PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term, as we witnessed last year. You also can help to manage some
of the risks of investing through diversification. A stock fund is already
diversified because it invests in many issues. You can diversify even
further by placing some of your money in several different types of stock
funds or in other investment categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. A fund's total
return includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells stocks that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1995 PAST 6 PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
MONTHS YEAR YEARS FUND
Utilities Fund 11.28% 9.59% 78.93% 150.08%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 21.06% 26.11% 83.44% 193.99%
S&P Utilities Index 9.32% 14.43% 61.28% 153.67%
Average Utility Fund 8.88% 10.06% 60.21% n/a
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years, or
since the fund started on November 27, 1987. For example, if you invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the
performance of the Standard & Poor's Composite Index of 500 Stocks, a
common proxy for the U.S. stock market, or the Standard & Poor's Utilities
Index, an unmanaged index of 48 gas, electric, and telephone stocks. To
measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can
compare it to the average utility fund, which reflects the performance of
85 utility funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical
Services over the past six months. All three benchmarks include reinvested
dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Utilities Fund on November 27, 1987, when the fund started. As the chart
shows, by July 31, 1995, the value of your investment would have grown to
$25,008 - a 150.08% increase on your initial investment. For comparison,
look at how both the S&P 500 and the S&P Utilities Index did over the same
period. With dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment in the S&P
500 would have grown to $29,399 - a 193.99% increase. A $10,000 investment
in the S&P Utilities Index would have grown to $25,367 - a 153.67%
increase.

UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow. The
stock market, for example, has a history of growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In turn, the share price and return of a fund
that invests in stocks will vary. That means if you sell your shares during
a market downturn, you might lose money. But if you can ride out the
market's ups and downs, you may have a gain.
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with John Muresianu, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Utilities
Fund
Q. JOHN, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
A. The fund's total return for the six months ended July 31, 1995, was
11.28%, compared to 8.88% for the average utility fund tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services, and 9.32% for the Standard and Poor's Utilities Index.
For the 12 months ended July 31, 1995, the fund returned 9.59%, compared to
10.06% for the average utility fund and 14.43% for the S&P Utilities Index.
Q. LOOKING AT THE SIX-MONTH NUMBERS, WHY DID THE FUND BEAT THE AVERAGE FUND
AND THE INDEX?
A. It comes down to relative weighting in telephone utility stocks. These
stocks performed better than the others in the utilities sector, and the
fund had more of a stake in them than the average fund and the index. At
the same time, I should note that I seek to diversify the portfolio by
investing in electric and natural gas utilities as well.
Q. WHAT HAS THE INVESTING ENVIRONMENT BEEN LIKE?
A. Broadly speaking, we've seen a strong six months, with the overall
market rising more than 20%. That was driven by a combination of two
factors. First, corporate earnings continued to be strong, especially in
the technology sector. Second, bond yields dropped significantly - and bond
prices rose - as it became apparent that the economy was slowing. Bond
investors often perceive a slower economy to be a positive backdrop,
because it usually is an environment in which inflation does not threaten
to erode the value of a bond's fixed-income payments. In general, the
lower bond yields, the higher the stock market, as competition from bonds
diminishes. In addition, with lower bond yields, investors are willing to
pay higher valuations - yardsticks such as price-to-earnings ratios - for
corporate earnings. Utility stocks, in particular, more closely track bonds
in price terms than the market, in general, because of their relatively
high yields and slow growth. Like bonds, utility stocks did well over the
past six months, but not as well as the broad market.
Q. HOW HAVE THE THREE MAJOR SEGMENTS OF THE UTILITIES SECTOR - GAS,
ELECTRIC AND TELEPHONE - PERFORMED?
A. In general, natural gas utility stocks started out well, and then
stumbled. They performed well initially due to the combination of lower
bond yields and the expectation that natural gas prices would rebound from
low levels seen at the beginning of the period. When gas prices did not
recover - and fell further - gas stocks suffered. Electrics did well
initially, because - historically the highest yielding of the three
industries - they are seen as most sensitive to what's going on in the bond
market. When that market gave back some of its gains toward the end of the
period, electrics were quick to do so as well. In addition, concerns about
deregulation and competition can surface from time to time, leading to some
volatility. The same is true for telephone utility stocks, which were
volatile over the period, but ended up performing better than the other
sectors.
Q. YOU'VE CONTINUED TO FOCUS MOST OF THE FUND ON TELEPHONE STOCKS . . .
A. Right. Currently, it appears that the move in the utilities sector is
toward deregulation and competition. Deregulation will bring price
competition to every local monopoly, whether it's an electric, gas or phone
utility. What I think telephone stocks have that electrics and gas don't
have is some growth potential to offset price erosion in the core business.
Cellular service is one area that can provide growth potential.
Q. YOU'VE REDUCED THE FUND'S CASH AND SHORT-TERM POSITION FROM 21.5% AS OF
JANUARY 31, 1995, TO 3.1% AT THE END OF THE PERIOD. WHY IS THAT?
A. I invested the fund more fully for two reasons. First, the economy was
slowing, with a potential for declining interest rates, providing more
opportunity for utilities to post positive returns. Second, I always invest
on a stock-by-stock basis, and I found more individual opportunities to buy
attractive stocks.
Q. WHAT STOCKS HAVE PROVIDED STRONG PERFORMANCE FOR THE FUND?
A. ENSERCH, a gas utility, broadly speaking, benefited from the
anticipation of a dramatic rise in oil production in the Gulf of Mexico,
which should lead to a significant increase in cash flow. Williams
Companies, an interstate gas pipeline company with an interest in
telecommunications, posted strong performance as its acquisition of Transco
last year was seen in a more favorable light by investors. Earnings growth
drove strong performance by several telephone companies, including
Ameritech, SBC Communications and U.S. West.
Q. AND WHICH STOCKS DIDN'T DO AS WELL AS YOU WOULD HAVE LIKED?
A. Disappointing earnings caused by a difficult regulatory environment hurt
Pacific Telesis. Regulators set a high productivity hurdle for the company,
and assumed a higher demand response that didn't materialize when the
company lowered its rates. The low level of earnings raised the specter of
a dividend reduction. El Paso Natural Gas posted disappointing earnings
caused by weak natural gas prices and unusually strong hydro-power
conditions in California that took away market share. And Niagara Mohawk
was hurt by fears that some of its high-priced contracts would be at risk
if deregulation were pursued in New York.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK?
A. It's very uncertain where the market will go from here. On the one hand,
it appears to me that valuations in the market are at historically high
levels and profit margins are near the historical highs seen in the 1960s.
That might lead one to think a correction is in the cards. On the other
hand, it appears inflation is at 30-year lows and corporate earnings
continue to surprise on the upside, as companies slash costs and benefit
from the relatively weak dollar. So the market could surprise everyone
again and go up another 20%; we could stay right about where we are right
now; or it could go down. Given this uncertainty, I'm focusing on adding
value one company at a time, and having big-picture considerations weigh
less in determining how I position the portfolio.

