in some sections, but as a whole below average in yield ; other fruits 

 about average. 



Pepperell (W. F. Dennen). — The corn crop is light about here. 

 Rowen was shortened by dry weather. A good deal of fall seeding is 

 being done, but people are late about it. No onions are raised here. 

 Potatoes are about normal in yield, and of good quality. Root crops, 

 celery and other late market-garden crops are not raised for market. 

 There will be but few apples; other fruits not raised for market. 



Dunstable (A. J. Gilson). — Indian corn is about a normal crop. 

 The rowen crop is above the normal, but fall feed has dried up badly. 

 The usual amount of fall seeding has not been done, but some of that 

 seeded early on low land is looking finely. The onion crop is below 

 the normal. Potatoes are about a normal crop, and of good quality. 

 Root crops are only raised for home use, but promise well. There 

 will be light yields of all kinds of fruit. 



Concord (Wm. H. Hunt). — There is a good corn crop. There is a 

 good crop of rowen, and fall feed looks well. About the usual amount 

 of fall seeding has been done, and it is in fair condition. Potatoes 

 are of good quality, but not quite up to the normal in yield. Root 

 crops, celery and other late market-garden crops are looking well. 

 Apples will not be quite a full crop; pears good; other fruits fair. 



Wakefield (Charles Talbot). — Indian corn is about an average 

 crop, as compared with former years. Rowen and fall feed are very 

 good. There has not been much fall seeding done this year. Onions 

 are fully up to the standard in quantity and (juality. Potatoes are a 

 much hea\'ier yield than in any former year. The prospect is good for 

 root crops, celery and other late market-garden crops, although lack 

 of rain has hurt them somewhat. No peaches; apples light; all other 

 fruits large yields; cranberries an immense yield. 



Stoneham (J. E. Wiley). — Rowen and fall feed are up to the usual 

 average. The usual amount of fall seeding has been done, but it is 

 backward, on account of dry weather. Potatoes are a good average 

 crop in yield and quality. Apples poor ; pears fair ; grapes fine ; cran- 

 berries poor. 



Arlington (W. W. Rawson). — Onions are not a normal crop. 

 Potatoes are not up to the normal in yield and quality. The prospect 

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

 The season has been a very peculiar one, and unless we have heavy 

 rains soon, all fall crops will be very light. 



TFcs/on (Henry L. Brown). — There is a good crop of corn, well 

 ripened. Rowen is up to the usual average, but owing to dry weather, 

 feed is now short. Some fall seeding has been done, but it has been 

 so dry that it could not come up except on moist land. The yield of 

 potatoes is light, but they are of good quality. In some places root 

 crops are looking well, while in others they are small, owing to dry 

 weather. There is a light apple crop ; pears about normal; some good 

 peaches; not many grapes grown here, and no cranberries.
