The frosts in New England in May
and June were much more severe than
first reported. In Tile detailed ac-
counts from some localities it is, re-
ported that the ground froze and that
ice formed IN eighth of an inch thick.
The best informed say that the garden
and Vegetable crops generally will be
almost a total failure in Rhode Island,
Connecticut and some parts Of Maine,
New Hampshire and Vermont. The
outlook for farmers was never more
discouraging in New England, and the
fatal season of 1916, the year without
q summer, in which frost fell in every
month, is despondently recalled. Corn
that withstood the freeze in the last
Friday in May was cut down by the
frost of June. Added to the frost was
q arouth that will prevent anything like
the usuallcrop of hay, while the pas.
lures are Us brown as in October, unless
accounts are greatly exaggerated the peo-
pie of New England have at present q
very dismal prospect ahead.
