WEATHER FAVORABLE.


Boston, Sept. l3.-As q whole. the
weather has been favorable to the ma
turing Of crops, to harvesting and to fall
work. There still Is need of rain in parts
of Maine, New Hampshire and Ver-
mont. In the first named state the
ground in some localities is too dry for
plowing.
The rainfall for last week averages
light In a few instances, however
large amounts fell during local storms,
washing fields and roads and damaging
crops.
Seeding in many instances Is com
pleted, and is nearing the end for the
entire district. II has been favored b.
good weather. Corn is being secured;
with few exceptions the crop is the larg-
est Of recent years. Many silos have been
| aled with good crops; this work will
soon be finished. Buckwheat Is mostly
harvested; the crop is considered ex
| cellent.
Grass continues in excellent condition
in most sections Pastures and mead
| ows are green. Considerable hay (scc-
| ond crop was secured during the week.
| In some sections the barns are full to
overlooking, and many acres Of grass
| will not be cut.
Apples are coloring rapidly, earlier
than usual in places. Wind has caused
| dropping. Fall berries are in sufficient
supply. Cranberry picking has begun,
though little has yet been done; all re-
port a light crop Of coed fruit. Pears
and plums arc in fair supply. Grapes
are ripenng.
Tomatoes have ripencd rapidly in most
sections, and the supply is abundant.
Potato digging Is In progress through
out the district; the crop Is uneven,
though the yield 1t Is believed, will fully
equal the average. While the complaint
of rot Is widespread, great loss viii re-
suit in but few sections. The warm,
moist weather has not favored cabbage,
lima beans and caulifower.
Tobacco is about secured, and Is cur
Ing well. although the warm days were
not favorable. The crop exceeds the
average in quantity, and is of good quail
ity.
