A gentleman called to see the Duke OF
Cambridge. Farquhar, 9 favorite
spoiled servant, said curtly to the visit.
or: "Ah. SIR, you can't sec H. II. II. in
this promiscuOus sort Of way. No sir,
you must wait-you must wait" The
gentleman took this treatment good
naturedly, and even talked few min
utes with the man, who was original and
amusing. Then he said: "Well, Mr..
Farquhar, you are . very pleasant fel.
low, but, as my time is valuable, I can
not wait any longer. Tell H. Il. 81. that
Lord has called" mentioning one
of Her Majesty's Ministers. Farquhal
pushed up his spectacles and looked In
silence moment straight at Lord
then said ooolly, without the slightesi
embarrassment: "Why did you not
tell me your name at first? How could
tell you we're . Lord and Q Ninister

nounoed him.

PROSPECTS OF FINE WHEAT CROP-RUST AND
BUGS IN SOME DISTRICTS.
ST. PAUL, July 4.-The weather contin-
ues changeable, with warm days, cool
nights, and frequent showers. Reports
from the grain-held are not so uniformly
favorable as last week. There are Occa-
sional reports Of rust and bugs. A dis
patch from Wright county, one Of the
largest northern counties this side Of the
Red-River Valley, says: "Wheat is head
ing out and coming TO the front grandly,
and the growth is rank on the
ground, and Of fine color. Oats are also
good, but we are having too much rain for
corn, not to the injury of corn, but it pre-
vents working ii as much as should be.
Corn. however, looks fine, both in color
and height, and compares very favorably
with any year. Potatoes are going to be a
good crop" Reports from Rochester, the
largest city in the interior Of Southern
Minnesota, have been encouraging the
past week to the farmers Of this county.
The rains have sent vegetation along very
fast, and, assisted by the warm weather,
all crops look IN fair way TO
return the farmer rich harvest. Corn
especially has improved in color. and
STONtu, anu WIN ldNOidDlc MtdbucT Ill
July and August will be fair crop. Bar
ley is heading, but in most sections is short
and not as thick as could be wished, but
promises Il fair yield. Oats are looking
vigorous. Wheat looks well, but is rather
thin, and there is danger Of the chinch-
bugs iniuring il in some sections. They
have already injured barley some, but the
general outlook is favorable for fair har-
vest. The following is from Mankato, the
principal town in Minnesota Valley :
"Crops all looking fine; no rain or
hail. Ii the weather continues as it has
been we will have the best crops
we have had for years. The weather is
partially cloudy and warm; had quite q
heavy rain yesterday, which done more good
than harm" From Luverne, in the eX-
treme southwestern county of Minnesota,
it is reported that small grain is heading
out; rye nearly ready for harvest; will
yield well; flax doing well; corn eighteen
inches TO two feet high; prospects better
than for several years past. Uadley, 4
small town near Luverne, sends the inst
report Of rust as follows: "Crops are look
ing well, except wheat. IL is rusting on
the blades. The earliest sown grain is be-
ginning TO head out. Corn Is just boom

A Discovery I'm tho Cotton States.

IF TRUE-A PLANT WHICH is
BOTH FRAGRANT AND VALUABLE.
ATLANTA, July 4.-Attention is now at
tracted TO a new sort OF cotton-plant which
bids ff'~ TO prove immensely valuable. For
many \ ears Mr.. 4. 4. Subers, OF Macon,
has been carefully experimenting TO hy-
bridizc the cotton-pIant that grows wild
in Florida with the common okra. The
cOtton-plant used Is Of that species
winch is found on the lowlands Of the
CaloOsahatchie river. The new plant re-
tains the okra-stalk and the foliage OF the
cotton. Its flower and fruit, however, is
strikingly unlike either cotton or Okra. The
plant has an average height OF two feet,
and each plant has only one bloom. This
is a magnificent flower-very much like the
great magnolia in fragrance, and equally as
large. Like the cotton-blOom, the flower
is white for several days after it opens,
after which il is first pale pink, and gradu-
ally assumes darker shades Of this color
until it becomes red, when it drops, dis
closing wonderful boil. For about ten
days this boil resembles the cotton-boll.
and then its growth suddenly increases as
il by magic until it finally reaches the size
of a big cocoanut. Not until it reaches
this size does the lint appear. Then its
snowy threads begin to burst from the
boil, but are held securely in place by the
okra-like thorns or points that line the boil.
one inexperienced picker can easily
gather 800 pounds a day, and fast hands
much more. Were the only saving that OF
labor in gathering the lint, the result OF
Mr.. Subers's experiment would entltle him
to the everlasting gratitude Of the southern
farmer. But this is not all-there are no
seeds in the lint. Each boil produces
about two pounds OF very long staple cot
ton, superior TO the Sea Island, and at the
bottom Of the boil there are from four to
six seeds, resembling persimmon-seed.
This new cotton, therefore, needs no GIN
