Here if All conditions Are favourable occur glorious sunsets the Telegraph pro seats a pen picture of one the Cen Ter of to solar system appeared like of fire and gradually Sank to the horizon. Above and on each aide the Clouds appeared in fearful maj est the exquisite formations Ever changing set off by exquisite colouring fixed the Eye of re observer and rendered speech seemingly a sacrilege. The Golden disc swung lower and lower. Meantime the streaks of flame color swept slowly across the firmament. Gradually another Shade appeared and was gently blended with the original color. Nearer and nearer seemed the Fleecy White Clouds that diverted ones gaze from the vivid colouring Large Clouds Small Clouds and cloudless flecked the sky for a moment increasing and Dimin Ishing in size until it became impossible to locate them. The Sun passed behind a transitory vision of fleece Ness and As suddenly emerged casting a Long line of Bright Light on the water. It looked like Fine spun Gold and its brilliancy dazzled the beholder one time especially was this of feet seen. It crossed Lake Michigan and extending across a stretch of Sand fell upon the faces of a group of Kalamazoo people. Seated As they were upon the Shore of one of the great lakes and literally baptized by a Light from of High it seemed As though a transfiguration would occur from the flood of that heavenly Light. The View of the far away Clouds seemed like a glimpse of the beyond. There was a realization for a moment at least of the piercing of the veil of time. There surely was a glimpse of the Paradise Isles a sight of the better country. A solution of the problems of Earth did not ensue but for that single blessed moment Penetra Ticu by human sight into the infinite realms seemed a reality. Slowly descended the Globe of Vermilion and Sank its supernal Beauty and glory into Lake Michigan. Silent sat the Kalamazoo Friend As a a darkness fell from the wings of quietly they ascended the Steps Lee Adang into the grounds common to the Kalamazoo and Oak Park reporters. A soul great fruit Belt enormous crop. Golden opportunities in this very locality if peach growing coot Nues to be As profitable in the a Utu to As in the past.

Two can give of the magnificent crop thro out this great Section of fruit land does not begin to convey an idea of the vastness of the product As com boats run daily from South Haven two from Glenn pier two from pier Cove and two from Saugatuck with ,.a combined capacity of Over 200,000 pared Toan Overland trip through., a _ a baskets per Day. Commission houses the entire length of this extensive fruit Belt and a personal inspection of the Orchards As it has been the privilege within the last few Days for the Gazette reporter to enjoy. On All sides As we ride through the country we see peache3. It is peaches peaches peaches peaches every where. The crop will exceed that of any previous year As May be shown by the fact that the various transportation companies have reported already nearly three times the Arne to shipped As at the same time any previous year. The Busy Little town of Fennville which holds the championship for shipping the largest number of packages per Day of any Point in the state has on several occasions sent oat three carloads per Day this year of Early clings ones As against one car a Day in previous years. Already Over one Hundred thousand baskets have been shipped from Fennville alone and it must be remembered that the Harvest has Only begun Only the earlier clings or the inferior grades have been marketed. None of the better grades which constitute the main crop have yet ripened. Frice9 thus far have run Low but the growers have reason to Hope that with the ripening of the better varieties of yellow peaches prices will be correspondingly improved. It was the pleasure of the Gazette to visit personally Many of the Large Orchards in this Vicinity and to obtain facts concerning the estimated crop of owners As they were found along fhe Busy roads leading to the various shipping Points or busily engaged in the Orchard or the packing House. It will be impossible to give the names of All the growers or their estimate of crop grown but that the Gazette readers May get some a Dea of the growth and vastness of the interest we append the names of a few of the principal growers in this county. I. E. E. Brunson the popular physician who has enlarged acis peach Orchard As he has his a a practice a ins an estimated crop of fifty thousand baskets. De Hawley who but a Short time ago was a hustling Schoolboy is now a hustling fruit grower and will handle 500,000 baskets of peaches besides other fruit including As no Small item 500 bushels of plums of leading varieties and de. Í9 inst a Little proud of that Plum Orchard too. Further South in Casco Large growers Are numerous. Barden Bros Are Young and enthusiastic growers and show finely kept Orchards which a feb evidence of 50,000 or 60,000 baskets. The Mcdowell Orchards of a eat Casco will produce Over 40,000 baskets. The Carter Orchards will give a like am to. Casco probably contains More Well kept Orchards and enterprising growers than any other township in the fruit Belt and the estimates above Given Are As but a drop in the bucket compared with the crop of the township. Cain amp son have a Young Orchard that will produce 25,000 baskets of peaches. Fowler Bros have an estimated crop of 45.000 Lias ets. John Mackey the popular hardware in has a flirt farm also and will grow nearly 15,000 baskets besides other Choice fruits including the finest of apples. Chesebro Bros have estimated their fruit crop at $5,000. L. A Monroe Tho banker is also at tails. A Small fire and it a big Blunder caused the Stock to be cold to the insurance company Aud we got a slice of it. Wrapp3rs that have not b9en made up two weeks. Boxes damaged by water but goods perfect. For one week commencing in Chicago and Milwaukee Costi Tut the principal Market for the crop and they Are Well represented throughout the fruit Belt by their solicitors who Are As thick As bees on dandelions going about among the growers eager for their share of the luscious fruit that the fruit Industry represents a Large income is evident from the fact that the checks paid the grower.? throughout the season at a few Points will approximate As follows cange3 $50,000, Glenn $150,000, Saugatuck $200,000, Fennville $300,000, South Haven $500,000, but a Stuefe Are but a few of the Points at which checks Are paid lest we arouse the envy of our less favored Farmers in the inter or of the state we will not t numerate further i must be borne in mind however that there Are great expenses for packages and for help Etc., Etc All of which helps to Lessen the net receipts also the number of growers including the smaller ones is legion and the above estimates cover Oyer a wide territory. Many people have a wrong idea regarding the production of fruit. This business has its hardships As Well As any other. Thorough cultivation and care in pruning and thinning and picking and packing and marketing the fruit represents an endless amount of hard labor and expense. Neither is it True As Many suppose that the fruit Region affords an abundance of work for All who May throng to its Interior for although Many hundreds Are employed through the fruit season it is difficult to obtain competent help As the fruit picking and packing is almost a science and Many people who seek employment at this labor Are consequently unable to hold their jobs and tramps abound in t is As. In other localities. In some Ideal ties Orchards Are suffering from the peach disc ase the a a yellows a but the state Law a emphatic on this question and commissioners Are on the Alert to so Spross the disease which i would prove disastrous if neglected. In reply Toa question by the Gazette j on this subject capt. A. A Johnson j of g. Nge. Who is a close observer and a careful Pruner said a a i have taken up Only two Trees out of a thousand this year for the yellows and o the re who have been equally cautious have done As on recount of the Long continued dry weather Many owners Are preparing to irrigate. This is a new problem which must be solved varihu3 methods will be employed. Lake Michigan will be used by some who Are in its immediate Vicinity and by others different schemes will lie effected. Thus we see that although fruit growing is a great Industry and a bilious reports Are often Given and great gains Are truly made it is not so easy As some suppose and it fully substantiates the truth of the statement that a what is Worth doing at All is Worth doing Well a and that eternal vigilance in fruit culture is the Price of peaches.

An important item in connection with the peach growing As observed by the Gazette is the set that in the Vicinity of Kibbie a Small station East of South Haven about five Miles a territory that had Long been considered As not suitable to peach growing Large and productive Orchards have grown up.
