HOP INTELLIGENCE.

novonron MuNeltr.LanA, June 21.—The hops in our
neighbourhood grow very fast, and, spite of the wet wea-
ther are looking remarkably well. The bine is very clean
and free from vermin.
MAIUMN, June 24.—The Imps round about us feel the
effects of the wet weather, haring slightly changed colour.
In some few grounds there is a little fly, but generally
speaking we are pretty clean, and free from vermin.
BMIOIIToN MAMIERan, June 21.—We arc, generally
speaking, looking very well. 't here are some few exceptions,
where the colour is somewhat changed. There is very little
fly or vermin of any sort.
WATERINUIMILY.—The bine grows most vigorously, is
very clean, and looks healthy. The wet weather has
scarcely affected us.
. MALLI)4O.—We are progressing very fast, and, with few
exceptions, look remarkably well ; here and there the
colour is slightly changed, but some warm and dry weather
will put it all to rights ; we are free from vermin.
ChOeallAll lln t., June 21.—The bine has continued to
make progress over the p les, with very little vermin.
HAWKHURST, June 24.—Ti.e hop blocs are very back-
ward at places, as well as yellow and unkindly. 'I here is
but a very little fly to be found.
Ewite ust, June 24.—The wet weather still continues,
and many gardens are full of weeds, hut we are still free
from vermin and in expectation of an average crop.
WRSTERHAM, June 24.—The hops are looking as well as
can bas expected, taking the excessive rains and cold nights
into consideration ; in some gardens the hops are over the
poles; in others much more backward. Not so much fly as
last week.
Mavritt.n, June 24.—1 f we have a continuance of the
fine weather of yesterday and to-day, our hops will soon
recover from the sickly state in which they have got from the
continual wet. The bine is clean and healthy, and in many
places have long climbed the poles.
CowneN, June 24.—The bine in thN parish is not going
on quite so well as we wish, what with the continual rains
and cold and frosty mornings; the yellow is general in the
Plantations •, we are rather diminishing in flea and fly, but
honey-dew has made its appearance in some of our grounds;
some fine summer weather is all that is wanted to set them
right where the bine has conquered the pole ; others may
not turn out so favourably.
l'etnativitar, June 24.—We remain much the same as
last week ; not any more vermin.
HEVER, June 24.—We are sadly in want of more sun-
shine, or we shall soon go very sickly and unkindly; no in-
crease of vermin.
tigIIWINGSToNF., June 24.—We are much the same is
our neighbours ; wish for fine weather, as the colour the
gardens begin to assume is yellow.
ASHroUll, June 21.—The hop pines have made great
progress during the past week, however, in some gardens
they are looking sickly, but are generally free from vermin.
BIiNENDIEN, June 24.—The bine in this parish is generally
looking well, although progressing slowly on account of the
continued wet, and the inability of tillage. The fly have
not increased.
Peasmansit, June 24.—The continuance of wet weather
has had a bad effect on all stiff and iow hop grounds, by
turning the bine yellow and unkindly; but we are still
without fly of any consequence.
Ileanconts, Tune 23.—We now from the late continual
rains have not such favourable symptoms as before. They are
in many places gone so very yellow and unkindly altoge-
ther, no tillage to assist can be pursued. We are in need of
sunny weather very much.
Tesinnito;•, June 2.1.—N0 increase of fly. Not much
progress made since last week. Looking rather yellow in a
great many of the grounds.
BUIIOIITLINO, June 23.—We think we never knew our
bine move on so tardily at this season of the year as it has
done (luring the past week, and particularly on the best cul-
tivated grounds, and units we get more propitious weather
very soon we must be slack of bine ; we have seen no fly for
several days.
SEVENOAKS June 21.—We are still progressing most
favourably, and although fly appears here and there, it is
not sufficient to check the growth of the plant. The bine
grows with great rapidity.
A6IIHenNUAM, June 24.—We are coming on for bine
well, but have a little show of flea and fly in tome gardens.
WannteroN, June 21.—The bine looks strong and
healthy; • little more sun would greatly improve it.
Our gardens do not look so clear front rubbish, owing to so
much rata.
WAUTLINO, June 23.—We are getting on well. The
bine is coming away strong, but little or no drawback. We
shall do now for wet ; the weather, at present, seems shuts
more set is for some sun.

BATTLE, June 23.—C01d nights, excessive moisture, and
the almost total absence of sunshine to-day, have given a
yellow tinge to the haves, but the fly has not made a noticea-
ble appearance.
Ileuorstoseerv, Jane 21.—Ourgarilens arc telling well
fur bine, which, upon the whale, is considered to be looking
well. We have nothing to say as regards vermin. The
wet, no doubt, has told against them so yet making any
great show.—.Surriv Standard.
