AN UMPIRE'S VALEDICTORY.
An umpire went.sallying out into the east,
Out into the east ere the sun went down.
He thought of the club that loved him
least,
And the quickest way to leave the town,
But men must chin and boys must cheer,
And the umpire's lot is hard and drear,
Along with the crowd and ita groaning
A map stood up and called out Foul !
And called out Foul! with an angry
frown ;.
Then made for the gate with a sudden
howl,
While the mob with bricks tried to
knock him down.
For men will fight and boys will jeer,
And luck is best when the gate ia near,
To escape from the crowd and its groan
ing.
A doctor waa working the best he knew
how,
The beet he knew how, aa the sun weat
dow^n,
He thought as he plastered the broken
brow
Of the awful yells aud the missiles
thrown. . :
Fir clubs will play and mobs will fight,
.a.nd the' umpire's lucky if he lives till
night
To escape from the crowd and its groan
ing.

The CopdiUatt of Crops fo sooth |
carolina.
COLUMBIA, S. C., August. 4.-The
State Department of Agriculture fur
nishes the following information re
garding the growing crops, derived
from the reports of its county and
township correspondents.
Colton.
Thc favorable condition of the cot
ton crop during June has been fully
maintained in.July. Throughout the
Slate generally the plant shows a rep
id and healthy growth, and the re
ports indicate one of the finest crops
grown in the State for many years.
?-In some sections the raine have been
excessive, and in others there has
bseu insufficient rainfall, but theee
cindi tiona exist only in a few locali
ties, and are hot general enough to
appreciably affect the crop.
The correspondents with scarcely
an exception; report that where the
trop has been well worked, and this
has been done very generally, the
prospects for a^ foll yield: are very
promieiug. , Caterpillars have ap
peared in Aiken, Darlington, Orange*
burg, Sumter, Beaufort, Berkeley,
Charleston, Colleton and Hampton,
but so far have done no serious harm
-but farmers are apprehensi .'o of
damage that may be done by second
brood.
The planters have begun the use
of Paris green in aome of the lower
,_counties, and this will be resorted to
iu other sections if necessary. Slight
Sledding ie noticed in localities, but
the crop baa sustained no injury from
" earo'cauae. ooma correspondente pay
that the plant is growing too much to
weed and is not fruiting well.
In a few townships labor baa cot
been sufficient to work the crop, a: d
that ie still grassy, and a small ana
has been abandoned from thia cause.
The condition, August lat, is re
ported: In upper Carolina at 101,
middle Carolina at 99 and lower Caro
lina at 98, average for the State, 99.
The following was the condition cn
the firet of Auguet in the years men
tioned: 1881,72; 1882,94; 1883,
79 and in 1884, 84. T?e condition is
higher than any repored by tbe Na
tional Department of Agriculture
6ince 1870. In that year it was re
ported at 101. The next highest re
porta made by that department were
in 1372.1880 and 1882, when it waa
estimated at 98.
Com.
The corn crcp is unusually good,
and many of the correspondents ex
press the opinion that it will be the
largest yield ever obtained in the
State. The early corn is safe for a
foll crop beyond all contingencies,
and the late planting premises equal
ly as well. The condition is reported
in upper Carolina 105, middle and
lower1" Caroliifa 101"; average for the
State 102;-'.against 87 for the esme
period last year.
Rice.
The condition of rice ia reported
92 in the upper counties, and in lower
Carolina at 97. A correspondent in
Berkeley says : "It baa l&en almost
--~itripo^ibki owing to the frequent
rains, to destroy the grasa infthe rice
crops, but the prospects now Le V6iy
fine." -", .
Other Crops.
The emaller crops have been necea
sarily neglected on account of the la
bor needed to keep the more import
ant crops well worked, and the condi
tion ie consequently lower than il
WGuld otherwise have been.
Sorghum ia reported at 98, augar
cane 95, peas 99, Irish potatoes 97
and sweet'r-otat'oea 99.
Facts About Hops.
?5 ii 5? ft . ii
From an, article on the position ol
the hop trade in Bradstreet's, we take
the following :
The American crop of 1884 was
estimated in round numbera follow? ;
New Yoik State,- 135,000 bale? ; Pa
cific coast, 75,000 bales ; other States,
10,000 ' balee ; total, 220,000 balea.
At present writing there aro probably
33,000 balea Pacifies, and 40,000
New York St atea Bli ll in first bands
at a conservative estimate. Few deal
era hold any hope to mention, but th?
brewers are almost all stocked up to
the fall. The new orop will be met,
therefore, by a surplus of about 70,
OOO bales on hand, or one-third of the
largest crop ever grown in the States.
The cost of raising hops in New
York State is given at 12j centtt per
pound, against 10* cents on the Pa
cific coast. The latter is so isolated
?rom the centra of consumption, how -
eyar, that 3 cents per pound must be
r<
lil
a
n
tl
G
cl
add?d for freight charges. Curre
quotations are 12 cents for clio
States, and 10 canta for Pacific-bei
below the coat of production, and r
lees the new crop should fail, pri<
moat inevitably go lower till nt
season.
With a good crop wo shall not
surprised to soe prices drop fivo cer
per pound, which will barely cov
the cost of preparing tho hops I
inaiket, after taking them from t
polee. In any caae, however, it
not anticipated that good hops w
be left standing on the polea, even
the Pacific coast, where labor is
scarce and dear. Human nature
the same everywhere, and there a
few farmers who will not take t
chances of the future, and incur
little extra expert;e, rather than fa
a dead loss.
The best qualifi?e never go a bc
ging, but with the present accomoi
tion of stock, another season of ov
production will cause the lower grad
to be almost wholly neglected, unh
they sink to a sufficiently low ebb
induce speculation. There is probat
no other farm product which di flt
ao widely aa hops, between the big
est and lowest grades.
florida Oranges vs, Nf w^Eogl

