Michigan Crop Report for Month of
October.


Michigan Crop Report for Month Of
October.
From the ONCE of the Secretary of State, at
Lansing.
For this report returns have been re-
ceived from LOOP correspondents. repre-
senting GA townships. Six hundred and
twenty-nine returns are from 1856 town
ships in the southern four tiers of
counties. The returns were made be-
tween October and IA.
The estimates show that the acreage
sOwn to wheat this fall is but little if
any greater than 1880; that the number
of acres of potatoes raised was about the
same, but that the yield per acre not
over twO-thirds as much, and that the
acreage of clover seed was about one
fifth greater, and the yield per acre
probably been considerably wheat sowed
since October l, the estimate is doubtless
too low, and later reports are likely to
change the estimates of the yield of
clover seed and potatoes. COrrespOn-
dents will be asked to again report on
December the acreage of wheat sOwn,
and the yield of corn, clover seed and
potatoes.
The averages for the state is as follows:
Average price OF wheat during Septem-
Der, 81 %; price October 1, 81 "a; cOndi-
of pastures during August, IS; during
September, 70; supply of beef cattle, 81;
condition, 81; supply of sheep, SO; cOndi-
ton, SO; yield of winter apples, 40; yield
of peaches, 20.
The drOuth has been general through
out the state, though it seems to have
Teen less severe in the northern than
in the southern counties. 1t has mate
rally reduced the yield of some of our
leading crops, particularly corn and
potatoes, and has greatly injured the
apple crop. Winter apples ripened
prematurely, and have fallen to the
ground in large quantities.
Pastures have been so effectually dried
up in some localities as to necessitate
feeding of stock.
In consequence of the difficulty of turn
ming over clover sod for fallOw, and Of
the very general loss of the spring seed
ing to clover, the area summer-fallOwed
was somewhat less that usual, and the
acreage of stubble ground seeded to
wheat has been cOrrespOndingly in
creased. The rains came between the
LIST and 18th of September, just in time
to enable farmers to put in their wheat
in excellent condition. In some in
stances it was sOwed a little late, but
this is not to be regretted in view of the
continued warm and wet weather.

FORTY-SECOND GENERAL A.

But 1ittle was done in the legisla-
tGre this week outside OF the cleo
ton of United States senator, the
Hon. Howell f. Jackson, of Jack
son, Tenn. IAN account of which we
give our readers elsewhere.) Mr..
Jackson was elected on the thirtieth
ballot, by the combined votes OF
republicans and democrats, after it
had been fully demonstrated that a
republican could not be elected.
The Hon. r. R. Butler led the bolt
for the republicans by voting for
Howell +. Jackson.
At one time it seemed evident
that Mr.. Rose, a lawyer of Pulaski,
would he elected, but before the
vote could be counted, Rufus y.
Rhodes (dem.), from our own
county, changed his vote from Rose
to Jackson, and Butler following
soon after, insured the election Of
Jackson, on the Both ballot. The
vote stOod-Howell +. Jackson -,

During the morning hour on
Tuesday, Mr.. Rhodes introduced IA
memorial asking for the repeal of
the four-mile liquor law. Laid over.

sons, to givethe eolored people some
prominent recognition in the new
administration, by designating for
office some competent representative
man of their class. Whether / am

Col. THos. BAKER, formerly ed
itor Of the Paris tTenn.) Post. and
now the correspondent of the Louis
vile Commercial, writes an open
letter to his former paper, in which
he grandiloquently and hyperbolic-
ally baekslides from the unterrified
ranks of the democracy and goes
over to his more congenial friends,
the republicans. We expect the
Colonel's connection with the Com
mercial may have had something
to do with this "flop,p and if so, we
are not surprised, for it was recorded
long ago that a man cannot serve
two masters-he cannot serve the
devil and the Lord. Or perhaps the
Colonel is like "Fletcher's bulP'-
he always likes to go with what he
thinks is the largest crowd, for does
he not say, "The prejudices existing
against the democratic party's very
name viii, during this and genera
tions to come after, keep it in the
minority? The Colonel is first
class topper himself, and, strange to
say. puts this queer question to his
friend Travis: as a party worthy
OF support ARRAYS that fiops so
often ?" We put the same question,
in regard to him, to his new-found
friends. And then ne asks "Have
| deserted the democratic party, or
has the democratic party deserted
me ?" Itdoesn't make a bit of diff
ference, Colonel ''you pay your
money, you take your choice" The
democratic party can stand it if you
can. God speed thee, Colonel, but
remember that the democratic party
and its principles will live and
flourish like a green bay-tree"

