Many Blooms Not Harmed by Frost in Iowa
Des Moines May 10 R B Herrick secretary of the Iowa Horticultural society reports that Iowa fruit generally escaped serious frost damage over the past two nights. Temperatures stayed above freezing in several counties, wind was common and air dry, blooms not fully out in many areas, suggesting a favorable offset to the cold. Continuous remarks from growers note that the bloom was heavy and some buds may drop, but overall prospects appear modestly improved.
