AGRICULTURAL. 3fc-j. .*» ■ ■“ 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. (fiinmupiiuti ol i'ettillzers. 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. Women :ts Id wot! an Hen - m ac lita I Di'inousbalivu of (Sic i act. 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.
