BUMPER FRUIT CROP IS PREDICTED
The remainder of the week will
be a "croocUil period" for the coun-
ty's 'fruit crop according to A. F.
Houston county farm agent.
If weather conditions are favorable
during the remainder of the week
that is until after Easter the
chances are Grady county will pro-
duce a bumper fruit crop Mr. Hous-
ton says. Declaring that Easter
comes in the "light of the moon"
which lessens the chances of a severe
storm the farm agent views the situ-
ation optimistically. Old timers ac-
cording to Mr. Houston say that the
county never fails to produce an
abundance of . fruit when Easter
comes in the light of the moon.
Some declare that the cold spell last
Monday was the "Easter storm."
Only the . apricots have failed to
survive the recent inclement weather
according to reports reaching the
county farm agent's office. The first

Washington April 13.-Itallroads
of tho country are getting back to
day of prosperity figures as to
their earnings during February pre
sented to tho Interstate commerce
ojnmlsslon showed today.
iHirlng that month thn railroads
earned 4.S7 per cent on their ten
tatlvo valuations tho highest rate
of return In moro than 15 months.
Tho Improvement Is shown In strlk
lug fashion by tho report that this
February tha roads mudo a profit
of It'.Tfil'.Oou as compared with a
deficit of .-.17fiSC7 In February
19:' 1.
Tho fl mi res are shrniricnnt ho-
I cause they Indlcnln railroad earn
ings are Increasing so Hint tho In-
terstate commerce commission will
fbo justified In making rate reduc
tions In tho near future. If tho up-
ward trend of earnings continues.
Commission Now Free.
Karnlngs during February $14-
884000 under the amount necessary
to have enabled the carriers to
mako a six per cent return nit
Ksch-Cummlns law provision which
recently expired stating that rates
were to be fixed so that tho rouds
would as near as possible earn a
six por cent return.
The Interstate commerco commis-
sion Is now free to base railroad
rates on nny rate of return that It
see fit but it is understood that
It docs not desire to bring tho gen-
eral level much below six per cent.
During February the roads In
tho eastern district earned consider
ably In excess of the bIx per cent
return the average being 7.17 per
cent.' The net operating Income In
this district was f 29.'3."800 as com-
pared with a deficit of $7fi27502 In
February 1921.
The roads In the other districts
however wore not so prosperous.
Tho lines in tho south earned 3.98
por cent. In the western district
where the agricultural depression
has been acute the rate of return
was only 2.46 per cent.
The report reveals that the roads
are beginning to effect economies
which are aiding them in recovering
from the disarrangement during the
war. Whllo operating revenues dur-
ing February were virtually the
same as for February 1921 operat-
ing expenses were reduced 13.6 por
cent.
During tho month 53 roads report-
ed operating deficits of . which 31
were in the west 18 in the east and
six in the south.
Washington April 13. Tho Mis-
souri Pacific Railroad company to-
day was granted authority by the
interstate commerce commission to
issue $18000000 first and refunding
mortgage six per cent gold bonds.
The proceeds are to be used to re-
tire $13641000 first and refunding
mortgage five per cent gold bonds
maturing January 1 1923 and to re-
imburse the treasury for exnendi-
tures in additions and betterments.
ones have pdt a finish to the crop
Mr. Houston says.
While many of the buds and young
fruit were killed by the wind and
cold weather there were plenty left
to produce an abundance of peaches
pears plums .and apples. "It would
have been necessary to have thinned
them anyhow to save the trees"
said one fruit grower yesterday. "So
the recent cold spell did no serious
damage to the fruit crop. Indica-
tions now are we will have plenty."
The windstorm which swept over
the county last Saturday left in Its
wake many damaged orchards ac-
cording to reports received by the
county agent. "Many trees were
loosened around the roots and this
is very injurious to a fruit tree In
this season of the year" Mr. Hous-
ton said. "Many trees were blown
down while limbs were stripped from
others.. The damage was really
heavy"

of the Irish labor party to bear up-
on the rebels and prevent the at-
tempted overthrow of the free state
will be made.

Valera would not be recognized by
his forces.
The former "president of the Irish
ropublic" may find himself repudi-
ated if he makes an agreement not
to fight Collins' government O'Con-
nor intimated. He added that any
agreement reached today might if
necessary be submitted to a special
convention of the Irish republican
army.
ThU marked the first definite
break between rebel extremists and
De Valera and Brugha' whose au-
thority hitherto has been recog-
nized. .

Indianapolis April 13. The Amer

port to big navy advocates In con
gress.
Kx-servlco men consider efforts to
reduce the navy to 07000 men "dis
astrous and a threat to tho national
safety" Hanford MacNIder national
commander wired President Hard
ing.
Influences in congress are trying
to make tho United States second
rate naval power MacNIder charged.
"This would threaten our position
in international affairs politically
and commercially weaken our maln-
tcnunco of the Monroe Uoctrino and
other policies particularly American
and might render our voice impotent
when future suggestions for further
reductions in international naval
strength are brought forward" his
telegram declared.
"The snfety of our whole country
depends first of all upon the navy.
It is our first line of national defense
in time ot war and must be kept
ready as an impregnable bulwark be-
hind which complete national mobili-
zation can be effected.
"That officers and men muBt be
trained for war in time of peace was
shown in the late war when we spent
the first year of our participation ex
panding and training our navy for
action due to its unreadiness."
