Reports uf late relative to tin condition of the cotton plant ii the fields are all of a unifornili favorable tenor, and even the re cent heavy rainfall in central am southwestern Texas will no change the conditions materially unless, indeed, it will improvi them in that State, for the need o rain had been indicated for tin region over which the rains oe curred In Arkansas and Ten nesscc, where ihe reports heretofore indicated slow growth, th weather conditions have roeenth been extremely favorable. In North Carolina tho growtl of cotton has been rapid, not with standing that it was checked a lit tie by cool nights early in tlx week: the stand is good. In South Carolina cotton con tinucs to do well, with raph growth except in the up country where the soil lacks moisture, bu the crop as a whole is very pro mising. Blooms are reportei from nearly every section of tin State. Sea islaud cotton is in ex cedent condition and blooming freely. In Georgia cotton has not suf fered materially as yet and is now taking on bloom. In Florida the condition of cotton is fairly good. It is sevcru weeks late, and there are a few complaints of shedding. In Alabama cotton is small, bul continues clean and healthy: it ii forming a good bush, fruiting satisfactorily, and is generally promising, though bugs are injuring the squares in a few localities In Mississippi the cotton cro| is generally very favorably reported upon, especially earl) planted, w hich has been verv m*n / - - J o crully worked and is largely it Idoom. The fields are roportet irregular, some showing plant: varying from six inches to two 01 more feet in height. In Louisiana the older, or firs planted cotton, is now doing well but the late planted cotton, 111 tin central and northern parishes, that came up since the genet al rains of .June 10 to 12, althougl showing a good stand tit first i? now reported as dying for want ol sufficient moisture or struggling with grass and weeds for ex is tcnee. In Texas cotton is growing nicely in all parts of the State and is generally fruiting well. Uoports from some Idealities ol the northern and central portions convey ilie information that cotton is growing so rapidly that if is not rooting properly, and therefore will not bo in a condition t( hold up even under moderatel) BAD BLOOD "CAtCA It KTM da all claimed Cap tlicw and are a truly wonderful medicine I haveollet wlnlii-d for a medicine pleasant to lake and at ln*l have found it in Canards Since taking them nij Min.i1 haa tiecn (nirltled and in; comi lesion lias lin proved wonderfully and I let') min i.

At your solicitation, I will en - i i deavor to answer the questions, which you sent mo in re fere i eo to , the advantages tho South oilers as | 1 a sheep-breeding country. 1 have been raising sheep here * for the past nineteen years and I 'jam very much pleased wi'h my ? i success in the business. The adIjvantages I ere are various, viz: 'I First, our climate usually is mild ' I in winter and not too hot in sum-] 5 met* for the welfare of the sheep, j Second, our lands are undulating! ?| enough for good drainage, and | furnish quite a variety of nutriI tious grasses and weeds of which j ' the sheep arc very fond, as they i relish a change of food; and last, " but not least, we have the .Japan ' clover (botanical name Lespede/.a striatal in the greatest abundance, i The above-named clover serves a ' two-fold purpose, being the best " of grazing foods for sheep, as it ' i never gets to be too coarse and the analysis of it is higher than ( * j that of any other clover. We do ' not have to sow it. 1 never knew ' any one to sow it in this country. I It lirst made its appearance in the i South about 1SC0, and since then "jit has become indigenous to the 1 soil. It is a wonderful renovator ' j of land that has become exhausted I by injudicious treatment. If the Southern farmers would use a portion of the land that they are! ' now wearing out making live cent ' cotton for a sheep pasture, and J after using it si few years for u 1 pasture, enltivate it and an-j ' other portion for a pasture, thev 1 will not only find sheep raising aj pleasant and profitable hti-dnevs, ' hut will find that they have lesirn- ' ?

We are not troubled with severe ' changes in the weather such as i blizzards and blinding snow 1 storms as thev have in some other I r | Mutes.

We have quite a number of dogs in our seetion?good, bad and indiiFeront. The only reason that 1 know of why sheep raising is not more generally engaged in, is because the farmers, like 'Ephraim joined to his idob," nre so devoted to raising cotton that they imagine that they cannot spare enough land for a pasture. 1 have tried and seen others try quiio a nil nher of breeds of sheep, and all of them did well, but 1 think the Tunis or African Broad tail sheep superior to any of them. They are very hardy, docile and the best sheep for both wool and mutton that 1 know of. 1 think that it is the finest mutton that 1 ever saw, and I do not believe that there is any mutton that is superior to it. The ewes are good sticklers and devoted moth" ers, and this breed of sheep is one of the Itest breeds for raising early lambs for the Northern market. i lrcijueiiuy iui\c minus large enough to kill in January and February.
