[?rptMfc mbttt?Btt. A COMMON STORY. In the streets of a Christian city I saw a house lit up; Where they sit at nient in thc while gas light, And pass the poison cup. I saw men there throw freely down The coin that is children's blood. While tho women cry and the babies die At home for want of food. There the hand of the cunning workman Is palsied in his youth ; And the eye is blear'd and the heart is sear'd, Till it knows no love nor truth ; For they drink of the burning goblet . That makes of man a brute; Till the image within is changed by sin, And the voice cf God is mute. < j men of this dear, Christian land 1 fathers, with children and wives! What will ye say on the Judgment Day, When Christ shall ask of your Uvei " Ve had children, and homes, and money enough, And minds to learn and think The gifts God gave, with a soul to save And ve barter'd them all for drink ' THE- IffOPS OF THE COUNTRY. A Highly Favorable Kepori from the Department of Ag? ?cuttnre. WASHINGTON, August 10.-The .ugust crop returns of the Dep.irt ?ent or Agriculture, the work of Iabout six thousand correspondents give estimates covering the entire producing area of over one thousand five hundred principal agricultural ^counties of the United States upon the condition of most of the crops jow growing. The condition of cotton has im jved. During the past^inonth the ieral average has advanced from to 94. This is higher by three ^tkan in ^August, 1ST0, and ie August average iso 2 points lower in 1S75 and one LS but it is higher fears since 1S72. of each State [inia S-i, North ?olina '.'8, Geor gina 09, Mis J, Texas, 100, fe 80. Only r. and Louisi jVirginia has >ama 0, Mis insat; C, Ten cas the m dre in the entire, cotton 'Deit tnere is re ported an exces3 of moisture, injuri ous in proportion to the retentive ness of the soil. This cause accounts for the comparative low condition in North Carolina, where it is now deemed too late for recuperation. Rust begins to appear in districts where the rains have been in excess, but without damage as yet. Cater pillars have made their appearance in all the States of the Gulf coast, and though no injury has resulted many apprehensions of future loss are expressed. The boll worm is also mentioned in several States. A large number of returns are highly favorable, prophesying a crop as large aa the land can produce or better thfcn for many years. THK WHEAT RETUBNS of August relate to the spring varie ty. Its condition is higher than for Eeveral years. It wa? ?S in 1SS0 and 81 in 1879 and 1881. It is now 97 against 100 last month. It is some what late, but wa? nearly ready tor harvest at the ditto of the return?. There are some indications of rust and blight in parts of Minnesota. In Northern Iowa the crop is held to be the best since 1S70. Returns from Dakota and Nebraska are ex tremely favorable. The general averages of the principal States are as follows: "Wisconsin 99, Minnesota 98, Iowa 03, Dakota 09, Nebraska 103, Colorado 90. It is quite proba ble that the product of winter wheat and spring wheat without IOSB by sprouting will slightly exceed 500, 000,000 bushels, but extravagant, es timates which assume 15 to 20 per cent, more are wild assumptions, needlessly tending to reduce the price of wheat in the hands of farmers. Special Agent Moffatt of the de partment of agriculture cables from London to day that WHEAT IN ENGLAND promises an average crop of good quality; in France a medium crop slightly damaged by rain in the blooming period; in Germany recent ! heavy rains have deteriorated the quality of the fairly abundant pro duct; in Russia and Austria there is an average crop, and in Hungary 15 per cent, above an average. The European outlook is favorable for a medium product, with some reduc tion in quality. THE CONDITION OF Tilt: CORN CROP is represented by 83 as agai'nnt 77 last year. At this date in ISSI the effect of drought was seen in a reduc tion of 13 point-; in the general con dition during July, followed by a grgalor deterioration in August. Al the present time circumstances are favorable for further improvement in most of the States. The average? of the Southern States are nearly all above 100. The surplus producing States average as follows: Ohio 77, Michigan 78, Indiana 78, Illinois 59? iowa 70, Missouri 91, Kansas 100, Nebraska 78. New England ranges from 7? in ^Massachusetts to 90 in Connecticut, New York 85, Penna; vania 90, New Jersey 93. The general averages of the con? tien of other crope are as folio; Oats 102, spring rye 100, barley i buckwheat 97, potatoes 100, I buceo S 7. Farmers, Cultivate Cheek. Many of your correspondents a asking why farmers, although jusl admitted to be the prop of civiliz fiori, the bone and sinew of the n tion, the pillars and support of t government, are held down and n allowed to take proper rank as a ch in the shaping and control of pub! affairs; but are made subservient the fractional parts of the rest humanity. That farmers can legi late, and wisely, has been proved times which tried men's soule- ai what has-been done we may rea; on bly suppose can be done again. Son advise farmers to let politics severe alone, to remain ignorant and qui on the great questions of the da and to inscribe on their hay carl ''Stick io your business and let pol tics be." Now. while the farmei watchword should be, "Letall thin] be done decently and in due season, i and while we admit that it takes i much of hia time to perform his a ! lotted task, he should never, und any circumstances, degenerate fro his nobleness aa a man to the selfisi ness ol a miser, nor for the sake j gain, give np hie independence, coi nected, as it is, with free though i free expression and counting as s j intelligent integer in the land i which he lives, nor become "as lamb led to the slaughter." by tho: who cry oat, "Farmers, stick i your plow handles wlr'e we mal your laws." Did you ever noti< what an ample amount of "chees these writers show who give such ac vice ? As an individual, I must sa that I admire their cheek for quai tity aud not for quality. All ? burdens which we, as farmers, no bear, have been visited upon us, ni because we are not intelligent an far seeing, but because of our lack i that one principle so largely deve oped in doctor?, lawyers, politician railroad managers and corporatio managers and bummers, viz: Cheel "Stick to your plow handles, fain er3," you have not the dash, the vin the genius to mu the car of entei prise; to you be it allotted to lubr cate the axles, furnishing, from th fruits of your economy aud labor, th grease, while we, with iatrepidit and effrontery enough to shame th devil, grasp the reins and drive th car of State for our glory and a your expense! Anything cheek about that? The doctor, or as h likes to ! e called, physician, looks a at your tongue,' prescribes cal?me charces you fiv? dollars, and if yo ^ini^pur __ 7?gl??