LINCOLN, Neb., April 29.-(Spcclal.) Tho nearness to a killing frost In recent days has given Secretary Duncan ot the Stato Horticultural society a chiinco to determlno Just how much cold different fruits In Nebraska can stand without damage. Ho has prepared the following statement on danger from trost; Experiment have been carried on by different experiment stations and Indi viduals to determine how much frost fruit buds ami flowers will withstand 'it different stages of development. Also the differences of hardiness of ultferciit va rieties of sumo kind of fruits. Some va rieties are found to be much more sus ceptible to Inlury at the same stOKc of development than other varieties. Thcro is a difference or opinion as to uio nan wr point. .Results show that each fruit has a different degree of hardiness. Olienlng buds. newly opened blossoms, or newly set fruit of peaches In a ma jority of cases showed llttlo or no injury at 29 degrees whllo ono degree colder killed a large per cent of them. Twcnty- nlno degrees was tne. danger point ami any temperature below this was liable to do more or less Injury, depending on how long It remained at this temperature. Also the weather Immediately preceding a frost has much to do with the relative amount of frost tho plants can stand, A few days of warm weather with soil filled with moisture will cause the plants to make a rapid growth and fill tho cells of tho plant with thin watery protoplasm. During cold weather, which has retarded tho growth, the cells aro filled with con centrated cell sap. In the first case tho plants could not stand as low a tempera ture as in the second insiauce. Twenty-nine degrees Is tho danger point with peaches and hny temperature below this is liablo to do more or less Injury, depending on how long It ro- malns at. this temperature. Taken as a Whole, apples and pears seem to be more resistant than peaches and plums. Eu ropean and native plums aro slightly hardier than Japaneso plums, with aprl' cots least resistant of all. The longer the killing frost remains nnd the nearer It Is to sunrise the greater umount of dumagc should be expected. If tho killing temperature occurred near sunriso and tho morning was clear tho Injury would bo groat. This Is owing to tho rapid change of moisturo In cells of tho plant from Ice back to water. Tills sudden chango would tend to injure and break down the coll walls. If the kill ing temperatures occurred In tllo early part of tho night and the temperature gradually arose until before sunrise It was above the danger point the Injury would be small. "In the city or whero water Is avall abuc and plants ae few In number much Injury can bo avoided by sprinkling tho plants In tho morning whllo still fron ntlil Imfarn llmv hal. ll.at.A.1 ..ill " lleet llaUrrn Worried. Deputy Stato Auditor Minor returned this morning from Scott's Bluff eountr. his old home, lie says an abundnnce of rain there ha mado everything look fa vorable for nn Immense crop. Raisers of sugar beets are agitated over tho future on account of the lower prices of fered Tor beets caused by the lower tarlfr on sugar. It Is estimated one crop more Is about all the beet sugar people can afford to handle, as the tariff will bo romplotely taken off after two more years. New machinery which has beon Invented for topping nnd otherwise handling the beets will do away with considerable tabor and may cut down the cost of growing so that tho farmers may be able still to ralso beets and ninko a profit.
