points. but after they
had been executed there appeared to be
very little support for the stock, and
on the subsequent reaction. which af-
fected the entire list, 1t sold down
easily again to 47A. Later, however,
there was another rally in the stock
which brought 1t up to 4s7s. where it
closed with a net gain of better than
points. Trading in the stock slowed II
very materially. and with investiga- :

A specialist In Southern Pacific de-
clared yesterday that most orders exc
cuted in the railroad stock and the new
oil stock were for the account of Dutch
investors. He said that Holland in
vestors were formerly heavy holders of
