Locally, at least, everything points to a _tremendous shortage in potatoes and corn and oats, with a less than average yield of hay. A good many of my neighbors who ord'narily raise all the potatoes they need and have from one hu to. three hundred bushels to sell will, this year, have .to buy for the!r own But there something mere ln the ason than merely -unusual weather conditions,—something _sinister .and, to me, inexplicable. There are:forces working, this summer, which hitherto haye been absent or held in abeyance. Take, for instance, garden peas. When my crop failed I ascribed it at first to’ the drought of June and a larger than usual infestation of the .pea weevil. But wider observation has shown that these were not the causes. An acre patch sown by 'a biz market gardener nearer the city, and.on low could dry, failed even more miBerably than mine. I have heard of another: farmer in the canning district .andi sewing forty acres, whose vines all| died without setting even a pod.
