THE WHEAT CROP OF 1888.
ITS CONDITION IN AMERICA AND EUROPE
 AS REPORTED FROM WASHINGTON.

The May returns of wheat to the De. partment of Agriculture of Washington, make the condition, compared with April averages, materially lower in New York, Michigan, Ohio and Illinois. The aver age is " for New York, the depreciation being heavy in Onondaga, Niagara, Gen. esee and Ontraio; for Michigan, 83; fol Ohio, 62; for Illinois, ee. Further loss is suffered by blowing up large areas in Ohio and Illinois. A reduction in Mis-. souri from 83 to 80 is also reported. In Indiana the condition averages 75 and New Jersey reports 10, both the same as in April. All the remaining Northern States show an improvement since the April report, as well as the Pacific coast and nearly all of the South. ern States. These averages are: Con. nect1cut, 96; Pennsylvania, 95; Delaware, 85; Maryland, 99; Virginia, 97; North Carolina, 96; South Carolina, 93; Geor. gia, o7; Alabama, 98; Mississippi, 92 Texas, 87; Arkansas, S6; Tennessee, 88 West Virginia, 90; Kentucky, 81; Kan sas, 91; California, "; Oregon, 72. This is an improvement of 15 points in Cali fornia and IT in Oregon.
 The average condition of the winter wheat is 833 against 80 in April. The loss in area from replanting in other crops may be assumed to reduce the prospect to that of April 1. In 1878 and 1880 the general average was 99; ir 1881 it was 88; in 1882 it was 1O2, 1T May of last year 100. In former years there were no May returns. Two years ago the average declined to 80 in July, Last year it increased to 104 at time ot cutting.
 Itshould be understood that in depart ment reports of condition 100 means s medium growth with full stand and g healthy plant. Ohio and Illinois State reports compare with last years crop. A dispatch from the London Statistica, agent, under date of April 28, reports al improvement in European wheat pros. poets during last month. In France and Germany rain is needed and higher temperature necessary. A reduced croI appears to be inevitable. In Austria. Hungary the prospect is favorable for al least medium crop.

The Farmer and the Squire's PeacOcks.

The London Echo tells this story of the troubles to which the English farmer Is subjected:
 ''There was large and sympathetic gathering of Devonshire farmers recent ly at Peamore, on the occasion of the sale of the stock of Mr. James Baker, who has been compelled to quit his farm, owing, it is alleged, to his having con- plained of the destruction of his crops and damage to his farm by 8 flock of forty peacocks kept by the landlord, MT. Trehawke kel elewich, and of the unduly large nbetspf rabbits which were al- loWe thesland. MT. Baker has had the stwenty-three years, and it has. bd 5hands of his family for half ac9ntury. Since the present land. lord came in possession the peacocks have beah~al alAssRed- to wander over the farm, feeding on the food given to the cattle. The rabbits last year totally de- stroyed a feaof eleven acres of wheat, causing the farmer serious loss. Appli- cation was m4de for compensation, but nothing came of it. Three days before Lady-Day 8 further conversation took place about the rabbits, and the agent told the farmer that he might kill them in any way he pleased. The tenant ex- pressed himself content with this, but three days afterward the landlord gave him six months notice to quit. The farm is in a high state of cultivation, and although MT. Baker will be entitled to compensation as between out going and and incoming tenant, it is estimated that he will lose fully 9500 by having to quit.

Manufacture of Apple Jelly.

