The Crops.

TO calculate several weeks before the
harvest what the yield of field crops will
be is an uncertain business. Bad weather
single week may change crop of
promising appearance to failure, or fine
weather may cause equally as great a
change in the other direction in fields
where the indications are not propitious.
Even where crops have come to the har-
vest season the yield may be very mate
rally lessened by unfavorable weather
before they are gathered into barns and
granaries.
In Dakota, last year, splendid fields of
wheat were nearly destroyed after they
became fit for reaping and before the har-
vest could be completed. Two years ago
fairly promising hay crop in this State
on the first of July, proved when it was
gathered into the barns a very inferior
one-bad weather while making it doing
it serious damage.
But while we do not yet know accurate
ly what the result to the farmers will be
this season, it is very clear and beyond
dispute that the fields of Maine never pre-
scented a fairer prospect of an abundant
harvest than at the present time. Go in
what direction one will the picture is the
same Corn. potatoes. grain OF all kinds,
are unusually promising. while the hay
crop, a considerable part of which has
been cured and stored. is immense in
quantity. and if favorable weather con-
tinues few days longer will be good
average in quality. notwithstanding some
damage done by recent showery weather.
In riding over the country one sees luxu-
RANT crops everywhere. Gardens are in
prime condition. The apple crop, how
ever. will be a small one.
The contrast presented by the fields
compared with their appearance last sea-
son is very marked. Then the drought
was checking the growth of vegetation.
the fields were brown. the pastures bare,
the crops sickly, the harvest small. All
through the year up to the present month
prices for farm and garden products have
ranged very high. many kinds of vegeta-
bles being brought from other States to
supply our home markets.
If the present promise of good crops is
fulfilled the price of living next year will
be reduced. Farmers at Issx will have
