A good and early bloom is showing on loganberries, but It la noticeable that there are good canen and poor canes showing in the same yards The practice is belnr established of outtinr off the poor canes to tat tho new shoots come out, but neverthles have them nut of the way for the pick ers. The loganberry crop will be short. It is expected but neverthe less probably up to last year's stnndard.
