The whistle of the threshing engine is now
heard, and threshermen are busy. Some of
our farmers are having their entire crops
threshed, while others are storing 1t away,
waiting for better prices.
Wheat is this vicinity will average about 10
bushels per acre, and is generally good
quality, but oats is an immense crop; The
most remarkable production of oats that we
have heard from thus far is that of Robert
Hewitt, who threshed 236 bushels from At
acres. Some wheat fields yielded well, while
others scarcely paid for the cutting. Among
the latter is Henry Steele's, who realized 80
bushels of wheat from 10 acres.

OTHER GAMES.
The Westminster club began a series oftwo
games with the New York Clio thing House
Nine, of Baltimore, yesterday afternoon. The
second game will be played this Saturday
afternoon, commencing at $50 clock The
Clothing House nine is a professional club,
being composed of players who have played
on American Association and League clubs.
The club has been playing all the season, sew
eral games a week, and has never been de-
feated except by the Westminsters, who won
two games from them on July 9Th and 18th at
Union and Oriole parks, Baltimore. Lovers
of sport on the diamond, who like close and
hotly contested games, should be on hand
On Thursday and Friday next, August 9th
and It'll, the Trenton club, of the Eastern
League, will be here to contest with the
Westminsters. The Trentons are a strong
professional nine, and stand well in the East
era League. These games will be interesting
also. The Trentons ought to be able to down
the Westminsters, but whether they can do
so will be tested next week.
GREATEST GAME OF THE SEASON.
The Athletic club, of Philadelphia, will
play the Westminsters here next Wednesday,
The Athletics stand fifth in the American AS
ISOLATION, and are the heaviest batters. They
downed the Baltimores two out of three games
this week. This will be the greatest game of
the season here, and no doubt will be largely
attended from all parts of the county. The
Athletics may defeat the home club, but they
will not have much margin to go on if the
Westminsters are in good trim. Schweitzer
and Cantz will be the Westminster battery.

Manchey The Manchester boys did not go
into the game with the expectation of victory,
but with the hope of making a respectable
score. At the end of the first inning the WIS.,
itors thought that they had snap, while the
audience thought that Manchester would be
disgracefully defeated At the end of the
fifth inning, however, Manchester led by four
runs. The last four innings the visitors made
fourteen raRs to the home team seven, leaV-
ing the score as above recorded. The Wis.
itors were watchful and active, and supported
each other admirably, and without making
individual mention all did well.
The home club lacked the same degree of
efficiency for want of practice. The nine that
played in this game were never before all
present at one time to practice. First base
man Hoffacker took every ball sent to him
without any apparent exertion, and he leaped
l8 inches from the ground and took fly ball
with the ease that swallow takes a bug in
the air. Wilson did effective work at the
bat, and when he walked to the plate the
fielders invariably stepped back. Masenhi'
mer pitched well, and it was conceded by
many that with practice and instruction he
would very soon hold a respectable place
among the leading pitchers. The others did
remarkably well. There was quite crowc
to witness the game.
