Washington, October 10.???In the crop re ports for October the returns of corn average higher for condition than any in the past Jive years, but not so high as in any of the re markable corn years irom 1S75 to 1379. The general average is 93 which is very nearly tho average pf any of the series of ten years aud indicates about 26 bushels per acre, In a breadth approximating 70,000,000 acres. The region between the Mississippi and tbe Rocky mountains again pre sents the highest figures, which in every slate rise a little above the normal standard of full condition. No state cast of Mississippi returns conditions high as 100. Tho lowest figures are 73 in We6t Virginia; Ohio, 75; Louisiana, 74; Texas, 80, and South Caro lina S3. The reduction is caused by the drouth. There is complaint of the drouth in the Ohio valley and in the AtJautic and gulf states, but not enough to reduce seriously the yield. The early plan ted corn is everywhere mstuied. Late plantings in southern state* have suffered for want of summer rains and will be light aud not well filled. Very little injury has been done by frosts. Thero was frost in Vermont on the 25th of August, r.nd in several border states about the middle of September, with slight injury to late corn. The damage by chinch bugs and otbor insects has been slight. Tbe wheat crop will exceed Ibatoflast year by ubout one hundred mil lions of bushels. The spring was slow and lute, w ith the results thus far .confirming the iudications'of former reports. Tho yield per acre will averoge about 13J<J bushels. The quality of the present wheat cron is generally very good, especially in the eastern and mid dle states. On the western slope of the Alle ghenies, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota^ some depreciation in quality is noted. In Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri and Kansis the avorago for the ontiro breadth is 95 per cent. Indicated yield of rvo is about 13 bushels per acre, aud the quality, is superior. The yield of oats is a little above tbo average, tbe yield being obout 27 bushels per acre nnd making Die crop approximate 570,000,000 bushels ot good quality. The bar ley crop makes a yield of nearly 23 bushels per acre, and the product exceeding 50,000,050 bushels of average quality, The condition of buckwheat averages 87, indicating a crop slightly under an average. The condition of the potato crop is represented by 83, which is 5 points lower than in October of last year, aud 2 points lower thon in 1879 and 1882, and Ike same as in 1680. The October return* of cotton indicate n reduction of nearly 8 points in' tbe average of condition, from 82 5-105 to 74 7-100, ns the result of continued drouth in orrc&ting the development and drying the vitality of tho plant. Tho prospect of tbe top cron is reduced to a minimum. The drouth has been general nnd its effect is mani test in every state. Of the successive crons only two have averaged a lower condition lu October 1881 and 1883, when averages wero 65 and 68 respectively. The average was 88 in the great crop year of 1882. The state aver- oges arc as follows: Virginia, 81; North Caro lina, 74; South Carolina, 80: Georgia,. 79; Florida, 84: Alabama, 74; Mississippi, 76; Louisiana, 77; Texas, 62; Arkansas, 65; Ten- nossecf 80. Returns of total cats mate of yield per acre in fractions of boles indicates an average rate ol yield ot 36-100 of a bale per acre. , THE DRUMMING TREASURY.
