Last nights frost has done considerable
damage here.

not do much damage here.

1t is believed the frost did but little
damage in this vicinity.

In this vicinity the frost last night very
materially injured corn, potatoes, and gar

The damage by frost last night is sup
posed to be great especially TO fruit gar
dens, DC. We have no reports from the
country.
KALAMAZOO, June IL.
We were visited in this vicinity by a
severe white frost last night, doing much
damage to potatoes, tomatoes, beans and
other garden stuff. Corn was consider
ably, and wheat slightly damaged.
IONA, June IL.
We were visited with severe frost
last night, The greatest injury in this
vicinity is TO garden vegetables. Fruit
and corn are considerably damaged in pla-
ces, but the damage done to wheat is in
considerable.
PONTIAC, June IL.
The frost last night was much more Sc
we're in its effects than that of Saturday
night last. All unprotected garden veg
etables, corn, &C., are killed, and the in
jury to fruit is considerable. Wheat is
thought not to be injured.
ST. JOHNS, June IL.
The frost here last night was very
heavy. Gardens and fruit suffered badly,
and grapes are ruined. There are no re-
ports from the country as yet, but it is
thought that wheat is not materially in
jured.
GRAND RAPIDS, June IL.
The frost last night was severe in this
vicinity, materially injuring fruit. Gar
dens suffered severely. 1t is feared that
wheat is damaged to considerable ex-
tent, although many farmers think not.
1t was without doubt the hardest frost Of
the season.
WHEAT.-Wheat continues to look
well; the wire-worm, however, in some
places are doing slight injury on low land
and the openings.
Hillsdale Standard, June Z.
THE CRops.-The crops in Clinton
Ingham, Jackson, and Calhoun counties
look well, corn and wheat especially
The same may be said of our own coun
ty. Allegan Journal, June 6.
The CRops AND FRosT.-We hear
that in all parts Of the county the crops
promise a large harvest. A slight frost
was experienced in this vicinity on Satur-
day night last. The damage done Ia
vegetation was not extensive.
Ann Arbor Journal, June 7.
FRosr.-We had severe frost on Fri
day night last, which nipped the vegeta-
bles quite severely; however the fruit and
grain seemed to have been advanced too
far; TO be effected great deal.
Battle Creek Jeffersonian.
THE CRoPs.-A friend who has recent
ly visited the south portion of this and
some of the northern townships in Genesee
county, reports the growing crops looking
fnely-the wheat crop especially So
His attention was attracted to some re-
markably thrifty and promising fields Of
wheat, the stalks being from three to
four feet in hight, though not headed out,
and of very stout growth.
Our informant was agreeably surprised
at the improvements and generally favor
able appearance of the sections he visited
and thinks many of our citizens are not
aware that so fine a farming region exists
so near us in that direction.
Saginaw Enterprise, June o.
| DAMAGE Bt Tile II hOSIs-l uo lIOSJ VI
last Saturday night did not confne its
visitation to any particular section, but
spread itself pretty eflectually over Wis
consin, northern Illinois and Indiana
Ohio, Pennsylvania, western New York
and Michigan. From accounts which have
been received, however, we are disposed
TO believe that was not so destructive as
was at first supposed, and particularly
here in Michigan. The gardens have
suffered most in this State, while the fields
in most localities have not been material
ly injured. All such vegetables as Gu
cumbers, beans, tomatoes, DC, which arc
reared in gardens, and are tender, were
pretty effectually used up. The damage
done to fruit, although considerable, does
not appear TO be as great as was at first
feared, and we have no account, as yet, o.
any considerable destruction. Corn is
the most injured Of any field production
and in very many counties il will be nee
