This is a beautiful day. The air was crisp thih morning and the sun waj bright and it is just the kind of weather we ought to have lor a month Last year we were badly treated with a very deceptive March. There was not a bad day in the month and trees were leafed out and fruit in blossom when the freezing of April and 'May killed the fruit and left the trees bar ren of leaves. We need a real, oldfashioned March that blows and freezes and makes'faces from start to finish and then with a fairly decent April we may have a fruit crop once again.