A correspondent of theMponnecfi
fiaaaqgj Tnbi,kj?ttrii?^?e Flor
has evidently caught tSl?rai
"fever," as he says it ia impoeaiiWS
go into the orange growing seciic
without catching it. He writes hoi
that ''if an ambitious, industrio!

years of labor, ho could retire frc
active business. In the same letti

"a more grain required under that
nethod '? If the method is a good
)!.e I would like to keep my COWB in
hat way. I have practised soiling

hat we have practised feeding dry
odder more or Ices, in the summer
eason, for many years, not. because
vs have believed it in every case bet
er than green food, hut as a matter
f convenience. Like oar correspond
?nt, we have soiled or stall fed our
tock chit-fly, for many years, during
he nnramer sea-on, using large quat.
ities of green food, such as green rye,
lats, barley, corn, millet, clover and
ll the common grasses gnwn on the
arm. When the green food has not
ieen in full 3 -pply, we have gone to
ho hay mows for euch dry fodder as
vu happened to have on hand, and
ustas freely aa in the winter season.
)ne year we fed cored green rye ex
lusively, with the exception of grain
ar a period rf three weeks, after the
ld hay wad all fione, and before Ihe
ew crop waa ready to cut. Wo do
ot claim that rough, dry food, like
ora fodder, cuied oate, batley, or
y*, will make cowa give ai much
jilli "aa nurdi! the- besf?l? June paa
me, or even good, green grass cut
nd carried to them, but we look upon
ry fodder aa very convenient to have
n hand in abundance, and sumetimea
s a necessary substitute for anything
etter. There ia little doubt that
a fodder ia ordinarily cut and cured,
nd aa cowa aro usual ly kept, green
>od will yield more milk than dry,
lough in the case of cattle that are
ccuBtotoed to it we have been able to
ote but little diff?rence, provided
io dry fodder waa of the beat quality,
lood rowen, made from clover, or
bard grass, and Juno grasa, all cut
*rly and given to contented cows Lhat
ave plenty ol' water lo drink, will
niko aa much milk as wiil ordinary
nature fed in the heat of Hummer, and
i limen when flies annoy cattle aa they
Binti ly do w hen at pasture. We
ant dry fodder on hand at ul 1 timos,
ir feeding in rainy weather, on Sun
ays if needed, and at any lime when
ia not convenient to oive green food.
We are thia cummer keepiug actw
tat .utanda in the barn nearly all 1
ie time, and ia fed chiefly upon new, '
ry hay, cut in June. She di inks '
lUcli mote water than if given with
reen food, bul givcB ti moat satiefac?
.ry yield of rich milk. Once in a |
eek or ten days ahe is hitched ont j
r an hour or two to get a bits of ?
eeu grar.s, and to ?Iir her jointe, i
nt aha ia always ready to go back to r
ie stable, which is cool, comfortable c
id free from troublesome Hies. It s
s.
v.
s
ia much lesa work to care for a cow
by this method than to cut green food
for her daily, or to drive her even a
short distance to pasture. Then the
manure can all be saved and applied
where it will be of mest use, instead
of being scattered about among weeds
und bushes, and in the pasture brook
or spring. The oiling system is sure
ly gaining favor through the country
year by year, and is being adopted in
part by a great many cow owners.
No more grain is required with dry
fodder than with green, but most
farmers would find it profitable to
feed cows more grain in summer than
they do. Their milk yield would
be greater, and the cows would keep
?ii better condition.-New England

