DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE.
Climate And Crop Bulletin 0fThe Weather
Bureau For The Week Ending
July goth, 1901.

The climate and crop service OF the
| Weather Bureau has issued its weekly
bulletin for the week ending July goth,
which says The temperatures for the
entire week averaged about 50 above
normal. The early part was quite hot,
but the night temperatures were low in
the western counties on Wednesday, and
by Friday a cool wave had reached the
extreme eastern part Of the section.
On Sunday. however, marked rise in
the temperature was experienced, and
warm weather again prevails generally.
The forepart of the week was dry, and
much was accomplished in forwarding
belated farm work. A period OF general
showers followed on Tuesday evening.
and since then there have been frequent
light rains and much cloudy weather.
Considerable damage was done by light
ming in parts of Baltimore. Carroll, Har-
ford and Anne Arundel counties. In
the districts where the tobacco crop re-
ceived damage from the heavy rains some
time since, IT has not yet entirely recov-
cred, but considerable improvement is
noted. Worms are reported plentiful in
Anne Arundel county.
The prevailing damp atmosphere has
caused some rot during the week in nearly
all fruit. Early apples are now ripe in
the extreme west. The apple crop will
be short in nearly all districts, the esti-
mates ranging from scarce to medium.
Peaches are reported variously from light
to plentiful. and the early varieties are
now being shipped in small lots. Pears
are in fair condition, plentiful in some
places. about half crop in others. Plums
continue to be reported plentiful in the
northern central counties. Potatoes are
a fine crop in nearly all districts, although
In some the promise of the vine outruns
the fulfillment OF the root. The early
potatoes have come into general use.
Gardens have grown we'll during the
week, and are making satisfactory yields.
Sweet potatoes are good crop IN Anne
Arundel. The early tomatoes are about
over in Somerset, where they have given
good returns. The vines of the tomatoes
generally look wetl, but they are not
well fruited in many localities, owing
probably to loss of blossoms by the rains.
Grapes continue to suffer loss by midew.
Melons are now growing rapidly in the
southern counties. but the crop is still
backward, and will be late in maturing.
Late cabbage is growing nicely. Field
peas are doing well. Some turnip seed
has been put in the ground in the south.
Berries are yielding fairly we'll. but are
not as plentiful as was expected earlier
in the season.

OF course the fact that they have become
wealthy by their own efforts IS greatly TO their
credit but it does not help them in spending
their money. Besides. there is great deal OF
rivalry among Them and much striving to out

But where on earth you going to put all

GENERAL ALGER's BILE.

From the Boston Herald
 bieutenant-General Miles will gain nothing by coming down to the muddy plain of personal strife and engaging in a scrap" with ex-Secretary Alger. Neither this generation nor any com Ing after is going to take stock in Algers enmities. The best way is to let him sizzle in his own fat When President Mckinley, at the insistent de- mand Of public sentiment, called for General Alger's resignation, that act end- ed him as considerable factor in na- uonal affairs It is not now worth wbila for anybody to engage in a controversy With him. He has liberty to print what ever he likes, and the public has liberty 10 retrain from reading it. Another gen. eratlon may possess few historians who VIII look at it, but they will not think any better of it if it provokes absolutely no response than if it seems to have been esteemed formidable by those wbon, IL abuses. It will be only a days wonder unless somebody gives it artificial vital lty by attacking it. General Miles can aHord to treat 1t with the same contemn- tuous silence General Grant found so useful in killing off calumnies.

BOOKER WASHINGTON,

From"the Chicago Record-Herald. Several eloquent speeches were deliv- cred at the Marquette Club banquet, but the most impressive words that were ut tered came from colored orator and the most impressive feature of the meeting was his presence among the honored guests
 As Booker T. Washington made his ap- peal for the negro race, as he described Its progress, showing that it had in- creased from 4,O00,000 to more than 90OO,000 since the war, that it was taking hold upon business, that 1t was acquir- standard of living and constantly increas- ing in intelligence, he gave his most ef- fective lesson on its capacity for ad- vancement in his own person. Few of the white men who heard him were his equals in achievement; none of them had been so surely consecrated to great mis- sion. As they listened they must have been convinced that the accident of color had little or nothing to do with the most precious endowments of mind and char acter.
 1"i' WaSihiston IS, or course, the ex ception, not the common type, but the same may be said of the strong men of any race. Like him they represent the possibilities, and 1t is with the possibili ties that we must reckon in dealing with the negroes. Their history shows that they were not meant for eternal servi- tude. To quote from their champion, "A people that, whether in slavery or free dom, has proved it's ability to look the white man in the face, to live by his side. to grow strong in numbers and to get something from him at nearly every point of contract, is fit for American cit izenship." If there are those who are un fit among such a people, so there are among the whites. The speaker was bet ter equipped for American citizenship than thousands of whites and all his hearers knew 1t.
 But turning to his address again. we find that his admonitions to his own race are quite as noteworthy as his claims for 1t. He said:
 We must ever keep in mind that our fu ture recognition is largely within our own hands. In all history no race that has been able continually to contribute materially, mentally and spiritually to the welfare of the world has been perma- nently left without reward and recoe- hilton. With the negro 1t will be as with the white man. He will weaken himself and degrade his soul if he permits race hatred to control or guide him. Love for all men and hatred for none must he the handspring of our life.
 The blacks have their duties as well as the whites and only those who fulfil them can expect the sympathy and ap- proval of Booker Washington.
