WEATHEB CHOP BULLETIN.
Of til. Indiana Weather 8.1.1c. la co-op.ratloa with
th. Halted States Blgaal Bervlc. for the week ending
■atarday. Hay If, 1891.    .
Little, or In most portions of the State,
no rain fell; the temperature was slightly
below the average, It was moderately warm
during.the day and quite cool during the
nigh ts; cloudless sky continued during the
entire week but the sunshine was veiled
by often dense smoke from forest fires in
Michigan; the weather was not very fav-
orable,the absence of rain Is now beginning
to be felt, and rain is mnch needed everywhere; although all crops are effected,
oats and tobacco suffer most; some corn
was planted but not all, the ground being
so dry and cloddy, it is hard to prepare;
wheat and pasturage and even fruit still
promise an excellent yield, the late frosts
were apparently less injurous, in the
southern and central portion of the State
than it seemed at first.
SOUTHERN PORTION.
Columbus, Bartholomew Co.—The
drought still continues with sunshine
tempered by a smoky atmosphere and
with a temperature below normal; wheat
oats, oorn and clover are being more or
less injured by the drouth; considerable
corn is yet to be planted, some of the
farmers have discontinued trying to plant
and will wait for rain; we had light frost
on the 12th.   Kainfall, 0.02.
Vevay, Switzerland Co.—Clear and cool
weather prevailed during the week with a
temperature below average; light rain on
the 11th; the scarcity of rain has an unfavorable eflect on vegetation in general;
planting of corn and tobacco suffer delay;
garden vegetables appeardwarfed and languishing from need of moisture; so far,
not any-visible Injury from frost has occurred ; the fruit prospect is very flattering
and exempt from the ravages of Injurious Insects, the future of the crops la
daily brightening.   Rainfall, 0.04.
Marengo, Crawford Co.—The corn planting ;will be completed next week:
wheat promises weU yet; the prospect for
oats is not so good; rain Is much needed.
Frosts formed on the 8tb, 9th,andl2th,but
it seems that they dldno injury.   No rain.
CENTRAL rOBTION.
Indianapolis, Marlon Co.—Cool temperature prevailed, but little rain fell; al
though rain is much needed; crops still
look very well and promising, except oats,
which suffers in sotne localities. Rainfall,
0.11.
Maur.y, Rush Co.—Dusty roads, cloddy
ground and crops need rain; vegetation is
only growing slowly; the nights were
oold with frost. Northeast wind prevailed
since _ the 10th with dense smoke and
haze and few clouds. Most corn is planted; pasturage is in good condition. No
rain.
Franklin, Johnson Co.—Tho weather has
been dry, cool and smoky, very much like
Indian Hummer. Corn is not all planted
and some farmers are not done breaking
yet; tho ground is very dry and hard to
pulverize; some farmers havo laid aside,
the harrow and roller; they hitch from
three to six horses to a large log, using it
as a drag to crush the clods. The late frosts
killed a portion of the plums, cherries and
grapes; yet the damage is considered not
very serious.   Rainfall, 0.10.
DeGonia Springs, Warrick Co.—All
crops and grasses are suffering more or less
for want of rain; oats and tobacco plants
most; preparation of corn lieldslsdillicult,
especially where the roller and harrow aro
not used Immediately after plowing, but
planting is very well advanced and corn
is coming up.   No rain.
Worthlngton, Greene Co.—The tompera.
ture excepting the 9th and 10th has been
below the normal. The drouth is causing
much uneasiness in regard to wheat, oats,
and grass which are being seriously injured. There is a large acreage of corn
planted, and early planted has come up
well, [promising a good stand. Rainfall,
0.11.
Mount Vernon, Posey Co.—The weather
has been quite cool and smoky; more acres
of corn will be planted this year than last;
three-fourths of the corn is planted but it
needs rain;]since the 11th ripe strawberries
are abundant; wheat and grass look very
well.   No rain.
Troy, Perry Co.—The weather has been
cool and dry; as no rain has fallen for two
weeks crops are advancing slowly only;
the frost last week did somo injury to apples, there will not be more tban half of a
crop; peaches were not injured; blackberries are in bloom.   No rain.
