THE CROPS OF GEORGIA.
What the Commissioner of Agriculture
Says About Them.
Atlanta, Aug. 6.—Commissioner
Henderson lias issued the following
bulletin regarding the condition of
crops at the present da'c:
The seasons since July i have been
all that could be desired in nearly
every section of the state. In some
counties rains have been excessive but
only a lew cases of actual injury to
crops have been reported
CQXTOX.
The condition of the cotton crop has
steadily advanced since the date ol
July r, and has become more nearly
uniform in the different sections of the
state. The condition in those counties
in which it was lowest a month
ago has very greatly improved, while
in those reporting very high condi
tion then, the reports are more sober
and the estimates somewhat lower.
It is generally true that both high

An unhealthy woman is rarely, if ever*
beautiful. The peculiar diseases to which bo
many of the box are subject, are prolific
causes of pale sallow faces, blotched with un
sightly pimples, dull, lustreless eyes and ema
ciated forms. Women so afilteted, can be per
manently cured by using Dr. Pierce’s Favorite
Prescription; and with tho restoration of
health comes that beauty which, combined
with good qualities of head and heart, makes
women angels of loveliness.

and low conditions are somewhat ex
aggerated, by hopes on the one hand
and apprehensions on the other. One
month ago the general average con
dition for the entire state was 8-'!; the
average now (Aug. 1) is 90—7 points
higher. On Aug. I, 1888, the condi
tion was NO— 1 point lower.
The improvement in the condition
of the cotton crop is due, of course,
to the general prevalence of good sea'
sous—plenty of rain and sun heat,
with warm nights. The rains are
now excessive, and it is now appro
headed that a severe drought will
occur during August, which would
prove very damaging, owing to the
succulent condition of the plants.
CORN AND OTHER CROPS.
The corn crop promises the la r gcst
yield within ten years past. The
droughts that occurred in April and
May have been relieved by copious
general rains in good time to enable
the crop to recover. Farmers arc
enthusiastic over the bright promises
of a rich harvest. The same remarks
will apply with more or less force to
all the minor crops cultivated. A
glance at die tabular report which
follows will show that every crop,
without exception, has made a mate
rial advance in condition. Corn,
lrom 90 to 101; rice ,from 90 to 94;
sugar cane, from S7 lo 94 ; sweet po
tatoes, from 70 to 92.
Melons have not yielded as large
profits ns last year, the reports show
ing 91 as compared with those of the
same date in 1888.
VKAC.IIiS AND DRAPES.
The promised yield of these two
fruit crops of one and two months
ago has been even more than realized,
especially of peaches- The yield both
in quantity and quality, has probably
never been equaled in the history ol
the state, and the profits have been
exceedingly satisfactory.
It is said that the mayor ot Tacoma,
Washington territory, has written to
the Mayor of Boston, to send out all
the marriageable women who arc will
ing to go out and become the wives of
men of Washington, and the prospect
is that the supply will be equal to the
demand.— Ex.
And now there will be a hegira of

It is likely the latter will flee to the
fastnesses of the mountains, lint if
one 01 those Massachusetts old maids

then be cheated out of a husband.
Trouble is anticipated. The man who
