THE WORLD'S SUPPLY AND CONSUMATION
—EFFECTS OF TUB FLOODS,
From the New York Produce Exchange.]
The winter wheat crop in Ohio,
Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana, Mis
souri and Michigan, estimating
southern Illinois at 10,000,000 bushels,
was 81,1100,000 in 1870, 80,000,000 bush
els in 1871, and 87,000,000 bushels in
1872, with a probable increase over
those amounts in the years 1873 and
1874, which were exceptionally favor
able years for winter wheal. Even if
the damage by the late storms shall
be no more than 23 to 30. per cent, in
deterioration and quantity, there will
lie a loss of about 27,000,000 bushels.
The New York linllctin states tho
area of the storm licit as 100,000 miles,
which embraces about 37( per cent. of
the areuseeded to wheat iu this coun
try. From this it may bo inferred
that one-third of the wheat crop of
the United States lias been subject to
whatever injury this extraordinary
rainfall Ims inflicted.
It isono thing, however, to ascer
tain Hie proportion of the crop ex
posed b> injury, and quite another to
knowhow far t lie exposed grain has
been injured. Upon this latter point,
tho information has been thus far
very imperfect, and the facts can be
only guessed at. The exteutof inju
ry to the quality of grain depends
very greatly upon Die future course
of tile weather. Some wheat is al
ready sprouted ; but t hat kind of in
jury is not represented as by any
means general. Suoti as is cut and
in the held can hardly have escaped
the long exposure to wet without
more or less Injury. That which is
standing must Ik- badly beaten down ;
but the extent of the damage sustain
ed by “laid” wheat always depends
very much upon the weather.
The wheat crop of the United States
in |s72 was 246,960,990 bushels; in
1873, 287,U00, 000 bushels; and in 1874,
300,000,000 bushels. Tho July report
of the condition of the wheat crop,
aud this made from data gathered ire
tore the rain storm and flood, was on
winter wheat 20 per cent, below an
average, and including spring wheat,
18 per cent, below tm average. The
August report cannot but. increase
the rate per cent, of Die deficiency;
23 per cent, on 300,000,000 bushels is
00,000,000 bushels, and 18 per cent, off
is 54,000,000 bushels, leaving 240,000,-
000 to 210, 000,0tt0 bushels for consump
tion, seed and export, but. if these
rates per cent, ire taken oil Die aver
age wheat crop of the last three years,
say 280,000,000 bushels instead of 300,-
000,000 bushels, Die result, would be
very considerably diminished.
The population of the United States
based on the census of 1870, and the
ratio of increase that had prevailed
from 1790 to 1860, is now in 1875 about
43,000,000 to 44,000,000. Estimating it
at 43,000,000, with a consumption per
capita of live bushels of wheat for
alimentary food, the aggregate re
quirement for this purpose would be
1215,009,000 bushels, and for the seed
ing of the upwards of 20,000,000 acres
I usually devoted to the growth of
■ wheat at one-half bushel per acre,
! would require 30,000,000 bushels, or
tm aggregate requirement for alimen
tary food and seed of 245,000,000 bush
els. It is more than probable with
the damage by the July storms to the
winter wheat, that the surplus of
; wheat the United States will have for
! export from the crop of 1875 will bo
I greatly circumscribed as compared
j with several of the more immediately
j preceding years ; and it is barely pos
sible that the surplus that can bo
I spared for export will bo limited to
i the surplus of the crop of 1874, left
over at Die r! ,se or the crop year
! ended August 31, 1875.
; The average wl -at crop of the Uni
ted Kingdom is. ii-.-sseed, about 12,-
1 700,txitt qts. or lin '>oo,ooo bushels, and
I her consumption about 22,000,000 qrs.
ior 176,000,000 bushels. The area un
der wheat, in the British Isles for Die
j crop of 1875, is less than the usual av
erage, aud, with the damage by the
j July storms and rust, will probably
give an under average out turn, re
quiring an import of 80,000,000 to 90,-
ooo,(XX) bushels of foreign wheat.
France lias a very considerable sur
plus left over from the crop Of 1874,
which she has not diminished by ex
port, us Iter imports of foreign wheat
at the close of the prerent crop year
will have exceeded tier exports.
The indications are that the surplus
wheat of Russia for export will be
below her average of 50,000,000 bush
els, and in one year of the last ten
iter surplus exported was as low as
33,000,000 bushels, and in one year—
her maximum one it was 73,000,000
! bushels. , _
Belgium, Holland and Germany
promise a full wheat crop in 1875,
while Hungary and Austria and the
provinces, it is believed from the re
ports, will be under the average. The
first two require an annual average
import of about 13,000,000 bushels of
wheat.

