some talk of dark horse, and circum-
stances can very easily come about

agents as well as farmers. We delight in showing
up our machine, for 1t amazes everybody that ex-
amiEes 1t because they at once recognize the fact
from the simplicity and durability of its construc-
ton that II is the most perfect piece of mechanism
in the line of a binder ever made. Farmers always
claim (before looking at our machine) that binders
all look alike to them but after examining the Est
ery they at once decided difference because It
does not look like car load Of bolts and wheels
thrown on pile at random and then call it ma
chine, but 1t has every bolt and wheel In plsce at
which 1t can do the work with the best advantage;
perfectly constructed frame, iron braces at numer-
ous places and hundreds of other things impossible
to explain here, all of which make the Esterly binder
the hghtest draft the most convenient of manipula
ton, the most durable In construction and the neat
est and easiest working machine In the market.
Other agents always claim that they selling the
best binder, but never tell the farmers why their
binder is the best, but we can make them under
stand why the Esterly is the best If we can only get
them to look at 1t. We don't have to howl about
one or two insignificant points such as Packer trip
or some other impracticabe thing to make 1t a ma
chine, but have numerous new points that are prac-
tical and speak for themselves which please the far
while the agents Of other binders look ut them
with envy In their eye.
One of the above diagrams will illustrate one Of
these points and we will be gladt to show the hum
dreds of others to any one that will come around
and see u.s. Furthermore we don't have TO 60 to

How He Lost His Situation.

"EXperience Keeps a dear school.n
1t is pity that young people will
not believe it when others tell them
so, without going to the expense of
testing it for themselves. A gentle
man asked his nephew, "How came
you, James, to lose your place?"
"Well, I'll tell you," was the re-
ply. II had an easy berth; got my
seventy-fye dollars month had an
assistant; didn't have to get down
till eight in the morning F.; left at five;
had a chance to take life easy, but
gradually began to take it too easy
didn't get down until nine in the
morning instead of eight; waited to
smoke two cigars instead of one;
grew careless of money, used four
dollars where 1 had been using two.
"First | knew my salary was cut
down a little, and then a little more;
but L couldn't take the hint but
fretted about my poor situation, and
one morning I walked up, after a
nights spree, and 10 1 didn't have
any situation at all, But 1 tell you
what 1 did have, uncle, I have my
experience"
That youth is working at forty-tiye
dollars month now instead of sew
enty-fve, but he already has six
hundred dollars in the bank. Would
that more of our youths might be
profited by his experience.

Crop Prospects in MARYLAND.

The report from the Agricultural
Department at Washington for July
thus sums up the condition of the
crops in Maryland
In the present year there has been
planted in this State, in round num-
bers, 100000 acres in corn, and al
though planted unusually late, the
season has been favorable to its
growth, and it is looking we'll and
healthy. The wheat crop has been
nearly all reaped, and it proves very
satisfactory, although not quite equal
to the crop of last year. While much
was Water-killed and lost by storms
and other accidents, the spring was
favorable, and it recuperated rapidly,
so that the crop will be an average
one. The same statements apply to
rye as to wheat. Oats, though sown
late, will yield above the average
crop of last year to a small extent,
though the acreage is not quite up to
last year. This year not more than
24,S40 acres was planted in tobacco,
areduction of about one-third as COM
pared with the area planted in 1879.
The cut'worm proved very dectruc-
tive to the early-planted crop, but
the hot days in June destroyed them,
and the general rains Of the last week
of that month enabled the replanting
to be done, and at present the condi-
ton of the crop is rather better than
usual. Glover, timothy and other
grasses have been unusual good. Pas
lures are fiourishing. with the excep-
ton of small portion of the State
where drought has occurred. The
sweet potato crop is promising, and
largely on the increase as to its form
er limited area. Irish potatoes have
increased in area at least 20 per cent.
over former years, and the present
condition is fiattering. The early
crop wac good and very prolific. The
peach "fall" this year was later and
greater than usual, which will reduce
estimates made at the time of the
heavy bloom. The actual product of
the crop may be set down at 100000
baskets. There will be less canning
than last year, owing to the large
stock left oyer in first hands. Prob
ably not oyer 500. 900 baskets will be
canned. About 250,000 baskets will
be dried or evaporated-an increase
over last year. There will be sold in
the markets, in and out of the State,
for eating fresh 100000 baskets, and
the balance of the product wasted
or consumed by the producers at
home. The prospect for all or fruits
and nuts is very good.

asked an aged Mormon on the shore
why it was his people had passed
such stringent laws concerning these
birds, and he told me this incident:
"When we first entered this valley
it was in the spring of 1S47. They
were trying times. All of our early
vegetables were burned up, but our
wheat, which had been planted in
limited quantities, was still left us.
We had our hope centered in that,
and when it was about half grown
millions of crickets made their ap-
pearance and commenced work of
devastation on our fields. We had
about given up in despair, when one
morning we were astonished to see a
large number of strange birds settling
down on our fields and commencing
a war of determination on the crick-
cts; and they never left until the last
one had been destroyed. They saved
our lives, and that is why we protect
them"

his restaurant on Cortlandt street,

on the way encountered another bOs-
ON friend, who told me that a quart
of warm salt water would come as
near curing cold as anything in the
world. 1 hardly thought l had room
for it, but 1 tried it any how. The
result was surprising. 1 believe l
threw up my immortal soul. Now.
as l give my experience only for the
benefit of those of your friends who

this conviction 1 warn them against

rather too severe. If 1 had another
