Cloudy weather with some rain last week,
interfered with the harvesting of the rowen
crop.
Apples are plenty. A question with the
farmers now is how to dispose of their sur
plus apples
Some farmers are digging their potatoes.
Crop good, and as yet butfew rotting.
e. S. Allen has this year raised an un-
usually nice field of corn. This field contain
ed about two acres. The growth of corn was
very heavy, standing, before it was cut six
to eight feet high. There were 405 stocks on
the field, and judging by what has been husk-
cd it is estimated that there will be about 200
bushels of ears of corn. Mr.. Allen spreads
on his fertilizers to enrich his land, not ma
nuring in the hill. There was also fair
crop of pumpkins on the field. The corn
crop is generally very good in this section.
Water in the pond that supplies power
for our mills is getting low. Unless we have
rain soon there will be lack of power to run
machinery.
Geo. Porter, Esq, is getting out the
timber for his saw mill building.
-Messrs. Boyle and Leonard had their
''evaporator" set ready for business last Sat
urday, and on Monday of this week com
menced operations. They make jelly from
sweet apple cider. Stetson Brothers have
commenced business in their cider mill.
The Changers had picnic at the resi-
dence of one of their members, Mr.. A. j.
Faulkner, on Saturday afternoon of last week,
Sept. 1S. There were about GO persons pres
ent, the party consisting of MEMBERS their
families and friends. Mr.. Faulkner and his
estmable lady received their guests with a
cordial, hearty welcome, and were cordially
greeted in return. The party arrived be-
tween two and three O'Clock 7. NJ, passed an
hour or more in social visit, or games as in
clination dictated and then collected in the
house and front yard where the formal exer-
cses were held, which consisted of Rotations
by the children, and the reading of selections.
At the close of these exercises the party re-
paired to the dining room where nice cola
ton had been prepared by the ladies. This
important and pleasant incident of the occa-
sion being disposed of, Mr.. Faulkner and
most of the gentlemen of the party took a
stroll over the farm to see the crops, and i'm
provements recently made. Mr.. Faulkner
recently cut down an old orchard, plowed the
lot and this year planted with corn, on which
he raised nice crop, and intends to make il
smooth so that when stocked to grass it can
be moved with machine. On another field
east of this-low land-he had another nice
field of corn and turnips some of the latter
growing to mammoth size, perhaps foot in
diameter On this lot he has put in about II
rods of under drain. He showed n field that
he had plowed for the first time and had rails.
ed thereon Gj bushels of barley. On u acres
he has raised and dug 275 bushels of nice po-
tatoes. Mr.. Faulkner is one of our thorough
going, enterprsing farmers, is master of his
business, and it is very natural to suppose
that he knows ''how to make farming pay
Success to him. H.
