Aroostook county Is right in luck this
year according to the storles that are

affect the crops, henre it is very differ

the greater portion of it.

exists there now" said AIR. Wiggin Tues
day. "The hay crop has been good, the
harvest of grain has been bountiful and
II wGs placed in the barns in good nondi-
ton. and the potato CROPS are turning out
we'll. Then the apples are as rosy and
juicy as ever. The apple crop will be
great one the trees hanging loaded. The
fruit has beautiful color on account of
the great amount of sun there has been
this summer. Money is plenty and the
people are feeling that God has been good
to them this year."
"Win the potato crop be up to the aver
Iages"
"There will not be the same amount
to the acre of the usual years, but the ex-
ira acreage will make the crop fully as
large as ever. The POTATOES are OF good
size and are fine in quality, there being
but few small ones. They are as mesly
and nice as ever ticklsd the palate of an
Aroostook farmer. Now IL they can find
good market for the potatoes they will
be indeed fortunate for the year, for their
barns are full Of hay"
