Ill S, Holly St. Phone 1279 A freak apple crop may be In store for James C. Murray, for In , the yard at his home at 734 West rourteenvi sireet is an nppio uec four or five years of age, which la In full bloom for the second time this fruit year, and lor that reason is attracting wide attention ana arousing much curiosity. This tree of an early variety, bloomed last spring like others of Its kind, and the blossoms gradually grew Into small, well formed apples, which sight caused Jim to rub his hands frequently In miserly glee at though of his harvest later on, until suddenly t crop began dropping off the tree. Mow that the tree Is blooming aguln, the perplexed Jim Is scratch ing his head this time. Instead of rubbing his hands, and knows not what to expect. When the second blooming of the tree was described to County Agent R. O, Fowler yesterday he was much Interested and said that the tree's conduct was very reprehensible to say the least, and that such sccond- I blooming was very unusual In the Iruit world. He said tnat ne wou.a view the curiosity as soon as pos sible. In the meantime Jim Murray Is scratching his head deeper dally, for In these hard times he does not like to spend any money massaging the tree with the various sprays pre scribed to bring apples to maturity lor harvest zree from Diemisi ana disease, unless he has to, -The cost of even one such spray ,mlght buy more shells for his gun during the fan hunting season, but a comforting thought to him Is that II apple trees are going to sport ap- plea by winter, the Chinese pheasanta ,und quail may possibly be wingless and the deer legless Vila fall. One can expect most anything. APPLEGATE FIRE N JOSEPHINE CO.
