New-York daily tribune., 1859-06-04
CROP PROSPECTS.

gentleman who has just made the trip from New
York to Chicago through Pennsylvania, speaks IN the
highest terms ofthe appearance Of all the wheat heds
which he saw; and he says that he nowhere heard OF
an instance where the prospect Of good crop was not
fa,teriDg
In our opinion the present weather is too moist and
warm for wheat. In States where it Il now npening
t is in danger of nidew and rust
Is WIscossIs.-The papers Of this State all concur
in saying that no former year has afforded better
weather for putting in Spring crops, and that farmers
have very largely availed themselves Of il and put in
every acre possible. At the same time, the growing
yhest crop il described much larger in area than
heretofore and the prospect for great harvest e1-
tremely favorable. There are already apprehensions
that harvest hands will be too few to secure the crops
az they mature. We advise a few thousand " moth
ng-to-do people TO be off to that region.
IL KESTUcKY.-An acquaintance, large Ken
tucky farmer tells that he thinks the middle Of
June will find the central part Of that State in the
midst of the wheat harvest, and he has never seen
the prospect, fortnight before reapng time, look
more favorable than it does this year. Immense
fields Of corn have been planted in the very best con-
don and 30 far in the season he don't know OF SIN
gle cause of complaint among Kentucky farmers.
Their hopes with good reason, are exceedingly
buoyant.
Is MAINE.-Frank w. Potter, Of Athens, Somerset
County, Maine, under date of May 80, 1859, writes
folOws:
"The past Spring has been Of the best times for
planting that has been known in Maine for years. The
crops look splenddly and the prospects were never
brighter think that more land is sown to Wheat
and Oats than before. Corn, which Is rarely up
in this State before the 10th Of June, is growing
rapdly Fruit trees Of all kinds perfectly weighed
down with blossoms. The Grass is up finely, and an
ticipations strong for a large crop"
Is NEW YoRK.-All accounts from thew
ing region in the Western part of the State encour-
aging. The Rochester Democrat says that farmers in
that vicinity in representing the prospects OF the
Wheat crop as unusually promising. The Grain is so
far advanced generally that strong hopes enter
aned that has got the start of the dreaded and de-
structive enemy-the weevil. The fine appearance of
the fields is subject of general comment, scarcely a
barren spot being visible.
The same remark is made by persons who have
recently Travelled through several counties Of the
State Where Wheat is not sown, the Ryeis unusually
promising.
In the vicinity Of the city, have far in June,
the very best condition of weather to give corn and
other Spring planted crops rapid start. With fire.
ouent showers and warm atmosphere, everything
grows luxuriantly. Strawberries have never
seen before in such abundance in this market the first
week in June. All other small fruits likely to be
abundant Backberries in full blossom, and never
more full.
The dairy product is very forward, and likely to be
large.
