Potatoes have made a good yield, but there is some complaint of 

 rot. The prospect is very good for root crops, celery and other 

 late market-garden crops. Apples are a light crop ; pears good ; 

 no peaches or grapes ; cranberries good. 



BARNSTABLE COUNTY. 



Falmouth (D. R. Wicks). — Corn is about up to the normal 

 but is a little late. Rowen and fall feed are up to the usual aver- 

 age, especially fall feed. Seeding is completed and is in fine 

 growing condition. The onion crop is normal where the seed 

 germinated. Potatoes have made a fair or average yield with fine 

 quality and little rot. All root crops bid fair to give good crops. 

 Some orchards show plenty of apples, while others have very few, 

 about half a crop of not very good quality. Pears plenty ; peaches 

 half a crop ; A^ery few grapes ; cranberries half a crop. 



Mashpee (W. F. Hammond). — Indian corn is below an average 

 crop. Rowen and fall feed are about average. There has not 

 been the usual amount of fall seeding done. Onions are only about 

 half a crop. There is an average yield of potatoes, but they are 

 rotting. Root crops are looking well and will be above average. 

 Apples, pears and grapes half crops ; cranberries not over one- 

 third of a crop. 



Harivich (A. N. Doane). — Indian corn compares favorably 

 with a normal crop. Rowen and fall feed are not up to the usual 

 average. Not much fall seeding has been done. Onions are 

 about an average crop. Potatoes are above the normal in yield 

 and quality. The prospect is good for root crops, celery and 

 other late market-garden crops. Apples, pears and grapes poor ; 

 no peaches ; half a crop of cranberries. 



Eastham (J. A. Clark) . — Indian corn is not much raised. 

 Rowen and fall feed are up to the usual average. Fall seeding is 

 not practised to any great extent. Onions are little raised. Pota- 

 toes are very good, both in yield and quality. The prospect is 

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

 Apples, pears and cranberries good. 



Truro (D. E. Paine). — Indian corn is not raised. Rowen and 

 fall feed are not up to the usual average. Very little fall seeding 

 has been done. Onions are little raised. Potatoes are above the 

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

 market-garden crops are very little raised. Apples are a good 

 crop and cranberries a fair one.
