White potatoes were a disappointment. The yield was slightly above the average, but did not come up to earlier expectations. Blight, drought, and insects al Itook heavy toll in both commercial and farm patches. Sweet potatoes produced better than last year or the 10-year average, but the quality is not quite as good. The quality and yield of tobacco is better than was expected earlier in the season and the crop has ben honsed under, very favorable condt tions. The apple crop, so far as farm or

acreage of both wheat and rye is considerably increased over last year. The weather for October was exceptionally favorable to these crops and soil conditions could hardly be improved upon. The yield of corn varied greatly in nearly all sections of the state, and especially in the area covered by the heavy frost on the morning of June 23. In this section the drought In July and August also seemed to have been more severe than in the-other sections. Much of the corn that was planted late was used for ensilage. Not a great deal of the crop had been husked at the first of the month, but the shortage of feed started many farmers somewhat earlier than usual. The quality is greatly above the average and the feeding value of the crop is considerably above last year's. Stocks of old corn on farms are quite low. y The yield of buckwheat was cut con-
