This record is believed to be as good
as can be shown in any part of Virginia.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
Condition of Corn, Cotton, Spring
Wheat, and Tobacco.

WASHINGTON, August 10.-The weekly
crop bulletin OF the Weather Bureau
issued to-day says: In the States OF the
central valleys and in the Atlantic coast
and Eastern Gulf districts the week has
been generally favorable for crops Por-
tons OF Missouri, western tennessee
Mississippi. and Kentucky have, however,
suffered from drought, ana excessive hedL
during the first week proved injurious
over portions OF the Gulf States. In the
Western Gulf states the week has been
very uufaVOTable, being excessively warm
and dry. on tho Pacific coast the con
ditlons have been very favorable, al
though extremely warm in Washington
and oregon. .,,.
corn has continued to make favorable
progreSs in the principal corn states!
and while recent rains nave proved
beneficial in Kansas, the reports hluICdlo
that the crop has been permanently IN
fured in portions Of these states. IL Is
estimated that tho bulk Of the corn crop
will be safe from injury by frost by sep
TENDER 18th, and that the late planted
will be safe by october LIST.
Except over portions OF North Carollna'
Florida. Tennessee, Arkansas. Missouri
and Oklahoma, where the crop has MADE
fair progress, the past week has not Deeh
favorable 10 cotton. Worms and rust are
reported from some sections, IN LeN GAS
Louisiana. and Arkansas cotton on up
lands is suffering seriously from drought.
Picking is becoming general over the
southern and central portions OF the
cotton region. and first bales were mar
keted during the week In Alabama, MIS-
sissippi. Arkansas, and Florida.
Spring wheat in the Dakotas and MIN
nesota is we'll advanced, but has been de-
layed by the rains 10 some extent IN
South Dakota. where part OF the crop
which was Overripe, has sustained IN
iuries. Favorable reports continue from
oregon and Washington. although recent
hot winds have caused some injury IN the
last-named State.
Tobacco is generally doing well, ex-
cept in New England, where there has
been too much rain.

We do not believe that the time mas

be fitting for the organizations when
have been formed TO perpetuate the
memories Of northern and southern SOL
diers, respectively to mingle their ceie-
brations. 1t is from the standpoint OF
the highest and truest sentiment, an I'M
possible proposition. This does not i'm
ply that there is not to be complete ira
ternity among the people OF the two sec
lions, or any difference In loyalty TO the
flag Of our common country but the
purposes of the Grand Army of the Re-
public and the United Confederate Nete-
rams are OF a distinctly sentimental chaT-
acter and consequently there cannot be
and ought not 10 be any "twining OF
the blue and gray" Each has its sacred
shrines, which should not be approached
save by those who can do so in reye-
rent spirit, and there should be no in
sincere assumption of love for the dead.
There should be no mercenary mocsery
or false mummery. No one objects TO
khe commingling Of monuments upon
Missionary Ridge. That is right enough.
But the survivors of those who followed
Lee and those who followed Grant should
not seek TO arrange for joint observance
OF anniversaries or for mutual partici-
patton IN ceremonies that have in view
solely loves offerings.

The Emitted States Government Is now

The Emitted States Government is now
the owner of more than thousand rein
deer in Alaska. They are kept at Fort
Clarence In the region of the lower
Yukon. Four or five years ago. when
Congress was led to make an appro-
priation for the trial of the experiment
Of introducing the reindeer into Alaska
for the promotion Of trade and travel.
small herds Of them were purchased in
Siberia and brought to Fort Clarence.
In about two years 800 of them were
procured for the experiment, and since
then the number of them has doubled
by natural increase. SO far they have
not been put to service; but it is the
design Of the Post-Ofiice Department TO
use them for the transportation OF the
mails along the route Of the Yukon
Valley.
