Apples and Cranberries. 



The apple crop is very uneven, some correspondents re- 

 porting fine crops and others that there are absolutely no 

 apples. For the State at large the crop is proljably less 

 than average, though where there is any fruit at all the crop 

 is fine. 'Apples are generally of large size and fine color 

 and the crop is somewhat earlier than usual. Late frosts in 

 the spring are given as the cause of the uneven condition of 

 the crop. 



Cranberries are not reported as more than half a crop in 

 any section of commercial importance, and in man}- towns 

 even a smaller proportion is reported. From Barnstable 

 County comes the report that many bogs are not worth 

 picking.
