- "V WO cold snaps this spring caused wlde-
snreml dninaiie to the fruit crons.
The southern limit of the one at the
end of March was well Into Oklahoma.
Kentucky and Maryland. The one In
April did not extend bo far south, but
J 3$ 7 frost. The northern, limit of damage
rC " in both runs up to the Great Lakes
nud In Minnesota and New York and
Vermont, clear to the Canadian boundary.
Reports are that the damage Is heavy In places.
For example, two experts of the crop reporting
service in Missouri estimated the damage to fruits
and early vegetables at $10,000,000.
The apple crop In Washington, Denton, and oth
er counties In the northwest Arkansas fruit region
will be practically a total loss, reaches and cher
ries weie killed and strawberries damaged almost
50 per cent.
Dispatches said about 05 per cent of the fruit
crop la Oklahoma is ruined.
It Is estimated that Nebraska's crop of early
vherrles, apples, pears, and plums Is a total loss.
The early varieties of fruit lu some eastern
states also suffered heavily.
Karly peaches, cherries, and plums probably
have been killed In southeastern Pennsylvania.
The coltl weather seriously dumaged the fruit
crop In tho southern purt of Ohio, where the fruit
was far advanced.
Thousands of -Maryland fruit trees were" in full
bloom when hit by this frost. Growers In Wash
ington county, the center of tho western Maryland
peach belt, report the poach crop destroyed.
The fruit crop lu Kentucky apparently was
killed.
Therefore tho following article, prepnred by
the United States Department of Agriculture, Is
worth tho nttentlon of every fruit grower:
The wenther bureau of tho United States De
partment of Agriculture has been ablo to discover
tho wenpon used by that old enemy of mankind,
Jack Frost, and In a recent published report It
tells'the farmer and fruit growerjust what Jack's
Invisible weapon Is, and how, tinder ordinary con-
dltions, the sprites own artillery may bo used
against him. )
Frost, of course, occurs whenever the mercury
drops to 82 degrees F. or lower. If much mois
ture Is present In tho atmosphere this drop In
tempernture Is manifested by the white crystals
of frozen moisture upon leaf or grass stem, and
there Is what Is known as a "white frost." If the
tempcroture drops to tho required degree and
does not reach tho point when water from tho
air Is condensed, there will be few crystals de
posited, and the result Is a "black frost." A
"freeze" Is tho term applied to n condition of cold
more permanent than a frost, and such a condition
may occur when thero are high winds. True
"frosts" occur only when the surface air Is rel
atively calm.
Temperature, like water, seeks a level. During
tho day the earth receives more heat than It can
throw off, but nt night this supply of heat Is
stopped. During the day tho heat thrown off
by the earth warms tho thin blanket of air next
the ground. This blanket, as It warms, loses Its
density and nscends. Cooling as It rises, present
ly It encounters air of Its own temperature, and
there It stops. Meunwhllo Its place has been
taken by other colder air, which Is In turn warmed
by contact with the ground. This exchange goes
on until, at sundown, all tho air of a wide layer
ubovo the earth has been wnrmed, and tho high
est temperature Is felt nearest the earth.
Earth Squanders Its Heat.
Now, with tho sunset, old earth begins to suffer
from a bit of aerial trickery. All day long bo
hns been patiently passing nut heat to ono cold
air layer after another; night comes, and with
It the loss of his botirco of supply, but do theso
warm upper layers pass back any of tho heat they
begged during the day? They do not unless
they are iiiudo to. Tho layer close to tho earth
does, and thus they leave their coldest blanket
against tho shivering eartli while they snll about
40 or no feet nbove their lato benefactor, serene
and warm and selfish, llttlo caring tlint the spend
thrift earth Is freezing-his toes below.
As the earth becomes colder tho" nlr blanket
next Ills brown old skin becomes colder, too, and
heavlor as It becomes colder, so thnt the colder It
grows tho more tightly It fits, and ho has little
chanco of throwing off his chilly coverlet to selzo
a wartacr zono. The earth, too prodigal of his
dny-tlmo heat, i egrets his generosity of the sun
shiny hours.
On rnlny days, when tho cloud strata has cut
off the sun's heat, the earth Is not much warmed
during tho day. If, during the night, the clouds
blow away, the earth Is apt to go bankrupt. That
Is why, when the season Is passing from spring
to summer, or from summer to fall, a three djys'
ruin Is so often followed by a frost. Tho first
clear night presents heat bills to the earth which
he Is unable to pay, and Jack Frost, nature's
sheriff, places his crisp seal upon the Improvident
old fellow. The farmer looks out, across his
blasted fields In tho morning and sighs', "A kill
ing frost last night." And this Is because the old
eat Hi, already gray jvlth age and experience,
hasn't yet learned how to "save up for a rainy
day 1"
The most common method for frost prevention
Is to establish a sort of savings bank for the old
fellow earth. Rest assured that he'll spend his
reserve If he enn 1 Glass makes tho best heat sav
ings bank. It has the curious property of allow
ing the heat from the sun to pass through to the
earth, but It will not allow the radiated heat from
the earth to go back to- the "eager air." Glass Is
expensive, however, and can be used only for tho
protection of comparatively small areas of ground.
Wood Is also n good watchman to set above the
ancient prolllgate. Though It will not allow heat
to pass from the sun ns glass does, neither will
It allow It to pass outward from the earth. In
sections of the South a lath network Is used to
cover crops during the danger periods. The wood
en network holds down a largo amount of heat,
and when n frost occurs It helps the frozen plants
by shading them fromthe direct rays of tho
morning sun and allows them to thaw gradually.
Quick thawing of the frozen wnter particles In
plant or fruit Is fatal, as It causes the cellular
tissues to break down; If the thawing process Is
very gradual tho plant may reabsorb the iluld
and the damage done may he surprisingly slight.
Various Methods Used.
Paper Is of less vnlue In conserving heat than
Is wood, though It Is more efficient than cloth.
Cloth allows that cold mcndlcar.t, the air, to pene
trate to thu earth and steal tho Inst degree of
heat from him. h'o a cloth covering must be qultu
heavy If the frost Is n hard one. Iron or metal
pots are not at all good os bunkers for the earth
they allow the heat to pasa back Into the air al
most as readily as the earth Itself.
There Is another method that Is employed to
save the spendthrift from the sheriff. The pres
ence of moisture In tho nlr makes the radiation
of heat dlfilcult nml helps greatly to conserve the
heat which the earth already holds. Also, If the
temperature drops to freezing each drop of water
gives up it hit of latent heat before congealing,
and all these tiny contributions help to keep tho
biirface air warmer.
A breeze from ocean, lake, or river will usually
bring this wet blanket, nud It can sometimes be
supplied In an nrtlfielal inannei by letting water
Into Irrigation ditches. Results not so good may
lie had by building dnmp smudge fires In the or
chard. Cranljerry growers often save their enrps
by Hooding tho area with water. In tho event of
extreme cold It Is often possible to submerge en
tlto areas growing this crop. This gives nbsoluto
protection. -Less prodigal than earth, wnter keeps
Its reserve beat for long periods o'f time.
Force Air to Be Honest.
Tho third method of keeping tho earth solvent
Is by adding heat to tho air layers near tho sur
face. This Is dono by means of mnny small fires
of oil, coal, wood, or orchard refuse, and la a
method well known lu sections whore fruit grow
ing Is a spcclnlty. It Is sometimes scorned nu nn
attempt to "warm up nil outdoors," but that Is
not what happens, exactly. Wo know that, at
night, the nlr ubovo tho earth Is warmer than
the air directly agiJlnst It. Therefore, if tho low
er and colder strata could bo lifted and mixed
with tho upper nlr, n higher and more cquablo
tetnperuturo would result.

