From the .Monthly Report of the Depur/inent of
Agriculture.
Contlilioii of Crops in •July*
COIIN.
The increase ill the breadth of corn
is greater than the doorcase in acre
age of wheat. It nmy be placed to 5
per cent., or about 1,7400 acres
Theio appears to be a very slight in
crease in New England ; about 2 per
cent in the Middle States ; a decrease
in the cotton Statos east of the Missis
sippi; an advance of 7 or 8 per cent,
in Southern States west of the Missis
sippi, and a still larger increase in tlio
heart of tho west. It is estimated at
!©• per cent, in Illinois, 10 in Indiana,
f) in Ohio, 2 in Michigan, 8 in Wiscon
sin, 20 in Minnesota, If) in lowa, 25
in Nebraska, aud 15 in Kansas.
In condition this crop is above an
average in almost every Western
State, Nebraska is a decided excep
tion. The New England and the
Middle States present very uniform
returns, full of high promise for this
crop. In some cases, as in Columbia
and Orleans, New York, the prospect
is better than for several years. In
the Carolines wet weather has affect
ed tho appearance of corn, and pre
vented its cultivation and the destruc
tion of grass and weeds. In the oth
er eotton States tho crop is vigorous,
of good color, and fino promise. In
parts of Alabama it is less advanced
than usual. In Monroe, Mississippi,
corn has been drowned out on low'
lauds by excess of rain, and some of
it replanted. Growth is at some points
in Mississippi and Arkansas somewhat
obstructed by grass in consequence of
wet weather ; while in Claiborne coun
ty, Mississippi, drought threatens to
shorten the crop.
Throughout the West tho indica
tions of a good crop has never boon so
general since the inauguration of of
ficial crop returns. “Never so many
acres of line corn in the country,” as
reported by McDonough, Illinois,
would boa fair report of many a coun
ty in all the great corn-producing
States. A few exceptions are reported.
The effects of drought is lamented in
Knox, Grundy, and Joe Davies, Illli
nois ; in Clay, Missouri, and in Jeffer
son, where corn “is tasseling out, and
not a foot high ; ’ in Page, Benton,
and Appanoose, lowa. “A poor stand
and unpromising appearance” is re
ported in Kiley, Kansas. In White,
Indiana, the crop is represented as al
most a total failuro. Cut-worms, iu
Highland, Ohio, have almost entirely
destroyed many fields.
COTTON.
The increase of acreage of cotton,
as indicated by the returns of county
correspondents, averages 12 per cent - ,
aud aggregates nearly a million of
acres. It is almost literally true that
“the people are devoting all their en
ergies to the culture of cotton.” Tho
condition of the crop is so far favora
ble for a good yield—fully an average
in Georgia, Alabama, Louisiana, aud
Arkansas ; slightly below an average
in the Carolinas, Florida, Mississippi,
Texas, and Tennessee. North Caroli
na had a surplus of rain in June,
especially in the counties of Martin,
Carteret, Edgecombe, Hertford, Beau
fort, Greene, Rowan, and McckFcn
burgh. The plants is late aud small
in parts of South Carolina, but thrif
ty, growing rapidly in recent favora
ble weatner. To defective seed or
drought in planting time, a bad stand
is attributed in many places, and
growth has been retarded by exces
sive rain. Heavy rains in Georgia
havo done some damage. In Clayton
and Spaulding counties fields have
been badly infested with lice, which
threaten failure in some instances. To
the influence of commercial fertilizers
is attributed tire promising appearance
of the plant in many fields. In Ala
bama the crop is generally flourishing
though local reports are quito varia
ble. Complaint of injuries from hail
or rain storms are reported in Dtiilas,
Macon and Etowah, and from lice in
Sumter and Randolph. While the
crop is reported as backward in s mo
counties, it is “two weeks in advance
of last season” in Conecuh. In Mis
sissippi heavy rains and cool nights
have proved unfavorable in the comi
ties of Neshoba, Washington, De So
to, Yalabusha, and La Fayette, lice
are reported in De Soto aud LaFay
eite. Heavy rains, more favorable for
the growth of grass than of cotton,
and obstructive of clean culture, have
beet* injurious in Arkansas. In the
Red River region of Texas cotton is
generally flourishing, with some inju
ry from lice.
