A large amount OF broom corn ard fla1
is being grown in 1To4uois County this sea-
sOn.
The Cairo Bulletin says: "Dlus GRASS, in
zenR, has had a very rapid growth. The sec.
ond crop is already well advanced. The fer
ulity Of our soii develops wonders in vegetable
life. A lady, on Tenth street, is ouItiyating
.;spaniah Dagger, that grow five inches by
inches . day, for tno OF three days in sue
ccssion. Will these facts before US, NC arc
disposed to think that It was in Cairo thst

Tho Grundy County Atlas says: "An in
mcneo average Of corn has been planted this
year. In Grundy County the proportion Of
corn and oats to wheat il much greater than
ever before. Corn, 20 far "a We have noticed,
and we hare travelled extensively through the
country, is in the best possible condition. The
spring has been = little too dry for nhekt
Where it las tcon sown On now breaking and
not extra nell covered, il looks thin. Oh tho
whole, the yield per acre promises to ba less
than an average. Fred De Seclnorst, in West
crn GFundv, has put in f1fty-fYe acres Of Gax
seed this season. and Vim. Heron has nut in
twenty acres. This is tue first flax sown in
Grundy."

THO carly aonu wheat eeems to stand the

entire section, to which the drouth extends,
the farmers do not expect, in tho aggregate,
more than one-fourth Of usual yield"
MDIASA.
The Upton Times says: Tho drouth pre-
walls in this section, and unless there is min
in abort time there will be no corn raised. In
neighboring counties we hear Of rust and pre-
