WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
Issued by the U. S. Depart
ment Of Agriculture in Co.
operation With the State
Weather Service.

The past weeks weather has
favored cider making and the
harvesting of corn, tobacco and
truck. The rains of the Sth and
9th refreshed pastures i'll some
districts, but was not generally
heavy enough to permit much
fall blowing, which has been de
layed over much of the section by
lack of moisture.
Preparation for seeding made
slow progress during the week
except in portions of Frederick
County where work was resumed
after the rains of the Sth and 9th.
Very littlei seeding was done in
any part of the section. Some
corn has been cut in nearly all
districts and the harvest will be-
come more or less general during
the coming week, although there
are few localities where the
crop will not reach maturity un-
til toward the close of the month.
The early crop is reported short
in some of the western counties
where the rainfall was insufficient
during the period of growth, but
average to splendid yields are
looked for over most of the north
ern central counties, and gener-
ally i'll the southern and eastern
counties. The reports are rather
unfavOrable regarding the late
corn, but the condition will prob
ably be improved by the late
rains. Ensilage corn is being
cut i'll Cecil County. Fodder is
about all saved in Dorchester
County, and some husking has
been done. A few localities re-
port a lack of help in the corn
harvest, on account of the work
being done in the canning factor.

rett County, but in the north.
eastern counties good yields are
expected Pastures are short in
the northern central and western
counties, but have continued faiI
to good elsewhere, and should
now show general improvement,
Some clover seed has been hulled
giving fair yields.
All vegetable growth has made
slow progress on account of the
dry weather, although relieved
here and there by local heavy
rains. Cabbages are generally
short crop. Turnips show poor
stands in Western Maryland and
are growing slowly i'll the eastern
counties. Tomatoes have been
injured by drought in Carroll
County; i'll Hartford County they
have been irregularly affected,
and some blight prevails; over the
main truck growing district,
picking still continues, but the
yieldsEare growing lighter. Po-
tatoes are short to nearly average
yields in most localities.
The apple crop is ripening a lit
tie earlier than usual this season,
and cider making is general. In
Washington County an abundant
apple crop of perfect quality is
promised, and the trees are break.
ing with the weight of the fruit;
prospects are fair TO good in Car
roll County, and excellent over
the interior and southern coun.
ties generally. On the eastern
shore the apples are somewhat
defective in places, and are not
turning out as well as expected in
Dorchester County, they are
scarce and inferior in Worcester
County. In all districts the drop
continues. Grapes are plentiful
in Carroll, Baltimore, and How
