Official Crop Reports from Ninety-Tive
Counties of Illinois.

SPRINGFIELD, ILL.,, July 2l.-The crop
reports for the month of July, made to the
secretary of the state board of agriculture,
have been tabulated, and will be issued to-
day. About 250 reports have been re-
ceiyed from Dinety-fve COMMITTEES in the
state. They show that the corngrowing
counties, is fully up to the average and in
a number of cases from 5 to 25 per cent
above the average OF Winter wheat
there will be probably 20 per cent. less
than an average. Spring wheat is not so
good. Rye, barley. fax, cotton, tobacco,
castor beans, Irish potatoes and sweet
potatoes are generally full crops. In some
localities apples promise a fair crop,
while the peach crop will be
quite small Of pears, there will be a
moderately good yield. The yield of
grapes promises to be unusually large.

The State Agricultural College.

The University of Vermont and
State Agricultural College, under
the care of President Buckham, 50
widely known and highly esteemed
througout the State, affords facilities
for anagricultural ana scientific
education, which the farmers of Yer
mont should allow their sons to take
advantage of. The young men Of
Vermont in that institution can be
trained to scientific acquaintance
with agriculture, educated as civil
and mechanical engineers, chemists,
in short, furnished with thorough
education in those branches cover
ed by the name ''agriculture and
mechanic arts" The doors of the
institution are wisely open also to
the daughters of V ermont, who can
select from the branches taught
those most helpful to their sphere.
The range of studies. including mod.
ern languages, English literature,
men tai and moral science, is such
that both sexes can easily select
what will furnish staff to help them
along in life. Let the farmers of
Vermont send class to the agricul-,
tural college and test it's advantages
before they condemn and criticisc

and intent of the professors of the

To The Public,

A few people, readers of the Ar
gus and OPINION, have noticed a
"passage at arms" between their
correspondents; of the former pa
per, Mr.. G. B. Durgan of Bradford,
of the latter, the undersigned, IA
resident of Newbury. This contro-
versy was brought about ON our
part, by the appearance of several
articles in the "Bradford Box" of
the Argus, which were far from be-.
ing true statements. If the editor
of the OPINION will grant me space,
will explain, and close the contrO-
versy for the present. Mr.. Greg
DRY B. Durgan, we never once
doubted your honest intentions of
telling the truth: up to the time we
requested you to get the facts lin
the Jan. Doth No. of the OPINIoN),
and simply charged you of being
ignorant, in regard to certain occur
renee of which you had no positive
knowledge whatever. In this we
could, and as yet, have seen no i'm
propriety, knowing it would be for
your own best interests, and the adj.
vancement of the cause. to which
you give your time and attention.
In your reply, (see Argus Feb. 3d),
you "speak of my jumping straddle
the fence and kicking both ways,"I
and some similar expressions, which
the public can read at their leisure.
Seeing that you wished to pick the
matter up, and make it a public dis,
cussiOn, in accordance with this
state of affairs, 1 made a reply in
the OPINION bearing date of Feb.
II. To this you replied in the last
weeks Argus. To this reply l wish
to call special attention. Whether
the editor of the Argus came to your
OF whether that is your
style of writing, makes
10 material difference. You doubt
ess intended it should go to the
world as an assistance from the ed
tor, as such we shall deal with some
,arts of it. Your article begins,