AYER'S
Hair Vigor
vi toro?, with the gloss and freshness ot
youth, faded or gray hair to a natural, rich
brown color, or deep black, ns may be desired.
Hy ita use light or red hair may be darkened,
thin hair thickened, and baldness often,
though not always, cared.
It'(chccks falling of the hair, and stimu
late^ weak and sickly growth to vigor. It
-pn?uu and cures scarf and dandruff, and
huajs nearly every discaso peculiar to the
scalp. As a Ladles' Halr~T)rc8*rng7~tbe
Vicoa is unequalled ; it contains neither oil
nor dye, renders tko hair soft, glossy, and
silken in appearance,and imparts a delicate,
agreeable, and lasting perfume.
Un. C. P. BRICBTO writes from Kirby, 0_
Jula 3, \W1 : " Last fall my hair commenced
tailing out. ami lu ii short timo 1 becaino
nearly bald. I used part of a bottle of
AVKK'3 HAIR Vionit, which stopped the fall
ing of thu hair, mid started a new growth. I
have now a full head of bair growing vigor
ously, and am convinced that but for the
use of your preparation 1 should have been
entirely bald."
J. W. BOWKS', proprietor of the McArthur
(Ohio) Enquirer, says : " AVES'S HAIRVIQOB
is a most excellent preparation for the hair.
I speak of it from my own experience. Ita
use promotes thu growth of new hair, aud
makes lt glossy and soft. The VIGOR is also
a ?uro euro for dandruff. -Not within- my
knowledge has the preparation ever failed
to give eutire satisfaction."
MR. ANQUI FAIRBAIRN, leader of the
celebrated " Fairbairn Fondly " of Scottish
Vocalist*, writes from Itostou, Matt., h'tb. 6,
issi) : '. Ever since my hair began to giro sil
very evidence of tho change which fleeting
time proenreth, I have used AVKB'S HAIK
Vicoit, and so have been ablo to maiutaia
an appearance of youthfulness-a matter of
considerable consequence to ministers, ora
tors, actors, and in fact every ono who lives
iii the eyes of the public."
Mus. O. A. PnESCOTT, writing from 18 Elm
St., (-'luirlesloieu. Mau., April 14, 1882, says :
" Two years ago about two-thirds of my hair
came o'ir. It chinned very rapidly, and 1 was
fast growing bald. On using AYKR'S HAIR
Vinoa tho fulling stopped mid a new growth
commenced, and in about a month my head
was completely covered with short hair, lt
han continued to grow, and is now as good RS
before it fell. 1 regularly nsed but one bottle
of thc VIIIOR, but now use it occasionally as
a dressing."
Wo hare hundreds of similar testimonials
to tho efficacy of AVER'S HAIR VIGOR. It
needs hut a trial to convince the ?nest skepti
cal of its value. * .
