Wheat-Fine prospects for
good crop. Corn-Sot far enough advanced
to tell, some not yet planted. ats-Look
well, and will probably be full crop. Hay
Promises to be fair crop: Fruit-Apples
and peaches nearly all killed by late irosts.
New PmLADELPHIA.-Crop prospects OF
Tuscarawas county are only moderate.
Wheat is about the average. Corn, on &C.

less than average. Oats will be full crop
with prospects Of Is per cent over last year.
Potatoes-Prospects now for 90 per cent.

Fruit, except peaches, about as last year;
peaches 25 per cent less.

Grapes are very good, potatoes have made
a nice start, and oats fair start. The pros.
poets of trade in this town are good.
SrErBHyvILLE.-The spring has been so
backward and we have had so much rain
and cool weather that crops are all very
backward with US. We think the season at
least two weeks later than common. The
wheat looks right we'll and We should think
will prove fair crop. Oats look well
though late. Corn is coming up slowly
and in some localities has been worked
once, but only in few places. We should
Judge the corn crop will be light. The hay
crop will certainly be good one. There
will be but few apples, peaches. pears or
plums: but a fair crop Of smaller fruits Al.
together we fear the crops will not be large
but rather light.
BARsEsvILLE-A larger acreage Of wheal
was sown this year than last, or perhaps at
any time before, and the crop never looked
more promising. OF the oats crop there IS
a medium acreage, with prospects good,
The corn crop is looking well for this stage
OF the growth. Rainy weather has injured
the corn sohreyhat in the valleys, but as we
have good drainage In our valleys little
damage will accrue rom standing water.
Our corn crop will likely be an average
one. Grass is looking splendidly, and We
will likely have an unusually large caoP:

very scarce: cherries very scarce; straw
