maddened animal continued tossing the 
unfortunate man for several minutes. 
Naughton is sixty years old, and according 
to Tuesday’s report, was so horribly 
mangled that he could not recover. 
On the steamer, Lydian Monarch which ar¬ 
rived here yesterday morning were 159 Per- 
cheron horses of which 140 were brood mares. 
They were shipped at Havre, France, and are 
in excellent condition, and are consigned to 
W. L. Elwood of DeKalb, 111.There 
is to be an Inter-State Farmers’ Fair, 
at Raleigh, N. C., on August 21, which Sena¬ 
tor John H. Reagan, of Texas, author 
of the much-desecrated “ Inter-State Com¬ 
mercial Bill,” is expected to attend, and tell 
what he knows about innter-State trans¬ 
portation as it affects agriculture. 
Prof. S. W. Johnson is re-writing his well- 
known book, “ How Crops Grow.”. 
Prof. H. E. Stockbridge has been offered the 
Directorship of the Indiana Agricultural 
Station, at Purdue University, and is about to 
return from the Japan Agricultural College to 
accept the situation.There’s talk of 
sending Dr. T. H. Hoskins, of Orleans County, 
Vermont, to the State Senate. A better selec- 
tivn could hardly be made.The grape- 
growers of San Diego county, California, 
have petitioned the Legislature to protect them 
from the ravages of the honey bee. 
A. A. Bingham, Master of the Mass. State 
Grange, is mentioned as a candidate for Con¬ 
gress. There ought to be more farmers to 
leaven that body.. One-third of the students

Madda, for five years, superintendent of the 
Harvard Botanic Garden, has resigned his 
position and will start soon in business in 
this city... Winthrop W. Stone, a graduate 
of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, 
who has been studying chemistry for some 
time in Gottengin, Germany, is on his way to 
this country, having obtained his degree of 
Ph. D., to take the position of Chemist in 
the Tennessee experiment station. 
Gen. Marsena R. Patrick, Governor of the 
Soldiers’ Home at Dayton, O., died July 27th, 
aged 77 years. He was a graduate of West 
Point; served in the Seminole war, in the 
war with Mexico, and the civil war, and in 
1SS0 was appointed Governor of the Soldiers’ 
Home. He was a prominent member of the 
New York State Agricultural Society for 
many years and general superintendent at 
the State fairs. The severest outbreak 
of glanders that has ever occurred in Ohio is 
now afflicting Cleveland. Since last October 
one street car company has lost 50 horses by 
the plague, and 52 diseased animals were 
found in its stables the other day. The com¬ 
pany owns 410 horses. The dead were valued 
at $7,500 and the sick are held at $8,000. 
... Postmaster General Dickinson has issued 
a circular letter instructing postmasters that 
under the provisions of the Postoffice appro¬ 
priation bill, recently passed by Congress, the 
postage on seeds, cuttings, bulbs, roots, cions, 
and plants will be charged at the rate of one 
cent tor each two ounces or fraction thereof. 
The former rate was one cent per ounce. 
-'ike loss in transporting cattle across 
the ocean was, in 1880, 37 per cent. It has 
been reduced to 11 per cent. 
the largest cattle sale ever made in Ken¬ 
tucky, by one man, was made July 31, by Mr, 
C. Alexander, cashier of the Northern Bank, 
at Paris. He sold from his 22,000-acre farm, 
on the Bourbon and Fayette county line, 550 
fat cattle to M. Kahn, of Cincinnati, for M. 
Goldsmith, ot New York. They are to be 
shipped to London, England.Hence¬ 
forth, the United States Dairyman will be 
consolidated with the Dairy World, both 
bearing the latter name. All unexpired sub¬ 
scriptions will be completed by furnishing the 
consolidated paper.In the last fort¬ 
night in July, 117,000 Texas cattle 
were shipped into Montana, most of 
which will be put on the ranches of the 
eastern part of the Territory. _ 
Special dispatches from Grand Forks, Aber¬ 
deen and Sioux Falls, Dakota, say that the 
heavy rains and extremely hot weather of the 
past week have seriously damaged wheat. At 
Sioux Falls on Sunday the temperature was 
100 in the shade.It is estimated that 
the probable requirements of importing coun¬ 
tries next season will be 320,000,000 bushels of 
wheat, against a surplus of 256,000,000 bushels 
in exporting countries....Reports from the 
gram fields say that winter wheat is thrashing 
out better than was expected. The yield of oats, 
it is thought, will be the largest ever known.' 