Neither the caterpillar nor boll
worm has appeared and they are few
draw backs which a few weeks of fa
vorable weather cannot repair. With
an average season the present acreage
will be nearly three and a-half million
bales ; with one of the extraordinary
length of the last, the product will be
little short of four millions—which
was of so remarkable character for
continued growth and late picking
that our October estimate, a reasona
ble one at the time, of 2,700,000 bales,
was advanced at the close of the sea
son to 3,000,000.
OATS.
This crop is looking better than
would be expected in view of the heat
and drought of the season. Its condi
tion is a full average in about half the
States, including all of New' England,
(except Vermont.) New Jersey, Penn- ■
sylvania, Maryland, Virginia, North
Carolina, Alabama, Mississippi, Ar
kansas, Tennessee, West Virginia,
Kentucky and Oregon; it is less
promising in New York, South Caro
lina, Georgia, Florida, Texas, and all
the Western States, in which the de
ficit ranges from 9 to 23 per cent.
During the season of growth there
was abundant rain on tho Atlant r
coast between Now Jersey and Non 1
Carolina, and throughout tho moun
tain section of tho South and on the
Alleganian plateau. In Ohio Valley
drought ana heat have proved injuri
ous. Tho quality will generally be
very good.
TOBACCO.
Thero is an increase of acreage in
Virginia and Kentucky. Our returns
show an aggregate increase of about
5 per cent. A slight decrease is indi
cated in Ohio, Indiana, and Missouri.
The appearance of tho crop is superior
iu Kentucky, Virginia, North Caroli
na, aud Georgia. Drought has in
jured it on the north side of the Ohio.

I The Cln oniele & Sentinel says i
Wo have not the exact figures as to
! tho amount supplied from this city,
J but feel quito confident that it will
! reach as high as thirty thousand tons
If to this bo added eight thousand
; tons manufactured in the State and
I brought here from other points, we
j shall have the full total of consump
; tion for the present crop of one hun
dred thousand tons.
These fertilizers cost tho planters on
average of eighty dollars a ton, deliv
ered on the plantations. This would
give the enormous total of eight mil
lions of dollars for the crop of Geor
gia alon". W ith cotton at 15 cents it
would require one hundred and fif
teen thousand bales to pay for these
fertilizers.
Three hundred thousand bales is,
we think a fair estimate for the crop
of tho stato. If this estimate be ap
proximately correct, it will bo seen
i that mure than one third of the ontire
crop will be required to pay guano
bills.

A letter from Bucks county, Pa-, to 1
tho Philadelphia Dost says :
Notwithstanding the extreme scar
city of hands iu this region, tho har
vest work has progressed rapidly. In
this neighborhood, Miss Watson, a
delicate young lady of sixteen sum-'
rners, with a span of horses, has cut
twenty-five acres of wheat and forty
acres of grass, and will cut as mauy
acres of oats iu a few days, the pres
ent week. It is a great triumph for
human skill in the perfection of labor
saving implements. At this date Miss!
Watson can eut more lodged and tan- j
gled wheat with her span ol horses 1
and reaper in one day than your cor- ]
respondent could have done in ten i
days forty years ago with tho sickle, j
and who was then in tlie vigor of
youth, and among the swiftest to;
wield that old-time implement.
The New York Tribune, comment
ing on tho above, says :
Weil, here is a young woman who,
instead of attending conventions and
making speeches, and signing peti
tions, aud sending her autograph to
Tli. Tilton, E-op, lias really done some
thing to demonstrate practically that
women are as good as men, and little
better. Name, Miss Watson; age
lti; habitation, Nowportville, Bucks
j county, Pennsylvania ; exploit, cutting
! with a span of horses and a reaper,
| 25 acres of wheat, and 40 do. of grass.
i When last heard" from Miss M atson
was about to crown her achievements
!by cutting 40 acres of oats. This is
j what we like. This is something to
| the purpose ; there is no theory itero.
