PEACH CROP TO
BE 20 PCT. SHORT
*
Outlook Now For 8,400 Cars,
Central of Georgia Official
Sayc
MACON, April 6—Georgia’s peach
crop will be 20 per cent under the
record of last year, according to a
survey made by officials of the Cen
tral of Georgia railroad and in the
hands of W. E. Stewart, assistant
general freight agent of the line, 1
the Telegraph today states.
Last year’s crop totalled 10,500
cars. A 20 per cent decline would
that the total shipment will be
O|roximately 8.400 cars.
estimate is not the final one
for the season, for frost or other
damage may come. Mr. Stewart said
that the Central of Georgia’s final
figures will be compiled on April 20,
which should come close to the actual
production. Estimates of other years
have been close to the actual ship
ments.
The biggest decline in production
this year will come in Elbertas. These
wcie heaviest last year. There also
wil Ibe a decrease in the production
of Georgia Belles and Kiley Belles.
"We find that the fruit is going to
be of fine quality this year,” said
.Mr. Stewart. "The trees are in first
class condition. Growers are con
vinced by last year’s experience that
scientific prevention measures are
absolutely necessary for a successful
crop, and they are proceeding ac
cordingly this year. All of the in
structions of the government and
state laboratory at Eort Valley as to
spraying and the general care of the
crop are being carried out in detail.”
The survey made by the Central of
Georgia railroad shows that the Mon
ticello district is the only one that
suffered serious frost and cold weath
er damage. Half of the crop around
Monticello, where the industry is be
et ming a big enterprise, has been
destroyed by cold weather.

RYLANvER THEATERj
Mrs. Irene Castle famous dametise !
and actress, appears again on the i
silver sheet for the first time in more
than two years, in the picture called
“French Heels,” which comes to the
Rylander theater Friday for one. day
only.
It. is difficult to estimate in ad
vance the welcome that local theater ,
i patrons will accord this celebrated :
' and popular artiste. Suffice to say ,
that the Rylander theater will no
[ doubt be crowded to capacity. In
| her first appearance in this city Mrs. j
I Castle has always been favored with
capacity audiences whether appear,
ing in person or on the screen, and j
it is safe to assume, therefore, that ;
“French Reels,” will draw record I
houses at each performance.
I The storv of “French Ilceli” in-
I l.ioduces Mrs. Castle in a series of
! whirlwind events. She dances, riders
swims and wear, a number i,f stun
i ning wraps ami gowns that will no
i doubt be the envy of every woman
lin town. The action of the story
. takes place in New York City and]
j in the lumber camps of the far North. |
It is a modern story, written espe- i
’ daily for the star, and is said to pro- I
\ vide her with some of the best op- j
' portunities of her career.
