THE SEASON, CROPS, PRICES, ETC. 
Caledonia, Liv. Co., IV. Y. April 9.—After 
the long and severe winter, which claimed even 
the last day of March, spring weather has at last 
arrived. April opened pleasant hut with the 
March drifts In the fence*. April 5th and 6th 
were remarkable day*, opening with heavy thun¬ 
der storms from the north, changing to the 
south in the middle of the day and to t he noi l h- 
west, at 3 P. M. with a very severe thunder 
shower. Several trees were splintered In this 
vicinity. 1 do not remember to havo seen a-s 
great a discharge and play of electricity in April 
before. The 6th was similar in showers and 
changes, although milder In form. Winter 
wheat, the staple in t his vicinity, gives grantor 
pro 111 iso than at the same time last year. Tin' 
winter has been in some respects unfavorable, 
but in the matter of snow much more favorable 
than the preceding winter. Wheat made a 
Stronger full growth, and from January was bet¬ 
ter protected with snow. The unfavorable part 
was that In the early part of winter the ground 
was bare of snow, with alow temperature and 
penetrating winds rendering the ground to a 
great depth as impervious to water as if the 
soil were glass. This was followed with consid¬ 
erable snow and occasional thaws, tilling all 
basins and Indentations on level Helds (and 
there are many such on the porous soils of this 
town): this froze and thawed repeatedly, but 
could not escape, and on all such lands wheat 
will be more or less spotty. It is too early to 
speak with certainty as to fruit prospects. So 
far as l have examined peach buds on my own 
place, they appear to be mostly alive : grapes do 
not show as well, but I am not an expert in 
this matter of buds. Last year I pruned my 
grapes the last of March and found l he canes 
apparently all right; in due time they filled with 
sap, hut when the time arrived for the buds to 
unfold 1 was made aware that most all t he buds 
on the Isabella and fully one-half of my Dianas 
were killed. My Delawares were protected by 
evergreens, and wore young vines: they gave a 
full crop. The temporature has been lower t his 
than the preceding winter, therefore I shall not 
be surprised if the grapes in many cases prove 
to be damaged. Caledonia is more of a grain 
than a general produce market, but there is not 
much activity at present. Best white wheat, 
$1,75; corn, 551''60c.; barley, 75@85c; clover seed, 
small, $4.80; large, $5.75; potatoes, wholesale, 
45fii55<&75c.—the latter for Peach Blows and 
Early Rose. Hay, $F>1;24, and scarce; barns 
will be thoroughly cleaned of feed this Bpring, i 
I notice some tine flocks of sheep growing thin 
from lack of sufficient feed. We are having a 
great amount of rain; all low places are flooded. 
—1>. L, 
Amherst, Mass., April 7.—The winter has 
been cold and severe, with deep snow; at one 
t ime snow three feet deep' on a level. Have had 
one hundred and twenty-three days of first-rate 
sleighing. The mercury has been below zero 
ten times during the winter. There has been 
a great, deal of damage done to fruit trees by [ 
mice. Home apple orchards, containing trees [ 
ten to fifteen Inches in circumference, are 90 ! 
per cent, completely girdled—some trees with 
bark all removed from the ground to two feet j 
in bight. Corn is Oiva95c; oats, 60c.; potatoes,85 j

Do roil i no, Onon. Co.. V. Y. April W. The 
past winter has been long and cold, though not 
as severe as In many sections of the country. I 
find on looking at my diary that thetherrnotne- 
tcr has marked below zero fifteen limes, the 
coldest bolog fifteen below, ft commenced 
thawing here April It; the 5th and 0th. vivid 
lightning and heavy thunder with Hooding 
rains. Since t hen very warm. Snow all gone 
except in tlrifls; crocuses nearly in blossom: 
snow-drops open ; tulips have made their ap¬ 
pearance, and the. different kinds of birds pro¬ 
claim that spring lias come.—w. n. 
Marengo, IV. Y., April 1'. — Wheat on the 
ground looks very good, not being frozen out as 
it is by the spring frosts; there has been more 
or less snow on the fields all winter. Snow 
banks nearly all gone. Has rained for about a 
week almost every day and still continues. 
Water in Clyde River as high as il has boon iu

April 1st. Hoads very bad. We arc in the midst

Melvnltf, Ballo. Co., Mi., April 7. March 
21) we had a very severe gale, blowing down 
trees, unroofing and blowing down buildings. 
Since then, however, t he weather has been mild 
and pleasant; farmers arc sowing oats; my 
Clarke raspberries are flourishing; also my 
strawberries (Pros. Wilder), though they were 
not mulched but planted the north side of a 
fence; but my spinach is terribly frosted.-—

twin, A. Y„ April 12.—Winter crops in this 
part of the country look well. We lurte bad a

the 80th of Nov. and has not all disappeared 
yet. Hay is worth $18SU50 per ton ; cows, $30® 
50; horses, $KKFi 2S0; sheep, $1456; corn, 75e.;
