reports From Our Correspondents.
CHESTER.
Our correspondent J. F. D., writing from
Chester on the 2Sth, says:


Our correspondent J. F. D., writing from
Chester on the 2Sth, says:
l. The area In cotton in this county Is about
the same as In 1871.
2. The stand Is not as good as In 1871, and
the prospect of yield Is not as good as
at the same time last year.
3. More wheat and oats have been planted
than last year. Wheat Is doing well. Oats
are very inferior. Corn ts about the same as
last year.
4. We do not expect to make enough grain
to supply our section until next crop.
s. The quantity of commercial fertilizers
need this year is probably about forty per
cent more than the consumption flast year.
6. The cost of the cotton crop tAis year will
be slightly diminished by the low prices OF
staple provisions, such as bacon and melasses.
ANDERSON.
Our correspondent, s., writing from Pendle-
ton on the 2sth, Gays:
1.-The area in cotton planted in Pendleton
township and vicinity is from twenty 10 twen-
ly-fvs per cent. greater than last year.
2. We hear much complaint Of bad stands,
owing to the drought and baked condition OF
the land. Some have ploughed up and re-
planted. With good rains 1t Ia believed we
shall yet have fair stands, but late. The pros
pect for yield equal TO last year is not latter
5. The area of grain crops is as much less
as the cotton crop is greater than last year.
The ost crop, except the fall sowing, will be
entirely cut of on all nplands unless we nave
rain in few days. The heads of wheat are
short, but what grain is made will be gooa,
unless the lite heavy winds have blown on the
blooms, In which case we shall have only par.
TALLY filled heads. Very little rust yet, out l
much fear blight OF mlldew.
4. We do not expect 10 make enough grain
to supply our section until the next crop:
Less corn Is planted and by no means full
crop OF wheat, even should the rust not
attack it. The wheat has been much Killed
out In the winter.
S. About double the quantity of CONNER
clal fertilizers has been sold here that was sold
last year.
6. The cost of the cotton crop will, no doubt,
be increased from the causes above stated,
especially from the want OF labor, and the
unusual amount laid outlor fertilizers. Pro-
visions have been nosmeher than last year;
bacon not as high.

COTTON IN GEORGIA.
What the Newspapers Say Of the Crop

We learn from reliable farmer of Upson
County that owing 10 the protracted drought
the stand of cotton In that county Is very poor
There is great complaint among the farmers
abont a stand of cotton. They say their crops
nil, not average more than half stand.
We hope the ground is wet enough to bring
nm the cotton and start that which mas peen
worked over There Is still much complaint
about bad stands; but all say that the cotton
plant, where 1t is up and mas oeen worker, Is
very strong and healthy.-Mddtson appeal.
Cotton is growing of well, though the aver
aue stand throughout the country is not good
The dry weather during the latter part OF april
and the first half of the present month prp-
vented much cotton from coming up.-WoSh-
inq:on Gazette.
There is much complaint among the farmers
about the bad stand of cotton. 1t has not
come M. owing either to bad seed or to the
dry weather. If the rains do not cause tne
seed to come up there must necessarily De q

Cotton that is up Is doing very well, but

A MEMORABLE SCENE.
GEO. ALFRED TOWNSEND DESCRIBES
THE BAILING OF MR.. DAVIS.
Horace Greeley's Greatness.

Though seven years have passed away, the
best description of the scene OF the balling OF
Jefferson Davis by Mr.. Greeley has just been
given by George Alfred Townsend to the Chi
cago Tribune. He represents the Cincinnati
nominee as at that time really cutting the
Gcrdian not when the country was delibera-
ting whether to commit an act which would
be repented ever afterward, by hanging Davis
or keep him prisoner as Queen Elizabeth
did Mary Stuart. "Horace Greeley took The
public mind off Davis and became In turn the
best abused man in America. He played
mercy and magnanlmity, and closed up the
war without shedding life to stain the victo.
~ of freedom" We quote from MIR. Town

Pruning i'm June.

Correspondence of the n: Y. SUM-
In your issue of February 18th, L no.
ticed two correspondents, asking for infOr-
nation as to the best time for pruning
fruit trees, and D. w. n, of Cedar Hill,
n. j., asserting that spring was the best
time, as he had always practiced it at that
time, and his trees had done well. | have
been engaged i'll cultivating fruit trees for
the past twenty years, and have pruned
apple and pear trees i'll every month OF the
year. If | could always have the time to
spare, | would prefer to prune in the
month Of June, for the following reasons:
First, the wound made by the removal OF
branch at this season will heal sooner
than one made at any other time OF the
year. Second, very few water sprouts will
grow after pruning, and the fruit which
remains will be much larger in conse-
quence. Any person who is at all ac-
quainted with the management of fruit
trees, knows that if tree is barked in
June the wound will heal in very short
time To prune in June, persons should
barking the branches. My reasons fol
not pruning i'll the spring are, we general
Iy have high winds and cOpiOus showers
the winds dry and crack the new wound
and the rain enters and blackens it, which
it does not do in June. Water sprouts
will also grow, which will have to bt
trimmed off every season. You suggest
covering the wound with paint or wax
but every farmer does not always have
these materials at hand, and in June ht
does not need them. 5. DEVENE.

TAKING OFF THE HIDES OF ANNALS
A leather worker gives the following d.
rections in the Canada Farmer: 1--WE will
suppose the animal dead and placed on It's
back the operator, by thrusting his knife
point foremost and edge up, makes a slit
the entire length of the carcass, from the
chin, over the center of the breast in the
line of the navel to the vent. Let him now
stand by it's side, with his face looking the
way the head lies, and taking the fore foot
in his left hand, run the point of his knife
in the line of the cleft of the foot and cap
of the knee, up the front of the leg and
into the central slit Ofits bosom. For the
hind leg, having reversed his position, let
the slit be made in the line of the heel,
over the center of the cap of the hook down
the back of the ham into the central slit.
In this way the hide when spread out will
have square form without long prOjec-
tons, and consequent deep intentions OF

CHICKEN JELLY.-FOr chicken jelly,
take large chicken, cut it up into small
pieces bruise the bones and put the whole
into a stone jar, with a cover that will
make it water tight. Set the jar in a large
kettle of boiling water, and keep it boiling
for three hours. Then strain off the liquid
and season it slightly with salt, pepper and
mace or with loaf sugar and lemon juice,
according to the taste of the person for
whom it is intended. Return the frag-
ments of the chicken to the jar, and set it
again in a kettle of boiling water. You
will find that you can collect nearly as
much jelly by the second boiling. This
jelly may be made Of an old fowl,
