ROGERSDECLARES
Meteorologist Says About 15
Per Cent Damage Done to
Unheated Trees.
Thwa wai no frost damage
thi aeason In orchard where
mudge pota were lighted, but
in nnhfated orchard! the loas
will be about 15 per cent of the
total crop, either from a total
lou or lowering of grade be
,,. front marking! or other
deformity, according to an eitl
mate by Frost Meteorologist
Roy J. Rogers. Rogers closed his
office here yesterday, and left
today for Oakland, Calif., where
ha will attend weather bureau
rational technical conference
4nr th next three months.
Rogers further explained "it
would be difficult at this time
to accurately state what the loss
from the frosts will be, because
a further drop of young fruit
can reasonably be expected. Be
cause of the weakened condition
dim to the cold In many unheat
ed orchards, the loss will be
somewhat higher than the con
servatively estimated IS per
cent."
26 Cold Nights
During the current frost there
were 28 nights, from March it
to Mav 28. when minimum tern
peratures of 32 degrees or lower
were recorded in me orcnaras.

but no records were broken, and
there was no night on which
iinumallv long heating was
necessary.

lent firing was the nights of
March 13 and 14. when the

and on ADrll 18 during the
young fruit stage. The last light

Comparative Data

a few of frost seasons, for com
parison, are:

were only 6 nights after March
