The season is very late, fully three
weeks behindhand. Planting has been
very much delayed. in fact, many farmers
whose lands were low and fiat have expe-
rienced much difficulty in planting any
thing at ALL owing to the wetness of their
land. Comparatively cold weather for
this time of year has prevailed The
month of April was unusually cold,
May the coolest for 10 years. and since the
lst of June we have had no really warm
weather. Some farmers who had dryish
land planted their crops in May but we
hear many complaints of seed rotting in
the ground and one planter informs us that
he dug up rod of row planted to potatoes
and found only two seeds that were not rot
ten. Butfarmers should not despair as yet.
Grass, the small grains and apples are
looking well, and notwithstanding corn is
so backward, there is still, however,
plenty of time for ii to grow and ripen
if the weather is only favorable in the fil-
tnre. Very seldom has there been a
season in this latitude in Maine when the
corn crop has not matured, and If the
frost holds off as late as it did last year
there is little doubt but what a bountiful
crop will be harvested .hs year.
