LIVE STOCK NOTES 
Very dry; new seeding badly injured 
by drought. Hay good; oats excellent 
crop; many pieces are thrashing 50 and 
00 bu. to the acre. A great deal of the 
corn crop is late and small, and the 
drought is affecting it'severely. Unless 
we get rain soon the corn crop in this 
immediate vicinity is anything but prom¬ 
ising. Wheat is averaging about 20 bu. 
to the acre. New Avheat. $2.10; hay, out 
of the field, $15; milk, test 3.5, .$2.80 per 
cwt.; butter scarce. 43c; eggs, 43c. local 
store. Pasture dried up and milk down 
two-fifths in .30 days. C. Jl. J. 
Crawford Co., Pa. 
The leading product is milk, which is 
sold to the creamery. The farmers are 
not selling anything at present, as we 
do not raise any garden truck, and the 
peaches are a complete failure. A few 
years ago this section was the leading 
peach-growing section of New .Jersey 
(northern Hunterdon County). The po¬ 
tato crop is a failure, not over 50 per 
cent of last year, caused by the blight. 
The local mills are offering 75c bu. for 
oats and $2.30 per hundred for corn ears. 
The oat crop is at least 25 per cent above 
last year, but the corn looks bad, caused 
by the dry weather and the seed not 
“coming up,” and replanting has put it 
back at least two weeks. w. ii. T. 
Hunterdon Co., N. J. 
This is a great milk center; the far¬ 
mers are receiving $3.08 per hundred for 
4 per cent fat, Avith 4c added or deducted 
for every 10 points below or above this 
standard. Veal calves, lO^/^c per lb.; 
eggs, 50c per doz.; wheat is selling now 
at miller’s .$2.15 for good grain; corn is 
bringing around $1.75 per bu.; oats. $1 
per bu.; potatoes, $1 a basket. These 
are the main crops grown here. The 
business outlook for farmers is, I think, 
very good, considering the scarcity of 
help. This perhaps is a great drawback 
with some, not all; some have all the help 
they need just now. Most all, I think, 
are pi’ospering. Wheat turned out well, 
considering the cold Winter. Oats were 
extra good, better perhaps than some ever 
had; tall, upstanding and very well 
grained. Corn needs rain very bad ; some 
looks good, while most of it is not very 
good, bad seed causing much of this, I 
think. Potatoes are just moderate; will 
not be an extra crop, so much leaf curl 
and blight, but taking everything all 
through, most all of the farmers are doing 
well. J. E. s.
