cents a pound. Let us stick ciese 20
the truth. rThe.e are thousands of
cheese and butter factories running to-
day in the Northern States at which
farmers sell new rniIk at cent a pound.
What Is that pound for good dairy
hay and grass? No great price, you
NAV be sure, if you pay the farmer, his
wife. sons and daughters anything for
their labor in the care and management
of a dairy Of cows, each of which in
New York is known 70 eat four thoa-
sand rctnds of good hay in winter
The Grocer would make it cost Chau-
tauqua county farmer fifty dollars to-
winter COW, instead of twenty dollsrs.
The four rIiliioa tons hay annually
raised in New York are worth forty
million in place of one hundred mil
lion dollars,
Educated landholders would hardly
give SO much of their farms worth one
hundred dollars an acre to meadows
and pastures if grass did not pay them
better than grain or other crops. Rails
ing grass and stock facilitates the home
production Of manure and this soon
doubles the amount of hay cut from
an acre. 1t is this inside farm econ
omy that so many fail to zee, or, sec
ing, fail TO understand. As there are
some COWS that will yield three or four
times the average quantity of butter a
year, so there are some acres Of mead
ow and pasture that produce three or
four times more COW feed than others.
This concentration of agricultural
force excites ambition and commands
the best effoIts of mind and capital.
Many are testing the possibilities of
skillful husbandry and tillage, and in
no other departure of agriculture is
improvement more attainable than in
the annual growth of European grasses.
Our Southern average COW tells the
the story of our average care and wis
dom in grass culture.

CROPS THROUGIIOUT THE COUN-
TRY
New York Herald, July Is

New York Herald, July Is.
We have better news about the peach
crop IN Delaware. In Ohio and In
diana the wheat harvest will be better
than the average. THE good news from
the South continues. In Texas corn is
not doing well, but all other crops show
good promise. News from Wisconsin
and Illinois leads to the belief that the
grain crops viii be better than they
have been for ten years.
The rains of Tuesday and Wednesday
have had a marked effect upon the
Western crops that were suffering from
the drought. The copious fall of those
days extended over all the cOrn-grUwiug
districts of Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin
and Iowa, and thee Chicago TribUnereports
there is no longer a doubt about the
corn, oats and potatoes of the West
turning out well. The Tribune remarks
that the ram has had the effect of over
turning the spectators, who were buy
ing corn for future delivery upon the
assumption that the drouth would con-
tinue and the crop be light or a failure.
No orders have been received on that
account since the storm on Tuesday
night. Il may now be considered that
the corn has been saved and that the
early anticipatiOns Of a large crop will
berealized. When it is considered that
the rainfall was as much needed for
potatoes, oats and grass as it was for
corn, the commercial value OF the
change of weather and the difference
in profits to the farmers Of half a dozen
Northwestern States can be estimated
only by millions of dollars.

LESLIE. CUMBERLAND COUNTY, ny,
July 10, IST4.-As Nashville is deeply in
terested in the trade Of the Upper Cumber-
land, her citizens as well as the people of
this portion Of Kentucky will lament the
nearly utter failure of the tobacco crop.
Nine consecutive weeks have now elapsed
since the refreshing element so necessary to
vegetable growth has visited Us. II is safe
to say that the whole area Of land planted in
tobacco in this the adjoining counties
would not aggregate ten acres. All hopes
Of any part Of a tobacco crop have diSap-
peaTed, and farmers are now beginning 10
look Uneasily TO their crops Of corn, for the
time in which that grain makes the grand
bulge for yield will soon have passed.
May He that rules the storm see ft soon TO
send us gentle showers fruitful and refresh
ing, and release us from the grip of an awful
drOuth. 5. w. Y.
