outlook for tho fruit th's year. The

normal crop, and this promlso was
held out only by tho districts which
did not suffer from tho copious
sprliiK rains which washed tho pollen
out of tho blooms and from the kill

J. Mack Tenner of Springfield, III.,
was as follews:
Missouri Reports in Missouri
vary from 5 to 35 per cent. Tho
crop In tho Ozarka Is practically
nothing, while In northern Missouri
some orchards are good. For thb
wholo state a fair estimate would be
20 per cent.
Illinois Poor crop all over the
state. A fair estimate is 10 per cent
of a normal crop.
New York Reports vary from 60
to 80 per cent of a full crop. The
fruit Is reported to be good and the