COLUMBUS, GA., SUNDAY, AUGUST 15, 1875.
Lit lag Alone.
it may be all very lino to bo an an
gel and with the angels stand, but
thisrheitig a hermit and livihg alone
is not quite so flue. At tho present
writing we don’t know much about
the angel business, but as to living
alone “we know how it is ourselves.
For two long dreary weeks wo have
tried it. For two long dreary weeks
wo have been the only soul in the
house. We have had no one to love
us—no one toon-hug. All alone we
went to bed, not to us a word was
said. We got up in the morning,just
ns quietly as wo retired at night.
There wasn’t much house-work to do,
and barn chores didn’t consume
much time. For tho first few days
wo studied economy and boarded our
self. We soon got tired of eating the
outside slice of bread at every meal,
and throw tho loaf away and bought
crackers. Remembering the difficul
ty Brother Boeeheer had with his
dish-cloth a few years ago an ac
count of which ho gave in his miscel
lany at Die time wo resolved not to
wash any dishes, but to put tho dirty
ones to soak and use the dean. As
long us dishes hold out wo shall get,
along with that part of housekeeping
all light, but they won’t last, always,
as the pile of dean ones is daily grow
ingsmaller, and tho dirty ones larger.
The crisis in Diis particular is ap
proadiing, and unless “the folks”
come home pretty soon, we shall have
to borrow some dishes. For Die first
few days we made tho bod up nicely
overy morning. For the next, week
we put it oil till night, and for tho
last few days wo didn’t make it up at
all. We were charged partienlauly to
water the house plants, and take care
of the bird. The plants have caused n
good deal of trouble, but we left the
door of tho cage open about the first
time wo curried that animal off, and
lie hasn’t troubled us much since. Of
course we’ll “catch it” when the folks
come home, but that is a good deal
easier than it is to catch the bird.
On the whole, we are free to say that
we do not like housekeeping, and if
ever 1 should bo “born again'' and
according to very good authority we
have, all to undergo that operation,
we nrnestly hope wo shall not lie born
a woman—and especially a house
keeping one— We would rather be an
angel. Elmore (laiette.

A decision in tho United States Su
preme Court closes a long litigation
concerning a patent on india-rubber
heads for lead pencils. Tho judg
ment of the Court is adverse to the
validity of tho patent. Some useful
notions as to what is and what is not
patentable may he gleaned from this
decision. A favorite form of claim
among patentees for years past, l lias
been that of “a now manufacture.”
The indeftnitenoss of suelt a claim
made its passage with the Office com
paratively easy, but it left open al
most the whole question as to the
points of novelty. In short, it gave
the inventor a patent that was very
little better than none. In the pres
ent case the “now manufacture” was
tho sold claim; there was nothing
specific as to form or combination.
Heiico though the idea was good and
the device was useful, tho patent was
worthless. Inventors would do well
to note instances of this form of claim,
and to be careful in entrusting their
interests to attorneys, who draw
many such patents.

