The average Of cloudy days for the 10
years is only 40 per year. The average
number of rainy days in that period is
only Al per year for II months,
and the record includes all
days on which one hundredth
part of an inch of rain
fell. Think OF it! In ten years the
mercury reached 80 degrees only 159
times, and fell to 80 degrees on only six
occasions. In the same period the
cloudy days averaged only forty-nine
per annum, and the days when any rain
fell came to only the beggerly account of
an average of fortv-one per year.
Here is the average total precipitation

The total average per annum for the
ten years is 17.45. Note that the rain all
falls in the months between November

Another fine point about our climate is
the dryness of the atmosphere during the
greater portion of the year. During the
warm period of the year the average
humidity is very low. For the past year
by months the record runs as follows:

Mr. Whartons well known devotion to the

1883, since which time he has worked jealous
ly for the league, visiting different cities In

Important Points In Corn Culture.

American Agriculturist says: Better
two vigorous stalks than four weak ones
because crowded and sparingly fed.
For cut worms try mixture of ono
part salt to two parts land plaster, drop
ping n little at each hill. Select seed
carefully, and keep selecting. Build up.
Pedigree in corn is as valuable as pedigree
in animals.
A study Of the methods by which three
times the average yield Of corn was made
shows that in all there was an unusual
amount of work expended in preparing
the seed bed.
Drilling produces the larger yield and
profit, except on very foul ground.
Corn may do well on hilly land Though
the crop must be uneven), but nearly al
ways the land will loso heavily by tho
denuding action of rain-often so heavily
as TO make grass or small grain more
profitable crop.
II the 1888 corn crop were loaded on
two horse wagons, thirty three bushels
to the load, and tho wagons were placed
twenty-six feet apart, or as nearly as
possible in a string. the string Of wagons
would reach twelve times around the
globe--300, 900 miles.
Nothing promises TO SO revolutionize
the present waste of corn fodder in the
west as the new but growing practice of
cutting the field corn close TO the ground
as soon as the kernels are well glazed
and putting the whole crop directly into
the silo, either whole or cut into half
inch lengths, ears and all.

BASEBALL south.
The Southern League and Its
Future Discussed.
VINO PRESIDENT WHARTON Is.

Atlanta. Chariesson. Chattanooga, Mobile.
Memphis and REV Orieans Are In the
League, and the Prospects fer . Coed
esasou Are Promislng.
In looking over the Southern Baseball
league after tho first few weeks Of its exist
ence, there seems to be no reason why the
national sport in tho south should not soon
become a. popular a. elsewhere. There are
enough admirers Of the game in New Orleans,
Mobile, Memphis, Chattanooga, Atlanta and
Charleston to support good clubs, and these
cities, representing the league Of 1850, will
see the season finished.
Il has always been difficult to maintain .
league In the south. Nevertheless the sport
has not lacked ardent supporters, and interest
this year ia undoubtedly greater than ever
before. This is due TO Q number Of causes,
one Of which being tho influence lent by
young men. The presidents OF the clubs are
all young business men OF influence, and they
are making special efforts this year to make
the Southern league not only pay expenses
but dividends also. Some Of the clubs will
undoubtedly come out with cash In tho treas
ury, and IL Is doubtful II either Of them will
lose money.
Birmingham was dropped recently for rea-
ton, Mobile taking her place
The Southern league has completed its
first month, with six good clubs, and better
prospects than ever for a prosperous exist
ence. That same first month was a trying
one, and the league having successfully
passed through the troubles with which 1t was
beset furnishes the best argument for the
hopes centered in it. The Birmingham ex-
change was quickly made, and Atlanta did
not have to lose a day in playing its schedule
game.
Mobile has turned out fine crowds, larger, ir
fact, each day, except Sunday, than New Or
leans The pluck Of the Gulf City in patch
ing up nine and jumping into the league
on such short notice has earned for them the
admiration Of the other cities They will
strengthen and will be heard from in the rnce.
With the exception Of the of days, that all
clubs have, the league is playing good ball,
and New Orleans will have hard fight to
keep its lead.
Charleston, however, Is making hard fight
for the pennant, and New Orleans, Chatta-
nooga, Memphis and Atlanta are in the race
for first honors All Of the clubs, having
now played at home and abroad, show better
material than was at first supposed, and the
indications are In favor Of close fight before
the season closes

Wharton in this sketch, and the cut herewith

A rumor comes from the Dead river
logging camps that two trout fishermen
recently resurrected curious relic OF
antiquity from beneath the placid waters
of one of the Carrying Place ponds. The
story goes that they had finished fishing
and were about to start for their camp
when they found themselves unable to
raise tho anchor from the bottom. The
rope was strong, however, and redoub-
ling their efforts they pulled to the sur.
face rude shallop partially filled with
stones, which had caught upon one point
of the wooden killock. The boat is sup
posed to be one Of those used by Bene-
dict Arnold in his daring but fruitless ef.
fort to capture Quebec. This is more in
