PEACHES KILLED
BY GOLD, IS
CLAIM
Many Orchards Ruined, Say
Maryland Growers, and
All Injured

HAGERSTOWN, Nd, Jan. b.
The frigid wave of yesterday, which
broke weather records for the past
thirteen years by sending the mer-
curry "a degrees below zero. ac-
cording to official registrations,
caused a loss of many thouasnds
of dollars to the fruit industry IN
this section.
Fruit growers Of the South Noun.
tain belt agree that the intense cold
weather has killed or badly injured
all of the peaches in the lower part
of the belt by freezing the buds
in the wood. Peaches cannot
stand a temperature below Is de-
grees below zero, the growers say.
Peach orchards on higher ssround
probably have escaped, owing to
a difference in the temperature due
to altitude, as indicated in
the Keedysyille fruit section, where
the mercury stood at degrees be-
low zero on high ground while at
the weather bureau in Keedysville
the registration was 81 below.
Further damage has been done
to the orchards by the intense cold
the bark on the trees to
burst. Hundreds of peach, apple,
pear, plum, and other kinds of fruit
trees have been killed or injured
in this way.
