Average Apple
Crop Forecast
Luzerne County Crop
Better Than Average
A crop of 6,000,000 bushels of
apples from Pennsylvania commer-
cial orchards is forecast in initial
estimates by the Federal-State Crop
Reporting Service, State Department
of Agriculture.
If this amount is realized the 1955
crop will compare with last year’s
harvest of 6,020,000 bushels and the
10-year 1944-53 average of 6,008,000
bushels, the Department said.
Also based on July 1 surveys, the
Pennsylvania peach crop is estimat-
ed at 2,320,000 bushels, 230,000
under last year, but 181,000 better
than average.
First estimates on the Pennsyl-
vania grape crop show production
of 25,000 tons, 1,600 less than last
year. The 10-year average for grapes
is 17,250 tons.
There was no change from June
1 pear forecast of 175,000 bushels,
10,000 under 1954 production.
The July 1 estimate for red sour
cherries at 11,000 tons equals the
all-time record set in 1951. Last
year’s production was 9,500 tons
with the 10-year average at 7,100
tons.
Reporting on the apple situation
the Department said that in the
Adams-Franklin-York fruit belt the
prospects are nearly as good as last
year. Set was generally good on all
varieties, but [Stayman and York
probably will not bear as heavy as
Local People Enjoy
Fishing In Canada
Mr. and Mrs. Wrighter Benscoter,
Beckie Cragle, of Hunlock Creek,
R. D.,, and Mr. and Mrs. Leonard
Harvey of Dallas spent a week fish-
ing at Lake Sharron in the Chibou-
gamau Reservation, Quebec, Can-
ada. In all they travelled 2054
miles. They visited the modern vil-
lage of Chibougamau at the end of
the road; also the copper and gold
mines.
Last Tuesday evening, they wit-
nessed a small hurricane which up-
rooted trees. Waves on the Jake
were high and they almost lost their
boats and motors which were. tied
to the dock.
Another exciting event was shoot-
ing the rapids in a boat. They stop-
in 1954, the survey showed. The
crop is clean and growing well. Early
June rains were sufficient to aid
normal growth. There was some hail
damage June 11 ahd 12. Hot weath-
er of early July caused some sun
scaled on a few varieties.
In the Berks-Lehigh area pros-
pects for apples are good but de-
clined somewhat following hail dam-
age of late May and early June.
Damage to fruit in a few orchards
ran as much as 100 per cent, it was
said. Fruit is sizing nicely.
Apple prospects in the northwest
are reported to be better than last
year.
An excellent quality crop of peach-
es was in prospect on July 1 with
fruit sixing well, generally clean and
free of insect or disease damage.
Some hail damage was reported
from loeal areas.

the price when they paid the bill.
The error was probably due to
Leonard’s French.
Starting home with their limit of
fish (one of which Harvey landed
weighed 15 lb. and was 42 inches
long) they came through the Laur-
entide reservation where they were
able to take a close up picture of
a moose eating in the river.