JOHN MURESIANU ON
DEREGULATION IN THE
TELECOMMUNICATIONS INDUSTRY:
"Right after the end of the
period, Congress started
discussing the deregulation of
the telecommunications
industry. Clearly, the type of
legislation that comes out of
the debate will have an impact
on telephone utilities. It's very
difficult to predict what
legislators will come up with.
At the moment, it appears that
local telephone providers will
benefit most from the
outcome - helped by entry
into the lucrative long
distance business - but
that outlook has switched
from positive to negative quite
a few times over the past
year.
"Once a bill comes out of
conference committee - and
a lot depends on whether the
president signs the new
legislation or not - we'll be
able to estimate the effects
better. The key question for
local telephone companies
and long distance providers is
whether they'll be able to get
into each other's business or
not. And the sequencing of
changes is crucial, too. For
example, if long distance
providers can enter local
provider markets before local
companies can get into the
long distance business, long
distance companies would
have the advantage.
"At this point, it's too hard to
say what will happen and who
will come out ahead. We
won't know until it's over."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended July 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Utilities Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Devonshire Trust
(the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The
trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended
(the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company organized as a
Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the significant
accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
exchange quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-
supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in good faith
under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the
Board of Trustees. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days of
their purchase date are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus
accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year.
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon as the funds are informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes accretion of original
issue discount, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of
foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for foreign
currency transactions, non-taxable dividends and losses deferred
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
due to wash sales. The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed
to shareholders on redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid
deduction for income tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income
or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign securities and to manage
the fund's currency exposure. Contracts to buy generally are used to
acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while contracts to sell are used to
hedge the fund's investments against currency fluctuations. Also, a
contract to buy or sell can offset a previous contract. Losses may arise
from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if the counterparties
do not perform under the contracts' terms.
The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on
settlement date.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in
60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency Securities, the market
value of which is required to be at least equal to the repurchase price.
For term repurchase agreement transactions, the underlying securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS - CONTINUED
at least equal to the repurchase price. The fund's investment adviser,
Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $831,049,000 and $651,244,000, respectively, of which U.S.
government and government agency obligations aggregated $178,211,000 and
$263,946,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund. The
group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on
the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The
rates ranged from .2700% to .5200% for the period. In the event that these
rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period,
FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same
or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is .20%. The
basic fee is subject to a performance adjustment (up to a maximum of
(plus/minus) .15%) based on the fund's investment performance as compared
to the appropriate index over a specified period of time. The fund's
performance adjustment took effect in November 1994. For the period, the
management fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .53% of average net
assets .
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to
account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING AND SECURITY LENDING FEES. FSC maintains the fund's accounting
records and administers the security lending program. The security lending
fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The
accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month
plus out-of-pocket expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $296,000 for the period.
5. SECURITY LENDING.
The fund loaned securities to certain brokers who paid the fund negotiated
lenders' fees. These fees are included in interest income. The fund
receives U.S. Treasury obligations and/or cash as collateral against the
loaned securities, in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value
of the loaned securities at the inception of each loan. This collateral
must be maintained at not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned
securities during the period of the loan. At period end, the value of the
securities loaned and the value of collateral amounted to $9,506,000 and
$10,005,000, respectively.
6. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$182,000 under this arrangement.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
Keeping in mind that the effects of interest rate changes on your bond
investments will only be "paper" gains or losses unless you sell your
shares, staying in your bond fund may be appropriate if your investment
horizon is at least a year or more. The longer your investing time frame,
the more likely it is that you will retain your principal investment
through both up and down markets. For example, a 10-year time frame, such
as saving for a college education, enables you to weather these ups and
downs in a long-term fund, which has higher potential returns. An
intermediate-length fund could be appropriate if your investment horizon is
two to four years, and a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if
you need your money in one or two years.
If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving
some of your bond investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
No matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes
good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain amount
of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. A fund's total
return includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells bonds that have grown in value), and the effect of the $5 account
closeout fee. You can also look at the fund's income to measure
performance.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1995 PAST 6 PAST 1 LIFE OF
MONTHS YEAR FUND
Spartan Long-Term Government Bond 12.98% 13.38% 65.72%
Lehman Brothers Long-Term Government Bond 13.19% 13.59% n/a
Index
Salomon Brothers Treasury/Agency 10+ Year Index 13.15% 13.87% n/a
Average General U.S. Government Bond Fund 8.04% 8.48% n/a
Consumer Price Index 1.46% 2.76% 14.92%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, or since the fund
started on September 28, 1990. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a
fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment
would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the Lehman Brothers
Long-Term Government Bond Index or the Salomon Brothers Treasury/Agency
Year 10+ Year Index - both broad measures of the performance of long-term
government bonds. To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against
its peers, you can compare it to the average general U.S. government bond
fund, which reflects the performance of 185 funds with similar objectives
tracked by Lipper Analytical Services over the past six months. These
benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
Comparing the fund's performance to the consumer price index (CPI) helps
show how your fund did compared to inflation. (The CPI returns begin on the
month end closest to the fund's start date.)

