McBride, manager of the Illinois Fruit Growers' Exchange, largest marketers of fruits produced in southern Illinois. The Fruit Exchange is affiliated with the Illinois Agricultural Association. the state Farm Bureau organisation. McBride estimated that Illinois would hsureet a 24M.000 bushel peach crop this year aeeordhsg to prevaillag conditions This compares with a bushel crop Iswt year. "Peach trees came through last winter la excellent condition,'* Mc- Bridge saM. "and the bloom this spring was aa heavy aa aay ever seen. Frost damage waa slight so volume will be geSbrM throughout the southern Illinois region." Insects are leaa of a menace among fruit growers because ot the development In recent years of new Insecticides. The Illinois peach harvest, coming the first two to three weeks in August, follows the South Carolina crop which waa estimated at six said on-half million bushels Feb. 1, but which has since suffered an M per cent cat because of frost dantage. Weather amy yet affect the quality of the Illinois crop but constant "emphasis on quality over the put few years among Illinois growere should . make Illinoia peaches this year the beiil ever marketed, according to McBride.