The Pittsburg American Manufactur
er says that, a firm in that city has
begun “what promises to bo the first
successful venture in the manufacture

It says that the cost of making iron
sheets suitable for tinning has hith
erto been so great us to place it out
of the power of American manufac
turers to compote in prieo witli the
foreign. A million and a half hun
dred weight of tin plates were impor
ted in Ih7;i '7-1. valued at, nearly thir
teen million of dollars; so there is
room for this home manufacture.
The Pittsburg firm is said to have

MALARIA!
Read, Reflect and Act.
If one grain of Vaccine Virus, taken from the
cow's udder and kept ury for years, then mois
tened, aud the keenest point of a Lancet dipped
in it aud drawn geutly on the arm, ao a not to
draw tho blood, will so impregnate aud change
the entire system as to prevent the party so vac
cinated from taking the most loathsome of dis
eases (small pox) for an entire life; again, if the
Celebrated Eucalyptus tree will change au unin
habitable malarial district into a healthy, salu
brious clime, by simply absorbing from the at
mosphere the poison malaria, why will not the
proper remedy, properly applied, neutralize and
destroy the poison, known as malaria, and thus
enable parties to inhabit malarial districts with
impunity?
We claim that thero is such a remedy, and that
we have prepared it. and applied it, ami proved
it iu our Anti-malarial or Eueliymial Belt—aud
that persons who will wear this Belt may inhabit
the worst malarial districts without the fear of
having any diseases arising from malaria; such as
Chills and Fever, Billlous or Intermittent Fever,
Yellow Fever, Jaundice, Enlarged Liver and
Spleen, Indigestion, Constipation and Hem
orrhoids, and that it will cure all the above dis
eases, except the worst cases of Billlous aud Yel
low Fever.
This is called an Anti-malarial or Eucbymial
Belt, as it corrects tho humors of the oody and
produces a healthy action, invigorating tho sys
tem, and thus enabling it to per orm its various
duties without fearing the effects of malaria in
the least.
It has boon tried in thousands of oases without
a failure.
They can be obtained from the proprietors in
any quantity at the Powell Building, junction of
Broad and Peachtree streets, Atlanta, Ga.
Price for a single Belt $3, or $5 with a guaran
tee that it will cine or the money refunded.
N. B.—None genuine without the trade mark
is stamped upon them.

Messrs. Lovk A Willson: Gentlemen—ln April
lust I whs taken sick with regular Fever and
Aguo, having it every alternate day. After it had
run on me for two weeks, I was induced to try
one of your Anti-malarial belts; so I discarded all
medicine, and simply wore one of your Belts, as
directed, uud my Ague became lighter each suc
cessive time thereafter for Borne three or four
times, when it left me entirely, with a good appe
tite and clear skin; aud iu future, if I should ever
have a Chill or Ague,l would want one of your Pads,
ami no physic. Wishing everybody that may be
so unfortunate, as to have Chills aud Fever may
bo fortunate enough to get one of your Belts,
I am, respectfully, etc.,

Dns. Love & Willson:
Un the first day of December last I was taken
with Chills and Fever iu Thomasville, Southwes
tern Go., and was treated for the same by three
eminent physicians who were able to stop it only
for a few days ut a time. It made such inroads
on my constitution tbut my physician pronoun
ced me to be in tho first stages of consumption,
wh en I accidentally met up with Drs. Love A Will
sou's Auti-muiarial Belt, which lias entirely cured
me. I liavo hud but one chill since, and that was
the first day after putting it on. lam now in as
good health us I ever was in my lile, aud think
this Belt a Ged-send to the nfllicted.

Borne nine years ago 1 contracted malaria in
Suvanuah, Ga., from which I have suffered, at
times, ever sluce, until I met up with Drs. Love It
Willson’s Anti-malarial Beit some three months
ago. I have worn it continually, and have had no
chill since, aud find my general health, which
has been poor, much improved. I would recom
mend it to others suffering with malaria.

and other remedies, aud tbut they failed till they
put on the pad; since then they have had no more
Chills or Fever, aud they recommend them to ev
