Corn  is  a  fair  crop  in  this  part  of 
Westmoreland  County,  80c.  per  bu  ; 
wheat,  good,  $1.20;  oats  not  so  good,  45c. ; 
potatoes,  almost  a  failure,  $1.80.  No 
peaches  in  this  part  of  the  county.  Ap¬ 
ples.  part  of  crop.  Cattle  very  scarer. 
fresh  cows,  $75  to  $100.  Milk.  15c.  per 
gal,;  butter.  35c.  lb.;  eggs.  35c.  Mid¬ 
dlings,  $32  per  ton.  Meat,  fresh,  out  of 
sight:  we  do  not  pretend  » ■)  buy  any;  a 
piece  of  borne cured  ham  and  an  egg  is 
good  enough  for  me.  T.  M. 
Arnold,  i’a. 
Not  many  potatoes  unless  frost  stays 
off  late ;  tops  are  making  good  growth 
since  the  rain.  We  had  a  very  dry  Sum¬ 
mer.  Nay  crop  extra  good,  ail  put  in  in 
good  shape.  No  rain  during  hay-making; 
not  all  the  hay  was  made,  too  much  this 
year.  Wheat,  good;  oats  hurt,  by  dry  and 
hot  weather,  lots  of  straw.  Corn  good 
where  planted  early  and  cultivated,  and 
very  poor  where  planted  late  and  not 
tended.  Butter  and  eggs  in  great  de¬ 
mand;  eggs,  28c.;  chickens.  17c.  lb. 
Peaches  very  plentiful ;  plums  scarce ; 
pears  very  plentiful,  but  poor.  A  great 
crop  of  clover  seed  this  year  ;  seed  line.  I 
got  a  good  stand  of  Alfalfa  seeded  in 
August.  w.  ir.

At  farm  sale  to-day  potatoes  sold  at 
97c.  jter  bu. ;  oats.  55c, ;  cows,  $90  to 
$110.  Standing  corn,  yielding  about  00 
bu.  per  acre,  sold  at.  $19.00  per  acre. 
Our  proximity  to  Philadelphia  brings  fair 
prices  for  truck  and  fruits  at.  retail,  but, 
as  a  rule,  can  barely  get  cost  of  growing 
from  wholesale  dealers.  Same  with  but¬ 
ter,  as  they  return  only  18c.  to  20c.  for 
identical  grade  l  sell  retail  stores  for 
35c.  Milk  sells  4c.  to  4 fjc.  per  quart. 
We  hope  to  get  5c.  for  3.5  per  cent,  milk 
October  1st,  3  per  cent,  at  4  >*>«•„  and  5 
per  cent,  at  5%c.  This  is  a  dairy  sec¬ 
tion,  hut  many  of  us  are  giving  up  our 
herds.  Five  of  my  neighbors  have  done 
so  in  the  past  year.  Healers  get  from 
$100  to  $150  for  grades,  throw-outs  from 
cow  test  associati  ms,  and  discards  from 
herds  where  they  know  their  cows.  This 
particular  section  was  once  a  garden  and 
can  be  made  so  again — that,  too,  at  a 
profit.  We  take  little  or  no  interest  in 
our  production  or  soil  improvement.  We 
are  ceasing  to  be  farmers  and  are  simply 
real  estate  speculators.  We  are  trying  to 
get  a  living  and  pay  our  taxes,  hoping 
for  some  one  to  come  along  and  buy  us
