ORCHARD YIELDS WELL
DESPITE SPRING FROSTS
Twenty-five hundred bushels of ap
ples in the Horticultural Department
orchard suivivcd the early frosts of
the last apple season, duo to the intel
ligent and constant attention slvon them
this year by the workers of the Depart
ment This is a very good yield for
the season Just past, since the apple
crop throughout the state is small. In
deed, the Department
considers itself-fortunatc to have had
any crop at all (Last >ear the orchard
produced four thousand bushels, and
a still larger crop is anticipated for
1922, since a young orchard which
has not yet borne apples will come into
bearing next season
It is interesting to note that In the
orchard* controlled by the Horticultur
al. Department there ore seventy vari
eties of apples This year the Yorks
constituted the main bulk of the crop,
with a yield of sixteen hundred bush
els Baldwins came next with four
hundred bushels, while two hundred
and fifty bushels of Stamens and fifty
Ail
the other varieties gave. smaller am
ounts than fifty bushels
The Horticultural Department has
two main objects in view for cultivat
ing so many varieties of apples In the
College orchard. In the first place,
one of the phases of experimental work
In fruit.is the testing of all varieties
with an eye to learning their merits
for Pennsylvania conditions Also, ''a
phase.of the teaching of Pomology is
to acquaint the students with a large
number of kinds of apples
