Heavy Losses To Early Fruit.
Littie Rock, April 10.—De
spite losses to budding fruit
trees that aggregate several
hundred thousands of dollars,
orchardists of western and
northwestern Arkansas today,
with the predicted rise in tem
perature, probably will look with
renewed hope for a fair crop of
the later ripening varieties of
peaches, plums, pears and cher
ries.
Wednesday and Thursday
nights the lowest temperatures
and heaviest frost in 22 years
were recorded in the fuit belt.
Hundreds of acres of peach trees,
plum trees, cherry trees and
pear trees were in lull bloom m
the belt north of the Ozarks and
the crops were destroyed. Ap
ples also were hard hit, but it is
reported that only the early va
rieties suffered. Also there are
many acres of later ripening va
rieties of peaches and the other
fruits that were hurt. However,
it is hoped with favorable weath
er for the next few days a fair
crop will be produced.
The cold and frost worked the
greatest havoc north of the
Ozarks, where the large orchards
in an unprotected section were
covered with the dew which
froze with the first drop of tem
perature Wednesday night. In
the mountain orchards it is re
ported that a wind of high ve
locity saved many buds as the
drops of moisture were blown off
before the temperature descend
ed to the freezing point.
South of the mountain belt
the damage reported comes from
only those orchards situated in
valleys and lowlands. These or
chards caught the falling mois
ture from the heights and pro
tected from any wind, held the
! moisture until the declining mer
| cury turned the drops to ice.
