Conditions of tle Crop.

The weekly crop bulletin of the Agri-
cultural Department is as follows:
The abnormally high temperatures
throughout the week have been favorable
for maturing crops, more particularly over
the central and northern portion of the
country from the Mississippi Valley east
ward, while in Kansas, Nebraska, South
Dakota and portions of Missouri hot winds
have proved injurious. In the Central
and Western Gulf States the week has
also been generally favorable, but in the
South Atlantic and portions of the East
Gulf States excessively heavy rains have
caused much damage. On the Pacific
coast the conditions have been favorable
Corn has made rapid progress toward
maturity under the abnormally high tenn
perature conditions, a large part of the
crop i'll states there usually exposed to
danger from frosts being now safe. and
the remainder will mature earlier than
usual. Late corn has been seriously in
iured by hot winds in South Dakota, Ne
braska, Kansas and Missouri, while heavy
rains have caused rotting and sprouting
in the South Atlantic and East Gulf
States.
Most of the early tobacco has been cut
and housed under favorable conditions,
and the late crop is generally promising
The soil conditions over the central and
northern districts of the country east of
the Mississippi River have continued IA
vorable for blowing, but in Missouri, Kan
sas and Nebraska it has been too dry for
this work.

Prof. Warle, of the Bureau of Vegetable
Pathology, United States Department of
Agriculture, read a paper on fungicides,
illustrated with stereoptican views. The
Bordeau mixture, solution of copper and
lime, for s2rinkling of trees, etc, was fully
explained, and the speaker advocated
special care in the use of this solution on
peach trees, as the foliage of the latter is
likely to be killed. Spraying this solution
on potato vines had beneficial effect, and
a slight increase in yield was noticeable,
even when no fungus was present.
Prof W. G. johnson, state entomologist,
showed results of recent investigations in
Col Powell's orchard, where the success
full use of hydrocyme acid gas was demon
strated in Graduating the San Jose sale