and show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a
constant rate each year.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Spartan
Long-Term Government Bond Fund on September 30, 1990, shortly after the
fund started. As the chart shows, by July 31, 1995, the value of your
investment, with dividends reinvested would have grown to $16,573 - a
65.73% increase on your initial investment. This assumes you still owned
the fund on July 31, 1995 and therefore does not include the effect of the
$5 account closeout fee. For comparison, look at how the Salomon Brothers
Treasury/Agency 10+ Year Index did over the same period. With dividends
reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to $17,575 - a
75.75% increase. Beginning with this report the fund will compare its
performance to the Salomon Brothers Treasury/Agency 10+ Year Index rather
than the Lehman Brothers Long-Term Government Bond Index. Although the
difference in performance between the two indices is small, the Salomon
Brothers Index includes fewer securities and is more straightforward to
monitor on a daily basis. For comparison purposes, both indices are shown
on page 4.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. Bond prices, for
example, generally move in
the opposite direction of
interest rates. In turn, the
share price, return, and yield
of a fund that invests in
bonds will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

DIVIDEND returns and capital appreciation returns are both part of a bond
fund's total return. A dividend return reflects the actual dividends paid
by the fund. A capital appreciation return reflects both the amount paid by
the fund to shareholders as capital gain distributions and changes in the
fund's share price. Both returns assume the dividends or gains are
reinvested. Capital appreciation and total returns include the effect of
the $5 account closeout fee on an average sized account.

DIVIDENDS per share show the income paid by the fund for a set period and
do not reflect any tax reclassifications. If you annualize this number,
based on an average share price of $11.17 over the past six months and
$10.73 over the past year, you can compare the fund's income over these two
periods. The 30-day annualized YIELD is a standard formula for all funds
based on the yields of the bonds in the fund, averaged over the past 30
days. This figure shows you the yield characteristics of the fund's
investments at the end of the period. It also helps you compare funds from
different companies on an equal basis.
FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Curt Hollingsworth, Portfolio Manager of Spartan
Long-Term Government Bond Fund
Q. CURT, HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED?
A. For the six months ended July 31, 1995, the fund had a total return of
12.98%, compared to 8.04% for the average general U.S. government bond fund
tracked by Lipper Analytical Services, and 13.15% for the Salomon Brothers
Treasury/Agency 10+ Year Index. For the 12 months ended July 31, 1995, the
fund returned 13.38%, compared to 8.48% for the average general U.S.
government bond fund, and 13.87% for the Salomon Brothers index.
Q. WHAT IS MEANT BY TOTAL RETURN?
A. Risk and return are two of the most important aspects of an investment's
performance. When it comes to measuring return, in my opinion total return
is the best figure to look at. Instead of merely watching a fund's share
price - and assuming, for example, that they've lost 5% of their money if
the share price is down 5% over a year - investors are beginning to realize
that they need to take into account the monthly dividends they receive that
offset much of the price decline. Interest income is the main source of
return for a bond fund over the long term. Fortunately, total return is
easy to explain by using a "dollars in, dollars out" example. If someone
invested $100 in this bond fund a year ago and reinvested all dividends and
capital gains, then the investment would be worth $113.38 today. That is
what is meant by a cumulative total return of 13.38%.
Q. WHAT HELPED THE FUND PERFORM
BETTER THAN THE AVERAGE FUND?
A. The funds included in Lipper's U.S. government bond fund category have
an average duration that is much shorter than the duration of this fund.
Duration is a measure of a fund's sensitivity to changes in interest rates.
The longer the duration, the more sensitive a fund is to interest rate
changes. Since many of the funds in the Lipper category aren't focused on
longer-term bonds, their average duration is around five years. However,
this fund, with its long-term focus, has a duration closer to 10 years.
That means the fund is about twice as interest rate-sensitive as many of
the funds it is compared to.
Q. AND INTEREST RATES FELL OVER THE PERIOD?
A. Right. The bond market rallied during the past six months - with yields
falling and prices rising - as it became apparent that the economy was
slowing. Bond investors often perceive a slower economy to be a positive
backdrop, because it usually is an environment in which inflation does not
threaten to erode the value of a bond's fixed-income payments. Looking at
the long end of the yield curve - where you find bonds with 10- to 30-year
maturities - rates dropped as well, but not as much as they did in the one-
to 10-year range. As a result, at the end of July, the yield spread between
10-year and 30-year Treasuries had widened to 0.42% from 0.12% on January
31, 1995. That suggests there was good value in longer-term securities at
the end of the period. An investor was being paid more for assuming the
greater price volatility of longer-term bonds.
Q. HOW ARE YOU POSITIONING THE FUND?
A. The fund continues to be invested in Treasury securities. Most of the
fund's investments are bulleted, or focused, on the highest yielding part
of the yield curve, currently in the 20- to 25-year range. These
investments have benefited the fund in two ways. First, it's intuitively
appealing to own the highest yielding available Treasury issues. Second, if
the yield curve changes shape, it most likely will reshape in such a way
that other issues will increase in yield - and drop in price - to come
closer to these issues. If that happens, the fund should benefit. This part
of the curve will shift at some point, and in a few months perhaps bonds
with maturities a few months shorter or longer will become the highest
yielding issues. When that happens, I'll most likely swap the fund's
investments into those new high-yielding issues.
Q. WHAT ABOUT INVESTMENTS WITH MATURITIES LONGER THAN 25 YEARS?
A. I've underweighted this area, because it typically trades rich, or high
in price in terms of historical levels. In particular, I've not invested in
what are known as "current" 30-year Treasury bonds. These are bonds that
have been on the market for no more than three months. These current bonds
typically trade at lower yields - and higher prices - than 30-year bonds
that have been on the market longer. That's because they're more easily
tradable, making bond traders - who earn money simply by buying and selling
securities - more willing to pay a premium for them. Over the past several
years, as current long bonds have become older, the yields they offer have
grown and their prices have fallen.
Q. WHAT DO YOU SEE LOOKING OUT OVER THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. It's very difficult to predict the direction of interest rates. As a
result, I don't intend to actively manage the fund's duration in
anticipation of interest rate changes. Instead, I will try to manage the
fund so that it will have approximately the same duration as the Salomon
Brothers Treasury/Agency 10+ Year Index. Duration is an estimate of how
sensitive the fund's share price is to a change in comparable interest
rates. Over the next six months, I may add some more bonds to the fund, in
particular long-term federal agency issues. By doing so, I hope to add a
little extra yield to the fund.

