The continued wet weather is injuring
Il great deal Of wheat oats and hay, yet
in the harvest field. Even for corn, the
rains have been too much In tobacco
growing regions, it is said the excessive

The grasshoppers have made their ap-
poarance in immense droves in many

to be coniinIng their attention mainly
to Timothy meadows-have utterly
ruined a number of fine fields of grass

fields and pastures.
