the crop will be but half an average. Cabbages and cauliflowers 

 will be average crops. Cranberries will be less than half an aver- 

 age. Vegetables generally promise the usual crops. 



O. C. Smith. 



North Andover.—^ovien crop is light. Corn crop will not be 

 a full average. There has been no potato blight or rot ; they have 

 simply dried up, and late potatoes will be a light crop. Outlook 

 for late cabbages good. The cranberry crop is a complete failure. 

 Grape culture has not increased in the past five years. The out- 

 look for this year's crop is poor. 



Peter Holt, Jr. 



West Neivbunj. — There will not be much rowen. No potato 

 rot and no blight. Outlook for late potatoes rather poor. Out- 

 look for late cabbages very good, but cranberries will not be a 

 tenth part of a crop. Cxrape culture has not increased in the past 

 five years. This year's crop promises to be very poor. 



J. C. Takleton. 



FRANKLIN COUNTY. 



^l.s/t/ie/f/.— Outlook for rowen crop not as good as last year. 

 Think the corn crop will be a full average. Have heard of but 

 few cases of potato rot, and the ci-op promises to be very good. 

 Outlook for late cabbages good. Grape culture has not increased 

 in the past five years. This year's crop will be about an average. 



A. G. Howes. 



Co/m/n. — The late rains have helped the rowen crop and the 

 feed in pastures very much. Corn will hardly be a full average 

 crop. In this section the potato crop and the outlook for late 

 cabbages are good. The apple crop is a failure, and there will 

 hardly be enough apples for home use. Grape culture has not 

 increased in the past five years. The outlook for this year's crop 



is fairly good. , ^ „

Dee rfiehJ.— The rowen crop will not be an average. Potatoes, 

 early and late, are looking well and are very free from rot and 

 scab. Corn is looking well and will be a full average crop. Oats 

 are a very poor crop, and some are not worth harvesting. Wheat
