The Crop Reports.

A weekly crop review of the weather
bureau issued Tuesday says:
The week has been generally favorable
in the south Atlantic and east gulf states
and in the states of the Ohio and upper
Mississippi valleys and upper lake region,
but in New England and over the greater
part of the middle Atlantic states, includ-
ing western New York and portions or
the upper Ohio valley, it has been too
wet, while the states of the lower Mis-
souri, valley have suffered seriously from
hot and drying winds and drought pre-
walls over the greaser part of Texas and
in portions of Arkansas, Tennessee and
Louisiana. The condition on the Pacific
coast have continued favorable. Much
injury has been caused by heavy rains to
the hay crop and to maturing and shocked
grain in New England and portions of
the middle Atlantic states.
In the states of the central valleys corn
| has generally made favorable progress
during the week, eXcep tower portions of
Nebraska, Kansas and western Missouri,
| where it has been seriously injured by
hot winds and the general absence of
rain. The crop is also suffering from
! drought in Texas and portions Arkansas
| and Louisiana, while in New En- gland and
the northern portions of the middle.
| Atlantic states it has been unfav orably
affected by excessive moisture and in
| sufficient sunshine. In the states of the
Ohio and upper Mississippi valley and
lake region the reports indicate that corn
has made rapid growth during the week,
and very favorable reports, especially with
reference to late corn, are received from
the south Atlantic and east gulf states,
with the exception of Florida.
Reports concerning spring wheat are
| generally favorable, excepting the late
crop in North Dakota, which is very
poor, and some will not lie cut; harvest
ing is well under way over the southern
portion of the spring wheat region, and
has begun in portions of the northern
section. The outlook in Washington and
Oregon continues excellent.
The outlook for tobacco III Tennessee
continues poor, but the crop in Kentucky
is considerably improved Elsewhere the
general outlook is favorable although
some injury has resulted from excessive
rains in Maryland and southern New
England. Cutting is practically com.
pletcd III South Carolina. and is we'll al.
vanccd in North Carolina.
Considerable blowing for fall sending
has been done in Illinois. Ohio, Tennessee
and Virginia.

CLEANING WINDOWS.

Every practical housekeeper seems
to have different method of cleaning
windows, which she considers superior
to any plan adhered to by neighbors
and friends. But after single trial
of this method, it is doubtful if one
will care to make change, no matter
how satisfactory were the operations
applied in the past.
Have ready n muslin bag full of
whiting, and two wash feathers. Dust
the glass thickly with the whiting,
then rubit off thoroughly,with damp,
not wet, leather or chamois, and
finally polish it we'll with q clean dry
one. This is the method pursued by
workmen when cleaning the windows
of new house, and gives polish un.
known to the glass washed in the or.
dinary way.
Another excellent method of giving
brilliancy to glass, is to dampen rag
slightly with spirits of wine, rub the
glass well with this, and then polish as
before with a clean, dry leather.
Newspapers are admirable as polishers
for window panes when the.leather OF
chamois Is not convenient, or for any
other glass, save that used for food or
beverages. The newspaper should be
crushed and softened in the hands
before using, aud the printers ink is
said to aid in giving the brilliant
polish so quickly obtained.
1t is important that no soap should
be used on the windows if they are to
be kept bright and shining. If they
have become dull or greasy looking,
because of improper cleaning in the
past, and the powdered whiting does
not seem to give the desired effect at
first. simply wash them with little
warm water and diluted ammonia, and
then polish latter thorough rlnsing)
with the chamois or crumpled news.
paper.
1t is also necessary to have the
frames and all the woodwork about
the windows perfectly clean before
beginning to clean the glass; and if
convenient choose a dull day for the
window cleaning, or at least time
when the sun is not shining on the
glass.

