Officials See Business Improving" Officials of the Cumberland Valley telephone company, announced today that statistics compiled during a twe weeks' service survey in nine Pennsylvania counties showed that business conditions throughout the state have been steadily irn- proving. The survey was conducted Adams, Bedford, Blair, Cumberland, Franklin, Fulton, Juniata, Mimin and Perry counties by em- ployes of the Cumberland Valley telephone company "and" associated companies. As proof of the improved conditions telephone company officials pointed out that 1214 new telephones were sold in the past two weeks in the territory in which the survey was made.

The telephones sold in this period represent a 63 per cent increase of owned stations in the territory served by the Cumberland Valley and associated companies. Approximately 20,000 telephone subscribers in the nine counties were interviewed by telephone company employes. A large percentage of subscribers interviewed ordered ex-, tension telephones to be installed, in their homes and business places. The employes making the survey inspected telephone instruments of. all subscribers whom they visited.

Over 2,258 persons in the Hanover district were interviewed by local telephone company H. W. Hart, district manager, announced that 83 telephones were sold in the community. Plant men under C. R.

Anthony are now busy installing the phones. The stations sold in the past two weeks in that community represents 3.5 per cent increase, Mr. Hart said Cumberland Valley telephone company representatives including operators, stenographers and trouble $900 'TO COLLEGE Sums of $500 each were bequeathed to Elizabethtown college and the trturtees of the Wends' Grove meeting house 'in the will of Eliza Ann Warren, late of.

Beautiful Sights To Visitors Adams county's leading commercial peach orchards are'in bloom, and if high winds subside and not too much rain falls before the end of the week, the blossoms should prove a-magnet to attract thousands of motorists through this county's fruit belt over the next week-end. Unusually warm weather of the ast several weeks has hastened the jloom, especially the low-lying orchards. As a general rule, the beautiful peach and white blossoms do net remain on the trees more than three or four days after they reach maturity. Much depends on the weather- Now in Full Bloom C. Rice, Biglerville, whose 000-stree orchard along the Bigler- yJile road, north of Gettysburg, is one of the show places, first in the spring when the trees are in bloom and again when the luscious fruit ripens in the summer, today said his orchard was-Jiow in full bloom.

-He said the blossoms might last until the 5 week-end if favorable weather prevails, although he added that he noticed that today's high winds were causing some of the ito drop, some of the orchards in the northern end of the county, lying in higher ground than the Rice orchard, the blossoms are not quite so far advanced as elsewhere, but, these are expected to be open full by Sunday. Blossoms Heavy According to Mr. Rice and other peach growers, the winter was unusually favorable for peach 1 ''trees with the result that the set of blossoms is exceptionally heavy. Last year, it is recalled, trees were damaged by winter freeze which reduced the set of the bloom and consequently cut down the crop. Peach growers say that barring unforeseen contingencies the crop will be larger this year'than in recent years.

The weather has been favorable for pollinization so aiSd unless a prolonged wet spell sets iri or the weather turns unseasonably cold the crop should be a banner one, the growers assert. Among the leading commercial varieties of peaches grown in Adams county are Elberta, Hale and Belle of Georgia. Some of the leading peach orchards, besides that of Mr Rice, are the Blue Raff- enspergers, the Rice, Huber and The forest fire situation throughout Pennsylvania was described as "most critical" 1 in a warning issued by. Secretary Lewis E. Staley, of the department of forests and waters.
