CROP REPORT.
Corn Planting in Progress in Kansas
and Other States-T.Ie Winter
Wheat Crop.

Washington, April 15.-The wealth
er bureau Tuesday issued the follow
ing weekly summary of crop condi-
tons: Corn planting is in progress
as far north as Kansas. southern Mis-
souri,, Tennessee and North Carolina ::
farther south planting is we'll adj
vanced and is completed in some sec
tons.
The condition of winter wheat is
generally excellent, and it has made
splendid progress since the first of
the month; in the upper Ohio val
ley, however, the freeze of the 4th
and 5th caused some injury. On the
whole the condition of the crop in
the winter wheat belt east of the
Rocky mountains is more promising
than for years. In California the
outlook is also promising, but in
Oregon and Washington the condi-
ton of the crop is less favorable, es-
pecially in the last named state,
where about one-third of the acre
age will be resown.
Spring wheat seeding is nearly
completed III Iowa and Nebraska,
and is progressing well in South Da-
kota; none has yet been sown in
North Dakota and in northern Min
nesOta, but in southern Minnesota
some has been sewn on rolling lands
Oats continue promising in the
southern states and seeding is nearly
completed or we'll advanced in the
central valleys, where the early sown
is coming up well.

ON COUNTY GOVERNMENT

and his Office would be ample for the
business and care of books and papers.
ASSESSORS AND COLLECTORS OF
TAXES.
Chapters % and % of the bill relates
TO the duties of assessors and tax col
Ieetors, but does not say who shall per-
form the service. The intimation is that
there must he a separate officer elected
for each office. and chapter IS, section
81, requires a separate bond from each,
and each would require salary and an
office. This we think extravagant, and
under the circumstances unnecessary.
as per bill the assessing is largely done
by the County Board Of Supervisors,
which we approve, and suggest that
the whole assessing business should be
done by the supervisors and their dep
uties. These deputies must get theiS
Instructions and suitable assessment
schedules. properly ruled out and head
ed for the return of all property subject
to taxation for the ensuing year. from
the Board of County Supervisors, and
make all their returns direct TO the
Board of Supervisors, who have charge
and supervision of all county business"
as per bill, which we approve. The 1e-
ports and returns of the boards depu-
ties must be audited by the Supervisors
and the County Clerk, and approve the
same if correct. The County Treasurer
must be the tax collector. either in, per-
son or by deputies. and report their
work to the Board of Supervisors,
whose duty, in connection with the
County Clerk, is to audit and approve
the same if correct; if not correct, have
it made so. Thus all the county bus
mess could be correctly and economic
ally done without the costly officers
named in chapters A6, IS, %. and %.
Board of County Supervisors would be
the County Auditor, being assisted as
it would be by the County Clerk, the
County Attorney and Grand jury. The
County Clerk would be also County
Recorder The County Supervisors and
their deputies would be the County AS
SCISSORS. The County Treasurer and his
deputies would be the tax collectors,
and the County Clerk would be also
license collector; none would be over
worked. 1t seems wise economy that
officials should have something to do
to earn their salaries in a small terri
tory like this JOHN NJ. HORNER.

be almost impossible to avoid the in
PRODUCTION of disease germs with such
cane.
OF all the diseases with which they
are afflicted in Java, 1 was told that
the one which most seriously threaten
ed the whole sugar industry, is a dis
ease called ''sereh.' Sereh is Malay
an word which 1 have not been able to
find q definition of iR any botanical
encyclopaedia. 1t appears TO be a pecu-
liar diseased condition of the soil which
prevents the growth of a sugar cane
stalk on the root. The plant looks
healthy but produces a rank grass-like
growth, devoid of any stalk. am in
formed that so far it has been impos-
sible to discover the origin or nature
of this peculiar disease. but the effect
of it is that no rattoon can be grown
on any root, only plant cane, and even
then in some cases this first crop has
been destroyed partially by sereh.
The laws now governing the planting
Of cane in Java are very strict. No
planter must use cane tops or any part
of cane of his own cultivation for plant
seeds, but seed cane is grown in large
plant fields in certain districts, which
have marked with blue pencil on the
inclosed map. The elevation of these
fields is not less than 1900 feet, at which
altitude the sereh has not yet been
found. The government has also pro-
hibited the use of land for cane Gull
tivation for more than one year, when
there must be an interval of two years
before the same land goes back to cane,
and after this first crop is taken off,
every root and vestige of plant must
be removed from the soil before it is
turned over to rice or other crops.
These conditions are very serious and
have at times menaced the entire cane
cultivation, besides putting the plant
ers to enormous extra expenditure, es-
pecially in procuring seed cane from
the far distant plant fields.
1 inclose herewith a translation from |
the Dutch of the precautionary laws
issued by the Governor-G General of Java |
during last year with a view to pre- 7
venting the spread OF this disease, !
which may be of interest to you.
Referring again TO the inclosed map,
the red lines indicate the steam tram
ways connecting the various planta-
tons. and it win be noticed that there
are no Plantations on the western part
Of the island, where the seed fields are
located. the great sugar center being
the northern coast of middle Java and
the eastern end, and I believe that
ately similar seed plantations have
been established in the district I have

as there are some high elevations there
which the sereh has not reached, and
from where the planters at that end can
procure their seed cane.
For any further information you may
require on this subject, / shall refer
you to Mr. E. Hartmann of Waialua,
who I believe is in possession of the
Javan Planters Associations periodi-
Gals treating very deliberately with the
sereh question and other plant-desrroy-
ing parasites they have TO battle
against in Java.
Hoping the above information will
be of some use to you,
remain, yours very truly.
