Marked decrease In the American appla crop of 1)17, as contraated with that of the prevloua year, la shown by the estimate recently compiled and made public by the. Oregon State Board of Horticulture for the information of Ore (ton grower and shippers. Mew York, the principal apple-grow- lne; state of the East, show a decrease of (& per cent, or 455.000 barrels. The New England state show decrease from Zt to 60 per cent, or JS4.000 bar rels. Virginia and Maryland show de creases of 35 per cent, or 600,000 bar rels.
