Utmerally plants are vigorous and capa

ample growth and UtU Unveloi uncut In
listru-ta most, infested with cotton worm the
loss Is irreparable and still threatening.
The condition of spring wheat has been
impaired since the 1-1 of August in the
northwest, the district or principal produc
tion. Heavy rains were followed by extreme
heat between the 1st and the middle of Au
gust, just lief ore harvest.shrtvollin the grain

The general average fur all sp"iii wheat
is SHij. against U5 in August The crop of
last yar was l.Vi,OH,o.h bush.ds.
The returns of winter wheat are almost
identical in result with those of July.
There is a slight advance in Michigan,
Texas, Maryland and some othur states,
and a point or two of decrease in sevend.
The general average is IVYS against C m
July. Except a- the re-ult vf threshing

W wheat area may te placed at -17.000,0011
busbels, and tlift remainm area ab ut K14,-
000,000. If injuries reporteiin the st-ack
hould prove ti be greater Mian ut pre ent
apparent & miibons of reduction might
still accrue.
The condition of corn still continues high,
ranging from 90 to 300 in stat averages.
The general average is tl5 against lt in Au

Frosts have wrought very little injury and
will be capable of little if deferred ten days.
The prosject is still favorable for a crop
slightly above the average.

lindeveloped Kesmi-ces in Ireland.
Eklkakt, Sept 11. The harbor commis
sioners gave a banimet IVednesilay night to
the earl of Carnarvon. The earl made
long speech, in the course of which he said
it was time to reject sentiment and institute
an impartial and searching inquiry iuto the
relative merits ot free trade and protection
He bad been struck by the vast natural re-
sources of the west of Ireland that remained
iindeveloiied owing to the alisencs of rail
ways and markets. It was a delicate ques.
tion whether the government should aid in
the development of these resources, but the
circumstances of Ireland were similar t
tho of colonies where such aid had been
given with advantage.
