CiucAOo, June 8.—Tin following cron
nummary will be printed in tins week s
issue of i hi Farmer’s IP view :
As the season advances the reports of the
presence of insects in the winter wheat
Melds grow more numerous, but beyond
certain afflicted districts in Kansas,- Illi
nois, Indiana and Ohio, t he reports are of
an isolated charneter, and do not appear to
seriously threaten the general outlook for
an average crop yield. Southern Illinois
continues to send in th< most serious re
ports ns to ravages bv chinch bugs. Alex
ander, Ilond, Edwards. Jefferson and Mon
roe counties, all in Month* rn Illinois, report
great injury in many of the fields. Frank
lin and other counties, in Kansas; Fulton ,
and Highland counties, in < fliio, and How
ard county, in Indiana, report considerable
injury from chinch bugs. Grasshoppers
are reported in numerous (juantities in
W’illsonv illc county, Iowa, Howard county,
Indiana, and in Athens county, Ohio.
looking over the entire winter wheat j
belt the promise is still good for an aver- .
age yield, hut tin 1 early prom iso that the *
season was to bring forth a ‘ bumper’’crop i
will now be abandoned. The acreage !
would not warrant such an outcome, mi- !
less the conditions were everywhere ex- j
tremely favorable. Thu late returns from j
Kansas do not indicate that the former es- I
timat e, from 10 to 50 per cent, of an aver- !
age crop, will be exceeded. The state of 1
Michigan does not promise more than 85
|H*.r cent, of an average yield, while the j
average of Illinois now threatens to fall to 1
00 per cent. In Missouri, Tennessee and .
Kentucky and possibly Indiana and Ohio, >
tlie conditions are still favorable for a full i
average crop.
Turning to the spring wheat states and
territories, the conditions continue to re- j
main favorable in Iowa, Nebraska and \
Wisconsin for wheat and all the small j
grains. In Minnesota, wheat on many of
the low lands has been drowned by the re- I
cent heavy rains. On all high and well- i
drained lands the outlook continues to be <
excellent. In some portions of Dakota
fears of injury from drouth are expressed, j
Barnes county reported serious need of
rain. Cass county; the largest wheat pro
ducing county in the territory, reports the
wheat prospects never to have been more
promising. The remaining counties report
the growing grain up to fair conditions.
Harvesting will commence in Tennessee,
and it is now promised that some grain
cutting will begin the first week in June.
Serious Urolith in Texas.
Galveston, June 8.—Specials to the
News from every section of Texas report a
great drouth prevailing all over the state,
causing much suffering and loss among cat
tle and other live stock. In some sections
the small grains have been seriously dam
aged. The cotton crop is threatened, but
ns yet lias sustained no appreciable dam
age.
Jn northwestern Texas, the Pan-handle
country, the drouth is most severely felt.
Cattle are reported to be dying by thous
ands. The smaller water holes have gone
dry, and the cattle roam about in great
herds, bellowing piteously. No general
rains nave visited ti e cattle regions for
seviral months, and the spring grass being
meagre and delicicnt in nutrition, has left
the cattle in poor condition, in south
western Texas, the chief wool gl owing sec
tion of the state, the drouth is equally
severe, and many thousands of sheep have
died. The reports from Hint section are
few, hut all are of the same disastrous
tenor. In central, northern and eastern
Texas, comprising the small grains and
cotton belt, the general cry is “water;”
but owing to 11 io agricultural character of
those sections the drouth lues not yet re
sulted in serious loss or damage, but should
it prevail many days longer, crops of all I
kinds wiJJ be very seriously damaged.
I
Neediny Halit hi the NnvtlnoM.
St. Pai’l, June 8. The crop r» ports to
the Pioneer Press for the past week are not
quite so favorable in their tenor. There
has been very little rain in the northwest
during the past three weeks, and tin crops
are su He ring from drouth The chinch
hups have appear* d in large numbers in
soul hern M innesol.:. but have done lit! k
damage as yet. Gn the high ground along
the Northern Pacific wheat is beginning to
show t he (fleets oft l.c dry weal her, t hough
no serious damage is yet done. A cargo
correspondent predicts that considerable
damage will result from lack of rain for
another week. Dakota snows were vt ry
light the past wintir, and the A pi il show
ers were generally of the briefest duration.
Grnruin ( rops,
AFlo\it n.niily correspondent writes:
The fanners are complaining of had stands
in cotton, some having to replant before
getting a stand at all, wbile corn, oats, etc.,
was looking finely and doing well for the
season. In general tin farmers are buying
less on i red it. this war than they generally
do, determining, if possible, to ‘free them
selves from the clutches of merchants.
The prospects for an abundance of fruit,
especially peaches and apples, was never
better, the trees being laden with young
fruit of a healthy appearance.
P. \V. Jones, of Baker county, has too (
acres of cotton that will average half the |
knee high, which he is cultivating with
