fertilizers of any consequence have been used here this fall. 

 Onions are a light crop, owing to dry weather. Potatoes are 

 scarcely an average crop, having been injured by drought. Root 

 crops promise well. The apple crop is light and the cranberry 

 crop heavy. 



NANTUCKET COUNTY. 



Nantucket (Chas. W., Gardner). — Corn was badly damaged 

 by the high winds, and will not be over a two-thirds crop. Rowen 

 and fall feed are below the average, owing to dry weather. As a 

 general thing, there is no fall seeding done here. Onions are not 

 an average crop, because of ravages by maggots. Potatoes are 

 about half a crop. The prospect for turnips and mangolds is 

 very good.
