Crop Report.

Lansing, Mich, June 2l.- Reports
to the state weather bureau indica-
tons OF the past week have been fu-
vorahle to all growing crops. The
fore part of the week was quite warm,
the maximum temperature reaching
80 deg. and above, and the crops all
thrive well andpr the favorable condi-
tons of hipli temperature and plenty
OF rain. The rainfall for the week
was slightly above the normal, and.
while not well distributed, most Sec
tions of the state received fair
amount, which was badly needed aud
which has consequently greatly i,n-
proved all growing crops. In the
counties of Berrien and Mason there
were sections where no rain was re-
corded during the week, but copious
showers fell in the vicinity. In the
Counties of Calhoun, Kalamazoo and
st. Joseph, the amount of rainfall
was largely In excess. Some clover is
being cut IN st. Joseph County. Hay
cutting will be general next week, and
the anticipated crop will be light on
account of the droutf during May and
the fore part of June. Some few re-
ports of the grain ''aphis" have been
received, but the reports are not gen
eral. Cutworns are reported as work
ing cornin the southern section. In
the localities where the heavy rain
fell during the past week, the wheat
and oats were badly beaten down by
the storm, and it is too wet for corn
cultivation.

Free Trade Wages.

We have not ut hand the copy Of
the EDeniag Post of some months ago,
in which that earnest supporter of
British free trade and Welsh tin plate
pointed to Belgium as an illustrious
example Of a free trade country; but
we distinctly remember the article.
We have now before us, In the Lon
don Times. of June 5, an official re.
port on the condition of the working
classes in Belgium, which we respect
fully commend to the American
friends OF free trade. This official re-
port says that, In Brussels. "the aver
age daily wage of working man l.
81. lac. The income of working
man apart from his daily wage is nil,
Some few wor&ingmen's families enjoy
an income apart from wage earnings.
This income averages "a continues a

That is,sthe majority OF the families
of workineu,en Ia Brussels are oeca-
sionai paupers, dependent upon public
relief, probably when the husband
and father does not happen TO be earn
ing the free trade wage of sixty-three
cents day. The sum is really frac-
ton under that amount. And yet
Belgium is hive of industry. with
free ships and free raw material OF

according to an Official Belgian report,
