Bumper crops of peaches are be- ing picked this season in Ontario and British Columbia. A prelimin- ary estimate places the 1939 crop in Ontario at more than 650,000 bush- els, a 15 per cent. increase over the 1938 crop, which was a good one, and in British Columibia at 143,000 bushels, 10 per cent. more than last year. This year’s peaches, now on the market, are of the very highest quality, for conditions have been particularly favorable for producing large, luscious fruit. VOL.
