Consolidation of the Reports of
Crops, etc. for tlie Month of
May, 1878.
Dkpatmknt op AoHici i.rriu:,)
Atlanta, Ga., June 10, 1878. j
cor.N.
The reports from tie State at large
ebow that this crop was very promis
ing on Ist June. lu every section,
excepting South,east Georgia, it was
in better than an average condition,
and much Letter than last year at the
same time. The rains have not been
sufficiently copious to secure such
rapid increase in size of stalks and
early maturity as was anticipated,!
but no material injury lias resulted, J
and the promise is hut little short
of the most sanguine expectations. I
In Southeast Georgia, the prospect is
not quite so good as elsewhere, ow
ing to cool and dry weather in the
early part of May, and dry, hot
weather the latter half. This sec
tion usuallv has several inches more
rain anually than the mean for the j
State, but in the past month the rain
fall was nearly three fourths of an J
inch less than the mean for the State.
In the remaining sections, the seas
ons for the month were reported—j
with one or two excep'ions—as fav
orable. The condition of the corn I
crop for the State at large was 7 per
cent, better than an average, and 10
per cent, better than last year.
OATS.
This all-important crop has yield
ed—where harvested before Ist June
—1 per cent, less than an average,!
and the portion still to be harvested'
premises 5 per cent, less than an av-1
erage. It has not entire y escaped
rust —the injury from this source
amounting to 0 per cent. In a large
majority of cases, “no rust in oats” is
noted, and it is quite probable that
in nearly if not quite all these cases,
the variety sown was the red or yel-
I v. rust-proof oat.
In Southwest and East Georgia,
where this variety is almost exclus
ively grown, the injury from rust was
respectively and and 2 per cent; in
North 8, and Middle Georgia !) per
cent. The falling off in the oat crop
is due chiefly to the comparative fail
urc ot the winter and spring sown.
Many correspondents say “fall sown
caG fine-—.spring sown, a failure,” or
•■nit off by drouth—won’t get high
enough to cut,” and generally the
rurt is confined to the 'spring sown.
1 hccxper.encc of the last several years
fit's demonstrated that the variety
known as yellow or red rust-proof is
all that is claimed for it—practically
rust proof, and that spring sown oats
are too uncertain to be relied on for
a crop. On t! e one hand, is the dan
ger of drouth in May, and on the
other, rust, which is generally (level
eqied under circumstances not othcr-
V ise unfavorable to a good yield: i. e.,
when the air is moist and warm.—
Farmers should profit by these teach
ing~ and sow the oat crop in No
vember, October or September, ac
cording to latitude—as they plant
corn in February, March or April;
that ' to say, when the main crop
of com is planted in April, oats
should be sown in September; if corn
in M arch then oat: in October; and
if corn in February, oats in Novem
ber, or earlier.
By early fall rotting we reduco
ti e danger of winter killing to a
minimum, and at the same time sc
cme more rapid growth and earlier
devclopemcnt in the spring --so that
the crop is'i articallv safe, so far as ii
depends on seasons, before the moist
ure from tl e spring rains l a disaj>-
peared; and that critical period of it.
growth—when it r most susceptible
to rust—is sooner passed, and the
ianger of rust greatly lessened. It
may be safely aflinued that no crop
we grow in this donate is more un
certain than spring sow n oats, and
none more certain than fall sow;:.
WHEAT.
The yield of wheat — o far as Iran
ested up to Ist of June— is less than
an average—in North dcorgia, 25!
per cent.; m Middle Georgia. l(j per
cent.; in Southwest Georg; . t pet
cent., and in East and .Mid o- Geor.
gia. usually the most certain, have
fallen further below an average r ich!
than the other sections named. Tills
re-observations made in this t -itv.
that during the month ot \pril
(though the rainfall was less t< ■ ■ u:
average quantity) the temporal .re
was higher and moisture in th ,t
--mosphere greater than the ;uc . fp
for this section—two cireuiurta: .. _
favorable to the development of rust. |
2d. The wheat growers of the,
Northern and Middle sections l ave
not been so careful in the selections
of early and hardy varieties of seed
wheat, as the farmers of the Southern !
sections of the State, where repeated
failures, on account of rust, have
more effectually taught them the im
portance of selecting such varieties
The “Nicaranga,” a variety intro
duced several years since by Mr. 0.
