Gill (F, F. Stoughton). — Root crops are not much raised. 

 Farm stock is in good condition. Some crops have brought higher 

 prices than usual. Hay has been our most profitable crop and 

 potatoes our least profitable one. I think that the season has been 

 a profitable one for our farmers. Neither torches nor smoke are 

 used to prevent frost. 



Shelburne (G. E. Taylor). — All farm stock is in fine condition. 

 Fall seeding is in good condition. The prices for crops raised for 

 market are somewhat higher than usual. Hay has been our most 

 profitable crop and potatoes our least profitable one. The season 

 has been favorable, but its results are still largely in the future. 

 Dairy products are not in proportion to the cost of feed. Torches 

 or smoke have not been used to prevent frost. 



Deerjield (Chas. Jones). — Root crops are nearly average crops. 

 Farm stock is looking well with plenty of feed in pastures. Fall 

 seeding is looking finely. Tobacco is curing well with the prospect 

 of selling for a good price. Onions are a light crop, but are selling 

 for a good price. Indian corn is a good crop and nearly all har- 

 vested. Potatoes are very uneven, some fields yielding well and 

 others very lightly. Considered as a whole the season has been a 

 profitable one for our farmers. 



Sunderland (J. M. Legate). — Root crops have not proved to 

 be average crops. Farm stock is looking well. Fall seeding is in 

 fine shape. Prices for crops raised for market have been above 

 the average. Onions have been our most profitable crop. It is 

 hard to say what crop has been least profitable, but I think corn. 

 The season has probably been a profitable one for our farmers and 

 it surely will be if they get a good price for their tobacco. 



Wendell (N. D. Plumb). — Root crops are normal crop. Farm 

 stock is looking well. But very little fall seeding has been done 

 as yet. The best prices for ten years have been obtained for crops 

 raised for market. Potatoes and hay have been our most profit- 

 able crops and apples and root crops our least profitable ones. 

 Considered as a whole the season has not been a profitable one. 

 Torches or smoke are not used to prevent frost. 



Northfield (T. R. Callender). — Root crops are fully up to the 

 average. All farm stock is looking well, pasturage having been 

 better than for many years. New seeded land is in particularly 

 good condition. Prices for crops raised for market have advanced 

 all along the line. Tobacco has been our most profitable crop and 

 cucumbers for pickling our least profitable one. The season has 

 been a profitable one generally speaking. Farmers are still mow- 

 ing rowen. Fall work is well along, all potatoes being dug and
