Cleaned About the Neighborhood
Townsend, April 19.-Reports from
the surrounding sections show that no
damage has been done to the fruit
crop and that the general opinion
through the lower part of the county
is that unless there are heavy frosts
between now and May, the fruit crop
will be heavy one. Although peach
and Keifer pear trees are in full
bloom in this section, several growers
have made inspections of orchards
hereabouts and say they had not
found single blossom killed by the
cold weather
The farm agents are informing the
local farmers that they should be en-
couraged for they have better pros
poets for better results this year than
last. The farm bureau men point to a
drift toward readjustment of eco
nomic conditions, that the dollar will
have greater purchasing power, and
that if only quality products are sold,
better prices are going to to be OBJ
tanned "now that the time for seeding
another crop is almost here" they as
sert, "every farmer and those inter
ested in agriculture are wondering
just what crops to put in that will
pay them best.'
There were special Easter serv-
ices at the M. E. Church on Sunday,
the srevices including special music
and a special sermon. The weather
being ideal large attendance was
had at all services.
