Few light local rains fell on a few days,

planting progressed rapidly. In some To-
calities planting is done, but in others some
has to be planted yet; in some fields the
and has to be replanted. The cool weather
retarded the growth of the corn and warm
er weather IS much needed. The young
corn, especially in the northern portion, is
coming up yellow. The older corn looks
fairly wei and the fields have been culti-
waited once or twice. Oats are coming up
slowly, but well. Rye, heading and bloom
ing, IS still in a most excellent condition.
Barley is promising in some localities of
the southern portion it is ripening. Glover
and timothy are blooming, promising much
seed but they are growing rank. Meadows
promise a large hay crop nearly every
where and pasturage is in the best condi-
ton Tobacco plants are being set out in
the fields. Potatoes are coming up slowly;
nearly all are planted. Vegetables and gar
den truck are growing only slowly because
of the cool weather. The apple and berry
crops promise well. The latter are full of
bloom and strawberries are ripenlng and on
