LINCOLN, Sept. IS. (Spcclal)-Secre-tary
J. R Duncan of the State Horticul
tural society has a different opinion of
the apple crop of Nebraska than that put
out by the government and also by the
Uurlington rron reports.
The government report places the apple
crop of the state at 1.6SO.O00 bushels while
the Burlington reports say there will b

r "
Jlr. Duncan only orchards that have been
well taken care of are going to produce
annlfi thla vmp and then will have onlr
about 40 par cent of the crop as compared
with other Tears.
Illinois ranker has practically destroyed
any chance for apples on trees that have
not been well taken care of.
Mr. Duncan says that the government
bases tts report on. the number of trets
counted at . the last census. The last
4 mnntvia hoji shown an enormous
loss of trees In the orchards of this
state, most of this being In the unesreo.
fii. nrrfcard . Mr. Duncan thinks1 that
the crop thla year will bo about 900,000
bushels and that it will be proaucea
mostly In the counties o f Burt. Dodge
-Wnxhlnirton. Douglas. Barpy, Saunders,
Cass. Otoe, Johnson, Nemaha, Fawnee
end Richardson, which will produce about
6.000 bushels.
The condition of the trees, made so by
,u. wr. wsa what prompted
apple growers at the state fair to send
a committee to the regent of the State
university with a proposition to appoint
r, practical apple grower, or one fully
acquainted with the conditions, to the
...ori hv the resignation of
v-rnf. Emmcrson. They fear that unless
ik. i. handled In an effective
manner that it will cause a heavy loss
to the fruit growers of the state.
