An Important Notice 10 Agricultcnfsts-
General F. A. Walker, Superintendent of tho
Census, has issued a circular In relation TO pro
| auctions Of agriculture, intended 70 secure
greater accuracy than In the last three census
| in the agricultural schedule. By tho act OF
| March Bird, the returns are required to DO msde
of the chief productions Of agriculture dur
| ing the year ended June 1st." There is no
distinct agricultural year which ends juno lst,
| and thcre Is reason to believe that the statis-
| tics of agriculture from 1850 to 1870 in re-
gard to many principal products embraced
| portions of two different crops as the enumer'
alton was protracted through several months.
| The liability to error is decreased by
the Limitation by law Of the time for the
present census to the month oil
June There are certain production,
as dairy products, meat, &C., when the product
is gathered day, by day which should be given
for the year from juno 1, 1873, to May 81 1879.
lu view Of The requirements Of the law and
| OF the great Importance Of accurate statistical
information relative TO agriculture, tits deemed
to be highly desirable that farmers should pre-
pare themselves in advance to give the ill.,
| formation with promptuess and accuracy. II
is urgently recommended, therefore, that ag'
ricultural journals and the officers ofagricultu'
raj societies and clubs give publicity to this an
nouncemcnt, aud that all persons engaged in
agriculture who shall receive this circular, OF
shall see it in the public prints. make notes
| from time to time of the quantities aud values
of their several crops gathered, aud tho num-
Der of ucres Of laud planted, IN order that
their statements, when made to the enumera'
tors, may be Of the highest possible value.
To remove any doubts that may arise con-
corning the crops to be returned IN the census,
the following table presents the several crops
| specifically mentioned in the agricultural
schedule, arranged accordingly as they fall
iuto the calendar year 1879 or that of 1850, oil
| are TO bo returned for the twelve months
beginning June l, 1879, and closing May 81
| 1880
| 0Cthe crop of the calendar gear Of 1879: Wheat
corn, rye, oats barley, buckwheat rice, to-
| bacco, cotton, potatoes, peas and beans, orch
ards, vineyards, small fruits, hay, clover seed
grass seed, hops, hemp, fax, haxseed, sugar

1t is believed that by calling attention o.
those interested to the subject the efforts o
the bureau will be greatly facilitated, and i
is to be hoped the press will give general cir

water supply Hocommended.
The report Of Lieutenant II. L. Hoxie. which
was submitted yesterday. states that tho total
deficit of the United States on account Of tho
work Of improvement siDcs 1871 Is epproxi.
mately 81, 04o, 15204. Il refers TO the fact that
the era Of tho specisi Improvement tax and
all matters growing out Of It, will pass away
with the completion of the revision Of the
special assessments, the collection of tho dc.
linquent tax and the resumption Of the tax
lien certificates with the eight per cent. i'm.
provement bonds. Sewers should only be laid
by the District government aud pipe sewers
should be put down moro substantially
than poperty-holders arc required to lay
them. Tho sewerage of the B'stroet
drainage area Is in satisfactory progress
and the appropriation will soon be exhausted.
There is every indication of vigorous prose-
cution of tho work on the Boundary sewer.
During the next fiscal year the New York
avenue sewer and the improvements in prog
ress at the canal outlet, on the river front,
should be completed.
considerable portion OF the report is given
to the discussion of the water supply. IL states
that q large conduit and large mains are
needed for the supply Of Washington in
order to preserve proper elevation OF the
water. He advocates liberal expenditure at
the present time in extending the
conduit and erecting new distributing
reservoir, saying that If the United States
Government will not assume the cost 1t can be
paid III accordance with the principle estab'
lished of dividing the expenses of the Dis
trict government And he claims that there
Is no sufficient reason why tho United
States should not pay the water rates
the same as other water takers. He
presents tho plans aud estimates for III
additional supply of water, which arc the same
rs presented last February, except an increase
of the estimates for the four-foot main, on &C
count ofthe rise in the price OF iron. He asks
that Congress be requested to appropriate moi

The apparently unusual solicitude of the

curiosity as to the motive. The warrant for

cause him any inconvenience the service OF

Next Season.
The National club returned home last oven
ing-that il, those members of il that will prob
ably remain here during the winter. Some Of
the boys give very amusing account of the
trip and their opinion of Albany aud some of
its citizens which only carries out the impress
sons that have previously been entertained of
certain individuals in that city. They would
have been home day sooner, but remained in
New York to witness the game between the
Providence and English cricketers. They
blame themselves Tor losing the first game in
Albany, and say that 1t was lost in the seventh
inning by inexcusable errors. The season is
now over, aud the subject of conversation
among them is the mines of mex. year, and
where men will play. Another matter oil some
! interest is that of association. The PROPOSE
| ton is being strongly agitated to organize an
| International League, to embrace Worcester,
| Springfield, Boston, Providence, Albany, Troy,
| Jersey City, Philadelphia Baltimore aud Wash
iugton. This organization to charge an adj
mission fee oil twenty-five cents TO its games.
Troy has already taken the iuitiatory by
declaring that at all games in which they par

| exceed twenty-five cents. Worcester indorses
| this and ID is stated on good authority, that
| both Boston and Providence will cut loose from

That the remainder Of the clubs will come
| into the arran cement no doubt is entertained.
| The League will then have for membership
| Buffalo, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Detroit
Chicago, and perhaps Milwaukee. This will
! give strong Western combination. aud they
will have sufficient clubs in it to give then
plenty Of work. Such an association in the
East will prove financial success to every
club belonging thereto, the interest in base

become more popular than ever. Long ant

avoided, thereby making great saving t.
