temperature for the month, 74* 38'. There were 
twenty-two pleasant days and nine days or 
nights in which rain fell. There was not much 
rain until the night of the 28th, when wo had a 
very heavy shower, which lasted about three 
hours. A great deal of water fell, almost a 
freshet. Prevailing winds, went. Farmers are 
mostly done baying and harvesting. Oats are 
rather light- Hay, on upland, not more than 
half a crop; on creek meadows, a little below 
the average. First green com, 23d ult. First 
ripe tomatoes, 25th. Blackberries Hro very 
plenty and cheap, 5®8c. per quart, flutter, 28c,; 
eggs, 18c.; potatoes, $1©1.25; hay, $80 per ton.—Z. 
Dodge.’* Corner*. Waukesha Co., Wl»„ July 
24).—It has been uncommonly dry throughout 
this part of the State since March. The lust 
week wc have had frequent showers, and things 
are looking more cheerful. Wheat is Injured in 
some places by the chinch bug and others by a 
worm; between ohtnoh bog, worm, blight.and 
drouth, wc shall not havea hair crop of wheat or 
oats. The ftamsdoll Norway oat was sown in this 
vicinity very extensively, but we shall not much 
more than get the value of our soed back. Corn 
looks the most promising of all. Early potatoes 
are of fair size, but small yield; later ones are 
scarcely sot. Our first crop of clover was al¬ 
most an entire failure, and the prospects are 
that hay Will be very scaroo with those who 
have not marsh. Sheep are very cheap; good 
ones can be bought from $1 to $2. The wool 
crop of this vicinity whs sold yesterday at 40o. 
per pound, consisting of about sixty thousand 
pounds.—P akk-

metrloiil averages for July are: Highest point

72* 15'; amount of rain fallen, ax Inches; 9 days 
on which rain fell; 9 days of thunder and 9 days 
of lightning. Notwithstanding the large amount 
of rain fallen It has been a beautiful month for 
the farmer to gather his hay crop; probably not. 
more than two-thirds the quantity oompared 
with the Inst year, but of very much better 
quality. Formers arc principally through hay¬ 
ing and about half done harvesting. Corn and 
potatoes are looking finely.—s. b. 
Highland, Cuter Co., N. V., Aug. •*.—Corn 
looked well until about ten days ago, ainee 
which ft has suffered from the drouth; but to¬ 
day we had a nice rain. Oats aro a good crop. 
Bye about one-half a crop, the straw being 
good, but. poorly filled. Wheat, baa suffered 
from rust and the moth, which destroyed the 
grain while in the milk. Hay about ono-lmlf a 
crop, although better In this immediate vicin¬ 
ity than fartbor West. Strawberries and Ant- 
werps have yielded well. Antwerps better than 
in four or flvo years, but price* have been 
lower. Apples, pears and plums promise a fair 
crop. Currant* also boro well and brought 
good prices. Grapes promise a fair crop.—M. 
Dodge Co.. Wl*., Aug. 3.— Wheat nearly all 
out—not one-half stacked; quality good; yield 
estimated at fifteen bushels. Weather flue. 
Prospect of scouring oropsin fine order. Barley 
out early; some stained by rains. Com good. 
Field corn most too largo to boll. Apples ono- 
fonrth to onc-third crop. Wild plums plenty;

county.—b. l. r. 
Olive Branch, Dr Soto Co., 511**., July 15,— 
Weather la very dry. If we oonld get a good 
rain now, we would make a splendid crop of 
corn. Cotton 1s vory small, and not growing; 
the Hoe and cold weather last spring destroyed 
the stand. July 28th. Wo were favored with a 
fine rain last night, but the corn’s doom was 
sealed, did not do it much good, hut. was Just the 
thing for cotton, though it Is still small, out Is 
growing very fast; patches are white with 
blooms. Corn, $1.25; oats, 60c.; butter, 50c.; 
eggs, 26c.—J. w. F. 
Manchester, Coffee Cn., Twin., Aug. 1.—We 
had a cold, backward spring. Very lew peaches; 
apples and other fruit* abundant ; wheat crop 
good; corn orop fine; garden vegetables are all 
one could desire. We have had plenty of water 
and mush melon* for the last, two wooks; second 
crop cucumbers how; the warmest days 90* to 
91*; rarely get* to UK)*; my Early Bose and 
Snowball potatoes wero In cooking order the

$15 per acre.—f • o m. 
Gunsnle*, Texas, July 35.—Corn crop very 
large; nearly ripe enough to gather. Cotton 
picking will begin In about two weeks. There 
will bo a very large crop made if worms do not 
attack it. Castor beans and sorghum are nearly 
ready to harvest- Both crops are tine. Irish 
potatoes did well—all dug and housed. Late 
frost killed every peaoh In the county. Plenty 
of grapes and figs. Cattle all fat on the prairies.

Atne*bury, Mass., Ang. 5.—Weather, until 
1st of July, unusually warm, and wet enough. 
Since, it has been extremely hot, and very dry, 
until last evening, when we had a heavy shower. 
A full crop of hay has been cut. Corn, pota¬ 
toes, &o., arc damaged considerably on high 
ground by the drouth. The prospect for fruit 
is good, though the Canker worraB have done 
much damage In many orchards.— e. d. k. 
High Point, Mo., Aug. l,—People complain of 
hard times here. This has been a very dry sea¬ 
son so far. All small grain and hay Is leas than 
halt a crop. Corn, early planted, looks well; 
late planted, will make nothing. The grass on 
the prairies is withering and water becoming 
scarce. Wheat Is worth from 80c. to $l; oats, 
30c.; corn 75c. H. M. 0. 
Van Harm, Jackson Co., lows, July 31.— We 
have had but one day's rain since May 15. Crops,
