Crop Reports.

The Maine Farmer will to-day publish its
usual June reports Of the outlooks for farm
ing in this State furnished that paper by cor
respondents in every part of Maine. In regard
to the important hay crop, the reports vary.
Taking them as whole, however, we should
judge that while there may not be such an
abundant crop as the last two years, it will
be fully up to the average. There is large
amount of hay left over. Stock came
through the winter splendidly, and more
attention is being given to the keeping
of stock, farmers seeing that it is
for their interest to eat up their hay on the
farm. and make their own manure. There
is a falling of in the smonnt of potatoes
planted ,on account of the low price which has
ruled this year, one of the correspondents
predicting that next spring potatoes will bring
one cent each. Fruit trees blossomed we'll,
and we have the unmistakable promise of the
repetition of the abundant harvest of two
years ago. More corn is being planted
there is slight decrease in the area of
wheat sown. The system of mixed hus-
bandry is still pursued, no special crop SEEM
ing to take the lead. There has been q
strange and almost unaccountable fatality
among the sheep. The copious rains of the
early spring retarded farming operations
somewhat. and the recent frosts nipped some
of the early crops. These seem to be the
only drawbacks thus far. The reports of
these correspondents were all written within
a week, and therefore present the present
prospects.
