FROM careful analysis of over $500 crop re-
ports sent in by practical farmers in every state
and territory in the union the Rural New Yorker
concludes that the winter wheat crop viii aggre-
gate 2lO;0Oe,OOO bushels, and tb2 spring wheat
crop l55,0l0,O00 bushels, making an aggregate
crop of S65,OO0,0O0 bushels--a falling off of
l47,0OO,OC0 bushels from last years crops. Oats
will be the largest crop ever harvested. Rye
and bailey, fair crops. The corn area is larger
than ever before; and the outlook good for an
average yield per acre.

Shortly after the conclusion of the base ball
game the rain began coming down in fitful gusts
and soon the dancers in the b)wery, where be-
fore all s'went merry as marriage bell" to
the excellent music of the Rondell string band,
were obliged to forego the fascinating maises of
the giddy waltz and seek shelter in adjacent
buildings. The bowety floor soon assumed a
condition bordering on the sloppy, but, never
theless, dancing was continued until midnight
whenever cessations Of the rain made it at ell
possible, and there is not the slightest doubt but
that the many participants enjoyed themselves
immensely. The music furnished was excep-
tionally fine, the band being reinforced BIZ q
B fiat cornet skillfully manipulated by Nate
Plummer.
Thus concluded one of the best times ever
held in this portion Of the territory and one for
which the citizens of Warner are indebted I'd the
untiring zeal of heseyeral committees. Here's to
the 'tGlorious Fourth and wishing that it came
dozen times year.

THE Hessian fly, which is doing SO much
damage In Kansas, derives its name
from the fact that it is supposed to have been
brought into this country in straw by the
Hessians during the revolutionary war. lis
body is only about ene-eight Of an inch long,
but the fly is sodestructiye, especially to wheat
and barley, that it has been the cause of local
famines. The female lays twenty or thirty eggs
each one-ffteenth of an inch in length, in the
crease of the leaf Of the young plant, and tie
Larvae, when hatched, work their way between
the leaf and the stalk till they come to joint
a little below tie surface, where they remain,
head down, sucking the sap. The result is
SMALL aborted ears, the few grains of which
shriyel and will scarcely ripen, the straw also
being of an inferior quality.

ThN Visitation of Locusts.

For the first time in half century, according
to high agricultural authority, two kinds of
visitors are due at the same period, the seven and
seventeen year old iocusts. The simultaneous
appearance of the two armies at this time was
predicted several years ago, and the prophecy
turns out to be only too true. The destructive
pests were first heard of along the Pacific coast,
where their work of destruction has already be-
gun. Swarms of locusts have been found on
Long Island, New York, and in Brooklyn the
grassy commons give evidence Of their presence
The circumstance that most affect the mind of
the observer, says Brooklyn paper, sis the
apparent spontanety with which they are gem
Grated from the soil itself. The very ground
seems to be alive with them, not in their ma
tured condition, as though they had come from
great distances, but In every stage Of develop
ment, as though their ova had been incumbat-
ins in the ground and had suddenly yielded up
the billions of insects that cover the surface.
That those eggs should have been lying in the
soil for seventeen years, waiting the signal for a
universal resurrection, is one Of those myster-
ious dispensations which bring us little closer
to the more majestic problem OF life and death.
That such is the case, however. seems to be in
disputable. Nothing In nature is more re-
sistless than the onward march Of locusts, moth
ing more emblema 10 of the scouraee of war
than the blighted fields and ruined harvest, the
leahess trees and the blacksned landscape which
he resigns to the heartbroken cultivator. To us,
with our rapid system of locomoton, our gram
aries full from one years end to the other, and
a LOCUST has no such terrors as he EXERCISED in
ancient times; as he does yet for the Boer, the
small husbandman Of the Balkin peninsular and
the poor ryot of India. 1t has been said that
the locust has taken more lives than the sword.
AS q curiosity, an enemy vanquished by civiliza.
tion, he warns the fancy and assumes the grace
of ronrnce. The days Of his knight-erranty are
over, so far as we are concerned. but be is very

Anger to Bore a squar. Hole.

-"The frst and only auger ever manu-
featured that will bore square hole"
according to the Cleveland Leader, "is
now In the shops Of the Cleveland Ma
chine company. This anger bores q
inch square hole, the size used in ordi-
nary frame buildings and barns, but
they can be made on the same principle
to bore square holes of any size. It's ap-
plieation Is ordinary, and works on the
same principle as reund-hOle augsrs. Its
end, instead OF having a screw or bit,
has a cam motion which Oseiliates cut
ter mounted on steel reeking knife
which cuts on both sides. In order to
prevent the spllntering Of the wood. the
ends of the cutter are provided with
small semi-eircnlar shaped saws, which
help in cutting 0utperfectly square cor
ners. 1t is estimated that the new pro-
cess will save the labor of three men
who work with chiseIs. as one man can
conveniently cut 2 inch mortiee in the
same length Of time he could bore a
round hole. The invention is tho work
of q Wooster man who has given the sub
ject years of patient thought"

In Queen Elizabeth's Time.

Nightg0wns were not known, and the
custom was to sleep entirely without
clothing. Under the TudOrs night gowns
were worn, formed mostly of silk and
velvet. Annie Boleyn's night dress was
made of black satin, bound with black
taffeta and edged with velvet of the same
color. One of Queen Elizabeth's night
gowns was of black velvet, trimmed with
silk lace and lined with fur. In 1868 her
majesty ordered George Bradyman to de-
liver three score and six of the best sa-
BILE skvnnes to furnish us nyghtgOwR."
In like command from her majesty in
1872 she ordered the delivery of twelve
yard Of purple velvet, priced on the backe
syde with white and russell silke," for a
nightgewn for herself. At the same
time she orders fourteen yards of MUIR
raw damask "for the making OF night
gOwns for the Erie of Lycester." Night
dresses we're called "Right rails" later
on, and in the reign of Queen Anne it
was the fashion to wear them In the
daytime over the usual dress. This gave
rise TO much raillery Nightcaps were
mostly Of velvet and silk, and these with
the night dresses. the silken shirts. and
other apparel of the kind, eased the
laandries, but they must have given the
wearers graphic fOretaste Of the trouble
some hereafter. No wonder tho Duke Of
Argyle erected posts all over his estate
for his tenants to scratch themselves
against.

Saved by IA Minute.

During the last week or two, writes a
correspondent, avalanehes have been
more frequent than is usual at this time
OF the year on the Swiss side Of the great
st. Bernard Hospiee. Nearly every morn

servants and several mastiffs, goes cat
look for fOOtsOre and possibly psrlshing
wayfarers. 1t is literally a man hunt,
for the mastiffs quest" like any Othet
hounds, and can scent bodies at a con
siderable depth under the snow. About

wants, who went out on an expedition Of
this sort, narrowly escaped exchanging
the role Of saviors for that of victims.

the thunder of coming avalanche.
The avalan che passed without touching
him, but when he looked around his
companions had disappeared. The next
moment, however, one OF them struggled
out OF q heap of snow. But where was
the other? The Canon faRcied he could
see black maLk on the snow some dis.
lance away. They ran to the spot at
once, and, surely enough, the black mark
was one of the lost mans boots. The
rest OF him was buried under the ava
lanche. An attempt to drag him out by
the leg failed-the weight Of Snow was
too great. There was nothing for 1t but
to dig their companion out with their
hands. 1t was done only just in time.
