NEARING THE END.


ANU ctaCh oCaAVH ShunIuk-NAHHb-
ties Yet 20 Come.
The end Of the peach season ia now at
hand, and by the last Of next week the
shipments Of fruit will have dwindled
down to an uncomfortable quantity.
While there will be few peaches sect TO
market up to the frat Of October, next
week will finish what growers regard az
the season proper. Ruddings Late Red,
Shipley's Late Red, Fox's Seeding, Della
ware White and Crochet White are the
main varieties being shipped at this
time. Directly following these are the
Smock AID Solway, the latest varieties
Of peaches grown on the Peninsula in
any considerable quantities. OF the
Shocks, the better Of the wo, there ia q
fairly good yield, while the Solwsys are
scarce and only in certain parts Of the
fruit district have they ripened fully. The
Shocks are nice preserving fruit and q
great many of tn m will BIZ put up in
tins on the Peninsula leaving but few to
be shipped to market.
The season has been an extraordinarily
good one tor growers, especially for those
whose orchards are in the lower part OF
the State. The owners Of the orchards
In the lower part Of the belt get their
fruit into market in advance Of more
northern growers, and get larger returns
beside having 1t out of the way when
the glut comes. In the cultivation Of
early varieties there ia the most profit,
and there is constant effort
going ON among nurserymsN and peach
growers to propagate species OF the fruit
that will ripsn two or three weeks 10 ad
vance Of any kind now grown. There
is a bonanza awaiting the grower who eau
thus discount every other variety on the
Peninsula. Various attempts in this
direction In the past have partially failed
although the efforts have had fruit in the
propog of new varitiss earlier and
better,

T. N. Williams started upon his annual
tour among the teachers Of the State Mon

tiLues through New Castle, Kent and
Sussex counties In the order named. The
work will keep him busily employed for
q long time TO come, and in It he will be
ably assisted by his assistant Il. G. Car.
penter.
Supsrin tendent Williams goes into his
work this year very hopeful Of excellent
results, and with 10 pounds added to his
avoirdupois. He Is enthusiastic upon the
ability Of his teachers and the Increased
interest the people are showing in the
cause Of free schools. Next year he
thinks the teachers will be paid better
salaries, as the State appropriation will
give nearly 5000 To each school. With
an increase in salaries, still better
equipped Instructors will be called to the
work, and the examinations will be more
rigid than In the past. The superinten-
dent ia a firm believer in paying COED
salaries, and requiring good work.
10 reviewing the schools and teachers,
he states that there are but four men in
the public schools OF this county, while
there are 90 women. Ths beet salaries
are paid here-$2S per month on an aver.
Age-Rnd the school term in New
Castle county Ia 10 months.
In Kent county the term is eight mouths,
and the salaries average about $25 per
month. OF the 1870 teachers in the
oounty's schools, Is are men. Sussex
county has the shortest school term Ave
months and pays its teachers an average
of $25 per month. Iu the county there
are $50 teachers the women still predomi-
mating, though there are about 90 men
Mr.. Williams intends holding public
meetings In several eohool districts OF this
county, ard to awaken an interest in
educational matters among the people.
He will advocate the erection OF new
school houses In places where those in
use are old and in bad state Of repair.

THE ToBAt co CROP.


49, .aled Prers DlBpEtef ~ olsciai vifs.
sPRNoFrELD, MASS Sept. 10 tx
hansIlys reports Oh the tobacco crop from
900 correspondents Of the NeD England
Homsstsad, covering all the seed zeal
tobacco growing sections Of the
United States indicate that the crop
now nearly harvested Is the best
in growth and quality that has been
raised for years. The total average may
be slightly less than In 1883, but the pro
portion of Havana seed Leaf has greatly
increased. Fully two.thirds Of the en-
tire seed Leaf crop ia OF the Havana
variety, the balance being common seed
leaf.
The tobacco counties OF Ohio, Illinois
and Indiana are the only sections report
ing unfsvorAbly. There, drouth and
graeshoppers have done more or less
damage. In New England, New York,
Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, there has
been an almost entire absence Of hail.
Only in few limited localities has il
been destructive. Wind, rust and
tises have done comparatively
little damage. Very slight harm
was done by the light frosts Of August
18th principally In Chemung county,
New York. Green worms have been
phenomepally scarce and leaf ia remark
ably sound, while its good size will make
it good wrapper crop. Buyers generally
inspect the crop as II is about being
harvested.
The actual offers for the new crop show
that Havana is likely to command good
prices. From Is to 20 cents per pound
aAs been offered in New Englsnd for
Havana; Is to 80 in New York, and in
one instance in Pennsylvania rs high as
40 cents. In Wisconsin Is to 20 cents
a pound has been refused for |
Havana, the growers expecting a
higher price. The common seed leaf does |
not attract attention except in the favored /
sections Of Connecticut valley, embracing
the towns Of Glastonbury, Esst Hartford
and the Windsors, always famous for
their fine seed leaf.
While the crop is large II bids fair to
be the greatest wrapper crop ever grown. |
This ia one reason for the good prices. Old
tobacoos are pretty thoroughly used up.
Indeed the shortage has not been 30 great |
for years. The 1883 crop now about
sampled is not up to the average In |
quality, while in quantity 1t WAS cut
short by the early frosts last fall. Its
popularity also is questionable.
The present defective tariff on tobacco
will be remedied by the next Congress,
compelling all Sumatra wrappers to pay
rs cents per pound duty. There are
sound and inoontrovertible reasons why
tair prices must and will prevail
for the 1884 crop. At the
same time the large crop
will make it dubious policy to hold for
extreme prices as 4 whole. Therefore
the 1884 seed leaf crop is one OF the old
fashioned kind that will make money for
growers, dealers and manufactures.

special Correspondence of Gazette and journal.
BLKToN, Sept. 5.-Your correspondent
wi hes to deny the statement published
In Baltimore daily that an epidemic Of
typhoid fever Is raging in this town, and
that several deaths have resulted from
that cause. There have been few cases
Of typhoid in Rlkton, bat the perBons

exception. 1t was oolored woman who

The managers OF the Cecil County
Agricultural Society are doing all in
their power to make the fifth annual fair,
which will be held here on October 7th,
9Th, 9th and 10th, the most successful in
the history of the society. A large force
of men ia engaged in constructing, at a
cost of $4,000, an immense exhibition
building. The exhibits previously shown
in the large room beneath the grand
stand will be put in this, as we'll as other
displays which its capacity will accom-
modate. Ths amount Of new stock issued
to meet this expenditure is mostly taken.

awarded the contract for repairing the
grand stand to James p. Merritt Of this
town. The front Of the stand will be
made much lower so that all persons on
the stand will have clear view Of the
racing. This will be a much needed i'm
provtment
There will be four races on each day OF
the fair, except the first, Tor which only
three are announced. There will be
running rsoe on both the second and
third days. The entries for the races
will close on September 22l. The man
ayers propose to add other smusements,
the nature Of which will be announced
in the future. Our fair is said by those
informed to be more like state than
county fair. The fact OF the Middletown
exhibition being discontinued will add to
the attendance. The premiums are large,
aggregating over &c, 900. Owing to lack
Of interest the fair ball will not be held
this year.