The editor of 7he 1fairae Fdrn1ea' visited during last season small apple jelly factory Gin the town of Halifax, D and gives these particulars of methods and results. It is certainly better way to utilize the refuse fruit than sending it to the demoralizing cider mill
 "A water power and building used portions of the year for the manufacture of short lumber and chair stuff, is changed to drive a cider mill of sufficient capacity to grind 100 bushels of apples in twenty minutes. From tank be- meath the press it is pumped up into another on the floor above it, from whence it is conveyed in pipe to an adjacent building and into an evaporator such as IS used for evaporating sap or sorghum juice, except it is of copper in- stead of iron. The evaporator is 12 feet long, and by working the day and mak- ing long evening, 30 barrels of cider can be condensed. Apple jelly is simply condensed cider, the bulk of the water being removed by evaporation, and all other substances remaining. No sugar is used in this manufactory, though it can be added if desired. As here manu- factrlred it takes the place of the old fashioned cider apple sauce, only it is purer and better. We prefer it without the addition of sugar, and manufactured without it, it is much cheaper.
 "The jelly as it comes from the evap- orator is about the consistency of good thick syrup. It is drawn off into buck cts or boxes and soon assumes the jelly form so that the box can be turned top downward without disturbing the con- tents. The cider must be evaporated before fermentation takes place. The apples we saw were native fruit, and of no value except for feeding to stock or conversion into cider. The proprietors paid ten cents per bushel, delivered. Ten bushels of such apples will make bar rel of cider, and barrels of cider one of jelly. The apples for barrel of jelly cost the manufacturers $7, and the jelly made from barrels of cider of 32 gal Ions each, at 72 cents per pound, the present wholesale price, is worth $26.4 At this rate the jelly men are getting the lions share of the profits, after reckon ing expense of manufacturing, boxing and marketing. The boxes here are cheaply made and each holds 63 pounds net. Six of these are put into cheaply constructed crate and the product is thus sent to the market"

No ACc1DENT.-I was in Albany, on my way to my home in Western New York, some years ago, says 8 newspaper correspondent, in company with an old Quaker, when we were approached by dapper young man who wished to sell us accident insurance tickets for $1 ,OOO, for which he would only charge us 8 quarter of 0 dollar. ''Art thou con- nected with this road? inquired my Quaker friend. 1T am," replied the young man. "ThenI guess I will not buy any ticket, for if there were going to be any accident thee would not de- sire to insure me so cheaply"

HOW WATCHES ARE MADE.

It will be apparent to any one, who will OK anime SOLID GOLD WATCH, that aside Pom the necessary thickness for engraving and polishing, large proportion of the preciou metal used, is needed not only to stiffen and hold the engraved portions in place, and sup ply the necessary solidity and strength. The surplus gold is actually needless so far as UTIL- rrY and beauty are concerned. In JAMES BOSS PATENT GOLD WATCH CASES, this WASTE of precious metal is overcome, and the SAME soIIDrTY AND STRENGTH produced at from third to one half of the usual cost ot solid cases. The process is of the most simple nature, as follows: a plate of nickle compost ton metal, especially adapted to the purpose, has two plates of SOLID GOLD soldered one on each side. The three are then passed between polished steel rollers, and the result is strip of heavy plated composition, from which the cases, backs centres, bezels, &c., are cut and shaped by suitable dies and formers. The gold in these cases is sufficient to admit of all kinds of chasing, engraving and enameling the engraved eases have been carried until worn perfectly smooth by time and use without removing the gold.
 THIS IS THE ONLY CASE MADE WITH TWO PLATES SOLID GOLD AND WARRANT ED BY SPECIAL CERTIFICATE.
 For sale by all Jewellers. Ask for Illustrated Catalogue, and to see warrant.

 nedy's Fav rite Remedy.''
 From the PittstieLd (Mass) Eagle.
 Stone in the Bladderis very dangerous aiI- ment; but many most remarkable cures have of late been wrought by 'Kennedy's Favorite Reme- dy"-the invention Dr. Kennedy of Ron- dout, N. Y. Another striking case is now added to the list. MT. Peter Lawler, of Dalton Mass, states in a letter to pr. Kennedy that he had been troubled with bladder complaint for IA years snd had consulted at different times seven physi- rians; but nothing beyond temporary alignment of the pain had been worked. Towards the end of last January MT. Lawler called on Dr. Ken nedy. Sounding him, the doctor "struck stone." He decided that Mir. Lawler should first try the "Fayerite Remedy" so as, if possible, to avoid an operation. And here is the remarkable result: "Dear Doctor Kennedy-The day after came home passed two gravel stones, and am doing nicely now. If you would like to see the stones will send them to you" This letter bears date "Dalton, Mass, Feb. 6th," and is signed "Peter Lawler." The stones which are so large as to war. rant for [" Kennedy's Favorite Remedy the claim that it is the most successful specific for Stone yet discovered. now in Dr. Kennedy's possession Incidentally Mir. Lawler also states that the " Fav orite Remedy" at the same time cured him of a stubborn case of Rheumatism and it is fact that in all affections arising out of disorder of the liver urinary organs it is searching remedy and works marvellous benefits. It is in itself almost medicine chest. Order it of your druggist. Price $l.0O @ bottle.