CURT HOLLINGSWORTH ON
INVESTING IN A LONG-TERM BOND
FUND:
"At the end of July,
shareholders were being
rewarded more for investing
further out on the yield curve
than they were six months ago.
On July 31, 1995, someone
investing in a 30-year Treasury
bond received a 0.42% yield
advantage over someone
investing in a 10-year Treasury
bond. On January 31, 1995,
that yield advantage was only
0.12%.
"At the same time, it's
important to stress that this
fund can have more volatility
than shorter-term bond funds.
The fund has a duration of
about 10 years. That means
- - other things being equal -
if rates rose 1%, the fund's
share price would probably
drop approximately 10%.
"It's crucial for investors in this
fund to have a longer-term
investing horizon. Investors
with a long-term horizon
actually may be exposed to a
different type of risk in a
shorter-term fund -
reinvestment risk, which is the
risk that an investor may not
be able to reinvest short-term
returns at attractive rates.
"This is a long-term
government bond fund. As a
result, its share price is
especially sensitive to interest
rate changes. Investors in the
fund should be clear about
that, and should invest in the
fund for the long haul."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended July 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
7. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Spartan Long-Term Government Bond Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Devonshire Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number
of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix
system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider
market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Short-term securities
maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are valued either at
amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which
approximate current value. Securities for which market quotations are not
readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good
faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision
of the Board of Trustees.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Interest income, which includes accretion of original
issue discount, is accrued as earned.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for paydown
gains/losses on certain securities, market discount, foreign currency
transactions and losses deferred due to wash sales.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may
include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in a
subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end
is distributed in the following year.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES - CONTINUED
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
8. OPERATING POLICIES.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in
60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency Securities, the market
value of which is required to be at least equal to the repurchase price.
For term repurchase agreement transactions, the underlying securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
repurchase price. The fund's investment adviser, FMR, is responsible for
determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in
accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
9. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of long-term U.S. government and government agency
obligations aggregated $132,710,438 and $141,460,107, respectively.
10. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR pays all expenses,
except the compensation of the non-interested Trustees and certain
exceptions such as interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses. FMR receives a fee that is computed daily at an annual rate of
.65% of the fund's average net assets.
FMR also bears the cost of providing shareholder services to the fund. To
offset the cost of providing these services, FMR or its affiliates collect
certain transaction fees from the fund's shareholders which amounted to
$3,377 for the period.
11. BANK BORROWINGS.
The fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, the fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. The
maximum loan and the average daily loan balances during the periods for
which loans were outstanding amounted to $2,218,000 and $1,434,286,
respectively. The weighted average interest rate was 6.45%.

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term, as we witnessed last year. You also can help to manage some
of the risks of investing through diversification. A stock fund is already
diversified because it invests in many issues. You can diversify even
further by placing some of your money in several different types of stock
funds or in other investment categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage
change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. A fund's total
return includes changes in a fund's share price, plus reinvestment of any
dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits the fund earns when it
sells securities that have grown in value).
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1995 PAST 6 PAST 1 PAST 5 LIFE OF
MONTHS YEAR YEARS FUND
Real Estate Investment 8.12% 3.17% 83.64% 107.68%
S&P 500(registered trademark) 21.06% 26.11% 83.44% 203.03%
Average Real Estate 9.24% 4.99% 51.48% n/a
Fund
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years, or
since the fund started on November 17, 1986. For example, if you invested
$1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your
investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's returns to the
performance of the Standard & Poor's Composite Index of 500 Stocks - a
common proxy for the U.S. stock market. To measure how the fund's
performance stacked up against its peers, you can compare it to the average
real estate fund, which reflects the performance of 24 real estate funds
with similar objectives tracked by Lipper Analytical Services over the past
six months. Both benchmarks include reinvested dividends and capital gains,
if any.