According to Thursday’s Cincinnati Price 
Current the previous week’s hog packing in 
the West was 100,000, against 110,000 the 
preceding week, and 150,000 last year, but 
more live hogs were shipped east than then. 
The total packing from March 1 was 3,450,000 
hogs, against 3,000,000 a year ago—decrease 
150,000. Prices of hogs had been further ad¬ 
vanced during the week, gaining 15 to 25 cents 
per 100 pounds in most markets, and 35 to 
40 cents at Cincinnati. There had been 
considerable activity in the provision trade, 
and Chicago prices had steadily tended up¬ 
ward, with a gain of 32^ cents per hundred 
pounds for lard and short rib sides for Sep¬ 
tember delivery and a still greater advance in 
pork, which closed Wednesday afternoon $1.00 
per barrel higher than a week before. 
The Mark Lane Express in its review of the 
British grain trade during last week, says: 
During tne past week there have been con- 
tinuous rains and cold weather, not, however, 
affecting the crops, the bulk of which stand 
well. (Jn the best wheat lands the crop is 
heavy, 'ike trade in English wheat is im¬ 
proving. Hellers asked Is or 2s advance. In 
the provinces Is advance was obtained readily. 
The sales of English wheat during the past 
week were 23,209 quarters at 32s 6d per 
quarter, against 24,590 at 35s 3d during the 
corresponding period last year. Country flour 
was Is dearer. 
Foreign wheat was firm and against buyers; 
Australian and other whites rose 3d in Lon¬ 
don, and in Liverpool Id per cental. Flour 
dearer. Round maize was against buyers; 
. ..The acreage under hops in the United 
Kingdom for 1887 was 63,706 acres, against 
70,127 acres in 1886. The acreage of 1888 is 
placed at 60,000, which is the smallest area 
since 1871, in which year it was 60 030 acres. 
The prospects for the crop of 1888 are not 
particularly bright. In some grounds the 
poles have not been set up, the promise is so 
poor. Much damage has been done in some 
fields by the hop flea beetle, and still more, 
by cold and wet weather. 
The average wheat crop of Italy for the past 
ten years has been 132,000,000 ’ bushels, and 
Italy as a wheat-producing country, ranks as 
third in Europe, being excelled only by 
France and Russia ; so that it will be seen 
that the outturn of her harvest has somewhat 
to do with the requirements of Europe. The 
crop of last year was about 120,000,000 bushels, 
or 12,000,000 bushels below an average of the 
past ten years. The consumptive require¬ 
ments of Italy che coming cereal year, will be 
140,000 bushels, or 20,000 bushels above her 
production. The bulk of this will in all 
probability, be supplied by Russia and India. 
The French crops have been disastrously 
affected by the weather. According to the 
returns the yield of wheat will probably be 
35,000,000 hectolitres short. As a hectolitre 
is equal to 2.751 busnels, this will be equal to 
a shortage of over 95,000,000 bushels. 
The Han Francisco Daily News states that 
the new cereal year opens propitiously for the 
ship owner, and grain freights to Europe are 
at present 7s. Od. per ton higher than at the 
close of June, while the disengaged list of 
ships in port is reduced to but eight vessels 
suitable for wheat-loading. The wheat crop, 
though not large, is of tine quality, and will 
probably equal in quantity, if not exceed, 
that of last year. This, with a good Oregon 
crop, and a heavy surplus stock of 6,750,000 
bushels from last year, will supply car¬ 
goes for a large fleet, if the foreign 
markets warrant its shipment. The Htate 
is said to have the largest grape crop 
ever grown in the United Htates. The 
make of wine and brandy and raisins, will 
be very large, and enormous shipments of 
fruit will be made to the Htates east of the 
Rcckies. Heavy shipments of fruits from 
Southern California have already begun.
