CROr REPORTS.
Favorable Indications Concerning tho
VI" Crops In Missouri and Knusns,

Favorable Indications C0nceruluE the
Crops In Missouri and Kansas.
sE. LOUIS, May ooo2.-From over two hun.
dred reports received by one OF the leading
and most respectable grain commission
houses Of this city, from all sections Of this
State, respecting the crops, the following
condensation is mnde: With three or four
exceptions, the reports indicate that never
before were tho wheat prospects so prom.
islns at this season Of the year; the late
cool weather has checked the rink growth,
and ut tho same time put stop to the
progress OF the chinch bugs, OF which there
are quite 4 number, but they have thus far
done no injury. Army worms have ap-
peared in the Southeastern counties, but
have done no damage yet. At one point
dessian flies have shown themselves
but in too small numbers to cause da,Eage,
nor has rust done any injury. Wheat Is
now heading ont and the generally ex-
pressed opinion is that wheat Is too fur ad-
vanced TO suffer by insects OF any kind,
even il young chinch bugs should appear,
which seems very improbable after the
recent cool, wet weather. The acreage
OF Wheat sown is much larger than was
harvested last season. Harvesting will
begin early in June If the weather is favor
able. - SO w 90 -i-j - r
Corn is aboutall planted ana the South
ern and Central counties show very good
standing for this time OF the wear. In
some sections it has received two plowings.
Cool weather has kept it itrbackward some
what, but on the whole it looks very we'll,
The acreage is larger than in 1881. No
tears Of damage by chinch bugs are an
tlclpatcd unless the weather during June
should be very hot and dry.
Ihe oats acreage is large; the crop looks
exceedingly well. With good weather har-
yestlng will begin during the first days OF
June. -. - q
Small fruit and apples promise very
well. Peaches appear less plentiful. Mead
ows and stock are doing well. Farmers arc
well up in their work and in fine spirits.
From Kansas the reports are numerous
and universally good. While the area
ssown is probably fifteen to twenty per cent
less than was sown last season larger yield
is expected. Chiuch bugs have decreased
considerably since the cool weather
set in but are still numerous. No damage
seems TO have been occasoned by them. In
the Northern counties il bot weather and
dry spells should occur the wheat may
sutler somewhat Harvesting will begin in
the Southeastern counties from May 25th
TO June lst, il the weather remains favora-
bic. The acreage planted with corn is fully
% per cent greater than that planted in
1851 and the stand is generally good. In
many sections the plant had an unhealthy
yellow appearance but was recently greatly
improved under the influence OF warm,
bright weather. No damage to corn by
chinch bugs is anticipated.

mysterious chamber III Canonchet, to
which visitors were never admitted since
Ex-Governor Sprague became the lonely
occupant OF the costly mansion, has at lust
been opened. A few days ago Mr.. Robert
N. Thompson, the trustee ior Mrs. Kate
Chase sprague, was permitted by ex-Gov-
ernor sprasue to enter it and remove the
rare iaces, vetvets, sa.ins and silks which
had been retained there under lock and
key since the Conkling episode. These
constituted the wardrobe OF Mrs. Spnguc,
which has been shipped to Edgewood.
The dresses include several that were made
by Worth. Ex-Gov. Sprague lett the room
in the condition in which it was when his
wife went away. 1t was one OF the most
luxurious apartments in the costly house,
and there was always great curiosity to see
i among the visitors TO the place, but ex-
Gov. Sprague always passed it by in silence
when escorting visitors through the house.
and his housekeeper had no Key to it. 1t
became known rs "thc mysterious cham.

owner OF the mansion. 54 Al. ~ 4.

The influence OF the soil upon the health

plainly during the prevalence of epidemic
