potatoes have been our most profitable crops and corn our least 

 profitable one. I think the season has been a profitable one, con-

Washington (E. H. Eames) . — Root crops have proved to be 

 about average. Farm stock is in good condition, better than last 

 year. Fall seeding is in good condition. Prices for market crops 

 have ranged about the same as other years. Corn and potatoes 

 have been our most profitable crops and there have been no unprof- 

 itable ones. The season has been a profitable one, all crops yield- 

 ing well and bringing fair prices. 



Cheshire (L. J. Northup) . — Root crops are a good average, 

 blight not appearing on potatoes as last year. Farm stock is 

 looking fairly well. Fall seeding is not nearly in as good con-

 favorably with other years. Potatoes have been our most pro- 

 fitable crop on account of price and quantity, and apples our least 

 profitable one. The season will compare very favorably with 

 former years as to profit.

 and potatoes have been our most profitable crops. The season has 

 been fairly profitable, all kinds of farm products having com- 

 manded a fair price.

 raised for market. Hay has been our most profitable crop and 

 oats our least profitable one. Considered as a whole the season 

 has been a fairly profitable one.
