TnE SEASON AND TnE cRops.

We have made some enquiry oil farm
ers from different paris Of our County, as
to the appearance Of the growing grain,
&C., and although opinions vary some
what on he subject, We judge ffvn What
we hear, added to our own observation
that the average is favorable. Although
the season has been very backward, YET
the warm, glowing weather that has SUD.
denly set in, has had an almost maglcai
eff. CT upon vegetation, which promisfs 70
make up for lis late start, should Inc sea
son continue favorable. There IS iIne
promise fFrut Of all kinds.--Pd. wing
The Reading Gszetie summaries lls
information on this subject as follows. -
The papers from oil parts Of The couriry
contain 1attering accounts ofths fayora-
bic appearance Of the grain crops this Sc a.
son. As far as we have been able to
learn, the fields in Berks county give cy-
cry indication Of a plenteous harvest TO
the farmer.
The Cincinnati Chronicle Of the Sd
inst. says that in Ohio there is every rea.
son to suppose the crop will be at least an
average one. Doubts were entertained
whether the root had not suffered from
the severity Of the winter: but generally
this is not cause Of injury to The Wheat
The principal injuries are from smut, ny,
and wet harvest. Should the weather be
dry from this period, we may hqpe tn .
crop will escape smut. The harvesting
is almost always dry in our county on
the whole there is no reason to doubt OF
good crops though we can hardly ex-
pect as good one as last year, because
that was remarkably fine.
The wheatfielis in Michigan are repre-
scented to look unusually well for the sea.
son. None of them, IN any quarter OF
that State, have been injured materially
by tbs winter.
In Western New York the appearance
OF the wheat is said TO be remarkably
good.
The Milton papers say thnt the gram
crops and clover fields, seldom lookc bet
ter at this season of the year, than they
do at present in that section OF the coun-
try.
The West Chester Examiner says that
in Chester county, the winter gra n, in
general, Looks well, and from present np
psarances gives reasonable expectation

with every prospect of a strong crop.

Gazette ofthe 9th inst. says-We feel
well assured by information from the
wheat growing region that The growing
crop promises more than an average yield.
