seeding has been done as yet. Potatoes are a large crop, but they are 

 rotting badly on some fields. Late market-garden crops are raised only 

 for home use. Apples are about half a crop ; other fruits not raised. 



Richmond (T. B. Salmon). — Indian corn is a full crop. Rowen and 

 fall feed are not up to the usual average. Less than the usual amount 

 of fall seeding has been done, but it is in good condition. Very few 

 onions are raised. Potatoes are an average crop in yield and quality. 

 Apples are a good crop ; pears small crop ; no peaches ; very few 

 plums ; grapes average. 



Pent (J. P. Sennett). — Indian corn is a fair crop, though about ten 

 days later than usual. Rowen and fall feed are rather light on account 

 of the dry weather. Very little fall seeding has been done, but that put 

 in is doing well. Onions are not raised here. Potatoes are a large yield 

 of excellent quality. Root crops promise well. Apples are a fair crop. 

 No killing frosts have occurred as yet. 



Cheshire (L. J. Nokthup). — The corn crop is the best for a number 

 of years. Rowen and fall feed are not quite up to the average. It has 

 been so dry that less fall seeding than usual has been done, but more 

 will be done later. Potatoes are more than an average crop and the 

 quality is the very best. Cabbages are looking well ; turnips a fair 

 crop ; celery and root crops about average. Apples are more plenty 

 than was expected ; other fruits not up to the average by 40 per cent. 



New Ashford (Elihu Ingraham).— Indian corn compares well with 

 an average crop. Rowen and fall seed are not up to the usual average. 

 The usual amount of fall seeding has been done and it is in good condi- 

 tion. Onions are a good crop. Potatoes are above the average in yield 

 and of good quality. The prospect is good for root crops, celery and 

 other late market-garden crops. Apples are plenty. 



FRANKLIN COUNTY. 



Heath (O. D. Canedy). — Indian corn compares well with the aver- 

 age. Rowen and fall feed are not up to their usual condition at this 

 time of year. The usual amount of fall seeding has been done and 

 it is looking well. Potatoes are more than an average crop of very fine 

 quality. There are but few apples ; pears not plenty ; peaches and 

 plums but few ; grapes plenty. 



Colrain (A. A. Smith). — Indian corn is about 10 per cent off from 

 the average. Rowen and fall feed are up to the usual average. The 

 usual amount of fall seeding has been done and it is in good condition. 

 Onions are a full crop. Potatoes are above the average in yield and 

 quality. The prospect is good for root crops, celery and other late 

 market-garden crops. There is about a three-fourths crop of all kinds 

 of fruit. 



Leyden (U. T. Darling). — Indian corn is about an average crop. 

 Rowen and fall feed are not up to the usual average. The usual amount

 quality. There is a very light crop of all kinds of fruit.
