GOVERNMENT REPORT.

Weekly Bulletin as Reported By the Stat
istictan Of the Department Of Asricult-
ure.
There 10 reduction in the condition Of
sil cereals - reported by the statistician
OF the department Of agriculture. The de-
cline from tho LIST of July to tho lst OF
July 10 from 1871 to 1913 IN corn; from 94.4
to 63.2 in spring wheat; from 8l6 to 7O.l
in oats; from 8S.3 to 1913 in barley. Con.
dition of buckwheat is 90.1 and Of spring
rye 66.S. Condition Of Irish potatoes IL
reduced from 9l.7 to TIA.
A fall Of twenty points indicates the
disaster which has befallen the corn crop
within thirty days. The cause 10 the ab-
normally high temperature Of tho central
maize districts with insufnciency OF rsin-
fall. The returns Of drouth, which cover
. broad area, and the severity of effects
produced, are more general and depressing
tempsratnre appears TO indicate.
One factor in the blightiDg Of
vegetation is evidently the hot winds that
have scorched the lower basin OF the Mis-
souSi valley and the Ohio valley. The
change from drouth to daily saturation by
repeated and heavy showers has been tco
sudden and extreme In those regions whore
droath has been relieved by seasons Of
moisture. The crop IL late In the New
England states and will require long
warm season TO mature it. In the Middle
statss the high Temperature has advanced
growth in the northern districts, and In the
more southern there has been some injury
from drouth. The south Atlantic states
repest local drouths, with subsequent rains,
and comparatively good though somewhat
reduced condition Of corn. Some coun.
ties n Mississippi have suffered materi-
ally from absenos OF seasonabls
moisture. In Louisiana, the crop is in high
condition, though somewhat late In the
ovefnowsd districts. In Texas the crop 10

Yielding Better Than Expected.

The report of the Kansas state board Of
agriculture for July indicates that growing
crops in every portion OF the state havs
been seriously injured BY severe droutb,

say the corn crop this year will not exceed
75,00o,0 900. The yield OF wheat 10 found
to be better than expected. Thirty to forty

WE HAVE had frequent occasion to
commend the frankness and candor OF
our esteemed Democratic friend, the
Eureka Messenger, and We are again
indebted tor the following comment
on the Ocala platform, which we COM
mend to the careful reading of Repub-
licans:
1t will be readily observed that with
the exception of the sub-treasury
scheme and the conditional clause con-
corning government ownership of rail-
roads, the alliance brethren have adopt
ed substantially a democratic platform.
And farther, of the entire platform
adopted these two features which are
outside the line of democratic policy
drew forth controversy and differen &c
of opinion among the delegates, while
all the other planks were adopted with
unanimity. This clearly shows one
thing: That the alliance men can COM
pletely agree only on the issues to-day
championed by the Democratic party,
and whenever they step outside the
beaten path of democracy differences
of opinion arise.