$10,000 OVER LIFE OF FUND: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity Real
Estate Investment Portfolio on November 17, 1986, when the fund started. As
the chart shows, by July 31, 1995, the value of your investment would have
grown to $20,768 - a 107.68% increase on your initial investment. For
comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to
$30,303 - a 203.03% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can
ride out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Barry Greenfield Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Real
Estate Investment Portfolio
Q. BARRY, HOW DID THE FUND PERFORM?
A. For six months ended July 31, 1995, the fund returned 8.12% while the
average real estate fund returned 9.24%, according to Lipper Analytical
Services. For the 12 months ended July 31, 1995, the fund returned 3.17%,
versus the average real estate fund which returned 4.99% for the same time
period.
Q. WHAT'S HAPPENED IN THE REAL ESTATE MARKET SECTOR DURING THE PAST SIX
MONTHS?
A. Overall, the real estate market has shown slow, steady improvement
during the past six months. So far in 1995, rents have increased 3% to 5%
and occupancy rates have risen 1% to 2%. Real estate is usually on a nine
year cycle, and it's only the third year of recovery after the real estate
depression of 1989-1992. Many property types, such as central business
district office buildings, are just beginning to recover. The most positive
sign, however, is the fact that there's been very little new construction
to compete with existing commercial real estate. The biggest threat to real
estate isn't the stock market, or interest rates, but excessive building.
Q. WHAT ABOUT REAL ESTATE STOCKS?
A. Real estate stocks tend to rise and fall before the actual real estate
prices do. What I just described as happening in real estate currently is
the reason that real estate stocks went up in 1991 and 1992. More recently,
real estate stocks haven't caught up to the strong current business
prospects of the real estate industry. The stocks are inexpensive on both a
value basis and a price-earnings basis. Though the companies are performing
well, they are considered by many to be unattractive relative to other
investments. Real estate stocks are, for the most part, small-cap value
stocks, and thus far in 1995, many investors have preferred large-cap
growth stocks and technology stocks. The more aggressive investors in the
market have been ignoring real estate investment trusts, or REITs. The
stocks are at historically cheap levels versus the S&P and U.S. Treasuries,
and this relative underperformance shouldn't go on forever.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR STRATEGY IN THIS TYPE OF INVESTING ENVIRONMENT?
A. Within the REIT market there are several sectors or property types. I
attempt to be invested in the right sectors at the right time. If the
overall economic slowdown we've seen recently leads to recovery, the
slowdown will not have been strong enough or long enough to slow the
industrial cyclical REITs. Property types such as industrial parks, storage
facilities, suburban office buildings and hotels have historically improved
performance with the economy. However, if we're headed for more difficult
economic times, I may decide to emphasize REITs such as health care
facilities, apartment buildings and strip malls. My strategy has been to
reduce exposure to more conservative REITs, such as retailing and
apartments, and keep the fund more cyclically exposed to the recovering
economy.
Q. WHAT NEW TRENDS HAVE EMERGED IN THE REIT MARKET?
A. In 1993 and 1994, more than 100 real estate companies went public. So
far in 1995, only a handful have. Most of the financing this year has been
secondary offerings of the stronger, existing companies. Since there are
not many new names to buy, I've increased the fund's holdings in some of my
favorite stocks on the secondary offerings.
Q. WHAT REITS HAVE YOU FOUND ATTRACTIVE DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. The fund's holdings in hotels has more than doubled during the past six
months. Starwood Lodging was a private company that merged with an existing
REIT called Hotel Properties. As a rule, REITs are only allowed to have
passive income, collecting rents. This REIT, however, can operate bars,
restaurants, and shops inside its hotels and include that income in the
operating profits. Therefore, I think Starwood has the potential to grow
faster than the REIT industry. It is good-sized, has strong management, and
access to capital to invest.
Q. IT LOOKS LIKE INDUSTRIAL AND OFFICE BUILDINGS HAVE INCREASED AS A
PERCENTAGE OF THE PORTFOLIO . . .
A. Yes. Again, this is part of my strategy to stay exposed to the cyclical
real estate trends. Highwoods Properties is a combination of office
buildings for the Research Triangle in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, with
some properties in Charlotte and Richmond, Virginia. It is the dominant
player in that section of the country with well-managed buildings and high
occupancy rates. Another holding is Duke Realty which builds in its own
industrial office parks in Indianapolis, Columbus and St. Louis where the
market for build-to-suit properties is exploding. I've held Cali Realty
Corp. for almost a year. Cali is located right across the Hudson River from
New York City, where many companies have relocated their back offices. I've
also added Beacon Properties to the fund during the past year. Beacon is
located in Boston, where the real estate market for first-class space
continues to tighten and there are no new structures being built.
Q. WHAT INVESTMENTS HAVE BEEN DISAPPOINTING DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS?
A. The biggest letdown has been the fund's position in regional malls. Many
pension funds buy actual malls, rather than mall stocks, for their
portfolios. Recently, however, mall stocks have been relatively cheap, and
I thought there would be a higher demand for the stocks than for the actual
real estate. While the stocks haven't shown much change, they really
haven't performed as well as I'd hoped they would during the past six
months.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. I think the business prospects for real estate stocks have the potential
to continue to improve in the next six months just as they have during the
past six months. I'm not sure when relative demand will shift from
large-cap growth stocks back into the small-cap value stocks. I think the
relative performance of REITs versus the S&P will begin to narrow, but it's
hard to know when. In the meantime, I'll continue to keep the fund
positioned to take advantage of the growing strength in the economy and the
real estate market.

BARRY GREENFIELD ON MERGER
AND ACQUISITION ACTIVITY IN THE
REIT MARKET:
"Since there have been few
initial public offerings this
year, the army of existing
investment bankers has been
engaged in substantial merger
and acquisition activity. Some
poorly financed or weaker
REITs have been acquired by
larger, more successful
REITs. Others have been
acquired by private investors
such as Crocker by Apollo
Partnership, and Hotel
Properties by Starwood
Investment Partners. In
addition, some other portfolio
REITs such as Bradley and
Storage Equities have or are
acquiring their advisors.
Merger and acquisition
activity should continue as the
industry consolidates into
fewer, larger and
better-managed REITs. I
applaud this trend as it should
lead to more efficient
companies and higher
profits."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended July 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Real Estate Investment Portfolio (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity
Devonshire Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number
of shares. The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of
1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment
company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The following
summarizes the significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities for which exchange quotations are not readily
available (and in certain cases debt securities which trade on an
exchange), are valued primarily using dealer-supplied valuations or at
their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied
procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees.
Short-term securities maturing within sixty days of their purchase date are
valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of
which approximate current value.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income is accrued as earned. Investment income
is recorded net of foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is
uncertain.
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for market
discount, partnerships, non-taxable dividends, capital loss carryforwards
and losses deferred due to wash sales.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS - CONTINUED
include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in a
subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end
is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund, along with other affiliated
entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer
uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These
balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that mature in
60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized by U.S.
Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency Securities, the market
value of which is required to be at least equal to the repurchase price.
For term repurchase agreement transactions, the underlying securities are
marked-to-market daily and
maintained at a value at least equal to the repurchase price. FMR, the
fund's investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of
the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value
requirements stated above.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $225,570,460 and $224,716,716, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund. The
group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on
the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The
rates ranged from .2700% to .5200% for the period. In the event that these
rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period,
FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same
or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. For
the period, the management fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of .62%
of average net assets.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES -
CONTINUED
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to
account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and
mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements.
ACCOUNTING FEES. FSC maintains the fund's accounting records. The fee is
based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket
expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $277,820 for the period.
5. BANK BORROWINGS.
The fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, the fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. The
maximum loan and the average daily loan balances during the periods for
which loans were outstanding amounted to $10,101,000 and $4,793,545,
respectively. The weighted average interest rate was 6.4%.
6. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$84,050 under this arrangement.
7. TRANSACTIONS WITH
AFFILIATED COMPANIES.
An affiliated company is a company in which the fund has ownership of at
least 5% of the voting securities. Transactions during the period with
companies which are or were affiliates are as follows:

PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
DEAR SHAREHOLDER:
Although there have been positive market indications so far in 1995, no one
can predict what lies ahead for investors. Last year, stocks posted
below-average returns and bonds had one of the worst years in history. This
downturn followed a period in which the investing environment was generally
very positive.
These market ups and downs are a normal part of investing, and there are
some basic principles that are helpful for investors to remember in
different types of markets.
If you can leave your money invested over the long term, you can avoid the
results of the volatility that generally accompanies the stock market in
the short term, as we witnessed last year. You also can help to manage some
of the risks of investing through diversification. A stock fund is already
diversified because it invests in many issues. You can diversify even
further by placing some of your money in several different types of stock
funds or in other investment categories, such as bonds.
If you have a short investment time horizon, you might want to consider
moving some of your investment into a money market fund, which seeks income
and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term
investments. Of course, there is no assurance that a money market fund will
achieve its goal, and it is important to remember that money market funds
are not insured or guaranteed by any agency of the U.S. government.
Finally, no matter what your investment horizon or portfolio diversity, it
makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan - investing a certain
amount of money at the same time each month or quarter - and to review your
portfolio periodically. A periodic investment plan will not, of course,
assure a profit or protect against a loss.
If you have any questions, please call us at 1-800-544-8888. We stand ready
to provide the information you need to make the investments that are right
for you.
Best regards,
Edward C. Johnson 3d
PERFORMANCE: THE BOTTOM LINE
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can
look at the total percentage of change in value, the average annual
percentage change, or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. A
fund's total return includes changes in a fund's share price, plus
reinvestment of any dividends (or income) and capital gains (the profits
the fund earns when it sells stocks that have grown in value).
Equity-Income has a 2% sales charge, which has been waived through December
31, 1995.
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1995 PAST 6 PAST 1 PAST 5 PAST 10
MONTHS YEAR YEARS YEARS
Equity-Income 19.20% 18.36% 96.67% 238.63%
Equity-Income (incl. 2% sales 16.81% 15.99% 92.74% 231.86%
charge)
S&P 500 21.06% 26.11% 83.44% 307.06%
Average Equity Income Fund 15.61% 16.18% 71.72% 207.34%
CUMULATIVE TOTAL RETURNS show the fund's performance in percentage terms
over a set period - in this case, six months, one year, five years, or 10
years. For example, if you invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return
over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can
compare the fund's returns to the performance of the Standard & Poor's
Composite Index of 500 Stocks - a common proxy for the U.S. stock market.
To measure how the fund's performance stacked up against its peers, you can
compare it to the average equity income fund, which reflects the
performance of 141 funds with similar objectives tracked by Lipper
Analytical Services over the past six months. Both benchmarks include
reinvested dividends and capital gains, if any.
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS
PERIODS ENDED JULY 31, 1995 PAST 1 PAST 5 PAST 10
YEAR YEARS YEARS
Equity-Income 18.36% 14.49% 12.97%
Equity-Income (incl. 2% sales charge) 15.99% 14.02% 12.74%
S&P 500 26.11% 12.90% 15.07%
Average Equity Income Fund 16.18% 11.30% 11.56%
AVERAGE ANNUAL TOTAL RETURNS take the fund's actual (or cumulative) return
and show you what would have happened if the fund had performed at a
constant rate each year.

$10,000 OVER 10 YEARS: Let's say you invested $10,000 in Fidelity
Equity-Income Fund on July 31, 1985, and paid a 2% sales charge. As the
chart shows, by July 31, 1995, the value of your investment would have
grown to $33,186 - a 231.86% increase on your initial investment. For
comparison, look at how the S&P 500 did over the same period. With
dividends reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would have grown to
$40,706 - a 307.06% increase.
UNDERSTANDING
PERFORMANCE
How a fund did yesterday is
no guarantee of how it will do
tomorrow. The stock market,
for example, has a history of
growth in the long run and
volatility in the short run. In
turn, the share price and
return of a fund that invests in
stocks will vary. That means if
you sell your shares during a
market downturn, you might
lose money. But if you can ride
out the market's ups and
downs, you may have a gain.

FUND TALK: THE MANAGER'S OVERVIEW
An interview with Stephen Petersen, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Equity
Income Fund
Q. HOW HAS THE FUND PERFORMED, STEVE?
A. Very well. For the six months and 12 months ended July 31, 1995, the
fund returned 19.20% and 18.36%, respectively. That beat the average equity
income fund which returned 15.61%, for six months and 16.18% for the 12
months ended July 31, 1995, according to Lipper Analytical Services.
Q. HOW DID THE FUND MANAGE TO OUTPERFORM MANY OF ITS PEERS?
A. I think a primary reason for the fund's strong performance is the fact
that the fund continues to have a high exposure to common stocks versus
convertible securities and bonds. The fund has maintained an 80% to 85%
holding in common stocks, and many of the fund's largest positions have
performed well. Some of the fund's larger-cap, growth-oriented holdings,
such as Philip Morris, American Express, IBM and Fannie Mae in particular,
have done well during the past six months and have positively contributed
to performance.
Q. YOU'VE MADE VERY FEW CHANGES TO THE FUND'S TOP HOLDINGS AND MARKET
WEIGHTINGS DURING THE PAST SIX MONTHS. WHY?
A. The market has been strong, due to both declining interest rates and
strong corporate earnings. At the same time, there's a fair degree of
suspicion among many stock market participants that since the market cycle
is fairly mature, the quality, steady-growth areas are good places to
invest. The market's had very few themes - other than technology - so
there's been no incentive for me to change the fund's holdings. The
underlying fundamentals of many of the fund's top holdings were stronger at
the end of July than they were six or 12 months ago. In many circumstances,
the stocks I liked a year ago are the same ones I own in the portfolio
today, so I added to them.
Q. HAS THE FUND BENEFITED FROM THE STRONG PERFORMANCE OF TECHNOLOGY SECTOR
STOCKS?
A. Traditionally, the concept of Equity Income Fund is to provide a level
of income or yield that's greater than the market on average. Technology as
a market sector often features companies that are fast-growing and
non-dividend paying. That said, the fund has about a 5% holding in more
established technology companies such as IBM, Xerox and Digital Equipment.
Q. WHAT ABOUT THE DECLINE IN INTEREST RATES? HAS THAT HAD AN IMPACT ON YOUR
INVESTMENT DECISIONS?
A. Everything else held equal, when interest rates decline it can mean that
demand in the economy is weaker than it was previously. For that reason, I
started to look at cyclical parts of the economy. For some sectors, like
autos and appliances, the decline in interest rates should have a favorable
impact because I still see relatively good growth in the economy. During
the past six months I increased the fund's holdings in both Chrysler and
General Motors to try to take advantage of the drop in interest rates.
Q. FINANCIAL STOCKS CONTINUE TO BE THE FUNDS LARGEST MARKET SECTOR . . .
A. Yes, that's right. Lower interest rates have had a beneficial impact on
financial companies - particularly banks. I've been adding to the fund's
holdings in bank stocks, especially money center banks, where I think low
interest rates will help to bolster earnings. Also on the financial side,
Allstate has become a larger holding of the fund. That happened because
Sears spun off Allstate and, as a result, shareholders of Sears also became
shareholders of Allstate Insurance. Allstate is a very attractive stock and
has performed well lately. I continue to hold the stock because I think the
insurance operation should begin to show dramatic improvement after the
losses it suffered last year.
Q. WHAT DID THE FUND'S FOREIGN INVESTMENTS LOOK LIKE AS OF JULY 31, 1995?
A. Approximately 15% of the fund's holdings is foreign, including ADRs,
emerging market debt and foreign stocks or bonds in the local currency.
ADRs, or American Depository Receipts, are a way to own foreign stocks like
British Petroleum or Schlumerger that trade in dollars on the New York
Stock Exchange. The fund's emerging market debt has been trimmed since the
devaluation of the Mexican peso last December and the subsequent decline in
all emerging markets. Finally, the fund owns some stocks in Germany and
Japan, countries where we're looking for the economy to improve.
Q. WHAT INVESTMENTS DIDN'T PERFORM AS WELL AS YOU WOULD HAVE LIKED?
A. During the past six months, some of the fund's foreign holdings have
been disappointing. The Japanese market declined in the aftermath of the
Kobe earthquake and was hurt by the relative strength of its currency
against the dollar. In Germany, the stock market didn't perform as well as
we'd hoped because the reduction in interest rates we'd anticipated didn't
happen. Interestingly, in each of these markets, the underlying earnings
growth I anticipated from the individual companies that the fund owned in
Japan and Germany came through as expected. Unfortunately, with the markets
themselves performing poorly, stock prices weren't as strong as I'd hoped.
Q. WHAT'S YOUR OUTLOOK FOR THE NEXT SIX MONTHS?
A. I think that corporate earnings look strong going forward, while
inflationary tendencies and the risk of significantly increasing interest
rates seems slight. But do I think there's a risk of some kind or
correction - 5% to 10% - in the foreseeable future? Absolutely. From my
perspective the outlook is good, but a market that's up 20% every six
months is difficult to sustain. I'll probably keep emphasizing quality
companies while continuing to look for companies whose underlying
fundamentals are improving.

