The hay was finally all gathered in, howevor, In fair order, nnd the crop wag abouta medium one. So far as train was concerned in harvesting, It wos not a hinderance, for another drouth set in about tho time that haying was done, and lasted until about the ilrst of tlie present month; hence tho stnall grain waa gathered and stacked In good order, the principal hin- deranco being the intense heat, which pre ‘vailed longer and morn severe than fs com- amon to this section, As is well known, tho Inte drouth, which does not seom to bo wholly ended yet, was very sovere on past= tres and corn, It stunted the corn-crop semewhat, aud caused a great falling off In the flow of milk and raised tho’ prices of eheese nnd butter te oxorbitant fig- ures, The late ralug, however, finve been quite o help to past- ures, nnd have; improved the corn crup, somewhat, but much more rain is needed, and ufiless Jt comes soon the benefits re- ceived from the lite showers will not be Inst. ing. To stim Jt all up, the season ting hod qnany drawbieks, and never withthe my ro- membrance has thure buen a season which hag bean so unsettled and uncertain for the maturity of the differont orops as the pres- entone, But, take it altogethor, the result lu tha niain has beon pretty satisfactory, and the iarniers of this section eannet complain very bitterly over the ottcome of this sea- son's farming.