seven mules, besides his coni, potatoes, su- l
gar cam and other crops. Every hill of it I
is highly manured with compost,ami while i
he expects to gather 200 bales, an average I
crop only, lie contends there is no money j
in farming w ith free labor, raising every- j
thing consumed on the plantation except
bacon, and enough of that to supply his ta
ble all the year. Mr. Jones has about
twenty acres in pouches of every variety. |
Hu* trees are loaded down with fruit. He i
expects to commence marketing it by June j
15. Helms also plums, sand pears and
other varieties of fruit.
Tlie recent rains benefit Warren county !
£2000 by increase of the oat crop.
C rops in llurke county are reported as ,
looking and doing well since the recent
rains.
Braining I.mills,
it is a tact well known to the farmers .
that uniformly good crops can only be j
grown on a well drained soil. While a |
good start has been made in the drainage j
of our farm lands during the present gen
eration. it is only a start, and there yet re
mains in all parts of the country much ,
land which would he improved by drain- '
age. Probably under a better system of |
farming we shall see much of our upland i
drained which is not at present thought to <
need it. A large per cent, of our uplands |
are retentive of water, and slow to dry out
in the spring, so ns to be in lit condition to |
work, and the farmer must often wait till j
the cool, favorable weather of April has ,
passed and hot weather has come before j
lie can plow these lands. Under these !
conditions his team suffers with the heat
nnd heavy work of breaking the land, and j
without great care and labor it is likely to !
dry and bake in bad condition, so as to
render it impossible to grow a heavy crop,
farmers who have drained extensively !
have found many benefits from it which |
would not be thought of by those who
have no practical experience in the mat-
Ut.
his uruund.i. Hi# method of pji.venting its I { {
ravages is to Mil! tlie earth up tilioet the I
tree ten inches hi.'h late in Muy, <>r before
the time for tie borer, which is aoom. the '
miihlie of Juno. A direful examination in
August shows if any have gained u foot-
itip. \\ hen they are followed tip and de
stroyed. The trees are none over a^aiu in
a n; ml Ii. A h'liud hand will know at ;i .
glnnet if hi..v art preHenl, and n thousand
trees are teme over by him in a few flays.
Stoekimm know that nt no time wiil eat- 1
tie gain fat and Hull faster than on good
pasture in June. Thu grass is not so nutri
tions ns many other kinds of food, hut it.s
eaay digestibility makes all its nutrition
avniluliie. To make the most of this pe
riod, hou ever, it is false economy to rely
on graas alone. A few hundred pounds of
corn meal led judiciously at this time will
make more gam Li.au the same qimntit.v nt
liny fit her season.
611 the western prairies corn is for many
years tlie staple crop, and is grown success
ively until iailurf makes it unprofitable.
The’objection to Inis plan is that the soil
has no elinnee to grow n soil. Continuous
plowing makes it more compact every sea
son, and though fertility tuny not be ex
hausted, the ability to grow good corn will
be. Wheat often succeeds well oil these
compacted soils after corn has failed.
More corn can be raised per aere by
plniiting in row s only one way. The results
of experiments conducted at tlie Ohio >
experiment station showed that the best
yield was secured by planting in rows
three nnd a half feet npnrt, with one grain
every eighteen inches. Corn planted this
way on reasonably level ground can be
worked with tlie cultivator alone and kept j
clear of wei ds.
A mess of feed given to n cow w’hile she I
is being milked draws her attention, aiul
she will not bold up tlie milk as cows are
apt to do when the calf is taken from them.
'The milking can be done more thoroughly,
as well as quicker, when the cow is quietly
eating. And if fell turnips or cabbage at
this time the odor will not affect the
milk.

“I’ll never believe any o’ them funny !
papers again,” says Mr. Cray, of Chicago; i
“one would think the poetry nnd things
was crowded on them by the wagon load, J
but never a bit, ofitcaineto me with all my
advertising.” Mr. Gray is the husband of i
h clairvoyant, and himself dabbles in litera
ture. He had an inspiration. It was that
a journal to compete with newspaper
waste-baskets was a long-felt want.. Mr.
Gray’s journal would print anything not
of an immoral nature that might be sent in.
Mr. Gray’s snap consisted m the condi
tion that a yearly subscription should be
a prerequisite to authorship. Mr. Gray
now believes that tlie literary fools are ail
dead, for, as already noted, not a solitary
poet or story-teller sent in manuscript in
response to his .seductive prospectus. Mr.
Gray is simply a victim to the extraordi
nary conditions which govern the newspa
per market at present. In any other year
he would have been deluged with contri
butions. But this spring the poets are
either stricken with dumbness or frighten
ed into silence by the sneers of the news
paper humorists.

tributt'd a great deal toward the temper-j

hesitates about buying a glass of beer or
whisky when he knows that he is to get I
$1.90 in silver for his change.—St. Louis
