The, Crops, &C.

When theannual proclamation for Thanks
giving comes around, the Governor will have
especial reasons for thanking Divine Proyi-
dence for bounteous harvest, peace and hap
piness in Vermont. We have no knowledge
of more bountiful harvest than belongs to
farmers of Vermont the present year. The
crop of hay has been got in worse condi-
ton than on previous years of dry weather;
but corn, wheat oats, potatoes and other
fields will doubly repay the loss. Especial
care should be taken at harvesting the grain,
that it be not wet. 1t is a good method to
thresh it by machine as soon as it is in the
barn. 1t saves it from the inroads of mice,
and makes room in the full slowed barn.