; Forty Conventions might havo deba
| ted forty days aud as many nights
1 whether tho grand cutting capacity of
! woman is equal naturally to the grand
] cutting capacity of man, and, alter
immense wrangling, havo come to no
conclusion worth mentioning. Our
Bucks county heroine doesn’t talk, but
she goes and does it. What a timely
lesson.
From the IVlcgraph & .Messenger,
The Great I’armer Coy.
We received yesterday tho following
communication iu regard to ti e farm
ing operations of an extraordinary
youth in tho Western part of this
county. Wo wish there were ten
thousand such in the State of Georgia:
Macon, August 3d, 1870.
Mr. Local: Having just returned
from my little farm, twelve miles West
' of Macon, and known as the “Perry
| Noel’s Place,” I propose to tell your
readers wliat my little son, Charles
liviuo McL., has been doing there.—
He is not yet 14 years old. He works
one old lazy mule, and works out for
| his negro neighbors when he can,
who give him two days’ work with
' their hoes for one day’s plowing.—
They find themselves —he feeds his
mule and eats his own frog. In this
way ho has 10 acres of corn and peas
on new ground, without manure, ex
cept four acres, which had a handful
of scrapings thrown in each hill.
1 wish to state that ho takes advan-
tage of the hill slopes, near a spring
branch and plows horizontally, or
around the kuolls. Ho has five acres
of very tine cotton —Dixon and Peeler
varieties—not manured, which I think
will make one bale per acre ; a garden
filled with all kinds of vegetables in
full vigor; potatoes, tomatoes, okra,
late corn, small table peas, butter
beans, onions, herbs, etc., etc., all of
which are as good as anybody’s. Ilis
li acres of sweet potatoes are looking
fine. His patch for seed from cut
ting sis piepared. His turnip patch
is likewije prepared for fall use.
His melon patch, i of an acre, 120
hills, don’t seem to do well from the
effects of drouth. His peanut patch
—SO feet square—looks well. Three
acres he hail in oats are now eaten
down, where he turns in the g«jse,
young cattle, and sometimes his mule,
it is uow being prepared for wheat
ground. Two acres adjoining this, is
(rood pastur, with 32 rows of millet at
the upper end and flourishing. The
remainder is for a rye patch. He be
gan to cut it on the 20tU of June, and
cut it every ten days for the stock and
mule. A late bean patch, with com
growing for the beans to run up on,
has been in the grass, but will be clean
ono day this week. Tho rest of tho
placo is free from grass. His corn is
laid by and will, I think, make 15
bushels per acre.
He rises early, foods his mule, eats,
goes to work at 7 und stops at 11
o’clock-, a.m., till 3 r.M.jthen works till
night. During intervals, ho makes
things “howl” on his piano —“ Capt.
Jonks” being his favorite. He is “na
tive and to the manor born,” and
works as I direct him. The whole
cost so far, exclusive of 10 bushels of!
corn, is just 81 50. Boat this who
can. Yours very truly, X.
A Beacttful Idea.—Far away a
moug tho Alleghanies, there is a
spring so small that a single ox, in a
summer’s day could drain it dry. It
steals its unobtrusive way among tho
hills, till it spreads out into a beauti
ful Oliio. Thence it stretches away a
thousand miles, leaving on its banks
more than a hundred villages and cit
ies and many a cultivated farm, and
bcai'ing a half a thousand steamboats.
Then joining tho Mississippi, stretches
away and away some twelve hundred
miles more, till it falls into the emblem
of eternity. It is one of the greatest
tributaries of the ocean, which, obedi
ent only to God, shall roll and roar
till the angel, with one foot on the sea
and tho other on the land, shall lift up
his hand and swear that time shall be
no longer. 8o with immortal influ
ence. It is a rill—a rivulet—a river
—an ocean—and as boundless aud
fathomless as eternity.
New Jersey Sherbet.—Cut out the
red part of two or three ripe water
melons, work it with a spoon until it
becomes a thick, smooth pulp ; thin it
with water, sweeten to your taste with
loaf sugar, and add lemon juice or
| rose water to flavor it; a little white
I wine is an improvement. W hen well
; mixed, strain the liquid into a pitcher
i and set it on ice till wanted ; then fill
; the glasses, and the boverage will bo
found very agreeable and refreshing.
