April 18 A light fruit crop Is In prospect for the Umpqua valley during the coming season, ac cording to J. Roland Parker, agricul tural agent. Prunes, the principal horticultural crop, have suffered heavy thrlp damage, while the trees have been shedding fruit buds until It appears that the crop will be very small. There will be only a very small percentage of Italian prunes this year. It Is stated, while the French varieties, petltes and dates, will be considerably below normal In quantity, although they have not been as greatly affected as have the Italian prunes. The fact that the trees bore an unusually heavy load last year and were forced Into early bloom this yesr by the mild spring weather Is believed to be responsible for the light crop. Bartlett pears, It Is stated, chow prospects of a fair yield, but other varieties will be light. MINERS CALL PRACTICE FOR THURSDAY EVENING lot. N.w. Photo.
