Mr.. President:
Your committee on statistics beg
leave to report that we find the task
assigned It's quite difficult to perform
with completeness aud satisfaction.
Fruit and vegetable growing tor profit
mas been carried on in this county, on
a small scale, for some years, but is
still an "infant Industry though IN
protected. In fact, ii is only within
the last two or three years that the
business has assumed the dignity of
al industry, but is rapidly increasing
in its proportions.
EARLY VEGETABLES.
The principal vegetable crops now
raised for shipment are beans, peas,
potatoes, tomatoes aud watc1melons.
These our gardeners produce early
and in great abundance. Cabbage
are successfully raised in the winter.
Up to this time about 1000 boxes of
beans have been shipped from this
county to Northern markets, and the
shipping season is not yet over. They
are shipped from about the 4th week
In April until about the first of June,
and bring good returns. The "valen-
tine" constitutes the principal bean
crop. They mature from four to five
picEings IN a season, in excellent con-
dition for shipping firm, green, large
and tender. They bring about Is per
better prices than New Orleans
and Mobile beans. They will produce
100 and more bushels per acre, and
bring All average OF not less than 81
per bushcl for the season..
Irish potatoes yield from 70 TO 100
bushels per acre.
Tomatoes will soon be ready for
market, without pruning or other
process.
Cucumbers, squash, beets, lettuce,
nc, yield in great abundance aud {
carly, Sweet potatoes, OF most :
EXCELLENT variety, will yield 200 bush !

The best medical writer's claim that the
successful remedy for nasal catarrh must be nom
irritating easy of application, and one that VIII
by its own action, reach all the remote sores and
liberated surfaces. The history Of the efforts to
treat catarrh during the past few years obhges
us to admit that only one remedy has completely
met these conditions, and that is Ey's Cream
Balm This safe and pleasant remedy has mas
tered catarrh as nothing else has ever done, and
both physicians and patients freely concede this
fact. The more distressing systems quickly yield
toll.

What a Time

People formerly had, trying to swallow
the old-fashioned pill with its film of
magnesia vainly Disgusting its bitter
ness and what a contrast to Ayers
Pills. that have been well called tined
icated sugar-plums" - the only fear be-
ing that patients may be tempted into
taking too many at a dose. But the
directions are plain and should be
strictly followed.
J. T. Teller, M. D., Of Chittenango,
NY, expresses exactly what hundreds
have written at greater length. He
says: ayers Cathartic Pills are highly
appreciated. They are perfect in form
and coating, and their effects are all
that the most careful physician could
desire. They have supplanted all the
Pills formerly popular here, and l think
it must be long before any other can
be made that will at all compare with
them. Those who buy your pills get
full value'for their money"
sSafe, pleasant, and certain in
their action" is the concise testimony
of DIR. George E. Walker, of Martins
vile, Virginia.
ayers Pills outsell all similar prep
arations. The public having once used
them, will have no others. - Berry,
