THE AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL. 



June 25, 



can't expect a big crop of corn, wheat 

 and hay. We had two short crops of 

 corn. I have a good prospect for good 

 crops of wheat, corn and potatoes. The 

 hay crop will be short, but T will carry 

 over about 12 tons for another year. 

 We can't complain, only if wheat would 

 get better in prioe. I am hauling my 

 last year's crop of wheat at only 65 

 cents per bushel. 



The fruit crop will be very short — no 

 apples — but the prospect for peaches is 

 very good so far. L. A. Hammond.

Later. — June 15. — The long drouth 

 has been broken with lots of rain, almost 

 floods in places, and everything is in a 

 flourishing condicion. The bees are roll- 

 ing the honey in. L. A. H.
