August Crop Report.

The monthly crop report for August,
issued by the secretary of state on Fri
day last shows a material improy ement
in the wheat crop over the July esti-
mate. Reports from 500 correspond
ents give the average yield in the south
ern counties at 14.06 bushels per acre,
the central 1878, the northern 14.55
bushels. The threshers report an ex-
cess of the above, viz: 1886 bushels in
the southern and 1880 in the central
Correspondents do not concede the last
three figures, but admit that the crop
is yielding better than anticipated
and that the actual yield will be be-
tween the two estimates. The quality
is reported fully up to the average, on
ly % out of 512 correspondents reporting
it bad. The number of bushels report
ed marketed in July was 904, S41, and
for the year ending August l, 14,917,27f
Oats yield in the southern counties 90
central 81, and northern % bushels per
acre. The weight is light and the crop
not more than three-fourths of an aver
age. The hay crop is fully up TO the
average and was secured in prime con-
dition. The condition of corn is 70 in
southern counties. instead of 81 July 1.
1t is % in the central and 101 in the
northern counties. The condition of
potatoes is in the southern counties 90;
central 81, and northern 81 per cent, n
reduction of 81 per cent in the southern
for the month. Apples promise 20, 45
and 81 per cent of an average crop in
the southern counties, respectively.
The very marked decline in oats, corn
and potatoes is owing to 1.-THE severe an
extended drought, which has also seri-
ously affected meadows and pastures.

They Killed Song Birds.

Roscoe Welch, of Bloomingdale, and
William Culver, of Columbia, have been
doing Il land-oilice business for some
time past in the sparrow bounty bust
ness, and their greed for gain caused
serious defects of vision when on their
hunting excursions, and larks, black
birds, bluebirdS, robbins, thrushes and
other song birds were slaughtered to
swell the contents of their game bags
and, incidentally, their wallets with
the peoples cash. Bounty orders ag-
gregating nearly or quite one hundred
dollars were drawn on the county treas
urer by the township clerks of Bloom
ingdale and Waverly, in favor of the
enterprising bird-shooters, and paid
Such phenomenal yields of sparrow
heads from the back districts attracted
the attention Of the authorities and led
TO investigation and the arrest of Welch
and Culver. They were before Justice
Mason last Friday and, on their plea of
guilty, were find, Welch $50 and costs
"a total of Si2 and Culver $50. War
rants are out for other members of the
gang, and they, too, will be called upon
to disgorge some of their ill-gotten gain.
