August 10th 1915.

Eion of favorable weather for the
development of the crops with
the exception of scattered points
throughout the State.
The final estimate of the wheat
yield in the State for 1915 is
10.7 bushels per acre. This is
short of last years yield by ap-
proximately two bushels The
continued rains of the last month
damaged the quality of the wheat
great deal, and the average es-
timated damage throughout the
State is Sc. per bushel. The
average price on the farm is ap-
proximately 95c. per bushel. This
is about 25c per bushel higher
than the farmers obtained who
sold their wheat from the thresh-
ers in 1914.
The acreage of Burley tobacco
is given at 70 per cent. and that
of Dark tobacco at 80 per cent.
Burley shows a condition of rs
per cent. and Dark tobacco a
condition of " per cent.
The corn crop shows condi-
ton of "a per cent. Much of the
corn got too high for cultivation
before the rains ceased, and corn
Eiels are full of crab grass and
weeds. The continued season
able weather will result in a
reasonably large crop of corn,
out a drouth would be serious as
the weeds and grass would soon
exhaust the moisture and the
roam would be unable to mature
properly.
The final yield of rye is esti-
mated at 9 bushels, that of oats
at % bushels. The condition of
hemp is 81 per cent. The potato
crop is unusually large and the
yield and quality of the potatoes
excellent; the prices are very low.
Garden conditions continue good
at 95 per cent. The condition of
cow peas is put at sc per cent.
and soy beans at 81 per cent. All
pasture grasses are in splendid
condition. Blue grass stands at
90 per cent, clover 81 per cent,
alfalfa 90 per cent, and orchard
grass at 80 per cent.
Fruits have suffered more or
less as a result of the rains,
storms, &c. The condition of

&c., The Duke kept up the struggle for
s8S his German estates with much in
genuity and persistence A great
deal of complicated litigation oc-
Cured. He succeeded in having his
German relation, Count Won HatZfeldt re-
moved administrator of the estates on the
ground that he was hostile to him. The Duke
wished to take charge of them himself, but the
Kaiser, to whom every measure had to be sub
mltted barred the Partisan dandy on account
of his stormy past.
Finally the Duke hit on the very ingenious
plan OF turning mis- German titles and estates
over to his son. So this little boy with an
American mother and French father became
quite unknown to himself, German subject and
a German nobleman, with all the privileges that
that implies He is described in the Almanach
de Gotha as His Serene Hghness the Duke of
Sagan, Prince OF Courland, Semgallen and
Sagan, etc" Presumably when he grows little
older he will become Prussan officer and wear
spiked helmet. unless the angry Germans shall
nave taken his property away.
The little Duke formerly registered at the
RUSSIAN court, and Count Won kanitz one of
the Naiser's chamberlains appointed his
guardian in Germany. y certain sum is set aside
tor the creditors yearly, and the estates are
steadily increasing in value, they can bear this
1t Is said that when the Duke comes of aye he
will be very rich.
Sagan is possession that came to the Dresont
family through the prudent arrangements OF tho
famous Talleyrand, perhaps the most adrot and
versatile diplomat in all history. The Emperor
Ferdinand ii. of Austria gave Sagan 10 his great
general, Wailensten, Duke of Fretlland who led
his army during the Thirty Years War This
was in 1887. and Wallenstcin proceeded to erect
the present palace. The space that suited him
was part of the city of Sagan, but this did not
hinder the terrible warrior He simply gave
orders that the inhabitants Of the houses he de.
cided to remove must leave within twenty-four
hours, and at the expiration of that time the
torch was applied and 400 houses were burned
10 the ground. Upon the ruins Wallcnstein built
the castle, which stands to-day, surrounded by
one OF the finest parks in all Germany.
Sagan in 1887 came into the hands of Prince
Peter OF kurand. or Courland, son of Ernst
Johann, Prince of Biron, Duke OF Kurland the
notorious favorite OF the Russian Empress Anna
feter died in 1900 and left Sagan to his daugh-
ter, Princess Katherine Of Biron Sagan at whose
death, in 1S45 her sister, Dorothea Duchess of
Talleyrand-Persord, inherited the estates She
was very remarkable woman, who had mar.
red the nephew and heir of the great diplomat :
Talleyrand. The Duchess Dorothea held court AT
Sagan for many years, and even when old and
infrm, gave several receptions every Winter to
which the officers of the small garrison the
landed propretors Of the neighbOrhood and the
town officials were invited with their wives and
daughters.
