From the way things are running

would be Hendricks grand opportunity

adjourn suddenly after placing the old
ticket in nomination without giving
Gov. Tilden time to even send fiat re.
flsal by wire, and ifhe should still ad
here rigidly to his declination, the ma.
tional committee would then be called
together at once, and new candidates be
placed before the party. Hendricks
would not consent, under any circum.
stances, to take the second place with

ton College, delivered lecture Friday
evening, April IL, at Columbia College
on the subject. "The Geological History
of the Bad Lan.ls' of the West" The
audience flllad the large lecture room OF
the college. He said:
"The fossils Of the bad lands show
that the ear lest animals were altogether
of huge frame, but with small brain
development. Reptiles were then in
greatest abundance. The land which IL
now only covered with sage-brush, was
then the scat Of a luxuriant altitude in
modern days. The reason for the
change is the difference in altitude in
modern days. In those that part Of the
country was the lowlands along the vast
inland sea. Geological changes caused
the land to rise. The inland sea was
drained, and q series Of inland lakes
we're formed. As the tertiary period
drew near, the land rose .uill higher
and soon the whole inland sea was
drained and a vast fresh water lake wa.
formed in its place, extending over wha
now comprises the territories of Idaho
Wyoming, Montana and Utah. Wher
we come to the cretaceous age we fnd ,
change. Reptiles vanish and mammali
begin TO appear in their place. New
species are constantly appearing. II
1877 an expedition, though it was the
thirteenth that had traversed thu
ground, found fossil traces Of fifteer
new species, all mammals. The thre.
periods Of the tertiary age showed mark
ell distinctions. The bad lands are fer
tile no longer, and they never will be

sowed broadcast, and that the drilled grain
is injured by weeds and grass that do not
grow with that broadcast The drilling is
only experimental with us so far, and the
past season an unusual one, so that the re-
ports of results are not at all conclusive.
Only forty-one correspondents report on the
comparative condition of the grain soWed
by the two methods; of these thirty-six say
that the drilled is in the best condition,
which is strong evidence in favor of the
plan of planting.
THE FALL AND SPRING sOWN OATS.
It is estimated that "a per cent. Of the oat
crop was fall sown and 26 per cent. spring
sown. Two hundred and tWenty-seven cor
respondents report that the fall soWn prom
Use the best yield, and thirty-five report the
spring sown in best condition. Oats soWn
in August, September and October were
injured only slightly by the freezes, but
those planted in December and January,
and later, were very badly killed, especially
in light sandy lands. There has been re-
markable improvement in the appearance
Of both wheat and oats in the past few
weeks, and the indications now are much
more encouraging than month ago. Wheat
and oats have both taken on a very vlgo-
rous growth and are generally looking finely.
The estimated area of the present crop OF
wheat is 190,99S acres, against 1925 acres
for last year-an increase of s, 1888 acres, or
per cent. The condition is reported at 81.
The area in OATS estimated at 354, ,3lS acres,
against 32l 1858 last year-an increase of 32,-
$50 acres, or per cent.
Rye and barley are only planted in patch
es and for pasture, and the returns show
slight decrease in the area devoted to these
crops.
LABOR.
The condition of labor is about as usual,
somewhat more easily obtained than last
year, as many of the laborers who were ten
ants last year failed to meet their "advanc-
es" and cannot obtain accommodations
again, and are consequently forced to work
for wages. In Anderson and Laurens coun-
ties there is some desire among the negroes
ties, but this is only of local character, and
has not perceptibly diminished the number
of laborers, except in the immediate section
affected. One hundred and fifty correspon-
dents report the condition of labor as "goOd,"
TWENTY-FIVE as "bad" and eighty-seven as
indifferent" while ffty-five report a scare
ity of labor.
FARM SUPPLIES.
It is estimated that 13 per cent. more farm
supplies will be purchased this season than
last. This is due to the short crops of 1883.
FERTILIZERS.
The correspondents estimate that there
will be a decrease of five per cent. in the
amount of commercial fertilizers used this
season as compared with last. This esti-
mate is sustained by the amount of tax paid
into the Department of Agriculture by the
dealers in fertilizers. For the season of
1882 SO, up to April 1st, the tax was paid
on 92,260 tons; for the same period lS83-84,
on S7,O2S tons "a difference Of 5,232 tons, or
81 per cent.
1t is estimated that only about 8 per cent.
of the cotton crop of 1883 is now on the
plantations in the hands of farmers.
