Rural New Yorker Notes Crop Failures And Large New York Harvests

A Rural New Yorker correspondent cites last season's potato failure where the previous year's ground was reused. Despite seed sublimation, tubers were Beachby. The western New York vine yard area totals 50 000 acres with about 8 009 carloads of fruit, the largest yield on record. Gathering the crop employs 20 000 people. A clover and sheep pasture plan is suggested to enrich soil while removing milkweed. Institutes and farmers meetings are widely beneficial. A move to consolidate Amherst agricultural bodies combines college, state station, and national experiment station. Lettuce rot in greenhouses is blamed on dry air and improper seed bed conditions.
