The main crops? here arc fruits of all 
kinds. Markets arc very unsettled. 
Peaches sold from $2 to $3 per bu., basket 
included; Bartlett pears at 3c per lb.; 
apples, some sales, .$5 per bbl., tree run, 
barrel furnished by growers; dryers and 
cider. $1.50 to $2 per cwt. Cabbage crop 
very poor, many fields being ruined by 
lice. Potatoes, poor crop, $2 per bu. in 
home market. Wheat sowing just com¬ 
menced. All kinds of feed high; Winter^ 
wheat middlings, $07.50; barley feed, $70;

Orleans Co., N. Y. 
Potatoes have been good throughout 
our section, but some have rotted in the 
ground. Farmers have sold them at $2 
per bu. Corn is fairly good. The heavy 
storm in July broke it down, which pre¬ 
vented it from maturing and makes a lot 
of soft corn. It is now being cut. Fann¬ 
ers are selling old corn, shelled. $4 per 
100 lbs. The farmers have begun to 
I thrash the wheat, which is only half a 
crop. Most of it was damaged by the 
heavy rain. The seed wheat is soiling at 
$2.50 per bu. Oats, like the wheat, are 
much damaged by the rain; sold at 90c 
per bu. Hay was a good crop; not much 
sold in this section, as the farmers con¬ 
sume it all. Most of it is sent in. Sweet 
corn was a good crop; the farmers re¬ 
ceived $2.25 per 100; they considered it 
the best paying crop this season. Lima 
beans were a failure, selling at $5 per bu. 
Morris Co., N. .T. 0. B. W. 
We are situated in tbe northern tier of 
|counties, and on the backbone of the Ap¬ 
palachian system, in the highest altitude, 
and the streams run from our locality 
into the three great systems; therefore we 
are the latest to harvest of any locality 
in the State, so that we are not far 
enough along to have prices settled, only 
on stock and hay. Harvesting all done 
(Sept. 201 except corn. Thrashing starts 
with fairly good yield of oats. Buck¬ 
wheat fairly well filled. Corn for silage 
a good crop. Hay was a good crop, $18 
pressed. Fruit very light: not half enough 
for home use. Potatoes looking well, but 
not being dug yet. Milk supply light 
perhaps owing to the grasshoppers, as 
they were very numerous, but owing to 
the recent rains they are becoming greatly 
reduced. Butter. 60 to 65c; eggs. 42c 
Fresh cows selling from $90 to $150. 
Potter Co.. Pa. T.e.n. 
The leading products here are corn, po¬ 
tatoes. cabbage, melons and fhmatoes. The 
business iu this neighborhood is trucking 
for Ocean City and Atlantic City/ There 
are no large farms here, but they keep a 
person ou the move. Sweet corn has been 
about 40c per doz.; potatoes, $1.15 for *4 
bu. basket; cabbage from 10 to 15c; can¬ 
taloupes. $1; tomatoes, 90c; watermelons 
from 15 to 40c apiece. We have bad fair 
prices for our stuff, but very short crops 
Beans, especially Lima, have been a fail 
lire. The only full crop we have had is 
mosquitoes, but no buyers. The outlool 
at present is in no way encouraging. Corn 
will be about a half crop, sweet potatoes 
will be poor, about half crop ; white po¬ 
tatoes do not look very good. R. c. T.

below the average. Hay good and corn 
extra good. d. h. h. 
Dauphin Co., Pa. 
Farming in this section of the country 
has been up-hill work on account of ex¬ 
cessive rains. In general, hay was har¬ 
vested in pretty good condition and au 
unusually good crop. Rye was light. 
[Very little wheat raised here. Oat crop 
was very light, and the late oats were 
Caught by the rainy spell and injured to 
some extent. The farmers have started 
filling their silos. Some silage corn is 
very good and some very poor. Buck¬ 
wheat seems to be a good crop. Potatoes 
are medium. The blight struck the late 
potatoes and they are now beginning to 
rot. We may have half a crop. We have 
no local market here. We pay 55c for 
butter. For eggs we receive 55c at the 
local stores. A few miles away, nearer 
the railroad, we receive 68c f<>r the same 
quality of eggs. Potatoes, $1.50 per bu. 
We receive League price for milk, and 
sell to Borden’s and Calhoun Dairy Com¬ 
pany. which is owned by the farmers .and 
is rim on the co-operative plan. Fruit of 
all kinds very scarce. Apples are no crop : 
in fact, an apple tree fairly loaded with 
fruit is a curiosity. There will not be 
much hard cider drank hereabouts. 
Wayne Co., Pa. s. l. s. 
We are in the very northeast corner of 
Ohio. It lias been very dry here this 
rummer, but crops are quite good. Pas¬ 
tures are very bare. Corn is the best for 
three years, and that is the crop we de¬ 
pend on most. There are many silos. 
Buckwheat is ve-y good ; wheat also. This 
is a dairy county. Many public sales; 
cows bring from $90 to $225 at these 
sales. Milk is $3.25 per cwt. for Sep¬ 
tember. J. E. H.
