The Vermont Tribune, Ludlow, Friday, August 9, 1889 Weathersfield Center 8/9/1889 The crops have come forward particularly fast, except corn. Hay left out during the storm was ruined; grain was also damaged to some extent. There is much hay to cut yet, and no weather to cut it. The weather report for July, as made up here: Highest temperature, 8th, 85; lowest temperature, 15th, 58; range, 27; mean, 68.5; mean for July past fourteen years, 70; cloudy or partly cloudy days, 21; days when rain fell, 19; fair days, 10; clear days 1; rain-fall, inches, 3.50; winds, southerly. More observers for Vermont are wanted by the New England Meteorological Society. At present they are scattering and the work is not productive of so valuable results as it would be if there were more stations. The requirements are such as any one can attain to. Write to L. G. SCHULTZ, Cambridge, Mass., for full particulars. Fred DURKEE has sold out to his grandfather and gone to Charlestown, N. H., as clerk in a hotel. S. S. NICHOLS has gone to work for H. P. TOLLES. Rev. J. N. PERRIN is away at his home in Berlin, attending a re-union of the PERRIN family, which is in progress at his father's house--the home of the first PERRIN to settle in this state, just one hundred years ago. Elder LORD peached here to a small audience, last Sunday. Charlie GRISWOLD has quit work for Edgar CHAMBERLAIN, after more than a year of service. Rev. Carleton HAZEN of Braintree will supply the pulpit here, next Sunday. Transcribed by Ruth Barton -- Ruth Barton mrgjb@sover.net Dummerston, VT
