that the convention has been signed

nothing but the strong nart Of the main
hull remained intact. On Saturday last,

THE CROPS.

Reports from the country are that har-
vest is pretty well over, and that crops
generally are below the average. The
hay crop is good, and corn viii be about
sixty per cent as compared with last year.
Oats look well but will be below last years
yield The grub worm has done some
damage to corn, and it with the continued
dry weather has greatly lessened the
chance for good yield. Labor has been
and still is scerce. In many instances
farmers being obliged toinvest in self bind
ing machines in order to harvest the crops.
While the crops in Rock Island county are
not as abundant as is usually the case,
STILL compared with neighboring counties
the harvest is good. Wheat is failure,
but this has been so for some years owing
to the devastation of the chintz bugs, so
that nobody is disappointed at the light
yield, as it was understood at the begin
Ming that the average of wheat would be
smaller than for years. Altogether the
crop prospects of Rock Island county are
fair and farmers are reasonably well sat-
istied with results

SAFE IN HARBoR.

!, The thirty thousand bushels of wheat
recently shipped down the Mississippi riv-
er in barges and towed by the steamer
steamer at New Orleans, has arrived in
splendid condition at Glasgow. The Vic
tory left st. Paul on June = arrived at
New Orleans the latter part of the month,
the entire trip being made in forty nine
days Chicago at the time of the ship
ment. said the grain would be in such a
condition before its arrival at New Orleans,
that it would be utterly valueless, but the
reverse has been proven, and the success OF
the Mississippi route established forever.
This vast shipment was made under the
mosst unfavorable circumstances, but the
grain has not been injured in the least,
demonstrating the practicability of the en-
terprise.
The st. Paul Pioneer Press says; Capt.
Reany agent of the line, offered 10 put
up $500 against $50 of any mans money
that the wheat would reach New Orleens
all right. This proved to be the truth, for
when it was examined there was no dam
age found, although the shipment had pass
ed through all kinds of climate, rainy, hot.
damp, steaming, dry, al intensified by the
peculiar atmospheric conditions, the wheat
on being transferred from the barges to the
ocean vessels, was forcible witness to the
lies that had been perpetrated by the inter
ests inimical to the river route, and now
the reports from Glasgow furnish addition
al proof as to its value"
