The CRoPs IN KENTUcKY.-In the absence of
strictly local news, we publish the following
correspondence, clipped from the Maysville
Eagle, relative to the crops in the interior of
the State:
"A correspondent from sherburn KY,
writes us as follows;
!"'June 8, 1860.
"EDIToR EAaLE-Dear Sir; In examining
the prospect of our wheat crop, in eight
counties through which have lately passed,
| think did not see more than ten fields
that would yield more than half crop.
"And | have talked with Bath County
farmers, some time ago, and they thought
they would make half u crop. On yesterday
| had a conversation with an intelligent gen
tleman from that county, aud he says he now
thinks the crop will be total failure, as the
rust is now striking the wheat. | find this
the case in Fleming County, from my own
observation and conversation with other
farmers of the county. In talking with some
gentlemen, they thought that Fleming
County would not make more than four
DuSutlo OI WutdL per acre. SOTQ OatS
look well at this time."
Another gentleman living near Tilton, who
is one of the best and most intelligent farm
ers of Fleming writes as follows
"TILToS, KY, June a, 1880.
"EDIToR EAGLE-Dear Sir. From my OBJ
servation of the wheat crop in this vicinity
and surrounding country, do not think
there can, with even good season from this
until harvest be more than an average yield
of five bushels per acre, and should there be
much rain this month, the wheat being quite
thin on the ground, therefore more liable to
rust, in which case would reduce the guam
tity below the present prospect, and the
quality would be inferior, barley crops very
light, corn, oats and grass, very fine, for the
season of the year."
