for root crops is very good. Apples and pears are good crops, 

 grapes a large crop and not many peaches. 



Conway (J. C. Newiiall). — Indian corn is a full average crop. 

 Rowen and fall feed are above the usual average. The usual 

 amount of fall seeding has been done and it is looking finely. 

 Onions are less than an average crop. Potatoes are far below the 

 average in both yield and quality. Root crops, celery and late 

 market-garden crops promise fairly well. Apples are the greatest 

 crop ever known but other fruits are not average. 



Whately (Frank Dickinson). — Indian corn is more than an 

 average crop. Rowen was less than an average crop but fall feed 

 is good. A small amount of fall seeding has been done and it is 

 in fine condition. Onions are a good crop but not up to the aver- 

 age. Potatoes are below the average in yield but of good quality. 

 Late market-garden crops look well. Apples and grapes are very 

 heavy crops. 



Leverett (W. L. Boutwell). — Indian corn is 90 per cent of a 

 full crop. Rowen is rather better than an average crop and fall 

 feed is extra good. The usual amount of fall seeding has been 

 done and is in good condition. Onions are about 80 per cent of 

 an average crop. Potatoes are not over half a crop and the quality 

 is very poor. Root crops, celery and other late market-garden 

 crops promise fairly well. Apples, pears and grapes are very 

 good crops. 



Montague (C. S. Raymond). — Corn is a full average crop. 

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

 amount of fall seeding has been done and the condition is very 

 good. Onions are about 80 per cent of an average crop. Pota- 

 toes are about a three-fourths crop and the quality is good. There 

 are few root crops raised and not much celery, but what little there 

 is are average crops. Apples are an abundant crop and grapes 

 plenty. We have had a very good season for all crops except the 

 first crop of hay. I think the failure of potatoes and onions is 

 more owing to blight than anything else, and that comes in good 

 seasons as well as bad. 



Orange (Ansel Harrington) . — Indian corn is a full average 

 crop. There was more than the usual amount of rowen and fall 

 feed is very good. There has not been quite as much fall seeding 

 done as usual but its present condition is fairly good. Potatoes 

 are not more than a three-fourths crop but the quality is very good. 

 Root crops, celery and other late market-garden crops are about 

 the same as usual. Apples are a very large crop, grapes about 

 average and other fruit scarce.
