~ THAN promenade Concert.

Next Friday week. the llth prox., the
grand promenade concert and ball Of
the Knights of Pythias will come off at
the Exposition Building. A number of
leading musicians frem other cities have
been engaged to aid and assist in rem
dering the music to be discoursed on
that brilliant occasion. Prot. Arnold
will lead the orchestra, and it may be
expected that no such musical feast
(since the Theodore Thomas concerts
has ever been promised to the
citizens of Memphis. In addition
to the musical attractions several
of our leading singing societies
will appear and give our people a
series of rare vocal treats. The concert
will be kept up until II o'clock at night
when the Knights of Pythias will an
nounce that the Terpsichorean festivities
will commence under the auspices of
proper committees. The entire affair
will be conducted with that care and pro-
priety which must of necessity meet
with the approval Of our best citizens.
The members of the illustrious and
chivalric order will take full charge Of all
the arrangements for both the ball and
promenade concert. The Knights wRl
permit no person to attend either who
can possibly be Objectionable, and this
fact will be duly appreciated by the elite
and music.loving people Of our city.
The programme of the street parade and
concert will be published in due time.

.Bz,p yT,y(; pBArp1E GRASS

Would it not he we'll for our farmers
to combine as they Go in Kansas, and
unanimously refrain from burning the
prairie this fall? There are several adj
vantages to he derived from leaving
the prairie unDurnt. The standing
grass catches the falling snow and re-
tains it in it's place, thereby diminish
ing drifting, and largely increasing the
chances for good sleighing. In view
OF a possible grasshopper visitation,
not 4 blade Of grass should he burnt
until about the middle of May, when
if the hopper makes his appearance,
he may be easily cremated Suppose
the grass between this and Mankato
had not been fired till the middle of
May last, who has any doubts but the
ravages Of the hopper would have been
much less than they are?
To carry out programme of not
burning every farmer must agree to it.,
and the way this thing has been man
aged in Kansas shows that it is possible

wheat has generally been failure in
that section.
An item is going the rounds Of the
press saying that Mr.. o. Dalrymple:
the leading wheat grower Of the State
has lost four hundred acres Of Odessa
wheat this season by rust. Mr.. D. in
troduced this species Of wheat into

THE PRESENT WHEAT CROP.

"A gentleman of WinOna has received
letter from the Hon. Pennock Pussy
of st. Paul, ex-Commissioner of Sta It's
tics, in relation to the wheat crop of
Minnesota for the year 1874, and the
judgment Of Mr.. Pussy is entitled to
great consideration in view Of his uni
form care III such matters. He says
that although he has not the requisite
data for close estimate, he ventures
to give 1,725, 900 acres as the wheat area
for 1874. From the reports and tho re-
suit Of inquiries from all parts Of the
State he is indisp0sed to place theayer-
age yield above fourteen bushels, which
gives a total of 81, 5000 bushels and
leaves a surplus for export of about
$4,000, 600 bushels of the present year S
crop.
The crop of 1873 was about %, 000,0 900
bushels and the surplus about 22,000,-
900 bushels.
The last number Of the Winona Re-
publican thinks that this estimate will
need to be changed, lis since threshins
has begun the average is shown to be
about fifteen or sixteen lushels, and
that the crop of 1871 will therefore
reach about 100000 :bushcl, neatly
as large as last years crop.
loore's Rurul, speaking Of the gen.
eral wheat crop, says that in many Sec
tons where the wheat crop has been 4
comparative failure for years, it is this
season superior in quality and quantity.
The crop of Western New York is a
notable instance in point, as it compares
favorably with the average Of old times
when forty bushels per acre was not
uncommon. From other wheat grow
ing regions reports are unusually favor
able. The California crop will be cnor'
mus, some accounts putting the sur
plus for expectation IT'S high us twelve
million bushels The California Sena-
tor, who some twenty years ago stated
that it's agricultural lands were next to
worthless, was mistaken, for to-day
tho real gold mines Of the State are it,
wheat fields.

REMEDY FUit THE G2ASSIIOP

The Industrial Press, recently con-
tanned an intelligent article on the grass
hopper saying that this pest origin
ates in dry and sandy deserts. For CEN
turtles they have been breeding in the
deserts of Africa and overrunning por-
tions Of Europe and Asia. So they
originate in our American deserts west
OF the Missouri. The writer Of this
article thinks that they will never pen
citrate far east Of the Missouri and
says that the remedy is to cultivate
their breeding grounds. The pillow
west Of the Missouri will he the most
effective remedy. Where they deposit
their eggs, the land should be plowcd
as deep rs possible III the fall, so as to
bury the eggs as deep as possible in the
earth.

ifIlhTi1CI:I-hS IN h1lASiS.
\ correspondent Of the st. Joseph
Guzctte writes from Cawker City, KAN
sas, a terrible story Of grasshopper raw
ages. Among the rest he says:
''In all the section I have passed
over, including Republic. Jewell, Wash
ington, Osborne and Mitchell counties
not one single bushcl of maturetl corn
will he gathered. 1t is all gonc-blades,
stalks and everything else; and l am
told by persons in from Smith, Phillips
and other western counties, that the
destruction there will be the same"
OF the settlers the writer says:
"Mny Il homcstea(lcr who came out
last fall and spring will be compelled to
leave, not having enough to live on this
winter. MI they have had in the world
was the little corn they were enabled
to get i'll the spring. Now that being
gone there is nothing left for them but
to pull up stakes and leave for some
place where they can winter. The roads
are already Mned with that class Of
people returning East.'
\ private letter written with the
graphic power Of an accustomed hand,
gives the picture very completely:
eve will not have u potato, squash,
pumpkin, citron melon or any thing Of
this kind for winter use. What we are
TO do this winter cannot see, for we
will have nothing to live on, and not Il
cent Of money to buy anything with,
even if there was anytl ling to buy
Nobody has anything left. The people
are almost crazy. Everybody will try
to leave, but there are some that can
not leave, for they have nothing to go
with.
So thick were the grasshoppers <that
all the clothing had to be shut up in
trunks: curtains were taken down and
protected from the raycnous appetite Of
the invaders. In addition to this there
has been no rain for months, and at the
date of the letter, July 80, the ther-
mometer stood at 10 degrees. Any ex-
perience OF prospect less calculated to
promote contentment, would lie hard
