Allen, manager of the Allon Fruit Company's cannery in this city, today told a Guard reporter that ho thoiiKht the prune crop In Lane coun ty this year would be only about 2 per cent of a full yield on account of the killing frost which occurred on (lu nlHhl of Friday, April 24. Mr. A Men has visited s' vera I prune or chards In the vicinity of Kugouo and finds In each a very poor outlook. Some have been effected worse than others, and he says his own orchard below the city looks about as bad or worse lhaa any he has seen. He thinks his crop will be less than 10 per rem of a full yield. "The frost seemed to catch t'.io prune blossoms In their tenderest stae and played great havoc with iheiu." said .Mr. Allen. "F.verv pruno orchard that 1 have examined shows up very poorly am) I think I am safo in sayltm that (hero will not be more than a fourth of a crop this year." While the prunes have suffered se verely, Mr. Allen thinks there waa no damage to any other fruit crop. The apple blossoms were not far enough along to hurt and the peach blossoms were too far advanced to be effected. The cherries aro all right, Mr. Allen thinks, and there ougt to be a bumper crop, although in one of two pbtces, It Is reported, they were nipped slightly. U waa f ' ST rmmmmA THOMAS F. RYAN.
