WEATHER CROP BULLETIN
For the week ending Tuesday, May
-, 1894.

The first of last week was marked
by exceptionally warm, showery
weather, and, except few severe local
storms which caused heavy rains and
hail, with high water, in some eases,
the conditions were most favorable for
a very rapid growth of grain and ger
mination of sown seed. Corn and po-
tatoeS came up quickly and everything
was most promising. In southern
counties the planting was nearly com
pleted and large progress made mall
sections. On the morning of the Is
the conditions changed with great sud
dennesS and rain, snow, cold and high
winds prevailed, followed Saturday
morning and Sunday morning by Sc
we're troSts and ice in nearly every
county of the state. Ice quarter of
an inch in thickness is reported from
macy parts, while the snow is given at
from two to six inches. Corn, pota-
toes and garden truck, which was
above ground, was cut down in many
counties; small grain seems not to
have suffered so much by the freeze,
and, except in few minor eases, it
has withstood the cold without harm.
1t is probable that the high winds
were the only saving agent, and these
caused some damage where grain had
made large growth The full effect of
the cold and wind will not be known
before another week has passed, espe-
cially on fruit. Correspondents gener-
ally consider the present cool and
cloudy weather as favorable, making a
more hardy growth and one which will
withstand later frosts the better.
OF course all work has been at a
standstill and must continue so until
dry and warmer weather prevails.
Water was drawn from cranberry
marshes the first of last week but was
again placed over the vines on the
frost warnings of the morning of the
Is, so that it is thought no material
injury was done. Tobacco plants
were slightly injured, probably more
by the snow and high winds.

suggestion or two. At the recent

emily requesting the proper author

such ceremonies would be very
great in teaching patriotism and IN
preparing the young orgood citizen.
ship. | trust that the comrades will
keep this question 50 constantly and
SO prominently before the public that
ii viii not be long before impressive
memorial ceremonies are held III all
of our educational institutions, pub
lie aud private, each year, AZ the time
indicated; and | am sure that you
will all join me i'll the hope and be-
lief that when the custom Is adopted
it will exist through the life of the
Republic. Ask the press, the pulpit
the boards, superinteudents, teachers,
children and public generally TO
cooperate with you in establishing
the custom. With that custom es.
tablishcd, with memorial ceremo.
MES in the hundreds of thousands
of educational institutions of our
land, as the 3oth of May approaches,
We need never fear, comrades, that
the Nation we contributed towards
reestabishing, will abandon the ob.
seryances that have become SO dear
to our hearts. Establish that custom
and Memorial Day exercises will be
rs notable for centuries to come as
they have been since the day our
ideal volunteer soldier and leader,
John a. Logan, introduced the
beautiful observance. The practice
that has grown up of Posts going in
a body to hear a patriotic sermon the
Sunday evening previous to Memoir
ial Day, is i'll all respects commend,
able, and should be continued.
May we not greatly enlarge the
number of patriotic sermons on that
occasion 10y respectfully requesting
the pastors of all the churches to
preach patriotic sermon the Sun
day, morning or evening, preceding
the day we strew flowers upon the
graves Of our comrades? | here
make that request of the pastors,
of all denominations, and ask that
the request be repeated and empha-
sized by the ex-soldiers and all other
patriotic people of the state. Any
thing that tends to improve Amerl-
san citizenship-and patriotism does
that-must be pleasing in the sight
of God. Patriotic teaching, no mat
ter where taught, tends to better
citizenship.