KMMl.
Many n fruit grower has nursed an expensive
orchard to the point of hearing only to seo
his well-deserved reward vanish lu a single-night,
lint more and more we are discovering that, If
wo cannot defy certain natural 'laws, we may still
nullify their results through it better understand
ing of flielr principles. This Is what the up-to-date
fruit grower does. lie cannot eliminate
frost, but he can use Its principles to protect him
self from Its effects.
Tips to Orchardlsts.
The weather bureau bulletin treats the frost
prevention methods very thoroughly, and tho
pamphlet should be partlcularlv useful to anyone
who owns an orchard or who contemplates plant
ing one. First of all, the experts point out, thu
orchard owner should determine whether his crop
will pay the expense of protection; If It will not,
then lie had better move to a less erratic climate.
Certain trulls will. stand a lower temperature than
others, and tho experts furnish a temperuturu
chart to show this. Here It Is:

Charts which show In a gntphlc way how tho

reproduced. Theso have been prepared from
studies made In successful orchards and are tho
result of the best methods lu use in this country.
Overhead costs are discussed, as well as tho euro
of tho frost-fighting apparatus.
Records Should Be Kept.
Once an owner decides to fight .lack Frost for
his profit It Is most Important that he keep rec
ords of the buttles, so that he may refer to them
when the next skirmish threatens. Tho knowl
edge that n ten-mile wind will pi event frost when
the thermometer Is at -10 degrees F. at sunset
may apply to only one fruit farm, but It will save
that owner tho expense of lighting his files If lie
does know it. Records, If he keeps them, will tell
him this.
several bits of home-mnde apparatus will save
the frost fighter gootl sound dollars, and tho
pamphlet tells how these may bo made ami used.
The effect of soot from tho oil Humes upon tho
fruit blossoms Is made clear to tho reader In an
nccount of experiments conducted to determine
this problem. As a matter of fact, soot does not
hinder the pollination of fruit blossoms, nor does
It Injure them In any way.
From first to last, the United Stntes Depart
ment of Agrlculturo Farmers' Hullctln No. 101)0
