The Crops.

McKillop 4 sprague, New York, have
received advices from Eve States concern
ing the harvests. In Arkansas, the wheat
has been generally harvested, the yield
being below the average, and the quality
superior. The increased area moro than
covers the deficiency. The condition Of
corn and cotton is good. In Kansas the
wheat harvest is well advanced, and
there Is promise Of crop greatly
above the average in quality and guam
tity. Corn everywhere is in good condi-
toin and promising full crop. The
agricultural interests Of the State were
never in more prosperous condition at
this season Of the year. Reports FROM
Texas declare wheat, corn, cotton and oats
to be in good condition, with nearly a
full crop Of oats. The Nebraska farm.
ers are In good spirits because neither
grasshoppers nor any other insects have
appeared to interfere with tho progress OF
their crops. The reports Of the ;condi;
tion Of all cereals are generally favora-
bic, presenting even better prospects than
ever before at this season, and the farm.
ers have an idea that, unless some deri-
ous drawbacks should intervene, the next
few months will see them compensat ed
for all the losses incurred by the raven:
Gus grasshopper. Corn is good in Florids,
and cotton is looking well, though it is
too early to venture an opinion as TO the
quality or quantity OF the entire crop.
This year many Of the people Of this
State are turning their attention TO. the
cultivation Of tho orange, for which the
climate'fs we'll adapted. s.
