An unusual sight was witnessed at
n funeral at Horsell, England, the body
being drawn to the churchyard IN a
four-wheeled farm wagon painted red
and blue, and attached to which were
a couple OF farm horses. The funeral
was that OF Richard Brettell, solicitor.
OF Chertsey, and Il was his last request
that he should be conveyed In this
manner TO his grave. The journey from
Chertsey to Horsell occupied two and
a half hours. and six farm laborers
walked by the wagon the whole dis
lance, in addition TO which they bore
the coffin from the vehicle into the

One OF the odd things the visitor
to Burmah will notice Is the large
number OF bells about the pagodas.
These bells are usually hung on sacred
posts a few feet above the ground.
They are sweet-toned, as all Bur-

who comes to pray before the pagodA
strikes one Of these bells with a

GOOD CROP REPORTS
The Condition or Cotton and
Corn Excellent.
Tobacco Doing Fine. Reports of Drought in
Texas and Lice in Several Cotton
States.

The North Carolina Section, Climate
ard Crop Service of the Weather Blu
reau, issues the following weekly crop
bulletin for the week ending Monday,
June 90. 1902:
Conditions during the past week have
been very encouraging to farmers, as the
weather was decidedly favorable for
the growth of crops and for farming OPP
erations of all kinds. AS anticipated the
beneficial effects of the general rains at
the close of the last week appear in the
reports of crop correspondents for the
week ending June 23rd. Frequently To-
cal showers over the eastern portion of
the State this week have supplied the
deficiency in moisture which obtained in
several eastern counties, SO that now
there is no immediate necessity for more
rain except in scattered localities The
rainfall of the 18th and 10th was very
heavy over counties on the Upper Yad-
kin, where lands were badly washed ard
loWland crops injured over limited areas
The temperature was slightly above nor
NAL until Sunday, the 22nd, and was
highly favorable for the growth of crops
Farm work had been so we'll kept UP,
and crops were in condition to receive
so much benefit from the rainfall that
growth was very rapid during this week;
in regard to the staple crops cotton and
corn must now be considered in very
fine conditions, and tobacco has also
greatly improved.
"Cotton has grown rapidly, with
healthy color; plants are still small and
irregular in size in the north portion
squares are beginning to form in the
south portion, with few blooms as yet;
there are some complaints of damage
by lice from a few southern counties.
Corn has been immensely benefited by
abundant moisture, it's growth has been
rapid, and it's appearance is excellent:
plants are coming into silk and tassel in
many counties; laying by is proceeding
rapidly. Tobacco shows some improve
ment and has come out well in some
sections; transplanting was completed
during the week The weather was very
favorable for harvesting winter wheat
and oats, which is approaching compile
ton in the central-east portion of the
State, and is now underway west OF
the Blue Ridge; little wheat has been
threshed, and shows well-filled grains
Spring oats are low and poor. A large
crop of field peas has been planted in
stubble land, and seeds have sprouted
well. The irish potato crop is turning
out inferior, both in quality and yield.
Prospects for sweet potatoes are also
poor at present. Melons are doing well,
and also rice and peanuts. Huckleber-
ries and dewberries are abundant and of
good quality On account of so much
dropping during the season the condi-
ton of peaches, apples and pears is be-
low the average, but the yield will be
better than for several seasons in the
immediate past; peaches are ripening,
and some shipments have been made:
grapes are very promising"
