From investigations and observa
tions of experts it has been conclud
ed that the apple crop as estimated

cent of the last year crop.
W. B. Banning, speaking about
the investigations said that the
causes for the reducted expected re
turns an excessive yield last year,
this having devitalized to a certain
extent the vigor of the trees, and
also the ravages of the grasshoppers
who ate buds in the embryo last
vear, leaving less buds as demon
strated by fewer blossoms, also by
ravages of worms which have infest
ed the trees. His observations have
been in his own orchards as well as
that of the state, for both are in
the vicinity of Union.
