Bourbon Crop Conditions.

During the pas. week Bourbon
county has been visited by heavy rain
falls and the effect has been such as to
retard the cultivation of crops and the
threshing of wheat, which mad been
commenced, but pasture condition have
been greatly benefited.
The yield of wheat from the fields
which have been cut, is poor. but the
quality is exceedingly good. Many
fields have not been entered AMI il is
feared the heavy rains may rust the
standing grain or cause that which has
been QUITO sprout in the shock. The
estimate average yield is only about
10 l-2 bushels to the acre.
Although the season was late there
is a prospect for good crop of corn.
This crop has advanced splendidly and
many fields are ready for the last
plowing. The outlook for the tobacco
crop is most promising. Unless all
indications fail the yield of Bourbon
will be larger than last year.
Delay in transplanting from the bed
to the field by weather conditions
seems tc have been more benecfiial
rather than otherwise, as feared. be-
cause the plants were healthier and
more able to stand the unfavorable
conditions which prevailed here for a
time. Any serious damage to the rap
idly growing crop will have to come in
the future to prevent Bourbon county
from producing her share of the So
000. 600 pounds, which Kentucky pro-
duces annually.

Providing Fresh Air.

Birds are SO constituted by nature
that they require an abundance of
fresh air for health and vigor. They
never do well with limited supply
of air. For this reason all coops and
boxes in which poultry of any kind
is kept in the summer. should be as
open as possible.
Let the roof be tight to protect from
rain, but let at least one side be open
for the admission of fresh air at all
times. The open side may be protected
by wire cloth or other material that
will let in the air, but keep out rats,
etc.
