Effects OF the Recent Dry Speh
i'm Kentucky.
LoUIsviLLE, June l4-The State Com
missioners Of Agricultural in the Monthly
Builetn just issued, say: We have de-
layed issuing our monthly report in the
hope that something would occur to put
a brighter look on the crop prospects
At the time Of issuing our last report
the responses OF correspondents from
all over the State were, in high degree,
cheerful as touching the, small grain
crops. . Six weeks ago everything was
being pressed forward by the unusually
seasonable weather and the hopes oil
farmers kept pace with the growth
of the crops. "a dry June
for good crop" is a saying We have
heard all our life. Certainly small grain
crops could not be subjected to severer
ordeal than q dry May. On the 9th oil
May dry spell commenced and lasted
MP TO the lst OF June. The damage done
by the continued dry spell was OF too
fixed character to be recovered by the
rains OF course, wheat received some
benefit from the recent rains. THIS
much is certain, that it will fall lar be-
low what all had good reason to
hope for a month ago, and can GER
tainly not turn out more than a
two. third crop. Corn Pt rhaps within
the memory OF the Oldest inhabitanI
there was never 80 much difficulty in
getting a good stand OF corn. This was
the case throughout the State, and many
had to plant as often as three times.
With detective seeds and a dry May
farmers have been thrown so late in the
season in getting a stand that the crop
car not be otherwise than late in ma
turing. From lessons taught this year
and two years ago by detective
seed corn. IL there is way TO
save seed so as to be reliable
il would be inexcusably culpab' e
hereafter not to do so. Hemp-Uutil
the recent heavy rains the hemp crop
was as unpromising as it we'll could be.
They were, however, in time to save 1t,
and the indications now are that there
will be fair crop raised. Tobacco -
The plants are abundant everywhere.
All the ground that was in readiness
was set during the recent season. Much
ground intended for tobacco could not
be put in order on account OF the dry
and baked condition OF the ground. by
the next plant sowing season all will be
in readiness, and much larger crop has
been set than ever in this State before.

Wounded Like the President.

"The literature OF the Presidents case
would make q library" said DIR. Bliss. a he
tossed the ashes from his half-smoked cigar.
az have just received n letter from the
daughter OF the late Lieutenant Derby, OF
the United States Engineer Corps, or, NJ
you may have known him, the celebrated
John Phoenix. Lieutenant Derby was
wounded ut the battle of Monterey, during
the Mexican War, and his wound was APP
parently as vital as that of the President.
The surgeons gave him up after probing for
the ball. He was carried on stretcher for
two hundred miles, put on board a vessel
and brought to this country and recovered.
In after years the ball worked itself TO the
surface of his body, and, on discovering Il,
he pinched ii SO rs to bring Il closer 10 the
skin, and one day asked his wife 90 make an
incision and let IL out. 'Why don't you 20
TO q surgeon and let him perform the opera
ton? Haven't the nerve to do t., replied
his wife. Look here,' said the ininiltable
John, the surgeons have had all the fun
with that ball that I propose to allow. II IL
to bs q family matter hereafter. II you
don't cut 1t out / will.' II was never re-
moved, however, and he died with the bull
let in him. This may be the case Of the
President. The wound may heal complete
ly and the presence Of the ball In his body
give him no trouble, but some day Il will, in
all probability, come 10 the surface and
plead TO be let out."-E T. Herald.