ers have passed into charitable OBJ

..white Rurlex...

DEAR CHRONICLE: Can't you
give us few chapters on "White
BurIey" tobacco? Its time we farm
ers were being advised how to con-
duet our business by you farming
newspaper men. Be so kind as to
give us advice freely, and we will
at some future time reciprocate by
advising you how to run your paper.
The Tobacco Leaf pretends to be
operated strictly in the interest of
the poor farmers, but hardly ever
advises us how to cultivate and cure
our tobacco. For several months it
has not contained over ten columns
in each issue, telling us of the for
tune to be made by the abandon
ment of old fogy ways, and en-
braeing the modern idea, "White
Burley." Surely if it was our friend
it would advise us more freely and
frequently. We farmers remember
the wholesome advice two or three
years ago, to "cut about half ripe,
slap fires right under it and cure
black" 1t was to this intelligent adj
vice that we farmers were indebted
for the two beautiful "blue crops"
we sold in the years 1878 and 1879,
and our enrichment thereby.

killed rat there the other night

An,.asaero,rs season.

Still the worry goes on, scarcely a
day passes but that some unfortu-
nate dramatic venture is reported
as going under. Scarcely single
company scenes to be paying ex-
penses, and with very few excep-
tions none are paying salaries.
When the season opened predic-
tions of an unusually prosperous
year were rife, but the Presidential
campaign gave the first crushing
blow to the not over plentifuly
supplied bank accounts of manag-
ers, and their business has never re-
covered. The last to come in is the
Irving Dramatic-but one of the
many, and from present indications
another week will lend a goodly
array to the list of shattered specu-
latiors.-- Chicago Netcs Letter.

HEFOH ATORY FOR JUVENILE
CRIMINALS.
Gov. Marks, in his retiring mes
sage to the legislature, touching upon
this subject, SAYS:

Gov. Marks, in his retiring mes
sage to the legislature, touching upon
this subject, says:
There are a number of boys in the state
prison. The safety OF society will not per-
init their liberation. In justice 10 itself the
state ought not to deny them all means Of
reformation. They ought to be separated
provided for their education in the the pri-
mary branches OF learning. Whatever the
general assembly can do TO encourage re-
formatory Institutions in our cities ought TO
be done Our present methods for repress-
ing crime serve to confirm youthful crimi-
mails in their vicious course.
OF all the very sensible recon-
mendations of the retiring governor,
none, in our opinion, ought to COM
mand the thoughtful and prompt
attention of our legislative body
sooner than this important subject.
1t is a subject fraught with deep
interest to all philanthropists and
moralists.
Ii is a burning sin and shame that
the great state of Tennessee, which
has kept pace with all the other
states of the Union, in almost every
other move towards civilization and
refinement, should have so far neg
lected to take cognizance of this
CRYING want. Most OF the other
states have reformatory schools and
institutions where their young GRIM
inals are placed, and by systematic
training and teaching are redeemed
from theirvicesandO ncemOre turned
out upon society TO become Useful
and honorable citizens. We need
and must have reformatory asy-
Ium for youthful delinquents in
Tennessee, apart from the peniten-
tiary. where Instead of their being
schooled in all the arts and.intrica-
cies of vice, crime and sin, they
may be re-educated to a nObler and
better life, and learn how to add to,
instead Of detracting from and
breaking down the laws of good
government and society. Let our
legislature make haste and settle all
these destructive political disputes
