June %, 1879. :
To the Editor of the Morristown Gazette:
o! it is very hot, this afternoon.
We here in the Corners" have been
looking eight weeks, come Sunday,
for a good storm of rain. We are
still looking for one, and as the days
go by, giving forth signs of rain but
passing by without fruition, we won
der what it all means. OF course,
the pastures are literally dried up,
the corn is suffering greatly for the
vivifying influence of moisture, and
men, women and children are won
9ering where the Germ and hog meat
are. coming from for another year 8
consumption.
The wheat is nearly all harvested,
and, yesterday, q thresher commenc-
ed threshing it out. The product to
the acre is small, but the grain is
plump, round and full. The quality
is excellent. The late dry weather
has been favorably for maturing and
harvesting it. OF course, the farm.
ers are looking for better price for
their wheat than they obtained for
the shriveled stuff last year, and l
think they will get it.
The dry weather has been very
unfaVorable for the growth of oats,
and they are short and scanty.
Many fields will be moved and con.
sumed by the hogs.
There is next to no hay to be cut,
and early potatoes are few in the
hill and small at that.
BIackberries are everlas tinglv
thick but will be small and shri veled
