APPLE CROP prospects in the 26 commercial counties are for an apple crop of 1.500.000 bushels. This is 34 per cent below a year ago and 51 per cent below the average. The situation throughout the state is highly variable. Southern Illinois growers are expecting a very light crop, at besj;, while Calhoun county and western ^Illinois orchardists anticipate raarly a half crop. Northern Illinois growers are looking, forward to one of their best years. In the southern part of the state (Golden Delicious will probably be the best variety. Very little insect damage has taken place thus far, but there is a considerable amount of scab due to cool- wet weather. Nearly 14,000 pegpons were killed in weekend traffic accidents last year.
