Weekly Crop Report.

The past week has been as a whole
the warmest week of the season, the
average temperature for the state
ranging from 80 degrees over the
southern counties to "a degrees along
Lake Superior. The daily maximum
temperatures were generally 90 de-
grees or above until Saturday and
Sunday, when cool wave overspread
the state. The week closed cool and
fair.
The droughty condition prevailing
over the southern and eastern coun-
ties has been intensified by the intense
heat and lack of rainfall during the
| week. For the remainder of the state
the rains have been sufficient, except
in a few localities.
Corn has matured very rapidly ca
ing the week and early paintings are
ready for cutting. The excessive
heat has shortened the crop consider
ably in those sections of the state
where the rainfall has been deficient,
but for the major portion of the state
the crop is in very satisfactory con-
dition. Late paintings will mature
IN about two weeks.
The extremely high temperature
during the week has been detrimental
to the potato crop by increasing the
tendency to blight, and causing the
vines of the late paintings to dry up
before the tubers were fully matured.
Where there was sufficiency of mois-
ture the effect of the hot weather has
| been less noticeable.
The harvesting of the tobacco crop
is nearing completion. The crop has
ripened unusually fast during the past
two weeks and growers are securing
it as rapidly as possible. There has
been comparatively little damage dur
ing the season by hail. The crop is
large and of exceptionally good quail
ty.
The weather has been very favor
able for maturing the cranberry crop
and high grade of fruit is promised.

The Theatre from the Inside.

That there are FIVE thousand thea
tres in America and that one million
and half people attend them each
week day night, spen"ing seventy mil
lions of dollars Il year on theatre
going, are the surprising facts with
which FRANKLIN Fyles, the IRA
matte editor OF The New York Sun,
will open an important series IN the
next issue of The Ladies' Home Jour
nal. The series will be called "The
Theatre and It's People" and will
run through seven numbers of the
magazine, iavishly Illustrated with
pictures made by twelve different
artists. The articles will treat of
every phase Of the theatre, The play
and the actor, from the in ide, and
will tell how a theatre is managed;
the actual money which plays have
made; how an actor is trained and
what the actors are actually paid;
how play is written and what the
authors receive; how a play is re-
bearsed; the first night of a play;
how the actresses "make up" and
what they use; and in Il minute way
the two last articles will show what
goes on behind the scenes on the stage
during performance It's curious
tact that this will he the first time
that the theatre and the act ors have
ever been extensively treated in
magazine, and that there is no book
on the subject in existence.

The Care of Roses.

June roses require pruning but once
year. This should be done in spring,
as soon ais one is able to see where the
strongest and hea1thiest shoots are 60
ing to be. The old wood should be cut
back nearly half, and all weak, un-
healthy branches should be removed.
If the branches are thick, they should
be thinned out we'll. Air should have
free circulation through the plant.
Hybrid perpetlals require a differ
ent treatment. AS their flowers are
produced on new growth only, they
should be grown on system which
insures the constant production of
such growth. This is done by making
and keeping the soil very rich and by
cutting the plants back sharply after
each period of Towering. The term
perpetual is a misleading one, because
it carries with it the idea that the
roses in this class are, under all con-
ditions, ever-bloomers. But such is not
the case. They bear a profuse crop of
flowers in June and July. After that,
by pursuing the treatment advised
above, they bloom at intervals during
the season, but never in such prOfu-
sion as in early summer Without the
treatment advised they will not do
this. Many varieties are shy bloOmers,
and will only give an occasional flower
after July. The freest boomers are
not prolific enough to suit the lover of
fine roses, but their flowers, though
few in number compared with those Of
the first crop, are so large, so fine in
FORM so rich in color, and SO fragrant
as a general thing, that we cannot af-
ford to overlook this class in making
our collections of roses. Tt requires
more attention than any other, but
the results are we'll worth all the care
we eXpend on it.
Of the June roses the best for gem
eral use are the mosses, in red, pink
and white; the Provence and the good
old Damask, both delightfully."- sweet,
large, double and of fine shape, and
produced with wonderful freedom; the
yellow Persian which we'll merits the
name "Cloth of Gold" so rich is the
color; and the small low-growing
Scotch and Austrian varieties. There
are others in this general class which
deserve place in any collection, but I
have named those with which the am
ateur gardener will be most likely to
succeed. When he or she learns to
grow these WE'LL other sorts can be
added with a reasonable chance of sue
cess.-Harper's Bazaar.
