The outlook for the haycrop in this town is
favorable at present. Last year and year
before the crop was above the average, and
competent judge, one who makes the sub
Ject study. states that the indications are
that the crop this year, with favorable
weather, will be up to that of the two past
years. Old fields will not do quite so well,
on account of the absence of warm weather
earlier in the season; but warm days, with
occasional rains from now to haying time,
will help ont materially.
