conference held at the foreign office in
London between Lord Salisbury, Sir Ju-

This outcome is not positively as
surcd but Mr.. Choate's report OF The ex-

that neeotia ations may be again taken up
with sor,e prospect OF coaching an aere, =
ment between the two branches of the

WANT OF MOISTURE
Retarding the Growth OF Crops in the
New England states

Boston. May 1.-THE weekly crop bulle-
tin of the New England section of the cli-
mate and crop service of tho weather bu-
reau says:
Bright sunshine has been the prevailing
feature of the weather during the week
past. The precipitation was light and the
temperature above normal. The average
number of Gear days was four, partly
cloudy two, and cloudy oNe.
The continued clear almost rainless
weather for q month in tho greater por-
tion OF New England, although 1t was
most favorable to the starting of veget-
able growth has become injurious during
the week by retarding growth because of
want of moisture. Grass generally suffers
most. Oats are up In the South and have
been sown in most northern sections. A
large acreage of potatoes has been plant
ed in the South and are being put in in
the North. The soil Is rather dry for tho
termination OF planted corn. Stock has
been turned out to pasture, but finds tho
feed somewhat short. Fruit Is blooming;
apples moderately. pears, plums, apricots,
and other fruit quite well. Strawberries
are doing very well in the three Southern
States The cranberry bogs are being
drained. There is general complaint in
Massachusetts of winter killing OF berries.
Trees in the South have almost full fol-
iage. In central Massachusetts the tent
caterpillar is increasing in numbers, IA
vored by the dry weather. The top of the
ground in most of the section is hard and
the roads dusty.
The growth of oats has been checked by
lack of rain, but not seriously. Rye IS
heading along the Southern coast and
looks well elsewhere. Corn is coming up
in Massachusetts, but here, even more
than in the Southern States, rain is need
ed. In the three Northern States this
crop is being planted. Drought is begin
ning to affect grass in northern sections.
In Massachusetts the hay crop promises
at this time TO be short. The heavier rain
fall in the South has helped the crop
greatly but more rain is needed. There
is a marked contrast in the condition Of
this crop compared with the brilliant
promise of last year
Apples promise a moderate Yield iudy-
ing from the blossoming. In portions of
Massachusetts. New Hampshire, and Ver-
mont winter varieties are reported to
bloom very little. Cherries, plums, Atc.
have blossomed freely in the South aud
are coming out full in the North. Black
berries and raspberrics have suffered from
winter killing in central districts. Cram
berry bogs are being drained, and on tho
drier bogs the fireworm has appeared. A
large acreage of potatoes has been plant
ed in the South. and the earlier varieties
nave appeared above ground. Planting IS
progressing in the North. Onions and
other truck are reported to be doing well.
Peas are blooming in the South. Aspara-
gus OF good quality and satisfying guam
tity is being cut.