**"-"?iri would wreasily u^ueoy handing hit twenty five cents', and crediting $4.7 to cheek. The lawyer takes a te: j dollar claim, hurries up the cost, dt? I lays the discussion, charges twenty I live, perhaps fifty; calls Iiis cheel knowledge, and silently chuckles a your submissiveness and calls yoi "clod hopper"' because you are toi modest to show cheek. The railroat man, cheek-by jowl with the lawyer gets from you through legislative ac the righi ol way through your home stead, digs up your orchard, ii rei your held, screams hia locomotiv? whistle in your ear at midnight'? stilly hour, charges ten per cent freight, kills your cowa, leeds tht lawyer, calls it business, curses yout impudence for daring to complain and plays * general ^ame ol binti with cheek us the main card. Farmers, "stick to your plow han? dies," but cultivate cheek, and it will O?I'V be when you have a sufficiency o! the latter article that you can reasonably expect, to cope with this progressive age of progressive Amer icans- lamar in Fftrnnw) World. Vermin on the Fowls. The real amount of damage done . 9 by He* and parasites generally on poultry is not generally known. With nine-tenths of the people, whenever a fowl dies, it is said to be from cholera, whereas the cause at the bottom is much more likely to be vermin or roup. Thousands of fowls are awaited and killed by the ver miu which infest their bodies and houses, especially in the summer time. There are parasites of all sizes aud colora that are constantly sapping out the very life from the fowls, and making them so weak that they are easy victims to all dis eases. Your fowls drop off one by oue, aud you wonder what's the mat ter. Reader, if you have a poultry house, there are probably thousands of vermin swarming in it now. Some are so small a-id of such color that it is bani to see them. Shake ons ol the fowls over the sleeve ul your white shirt and look well for the re suit. You need not expect the chicks to grow fast; nor the older ones to give good returns in eggs while lice are about. Now, to kill these pests and prevant them, clean the hou-e well, take whitewash (to which may be. added, if handy, a little carbolic ncid) and apply thoroughly to the roosts, nests, cracks, etc., and if yon do the work well you have got them. After this, once a week, rub coal oil on the poles, just before the fowls go to roost. Three or four times a year fumigate the hon se with burning snlphor or rosin while the fowls aie outside. Branches of cedar trees in the house, or carbolic powder kept scattered urotiud on the floor and in the neeta, or tobacco stems and leaves used the same way, are excellent pre ventive?. A i Verm^^c^^n^^^^^^^^^o^ cedar and generally keep away from it. Oil is death to them. But do not put too much oil on a mother hen, for it will bill the chicks that brood under her as well as kill the vermin. At this time of year ver min are thick and are hard to keep off. No one can estimate the dam.' age they do. Give the house a good dose of whitewash now before you forget it, and oil the poles "weekly, and it will pay big.-Correspondent Journal of Agriculture. The "Southern Winter" Turnip. As this is about the season for sow ing Turnips, we publish the following from the Southern Cultivator and Dirie Farmer : People in the South who have cul ti vated only the varieties of turnip that are grown at tho North, have no conception of how exceedingly valu able the turnip crop may be made here. Ir. is well known that, in Eng land, turnips with which to winter sbeop are the means whereby the lands have.been brought to a higher state of productiveness and rental than in any other country in the world. In our Northern States, though turnipa grow as well as in England or anywhere, their economic value is cancelled by the fact that the severity ot the winter necessi tates harvesting and housing them> as ia not done in the milder winter climate of England. And with most sorts, the same need exists even in the cotton States. But there is a sort which, while it is one of the very best in every respect, nourishes without the slightest protection, in the open ground throughout, the coldest win ters, affording not only the cheapest and best of stock feed, but constitut ing fit? at of culinary vegetables, all the time, and whatever of them is left over in the spring, producing more and better "greens" than mus tard, spinach or other beds that are sown specially for such purpose. This variety is the "Southern Winter," and is, in every way and by all odds, the best for the main crop at the South. Indeed, except a very few Purple Top, or White Dutch, for ear ly use, there is really no need for any other kind than the " Southern' Win ter," for it ia not only more produc tive and reliable thau the others, but it lasts long after they all become pithy, even when they can be kept, as they cannot without storing, while the "Southern Winter" is all the better for being left in the field till the spring. S. J. MATTHEWS. Monticello, Ark. A DISCOVERY.-There is a weed in the South known a6 the wild coffee plant, which has cau3ed the planters a good deal of trouble and annoy ance, and has consequently betn greatly dispised. It has recently deen descovered that the planL^^? its" use, aa \9r>? can be made i'/omin equal to the best hemp, and stronger and finer than the best jute. The discovery was made by a negro who wanted a piece of rope, but could find none. On looking around his attention was attracted to this plant, and. he cut the stalks and treated them in the same manner he had been accustomed to see hemp treated in Kentucky, and the result was a fibre of good length and of surpris ing strength, which the old man soon converted into rope. REMEDY FOR HO-.; CHOLERA -FA itor.< Southern Cultivator and Dixie Fanner: One pound ol' copperas, one pound of saltpetre, one half pound of ginger, mix together and give each year old hog one teaspoon ful, younger ones less, once a day for two or three days, then, as c. preven tive, every two or three months; put in slops or meal grits Never knew it to fail if not too sick to eat.
