THIS SEASONS HAY-CRoP.

There has been no season for a de.
cade, we assert without hesitation, in
which the general crop Of hay, all over
the country, has been so abundant and
good as the present one. Except here
and there, in limited spots, where hail
storms have done more or less injury
Of no consequence at all, the crop has
been universally excellent and an ex.
tent beyond almost all precedent. 1t Is
with the greatest satisfaction we refer
TO this fact, because 1t is one of the ut.
most importance, hay, not cotton, be-
ny king! Look at the official statistics
value of the hay-crop compared to any
promptly discovered in the products OF
the Republic. Corn comes in second;
wheat, third; and cotton next. The
great Importance, therefore, OF a fully
hay-crop, which we so seldom obtain,
will place this question in the position
where it belongs aud where it will be
always recognized rs belonging.
1t must be remembered that hay, In
addition to its general value, possesses
the great advantage of not being a per-
ishable crop. 1t is not like other lead.
ing ones, that it must be disposed Of by
the time another is ready to take its
place. On the contrary, IL properly
stacked, it can be preserved in all its
sweetness and nutrition for half a dozen
years old, AS being equally strengthing
and more wholesome.
The stacks of gold, therefore, which
the hay.crop of the present year will
pile up for the American farmer will
last aud be felt for years, and will enable
many a one to lin the mortgage, restock
the farm and add many necessary imple-
ments TO the 'plant" of his estate.

gencies. The late potatoes may also be
regarded as secure, except perhaps a
prolonged drought, accompanied by ex.
tremely hot weather, should at once put
in an appearance and continue uninter'

half of September. The same fate may
await the corn-crop; hut in addition the
corn has other risks TO run besides
drought, which it can stand more per-
siNtently than almost any other crop,
which are severe hail and rain storms,
long continued wet and possibly early

in favor of escaping these, at least in
this section Of the country, where thus

green leaves open out in the spring. 1t
is a most vigorous grower, and bears
transplanting remarkably well. Were
its qualities known it would be valued
as an ornamental tree in any northern

maple yields a sweet sap from which
excellent sugar can be made, the chief
trouble being that at the time the sap
flows the flooding of the river makes it
difficult to reach the trees. On the