STEPHEN PETERSEN ON AUTO
STOCKS:
"When interest rates were
rising in 1994, the immediate
reaction by investors was that
it was a bad sign for large,
durable goods-oriented
companies such as
automobile manufacturers.
The common belief was that
autos are one of the first
things that people begin to cut
out of their spending plans.
As a result, auto stocks
traded down during late 1994
and early 1995.
"The fund had sold much of its
auto holdings earlier in 1994
in profit taking. Recently, I've
begun buying auto stocks
again. If the auto cycle, which
began in 1992, indeed has
peaked, it will be one of the
shortest-lived auto cycles
since World War II.
"I don't believe that the cycle
is over. I think the reason
sales slowed was because of
interest rates. Meanwhile, the
entire industry continued to
cut costs and is in good
financial shape. It looks to me
like General Motors and
Chrysler are in the best
position to prosper as interest
rates stay low."

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the period ended July 31, 1995 (Unaudited)
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES.
Fidelity Equity Income Fund (the fund) is a fund of Fidelity Devonshire
Trust (the trust) and is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares.
The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as
amended (the 1940 Act), as an open-end management investment company
organized as a Massachusetts business trust. The following summarizes the
significant accounting policies of the fund:
SECURITY VALUATION. Securities for which exchange quotations are readily
available are valued at the last sale price, or if no sale price, at the
closing bid price. Securities (including restricted securities) for which
exchange quotations are not readily available (and in certain cases debt
securities which trade on an exchange), are valued primarily using
dealer-supplied valuations or at their fair value as determined in good
faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision
of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities maturing within sixty days
of their purchase date are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus
accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
FOREIGN CURRENCY TRANSLATION. The accounting records of the fund are
maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and
liabilities denominated in a foreign currency are translated into U.S.
dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange at period end. Purchases and
sales of securities, income receipts, and expense payments are translated
into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rate on the respective dates
of the transactions.
Net realized gains and losses on foreign currency transactions represent
net gains and losses from sales and maturities of forward currency
contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains and losses
realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions,
and the difference between the amount of net investment income accrued and
the U.S. dollar amount actually received. The effects of changes in foreign
currency exchange rates on investments in securities are included with the
net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investment securities.
INCOME TAXES. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter
M of the Internal Revenue Code, the fund is not subject to income taxes to
the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for
its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding
income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
INVESTMENT INCOME. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date,
except certain dividends from foreign securities where the ex-dividend date
may have passed, are recorded as soon as the fund is informed of the
ex-dividend date. Interest income, which includes accretion of original
issue discount, is accrued as earned. Investment income is recorded net of
foreign taxes withheld where recovery of such taxes is uncertain.
1. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING
POLICIES - CONTINUED
EXPENSES. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund.
Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned between the
funds in the trust.
DISTRIBUTIONS TO SHAREHOLDERS. Distributions are recorded on the
ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with
income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting
principles. These differences, which may result in distribution
reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for futures
and options transactions, foreign currency transactions, market discount,
partnerships, non-taxable dividends and losses deferred due to wash sales.
The fund also utilized earnings and profits distributed to shareholders on
redemption of shares as a part of the dividends paid deduction for income
tax purposes.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder
distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital and may
affect the per-share allocation between net investment income and realized
and unrealized gain (loss). Undistributed net investment income (loss) and
accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments and
foreign currency transactions may include temporary book and tax basis
differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income
or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
SECURITY TRANSACTIONS. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade
date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of
identified cost.
2. OPERATING POLICIES.
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY CONTRACTS. The fund may use foreign currency
contracts to facilitate transactions in foreign securities and to manage
the fund's currency exposure. Contracts to buy generally are used to
acquire exposure to foreign currencies, while contracts to sell are used to
hedge the fund's investments against currency fluctuations. Also, a
contract to buy or sell can offset a previous contract. These contracts
involve market risk in excess of the unrealized gain or loss reflected in
the fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The U.S. dollar value of
the currencies the fund has committed to buy or sell is shown in the
schedule of investments under the caption "Forward Foreign Currency
Contracts." This amount represents the aggregate exposure to each currency
the fund has acquired or hedged through currency contracts at period end.
Losses may arise from changes in the value of the foreign currency or if
the counterparties do not perform under the contracts' terms.
The U.S. dollar value of forward foreign currency contracts is determined
using forward currency exchange rates supplied by a quotation service.
Purchases and sales of forward foreign currency contracts having the same
settlement date and broker are offset and any realized gain (loss) is
recognized on the date of
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FORWARD FOREIGN CURRENCY
CONTRACTS - CONTINUED
offset; otherwise, gain (loss) is recognized on settlement date. Contracts
that have been offset with different counterparties are reflected as both a
contract to buy and a contract to sell in the schedule of investments under
the caption "Forward Foreign Currency Contracts."
JOINT TRADING ACCOUNT. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the fund, along with other
affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may
transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts.
These balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements that
