golds are looking well. There are but few apples and pears, no 

 peaches and few grapes. 



West Springfield (T. A. Rogeks). — Indian corn will give a 

 possible two-thirds crop, but can tell better when husked. Rowen 

 and fall feed are fully up to the average. About the usual amount 

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

 not more than a two-thirds crop. The yield of potatoes was all 

 right, but they have about half rotted. Root crops, celery and 

 other late market-garden crops are looking finely and promise good 

 crops. Apples few ; pears and grapes plenty ; very few peaches. 



Agaioam (J. G. Burt). — Indian corn will be only a light crop. 

 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 about an average crop. The yield of potatoes is good, 

 but they have rotted badly. The prospect is good for root crops, 

 celery and other late market-garden crops. There will be a good 

 crop of pears, but no other fruit. 



Ludlow (C. B. Bennett). — There will not be over a two-thirds 

 crop of Indian corn. Rowen is not up to the usual average, but 

 fall feed is above. More than the usual amount of fall seeding 

 has been done and it is looking finely. Potatoes have yielded 

 well, but half the crop has rotted. The prospect is good for root 

 crops, celery and other late market-garden crops. There are no 

 pears or peaches ; very few apples ; grapes good. Ensilage corn 

 is short and the leaves are narrow ; no one has enough to fill the 

 silos. 



Wilbraham (H. M. Bliss). — The warm days of last week 

 helped the corn crop and with no frost for two weeks many fields 

 will improve greatly. Rowen and fall feed are up to the usual 

 average. The usual amount of fall seeding has been done and is 

 in good condition. Onions are about half a crop. Potatoes made 

 a good yield of good quality, but show some rot. The prospect 

 for root crops, celery and other late market-garden crops is fairly 

 good. Apples are a little more than half a crop ; few pears; no 

 peaches ; grapes and cranberries fair. 



Monson (F. D. Rogers). — Corn shows a good growth of fodder 

 but needs a week or two of good weather to mature. Rowen is 

 good on early cut fields. The usual amount of fall seeding has 

 been done and is looking well. Potatoes are yielding better than 

 usual ; quality good, but rotting somewhat. The prospect is good 

 for root crops, celery and other late market-garden crops. Apples 

 are a light crop ; practically no pears, peaches or plums ; grapes 

 rotted badly.
