April Crop Report.
MICHIGAN.
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
Lansing, April o, 1895.


On the first day of April, the frost had moi
all gone out of the ground even in the south.
ern counties Of Michigan. The weather
during March was cold and dry. The mean
temperature was below the normal, and the
precipitation very light. OF course wheat
and grass made no growth i'm March; they
had not even ''greened up" when cores
pondents mailed their reports on April 1.
Following are the figures indicating average
condition as estimated by correspondents,
but 1t will be understood that these figures
are subject to revision when the weather
conditions have changed.
Compared with average years the average
condition Of wheat in the southern counties
was S3 per cent; central and northern coun-
ties 80 per cent, and State IS per cent One
year ago the average condition I'm the state
was estimated at 80. In March, 1894, the
weather was remarkably warm, with only a
moderate amount of precipitation.
The total number or bushels of wheat
reported marketed by farmers in March is
$50, 697, and in the eight months, August
March, 8.S60,315 which is 2,563, 2S1 bushels
less than reported marketed I'm the same
months last year. At 33 elevators and mills
from which reports have been received.
there was no wheat marketed during the
month.
The average condition of clover meadows
and pastures is as follows: Southern and
central counties 80 per cent, northern 50 and
state 81 per cent.
The continuously cold weather has been
very favorable for fruit, and the outlook at
present Is promising for full average crops.

1t is evidently the plan of the democratic
party to take up the cry for the free coinage
of silver and endeavor to make 1t the rally
ing cry for the campaign of 1896.
Senator Mcmillan expresses himself on
the silver question as follows:
"The republican party stands pledged to
the restoration of silver as money metal,
and the republican party never fails to full
fill its pledges. Free coinage OF both silver
and gold is bound to come under safe condl-
ti0ns. The international silver conference
called by Germany makes 1t bound to come
and perfectly safe to every interest OF the
country"
BY rousing majority the electors of the
township of Perry demonstrated their wish
last Monday at the polls for the township to
receive the same dutlful services which have
been its lot ever since John A. Morrice has
represented the township in C0runna. In
II. A. Spaulding, Mr.. Morrice had an OPP
ponent worthy of his steel, and we know
of no one better to succeed to the Office Of
supervisor than he would have been. But
a large majority evidently believed in the
maxim of ''letting good enough alone" and
gave John their votes. Under Mr.. Morrice's
administration the affairs of the township
have always received honest and impartial
treatment and his election is good healthy
slap in the face of those, who, for personal,
selfish motives. worked against him In his
canvass. We congratulate John on this
just recognition of his worth to Perry town.

On Every Tongue.

Seventy seven is on every tongue. Either

vented more suffering and sickness, afforded

which Is said by the doctors to be the great
est Grippe producer. Experience shows that
all persons are not equally susceptible to
medicine. Many are benefited from first
dose of 'T7" and Grippe passes off with
little or no Inconvenience. Other cases might
be termed stubborn and do not yield until
prehaps the second or third day. The cure
is then spontaneous, the cumulative effect of
the medicine is felt all at once, In either
case the cure Is perfect; you are sure not to
be left suffering from after-effects, which
have been and arc the cnrse of Grippe.

The Easter Youths Companion.

Among the many attractive and hand
some Easter numbers so popular among
readers of magazines and papers, The
Youths Companion excels in appropriate
ness to the season and in the exceptional
quality of its reading matter.
''The story of a Statue" by the Marquis
of Lorne, prepared for the Companion In
collaboration with the Princess Louise, is
an article of rare interest "Dorothy's
Easter" and "a Corner in Eggs" are two
typical Easter stories well worth twice read
ing. "The Romance of Shoal," an ad-
venture story by w. Clark Russell, would
be hard to duplicate.
Each one of the entire collection of stories
deserves special mention, and with the mis-
cellany, poetry, ETC., collected in this one
issue is worth the paper for the entire year.

The Chicago Drainage Canal.

The report of the board Of engineers de-
tailed by the Secretary of War to report
upon the probable effect ana operation OF
the Chicsgo drainage canal upon the lake
aud hsrbor levels, and upon the naVags-
ton of the great lakes and theI cohEeeI-
ing WATERWAYS, has been made public.
There is nothing TO show, the report says
that the consent of Congress has been ASK
ed for this enterprise, and II IS certain thsI
il has not been treated a. al interstate OF
international affair. With this establish
ed fact il Is impossible TO think that Tie
supervision OF tie United States will not
extend to the canal in due time. Tnls
will become necessary ss soon as 1t De-
comes part OF the system Of naviga0le
waterways. If the new o1tlet reduces the
levels Of Lake Michigan and Huron about
6 inches, that effect will be produced IN
about two years, il not being question OF
many years, as some suppose. The board
feels very sure therefore, that; First. the
drainage canal is not solely State affair,
but National one Second. the tapping
of the lakes must effect their leyels. II
the level of the lakes should lie reduced,
vessels would have to load accordingly
The trustees of the drainage company now
contemplate the abstraction OF only SUI, :
600 cubic feet, but after the canal Is open
ed it is estimated that 600, 600 cubic feetptr
minute will be drawn from Lake Michigan.
This would lower the level of all the
lakes OF the system except Lake Superior,
and reduce the navigable capacities OF all
harbors and shadows throughout the sys-
TEN. Under the laws of the United States
th, Sc changes in capacity cannot be made
without federal authority, and to enable
the executive officers of the United States
to act adeisedly in the matter, 1t is nee
essary. ir the opinion Of The board, no.
only that measurements be taken, but
that the mOney cost OF restoring the ravl-
gable depth in channels and harbors be
carefully estimated. The navigable capac-
itv of all harbors and channels on the
great lakes below ST. Mary's Falls would
be iniuriOusly affected by the proposed
canal. and the navigability effected by the
inner harbol of Chicago would be made
difficult by the introduction OF a current
therein.

The Water Trees Of Australia.

Those who go out TO grspple with the
dangers, the hsrdships, and the mysteries
Of the Australian desert regions should,
above all things, instruct themselves IN
bush lore. 1t has happened more than
once that in these dread torrid wastes the
body has been found, lying beneath tree,
of some poor wanderer who had died from
the lack of water, even while there was
within few inches of him plentiful sup
ply.
In all the unwatered regions OF Austria
liza are TO be found water frees," trees
which actually provide supply OF Watei
to those who know where and how to look
for If. The most reliable of the water
trees are the water msllerS, .or group OF
trees, including the Eucalyptus microtheca,
which form part OF the terrible mailer
scrub. Outside of these, the curraJong,
the desert oak, the bloodwood, and several
varieties of the acacia are water-bearlng
trees.
shall not soon forget my first introduc-
tion to water tree. l was IN the norm

ed for several hours owing to an accident,
we had still fifteen miles to traveller. The
water bag had been drained hours before
aud in that dreadful desert our sutferings
mad already become intolerable. Sudden
~ my friend plunged his spurs into his
weary horse and dashed at full gallop to-
ward a tree some ifty yards off, shouting
TO me to follow. Flinging himself from
his saddle, he clawed with his fingers the
sand at the base of the tree, and presently
laid bare one of its spreading roots. Ihls
was torn from the earth to the lengtn Oh
