drop thus far has been tremendous
Rains and cold weather during the bios

Railroad agents at Hancock had esti-
mated the apple crop at from TOO to
800 carloads and the peaches at 200 car
loads, as against 500 carloads of apples
last year and 200 carloads of peaches,
but it now may be necessary to cut deep

hill, one of the largest Hancock growers,
declared. Yorks have been least hit by
the drop, he said.
The peach crop in other sections of
the valley, however, was reported in fine
condition and indications pointed to a
bumper one with good prices in pros
pect, due to the shortage of the Georgia
peach crop.