mature in 60 days or less from the date of purchase, and are collateralized
by U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
REPURCHASE AGREEMENTS. The fund, through its custodian, receives delivery
of the underlying U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency Securities, the market
value of which is required to be at least equal to the repurchase price.
For term repurchase agreement transactions, the underlying securities are
marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the
repurchase price. The fund's investment adviser, Fidelity Management &
Research Company (FMR), is responsible for determining that the value of
the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value
requirements stated above.
DELAYED DELIVERY TRANSACTIONS. The fund may purchase or sell securities on
a when-issued or forward commitment basis. Payment and delivery may take
place a month or more after the date of the transaction. The price of the
underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered
and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. The
market value of the securities purchased or sold on a when-issued or
forward commitment basis are identified as such in the fund's schedule of
investments. The fund may receive compensation for interest forgone in the
purchase of a delayed delivery security. With respect to purchase
commitments, the fund identifies securities as segregated in its custodial
records with a value at least equal to the amount of the commitment. Losses
may arise due to changes in the market value of the underlying securities
or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract.
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS. The fund may use futures and options
contracts to manage its exposure to the stock and bond markets and to
fluctuations in interest rates and currency values. Buying futures, writing
puts, and buying calls tend to increase the fund's exposure to the
underlying instrument. Selling futures, buying puts, and writing calls tend
to decrease the fund's exposure to the underlying instrument, or hedge
other fund investments. Losses may arise from changes in the value of the
underlying instruments, if there is an illiquid secondary market for the
contracts, or if the counterparties do not perform under the contracts'
terms.
2. OPERATING POLICIES - CONTINUED
FUTURES CONTRACTS AND OPTIONS - CONTINUED
Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day
by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. Exchange-traded
options are valued using the last sale price or, in the absence of a sale,
the last offering price. Options traded over-the-counter are valued using
dealer-supplied valuations.
INDEXED SECURITIES. The fund may invest in indexed securities whose values
are linked either directly or inversely to changes in foreign currencies,
interest rates, commodities, indices, or other underlying instruments. The
fund uses these securities to increase or decrease its exposure to
different underlying instruments and to gain exposure to markets that might
be difficult to invest in through conventional securities. Indexed
securities may be more volatile than their underlying instruments, but any
loss is limited to the amount of the original investment.
RESTRICTED SECURITIES. The fund is permitted to invest in securities that
are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale. These
securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration
or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these
securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt
sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. At the end of the period,
restricted securities (excluding 144A issues) amounted to $5,810,000 or
.01% of net assets.
3. PURCHASES AND SALES OF INVESTMENTS.
Purchases and sales of securities, other than short-term securities,
aggregated $2,050,050,000 and $1,724,552,000, respectively.
4. FEES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES.
MANAGEMENT FEE. As the fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly
basic fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed
individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of the fund. The
group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on
the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The
rates ranged from .2700% to .5200% for the period. In the event that these
rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period,
FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same
or a lower management fee. The annual individual fund fee rate is .12%.
For the period, the management fee was equivalent to an annualized rate of
.44% of average net assets.
SALES LOAD. For the period December 31, 1993 through December 31, 1995
Fidelity Distributors Corporation, an affiliate of FMR and the general
distributor of the fund, will voluntarily waive the sales charge (2% of the
offering price) on the sales of shares.
TRANSFER AGENT FEES. Fidelity Service Co. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is
the fund's transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent.
FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees

that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays for
typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy
statements.
ACCOUNTING AND SECURITY LENDING FEES. FSC maintains the fund's accounting
records and administers the security lending program. The security lending
fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The
accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month
plus out-of-pocket expenses.
BROKERAGE COMMISSIONS. The fund placed a portion of its portfolio
transactions with brokerage firms which are affiliates of FMR. The
commissions paid to these affiliated firms were $990,000 for the period.
5. SECURITY LENDING.
The fund loaned securities to certain brokers who paid the fund negotiated
lenders' fees. These fees are included in interest income. The fund
receives U.S. Treasury obligations and/or cash as collateral against the
loaned securities, in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value
of the loaned securities at the inception of each loan. This collateral
must be maintained at not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned
securities during the period of the loan. At period end, the value of the
securities loaned and the value of collateral amounted to $26,980,000 and
$28,109,000, respectively.
6. BANK BORROWINGS.
The fund is permitted to have bank borrowings for temporary or emergency
purposes to fund shareholder redemptions. The fund has established
borrowing arrangements with certain banks. Under the most restrictive
arrangement, the fund must pledge to the bank securities having a market
value in excess of 220% of the total bank borrowings. The interest rate on
the borrowings is the bank's base rate, as revised from time to time. The
maximum loan during the period for which the loan was outstanding amounted
to $5,446,000. The weighted average interest rate was 6.4%.
7. EXPENSE REDUCTIONS.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of
the fund's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by
$230,000 under this arrangement.
8. LITIGATION.
The fund is engaged in litigation against the obligor on the inflation
adjusted debt of Siderurgica Brasileiras SA, contesting the calculation of
the principal adjustment. The probability of success cannot be predicted
and the amount of recovery cannot be estimated. Any recovery from this
litigation would inure to the benefit of the fund.
