Vermont crops.

An associated press summary of the Yer
mont crop prospect, gathered at White
River Junction, says: "Reports received
from various parts of the state say that
grains look vigorous, but it is yet too early
to Judge of the size of the crop. Corn is
looking we'll and so is the potato crop.
The bugs, as usual, are troubling the latter
crop. Fruit does not promise usual yield,
and in scme places the crop will be the
highest in recent years. Apple trees did
not bloom as full as common, especially on
the river, while the pear and peach trees
hardly promise a fair harvest. Back on
the hills the old orchards did better in the
bloom, and the outlook is better"