D. l>luck, of C'ampbellton, has again
vindicated its claims as a rust-proof
wheat, It hast not rusted in the last
six vears. The ‘Earl} Red May,
the “Purple Straw,” and '.he “Ratny,”
are also mentioned by reporters as
having escaped tho rust. The last
named is a small grained, very early,
wiiite variety—tho result of careful
selection by lion. T. F. Rainey, of
Etiavill", Georgia.
The average yield iu the State is
87, —13 percent, below an average —
about the same as laet year ; but as
the acreage was 18 per cent, greater
than in 1877, it is safe to say that the
aggregate yield is materially greater.
Those farmers who have seed wheat
on hand of the varieties named above,
or others that have uniformly escaped
rust, will benefit the public, as well as
Uiomselvi'B, by reserving aud offering
for sale their entire crops.
COTTON.
The stand is somewhat deficient in
Noitii Georgia, but in the state at
large is good, and the condition of the
plant as to bize, work, etc , is G per
cent better than an average.
The seasons have beeu very propi- j
tions, and farmers generally have
their fields in good order.
The plant is earlier than usual, by
perhaps Bor 10 days. Cotton blooms
were reported as early as 20th May
in Southern Georgia.
SHEET.
There was an inciea3e in the clip
of wool of 2 pet cent, over last year.
The reports show that 8 per cent,, j
of the stock of 6heep were killed by
[ dogs, and 3.5 per cen. died of disease
in tho last tvvelvo months. This loss
; of 8 per cent, by dogs, though still
j leaving a very iarge margin of profit,
j has the effect to prevent investments
iu sheep, and thus keep this most
profitable branch of husbandry can
stantly in tho back ground.
There is now no constitutional ob
stacle in the way of such legislation
! for its protection, as has long been
; needed, and if the farmers of th
1 State desire such legislation their
wishes should be made known to
their representatives.

Valuable Receipts and Hints.
Rice Pie.— Take cold rice, cooked
in milk ; add sufficient c/eatti to make
quite thin; mash it with a wooden
or silvir spoon till fire from lumps.
Beat up four eggs very light—yolks
and whites separately; sweeten to
suit your taste, and pour in the eggs
—tho whites last; stir well; cover a
deep custard or pumpkin pie-plate
with pastry, pour in the lice, aud
bake, but not long enough to make
the custard watery, llice pie should
be made thick, and eaten when
fresh, but not till after it is cold.—
Children are fond of it, and may bo
allowed as much as they wish.
Tomato Soup. —Some think it es
sential to have beef, or some other
kind of meat, in the preparation of
tomato soup; but that is a mistake.
An excellent soup can be made as
follows: One pint of canned tomatoes,
or fresh front the garden, half a pint
of water—stew l."> minutes; add pep
per, salt, and a little butter. Then
stir in a tablespoonful of pulverized
: crackers mixed with a little milk.—
! Let this come to a boil, then add a
• pint of milk. Boil the whole togeth
! er about three minutes, and serve hot
with butter crackers or toasted light
bread. While this is not equal to
i soup made of okra and tomatoes
i boiled with beef it is a very palatable
1 article.
Camphor.— This is used in many
; famines for alleviating pain and cm
jmg seres. It is a nervous irritant,
i betedes being a deadly poison when
> taken in undue quantity. \\ hen
used in excess it so excites the non
j ous svstem as sometimes to cause
! death, and on this account it should
not be used without first consulting a
physician.
Writting dimmed by age, may be
restored by applying a weak solution
cf prnssiate of ]>otash in water; ap
ply with a camel's hair pencil, and
the ink will again assume its color. |
Cos vi. Ash is.— The lest purpose
to which coal ashes can be applied,
in town or country, is making gar
den-walks. If well laid down, no
weeds or grass will grow, and by
use thev become solid and more utir
able than bricks.
To Clean White Paint. —Take a
sma 1 quantity of fine whiting on a
damp piece of flannel; rub gentiy
over tlie solid surface, and the effect
will almost equal its original purity.
CiTiitANT Cake. — Beat half a pound
of fresh butter to a cream; take one
pound and a quarter of sugar, and
one and a quarter of currants washed
and picked, and beat np the whites
and yolks of six eggs; put in the
sugar by degrees, then a pound of
sifted flour and the currants ; add the
juice and grated rind of a lemon.-
Beat the mixture till very light, and
bake it in pans.
There are two kind? of Commun
ists — the idle laborer, who wants an
even divide, and the Shylock who
wants tho whole.
