Friday morning We got the first killing
frost of the season, which blackened
SQUASH leaves and other tesder plants.
On the low lands heavy fog took out
much OF the sting of the frost, and on
the high lands there was little or none.
The crops are now so well out of the
way that little damage was done. Sweet
corn is being rushed to the factory
rapidly now. The crop is late but
heavy, and the holding off of the frost
has given a good chance to take care OF
it. There is little il any possibility OF
loss of corn by frost now.
