KEyosuA, July I0.--A ride in the country the
past week revealed the gratifying fact that all

have suffered to some extent from the ravages
OF the cbinch-bues, but in The Immediate vicinity
OF the city the crops have been uImolessed. In
localities where last year only half = crop OF
wheat was raised, this season full crop PROM
ises TO reward The farmers labor. The recent
rains have given the corn q new start, and 'tbs
prospects ere fair for good yield. Barley, OATS
