On the whole, the season may be considered the most satisfactory to 

 -date, and engenders the hope that in the near future the export of fruit 

 may take its place as one of the leading industries of our State. 



The prospects for a good market next sea.son are very bright, as reports 

 just received show that the blossoms of the incoming American crop have 

 been, to a large extent, destroyed by some late frosts. Therefore, should 

 the local crop be prolific, the next season should prove even better than 

 the one just ended.
