CANADIAN APPLE PROSPECTS POOR Taking 100 ua a standard for n full crop of iipplen, the average fur, the Dominion of Canada U about i7, ac cording to the latest crop report of the Canadian department of agrlcul ture IJust published. Karly aiplc are represented by 'IT per cent; fall vurletleo by 00 per cent, anil winter fruit by !." per cent. The earlier proHpect as reported by the department are net home out bv the "wet" of fruit. There waon exceptionally heavy "drop," and In many of the orchard which bore heavily last year, notwithstanding the full bloom, there will be little fruit. The damage done by the tent caterpillar over the eastern part of Ontario and the western and south ern part of Quebec ha been serious. In counties north of Lake Krle, the southwestern sections have suffered considerably from dry weather anil. with the exception of the Niagara district, from lack of good culture. Karly upplea show up best, although the fall and, winter varieties still show for a fair crop. The percentage for all apples In this district will be 71 per cent of a full crop.
