Agricultural Report.

Inc following report represents
he av, rage condition of the crops
md live stock named, as estimated
from the returns received from the
regular township crop correspond
ents of the Department.
Wheat-Prospect compared with
An average, 73 per cent.
Winter Barley-Prospect com
pared with an average, 70 per cent.
Spring Barley-Prospect COM
pared with an average, so per cent.
Rye-Prospect compared with
IN average, 70 per cent.
Oats-Prospect compared with
an average, 81 per cent.
Clover-Prospect compared with
IN average, 76 per cent.
Timothy - Prospect compared
with an average, SO per cent,
Timothy - Damaged by grub

Hogs-To be fed for summer

an average, 9l per cent.
Spring Pigs - Number saved
compared with an average, S8 per
cent.
Sheep - Condition compared
with an average.
Lambs-Number saved compared
with an average, 81 per cent.
During the past month wheat
has shown much improvement, and
the present prospect is estimated
at 73 per cent. compared with an
average. Wheat was seeded un.
der most unfavorable conditions,
md the earlier reports were dis
couraging. Since the opening of
spring, however, Its condition has
gradually improved, each months 8
estimate showing slight upward
tendency. On April lst. it's con-
di;ion was estimated at 62 per
cent; May 1st. G6 per cent. );
while, as above stated, the present
prospect Is estimated at about
three -fourths of an average yield
per acre. In estimating the prob
ably total yield for the state, due
consideration must be given to the
short acreage seeded. November
ast it was estimated that the area
seeded was approximately 40, 900
acres short of the area seeded for
the harvest of 1908 and this area
has been further reduced by the
acreage plowed up this spring
Last year the estimated area har-
vested was 1856. $50 acres and
from this was produced 80 l22 9l9
bushels, or an average yield per
acre nf Is Q bushels. On Juue lst,
1908, the wheat prospect was
estimated at 81 per cent compared
with an average. From these
figures it is readily apparent that
the coming harvest will be far
short of that Of one year ago.
Reports of damage by joint worm
are rare.
Winter barley shows prospect
of 20 Fer cent, while the prospect
of spring barley is estimated at 50
per cent, compared with an aver
age.
Oats generally are in excellent
condition and the present prospect
is estimated at 81 per cent, com
pared with an average. A large
acreage has been seeded and the
harvest should produce fine yield
Rainfalls have been frequent the
past month, seriously retarding
corn planting, No doubt heavy
acreage will be planted. While
we quote no figures on corn condi'
tion, correspondents generally note
the backward tendency of it's
growth, due to cool wet weather.
Hog cholera Is reported in some
sections, but no epidemic of the
plague is prevalent at this time,

To Sell Plant at Auction.

Rock Hill, Aug. 29.-The local
water, light and power plant of this
city, which has been in the hands Of
a receiver for the past II months,
will, on next Tuesday, August 81, at
IL o'clock, be sold at public outcry.
The sale will be made here by P.
A. Wilcox Of Florence, receiver. The
sale was ordered by Judge Pritch-
ard of the United States court of ap-
peals, while the court was in session
at Charleston. There is an upset
price of SIS, 900, and it is pretty Ger
tain that the bondholders will buy
it.
The plant is known as the Rock
Hill Water, Light and Power COM
pany, but is owned by capitalists in
Philadelphia. 1t has given the people
considerable trouble in the past two
years or more on account of an in
adequate supply of water for all pur-
poses.

Moving Machine Mains Boy.

Union, Aug. 27.-A distressing ac-
cident occurred near West Springs
Wednesday, according to reports
reaching here, when Johnnie Lucas,
a boy about Is years Of age, got en-
tangled in a moving machine and
had one of his legs cut of.
1t seems that some grass was being
moved and that the moving blade
was frequently getting hung. The
boy loosened it up several times, and
had been told, it is stated, to be care
full not to get in front of the blade,
in some way he failed to observe
carefully when a turn was being
made and the blade struck him and
before the mules could be stopped
the limb was almost completely sew
cred about the ankle. Drs. A. Cliff
ton Smith and Lancaster, of Glenn
Springs, were promptly summoned
and amputated the limb.
The boy is the son Of Herbert Lu-
cas-, a blacksmith, who had his shop
literally torn to pices by cyclone
several years ago, on which occasion
the same boy had a most miraculous
escape from death.

Making Pea-vine Hay.

Let the peas grow till the pods
turn yellow, and then there is no hay
more easy to cure well than COW
peas, notwithstanding all the talk
about the difficulty in curing them.
They will cure il you just let them,
and do not 60 to monkeying with
all sorts of contrivances to spoil
them.
I had a letter today from a farmer
who said that he would not have
barn room for his pea crop and want
ed to know if they would keep we'll
stacked. He really answered his own
question, as he said that neighbor
had stacked some when we'll milted
and limp, and they heated and team
ed. But to his surprise, he found
that they cured perfectly. If he had
opened the stacks and tried to cool
them off, he would, doubtless, have
had moldy hay.
Now the peas in the morning, and
if possible, put tender be-
hind the mower to keep them
tossed up and hasten the wilt
ing. Rake the morning moving into
windrows that afternoon. Turn them
the next morning and let lie till af-
ternoon while cutting more. Cock
them that afternoon, and when the
hay in the cocks can be taken and
twisted hard, and no sap runs to the
twist, haul them in. If to go into
stacks, make the stacks well, and
rake down the sides, but cover the
tops of the stacks with straw or dry
hay. This hay will cure, even if the
stacks heat. Put some rails under
the stacks to keep the hay off the
ground and prevent it's absorbing
moisture from the ground, and you
have as good hay as in the barn

Two Shots Made One Wound.

Rock Hill, Aug. PA negro
named Collins Judge, was shot and
killed by another negro. named Cal
Barber, at Zion, a negro church near
Landsford, in Chester county,
Wednesday night. 1t is reported
that there had been a grudge be-
tween the two for a year or more,
with threats to kill each other, so
Wednesday night Barber walked up
and stuck his pistol to the back of
Judges head, firing three shots, two
of which took effect and are said to
have entered the same hole, as there
was only one hole in the head. The
physicians took two bullets out of
the front. Judge is said to have died
almost instantly and Barber made
his escape.
