The Crops.


Although the wheat is not all cut yet,
enough has been cut to show that the crop is
the largest ever harvested in this county, and,
ton and good deal Of Information, 1t is the
largest ever raiEed in the State, There is as
much, OF nearly IS much, ground covered By
acre and Of better, quality Of grain, than
vas ,then. the largest ever known.
"fly," and come fears OF t'rust'' were felt for
some time before harvest, but We hear moth
ing OF either Bow that the harvest has eho IN
the real condition Of the crop. There may be
some portions Of the State in which the wheat
is light, or total failure, but We have not
heard OF them, if there are. Very good judges
have estimated the increase of thc Weld this
year over last at twenty per cent. One thing is
certain, there will be NO suffering for food at
the North this year. We have enough to feed
half of Europe, IS well as ourselves, and the
latest reports from France and England inGti.
cate that We may have it to do. The crop is
SO large that the lack Of hands to cut it is 8
serious embarrassment, and 1t is turning owe,
vast amount Of the labor to reaping ma:

The grass crop also is said By the country
papers to be very large. About that We have

crop will be short.

4 correspondent OF the New York Tribune.
having Travelled through the State Of Illinois,
thus reports on the state Of some Of the grow
ing crops:
CoTToS.-This plant is looking unusually
well the three or fosr weeks dry warm weather
having been most favorable. In the southern
conn1ieB the planting has not been so general
as it should have been, but whether the FARM
ers wished to plant more or less, they planted
all they could, since they used all their seed.
l do not know thst they would have planted
more if they Lad seed, but in more northern
COUNTIES the case was different, for many could
not get seed at all.
On the majority Of farms the eighth aud
quarter acre patches of cotton have been little
more thar doubled, but here and there are
pieces Of one two, sometimes five or more,
very rarely ten acres The amount which will
be raised will be Of little importance as regards
supplying the grrat want but rs SO many
have turned their attension to it, and will be
encouraged, the importance Of the move will
be very great. I observed that NJ. D. Dunlap,
Esq, Of Champaign county, in latitude forty
d. g1ees, has three-fourths of an acre, which is
looking well, and should add that the expert
ment is generally entered upon by Intelligent
farmers, not only in this State, but also IN In
diana, up to the above-named latitude The
report We shall have from them next fall will
be interesting, ana probably will settle the
question as to how much re can protirably
raise ut I3e1z cents per pound.
