 of a normal crop in value. Root crops are good average crops.

 good average condition. Prices for crops raised for market liave 

 been better than in average years. Apples and early potatoes are 

 our most profitable crops and squashes and cucumbers for pickling 

 our least profitable ones. All crops raised for market have yielded 

 well aud brought good prices, so the season has been a profitable 

 one.
