Winter grain has been cut and
stacked over the greater portion of the
state, and some threshing has been
done in the southern counties. Spring
wheat and oats are being cut in the
southern and central Counties, and
will reach the northern part Of the
state by the last of this week. Work
in the fields is necessarily slow as the
grain is of rank growth and much
lodged. The yield of oats promises
large, while spring wheat is reported
but fair, and in some counties light
A little damage by rust is commonly
reported, and, were threshing has
been done, a few mention shrunken
berries in wheat and barley, the result
of forced ripening by the excessive
heat of the latter part of July.
The weather conditions for harvest
ing have been excellent. A few thunder
storms were reported on Monday and
Tuesday and also on Friday and Sat
urday of last week, and in the north
half of the state this rain about equal
ed the normal fall. The temperature
has been high enough to keep all
growing crops coming forward rapidly
and yet not so high as to prevent work
or break and crack the soil. Showers
are needed, especially in the southern
counties.
Corn and potatoes are growing fine
ly. Corn coming ahead so fast, with
the favorably weather which it has
had, that many correspondents place
it as far advanced as it was at this
time last year. The absence of early
frost will, from the present outlook
insure an average crop. Bugs are do.

conditions are generally favorable
with prospects for large crop in the
northern counties.
Tobacco has improved steadily anG
now promises to be above the average
yield both in quantity and quality.

the cranberry marshes. The night:
have been warm enough not to inter
