Promises Nearly Average Yield in the State as a Whole.
Schedule was announced by the May crop report state of Michigan, which said: "The spraying of trees has greatly increased this season," and received further confirmation from the correspondents quoted in the report, one of whom stated:
"Prospects for a full fruit crop in Barry county are good; spraying is more general than in former years and more interest is taken in fruit growing. There are more trees planted this spring than usual."
Not all of the fruit trees passed thru the storm without suffering injury, but reports from various counties indicated that the damage was so distributed that nearly an average crop of all fruits will be harvested, even tho a total loss of certain fruits appears likely here and there.
