Cliarlemont (H. S. Giles). — Root crops are fully up to the 

 average. Fall seeding made a good catch and promises well. 

 Farm stock is in average condition. The shortage in yield has 

 increased the price of many farm crops. Hay has been our most 

 profitable crop and pears our least profitable one. - The season 

 will compare favorably for profit with any average one. No. 1 

 apples are selling at $2 per barrel and No. 2 at $1. 



Buckland (C. E. Wakd). — Not much is done in the line of 

 root crops. Farm stock is in good condition. Fall seeding is in 

 good condition. Apples and potatoes are about the only crops 

 sold direct from the farm, and prices have been higher than usual 

 for these. Apples have been our most profitable crop for those who 

 have them and potatoes our least profitable one. The season has 

 not been a profitable one, as dairying is the principal business of 

 our farmers, and prices have ruled too low for profit. 



Conivay (J. C. Newhall). — Root crops are hardly up to the 

 average. Farm stock is generally in good condition, as pastures 

 have been good. Fall seeding is looking very well, although 

 suffering from drought on some land. Prices have been higher 

 for most crops than of late years. Tobacco is probably our most 

 profitable crop and corn and potatoes our least profitable ones. I 

 should say the year had been about an average one for profit. 

 Apples are mostly sold at $2 per barrel. 



Gill (F. F. Stoughton). — Farm stock is in good condition. 

 Potatoes and apples bring higher prices than they usually do. 

 Hay has been our most profitable crop and cucumbers our least 

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

 a profitable one for our farmers. 



Erviug (C. F. Clark). — Root crops are not up to the average. 

 Farm stock is in good condition. P'all seeding is looking very 

 well. Prices for crops raised for market are somewhat higher 

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

 our least profitable one. Considered as a whole, the season has 

 not been a profitable one for our farmers. 



Montague (C. S. Raymond). — Root crops are not up to the 

 usual average. Farm stock is in good condition, as fall feed has 

 been fine. Fall seeding is in about average condition. Prices for 

 farm crops are about 25 per cent better than in recent years. 

 Potatoes, onions and hay have been our most profitable crops and 

 corn our least profitable one. I think, on the whole, the season 

 has been an average one for profit. 



Sunderland (J. M. J. Legate). — Onions and potatoes are not 

 over one-half crops ; other roots not raised. Farm stock is look- 

 ing well. Fall seeding has been looking well, but is now badly
