ground is in good condition the crop is fair. Not very much fall 

 seeding has been done. Onions not an average crop on account 

 of dry weather. Potatoes average crop in yield and quality. Root 

 crops promise to be light. Apples more than an average ; cran- 

 berries light. 



Neiohury (G. W. Adams). — Corn 90 per cent of a full crop. 

 Rowen and fall feed are not more than one-fourth of an average. 

 Very little if any fall seeding has been done. Onions about an 

 average crop ; no special drawbacks except drouth. Potatoes 

 about 90 per cent of an average crop ; quality good. Root crops 

 fair to average. Strawberries poor ; apples fair in places, but less 

 than an average on the whole. No frosts yet of any consequence. 



Ipsioich (O. C. Smith). — Indian corn about 90 per cent of a 

 full crop. Pastures are poor and rowen hardly half a crop. Not 

 the usual amount of fall seeding has been done and dry weather 

 has injured what has. Dry weather reduced the onion crop about 

 20 per cent. Potatoes nearly an average crop of the best quality. 

 Root crops are good in spite of the drought. Cranberries esti- 

 mated as half a crop ; apples good in quantity and quality. 



Topsjield (B. P. Pike) . — Corn about 85 per cent of a full crop. 

 Rowen and fall feed are both almost a failure. Not as much fall 

 seeding as usual done ; starting well now, but very late. Onions 

 a very small crop, probably owing to drought. Potatoes an average 

 crop of excellent quality. Turnips late, few other roots raised. 

 Apples a full crop, cranberries almost a failure. 



Danvers (C. H. Prestox). — Indian corn is a good crop in most 

 places. Rowen and fall feed are very poor. Fall seeding is in 

 fair condition. Onions suffered from dry weather. Late potatoes 

 did fairly well. Apples are a good crop of good quality. 



NORFOLK COUNTY. 



Medway (Monroe Morse). — Corn is 85 per cent of a full crop. 

 Rowen a failure ; fall feed has started well since the rains of the 

 20th inst. Fall seeding is about average and is looking well. 

 Potatoes are 80 per cent in yield ; quality extra. Apples a full 

 crop ; cranberries said to be light. 



Millis (E. F. Richardson) . — Indian corn is less than an average 

 crop. Very little rowen or fall feed on account of drought. Not 

 quite the average amount of fall seeding has been done, condition 

 will be good with some more rain. Potatoes on low ground were 

 a splendid crop, but taken all together were less than average ; 

 quality good. The prospect for root crops is poor. Apple crop 

 large ; very few cranberries.
