Pumpkin vincs in blossom umi young pumpkins, six inches in diameter, grow, and sulad, oabbage, radishes, and buats half grown, Becond erop ; ütrawlierries ripe and groen " And again : " The weather continuos moderate. We httve had oomiideroble rain. Thursday, Deo. lst - Thunder and rain. Thnrsday, Dec. 'd - still moderate and olear." And, on Deo, LOth, tbe same author says; " Winter lias oonamsneed very nioderatoly. On .Momííiy Énorering we had a light snow. Tuesday night we had white frost. The Weathef i.s stiil plasant.
