CONDITION OF THE CROPS
THROUGHOUT THE STATE

The Illinois crop bulletin for the
week ending April p follows:
Cool weather prevailed during the
early part of the week. and light To
moderately heavy frosts occurred.
Although damage from these froSts
* reported by few correspondents.
| il il believed that the damage was
generally slight. The weather grew
warmer the latter part of the week.
and at its end was almost summer
like. The week has generally been
dry. but light showers occurred over
the greater part of the state during
the latter part of the week. \ few
report heavy showers
i'm their localities. At no place.
however. has the rainfall been suffi-
cient for the needs of vegetation.
The cool. dry weather of the early
part of the week retarded the growth
of vegetation and. though conditions
improved later, growing crops have
made but little advancement during
the week. Heavy rains are needed gen
orally throughout the state. The soil
* in fine condition for tillage and
weather conditions have been favor
able for farm work, which has pro-
gressed rapidly. II il believed that
the average condition OF wheat has
not undergone much change during
the week, though the lack of mois-
ture and the cool weather have re-
tarded its growth. In some localities
the crop has improved. and in others
il has deteriorated. At many places
where il is now i'm good condition il is
L
eur soon. the crop will begin TO de-
teriorate. The above remarks re-
garding wheat will also apply TO rye.
The crop of oats has nearly all been
seeded and much of il now shows
above the ground. In some localities
this crop is doing very well, but gen
orally it's condition is not favorab BILE
on account of the cold, dry weather.
In some localities the seed failed to
terminate properly and many fields
have been reSown. Rain is badly
needed for this crop, though the light
rains the latter part of the week have
improved sOmewn.... Meadows and
pastures need rain badly. there hav-
ing been but little growth during the
past week on account of dry weather.
In "A lew lOCdillltN. hONCNCis hhS
drouthy condition seems not to have
affected them greatly and they are
making fair growth. In a few To-
calities cattle have been turned upon
pastures. but this is not general. As
a rule the condition of young clover is
poor. Gardening and potato plant
ing have been carried on during the
week. but gardens have not made
much growth. In a few localities in
the southern district early potatoes
have begun TO show the ground. a
great deal of work in preparing corn
ground has been done. and some corn
has already been planted in the CEN
trail and southern districts. The
prospect for peaches in the central
and northern parts of the state is
poor. but in the southern part the
outlook is fair. Other fruits appear
generally to be very promising.

CATCHING COD.

Once begun codfishing on the Banks is incessant, and when the fishing is
 good the men rarely ever sleep. Awak- ened at a. m. to fill their bait kids or tubs, they start at daybreak to lift these travis and remove the overnight catch, rebaiting the hooks again. There are about 5000 hooks to handle, and this often occupies until eventide, when the boats row back. After unloading the deck is piled high with the glitter ing mass of fish. To eviscerate this and stow it in the hold keeps them until midnight, when they snatch an hour or two of sleep.
 Some can go without sleep for week Others will rub wet tobacco in their eyes so that the pain may keep them wakeful few hours longer. Oth- CTS again will work till they drop from sheer exhaustion and sleep as they lie until aroused by comrades. A Chinese torture is to keep men without sleep, and thanking does this to an extent to satisfy even the most exacting Ce- lestial. The men sleep in their under clothing. When above decks. they can never leave off their oilskins, for on the Banks 1t is rarely fine. Mist and murk prevail, and the rigging and sails drip water alWays.--Ainslee's

scientific traveller overshot the mark
 when he estimated (his figures are re-
 produced by Dr. Fischeo the coal pro-
 vision of the eighteen provinces at six
 hundred and thirty million tons of an-
 thraoite and an equal quantity of bitu- .minous coal &
 , It is a curious commentary on that really civilized land which, as far as we know, is richer in coal than any other country in the world, that almost none of it is yet available for steam power. It is largely used by the Chinese but mainly in the regions where it is mined. The land routes are. ho miserably poor that it does not pay to haul coal more than twenty-five miles. Unless a mine is within this distance of water carriage

the area of the distribution of the out put is confined to the immediate neigh borhood. Steamships at Shanghai are to-day filling their bunkers with coal
 brought from Europe, because it is
 cheaper than coal expensively brought
 from Chinese mines in the interior
 The United States now far surpa all other nations in the employment of
 machinery in coal mining. The cheaper and more rapid methods of machine mining have undoubtedly been factor in the influences that have made us the first among the coal-producing states. The quantity of our machine mined coal increased from 6,2O0,00O tons in 1891 to 43, 963 900 tons in 1899. Dr. Fischer advises the Germans to give more at- tention to the mining of coal by ma chinery.
 In his opinion, Germany has coal supply that will meet the needs of the country for about q thousand years to come. Dr. Fischer also reaches the conclusion, based upon the latest and most accurate information, that prob ably within the next fifty years, and certainly within this century, Great Britain will exhaust her coal resources, at the present rate of consumption; that is to say, she cannot go on supply ing the larger part of the worlds ex- port coal without reaching the end of her tether, as far as homacoal is con- cerned long before her industrial com- petttors have exhausted their home supplies pr. Fischer entertains the gloomy view, cherished by so many Germans, that when England becomes a coal importing nation she will lose much of her importance as an industri- al state and will cease to be the leading world nowe".