Don't throw away the yeast when il
begins to sour; instead add two tea,
spoonfuls of sugar to each cup of the
yeast, and let it stand awhile before
using.
Don't throw away soiled and mussed
ribbons unless they are much worn.
There are many preparations TO,
cleansing these fabrics that are moi
washable, or they may be dyed; and,
although they will not be like new,
they will prove satisfactory for many
purposes.
Don't throw away grease of any sort,
besides the drippings that can be used
for frying purposes; put the seeming
ly useless grease into pail, and when
nearly full add some water and n pound
of potash, and only little boiling
will bo required to make it into nice
soap.
Don't throw away Old rng carpe,
until it has been examined. 1t will
usually be found that the warp is worn
out, but that the rags are still good.
Il will be fun for the little ones tc
ravel the old carpet and wind the rage
into skeins. Then wash them, colol
them if necessary, and when they are
dry wind them and they will be ready
to serve in another kitchen carpet; foi
the rags will usually wear twice as

Don't throw away the salt bags afte,

and sew several together for dist

leave them as they are until they have
been used once for the small steamed
Indian puddings; and after serving Al

Cutton Production.

The Charleston News and Courier
has made calculation which shows
that the State of South Carolina raises
more cotton to the square mile than
any State in the country. The produc-
ton in that State is put at - bales to
the square mile; in Georgia the produc-
ton is Is bales; in Mississippi, q %
bales; in Alabama, II 3-5 bales; in
Louisiana, 10l2 bales, and in Texas,
I 1-6 bales. The table shows nothing
of considerable Importance, probably,
says the Savannah News, except that
South Carolina is devoting more atten-
ton to cotton than she ought to, and
that if Texas raised as much cotton to
the square mile as South Carolina does,
her crop would be nearly 100000

FARM AND GARDEN NOTES.


The sheep is an animal that must be
kindly treated.
All combs that are built by bees
naturally contain too much drone
comb.
Keep the brood in the centro of the
hive if possible, and the honey on tho
outside.
Foul brood is very contagious, and
will spread with great rapidity over
au apiary.
Never allow a swarm of bees to re-
main long after settling; hive them as
soon rs possible.
Nothing but the very best sheep
should be kept. The best arc profit
less enough now.
1t is strange that no moro interest
is paid to the breeding of fancy
pigeons. Perhaps because the craze
has not secured foothold. In many
places it is an extensive and profitable
business.
Curing honey simply means proper
evaporation OF the water it contains.
This is accomplished in the hive by
high degree of temperature, and can
be done outside by maintaining the
same conditions.
Hens are beginning to lay now, af-
Ter o resting spell. They should rush
the machinery while the sun shines.
Is your house tight and warm? not.
don't expect the hens to lay in cold
weather. Better look to it at once.
Colonies that lack stores for the
winter should be fed the required
quantity in tho fall, and September Is
the best time to do it. 1t should be
done while it is yet warm enough to
allow the bees to seal the stores over.
Every colony should have twenty
five or thirty pounds of good sealed
stores to bring them through to the
first of May, with good winter protec.
tion besides. 1t is far better to have
little too much stores than too little.
Dead branches should be cut from
trees as soon as noticed. If left on
more dead ones appear each year
until the tree is wholly dead. If they
are cut off rs soon rs discovered the
tree will keep its vigor, and fruit a
few years longer.
Young stock fed on au exclusive diet
will not develop fully, either in feath-
ers or bones II you want to feed but
one kind OF grain to young, or old
stock, let it be wheat, as that com.
blues all the necessary properties for
development, and for egg production.
Strong colonies of bees sometimes
become suddenly depleted in number,
with not enough left to keep up the
necessary warmth to hatch the eggs.
This is because no young bees have
been Matched, and the old ones, sup
erannuated, left the hive in search of
food and We're not able to return.
Cows average 1914 pounds Of butter
in year, and the average price is
sixteen cents n pound. Ten COWS
would produce $l9S. 40. One hundred
ewes can be kept on the same feed that
will keep ten COWS. The ewes will each
produce a lamb worth $3.50. They
will yiold each seven pounds of wool
ut fourteen cents pound. Seven hun
dred pounds OF wool is worth $9S,
making an income from the sheep of
$3IS.