Richmond, Wayne <?o.—Cool nights and
warm days, with a smoky atmosphere;
planting is at a stand still; the
ground Is too dry and cloddy; rain Is
much needed; wheat is doing finely; tho
frosts last week did some injury to fruit
and early vegetables, still there are plenty
left of most things.   Kainfall, trace.
Butlervllle,Jennings Co.—Corn planting
progresses very slowly as the ground is
very dry; another frost on the 12th, the
damage to fruit cannot be fully estimated
until later.   No rain.
NORTHERN rORTION.
Delphi, Carroll Co.—While there Is no
apparent Injury to wheat from the continued dry weather, it probably would be
better with rain; corn, which is generally
all planted, Is slow and uneven in coming
up, and pasturage, needs rain. Rainfall,
0.33.
LaPorte, LaPorte Co.—Rain ia much
needed; corn planting is nearly completed;
wheat continues in fine condition; oats Is
not making good growth for want of rain;
the atmosphere is filled with thin blue
smoke, making the sun and moon look
red; it is supposed the smoke is from the
extensive forest fires in Michigan. Raln-
faU,0.16.
Angola, Steuben Co.—No injury is apparent yet from late frosts—everything
seems to be all right; there were nice
showers on the 10th and 11th which did
much good to growing crops, but since
then no rain fell; most corn is planted;
the ground la in good condition, although ' Magazine,
it is rather dry; wheat is doing well. Rainfall, 0.5(5.
Point Isabel, Grant Co.—The weather
has not been favorable to farmers; tbe dry
weather Is telling on almost all crops;
corn is coming up very uneven, the
ground is hardand cloddy; wheat is still
in good condition; all fruit was injured
badly except apples; gardens are suffering
for rain very much; frost formed on the
morning of tbe 12th.   Rainfall, 0.13.
Logan sport, Cass Co.—The general rise
in temperature has been very beneficial to
all crops, but rain is much needed; the
frosts of last week injured all fruit, later
shoots of grapes may bring something.
Rainfall, 0 20.
Shldeler, Delaware Co.—Corn ia nearly
all planted: tho recent frosts killed nearly
all grapes aDd strawberries; of apples and
cherries enough is left unharmed to yield
a good crop.

Sensitive on the Subject.
Editors Indiana Farmer:
Please correct a statement made by you
in the Farmer, viz, that "J. D., of Montgomery county, aswers all the questions
negatively except the first [using tobacco]
and he considered that perfectl} legitimate,
the right of a free born citizen, etc.
I should not have referred to this matter at all but I see that Monroe county
Farmer criticises my position, or the one
you placed me in. I made no such statement, nor did I use language that would
bear any such construction.
I answered no to all the questions submitted by Monroe county Farmer, and attempted to show the fallacy of his position, and that of D. K., of Montgomery
county also. The personal habits of the
farmers have no more to do with tbe present farm and farm product depression
than the personal habits of a John Chinaman have to do with the doctrine of the
atonement.
Montgomery Co. J. J. D.
—We make the correction with greatest
pleasure, especially as Sir. D. is so indignant as being classed among tobacco users.
Would that all our readers were so squeamish on the subject. The mistake occurred
in the attempt of our assistant to condense
a number of replies to Monroe county
Farmer, some of them quite lengthy, into
a single article. He got some other writer's letter mixed up with that of Mr. 1).,
probably.
The Unemployed.
Herbert V. Mills, and Knglish political
economist, in his work, "Poverty and the
State," asserts that there is "only honest
work in Kngland, to occupy, at the utmost, two* thirds of the population." A
few years ago, a great crowd gathered before tbe residence of Mr. Chamberlain, in
Birmingham, and explained to him that
they wanted no more charity, but work,
of any kind. A Liverpool paper gave an
account of the meeting of half-starved
men in a cellar, at which a speaker said,
"What we want Is work, not work as
bounty, though the parish has been busy
enough among us lately, God knows!
What we want is honest work." Could
any cry of children be more pathetic than
this demand of full-grown men 7 And yet
the same thing Is heard here and there in
our own country. The conditions are the
same ln kind, though they have fully developed themselves. The numbers of
those who have little or no employment
are increasing from year to year; and over
against tbe several millions in Great Britain we are said to have already a million
here, taking the country altogether.—

by William  M. Salter,  ln New England
