Grass Lake News man gives a newly
fledged newspaper venture np that,
way:
The Munith Tidings is a new but
bright paper, the twelfth now regularly issued in this county. We hope it
has come to stay. Country newspapers
usually have hard sledding, but as long
as a man can get corn dodgers twice a
day, and the cast-off clothes of his relatives to wear, there is no reason on
earth why he should not make a success of running a paper anywhere. It
may even happen, as it frequently does
in Jackson, that henroosts in the vicinity of editors' houses suffer like blazes,
but what of it'? People should not
complain. They should be willing and
more than willing to devote their poultry to the strengthening and perpetuating of journalism, and the man who
would lock up his Plymouth Rocks or
Cochin Chinas for the purpose of hamstringing or barring the progress of a
dignified and elevated newspaper, is an
enemy of mankind and an abhorrent
scoundrel. After these few broken remarks we should suppose the Tidings
will understand how to keep its head
above water in case the worst overtakes
it.

May Crop Report.
For this report returns have been received from 822 correspondents representing 629 townships. Five hundred
and sixty-two of these reports are from
395 townships in the southern four tiers
of counties, and 141 reports are from
125 townships in the central counties.
The reports indicate that of the area
seeded to wheat last fall, ten per cent
in the southern counties, thirteen per
cent iu the eeutral, and one per cent in
the northern, will be plowed up because winter-killed or otherwise destroyed. In condition there was very
little improvements during April.
The exact figures for May 1, are as follows, comparison being with vitality
and growth of average years: Southern
counties 73 per cent, central counties
72 per cent, northern counties 87 pet-
cent, and state 75 per cent. The corresponding figures on April 1 were 70,
65, 86, and 71. One year ago the figures for the southern counties were 90,
central 97, northern 100, and state 92.
The best wheat is in the counties of
Berrien, Cass, St. Joseph and Yan
Buren which form a group in the ex-,
treme south-western part of the state.
In these the condition ranges from 92
in Berrien to 100 in St. Joseph. Tho
second best wheat is in the five counties just north and east of the group
named, viz.: Kent, Ottawa, Allegan,
Kalamazoo and Branch, where the condition ranges from 85 in Kalamazoo to
89 in Allegan. Iu the remaining seven
counties of the southern two tiers, viz.:
Calhoun, Jackson, Washtenaw, Wayne,
Hillsdale, Lenawee, Monroe the range
is from 66 in Monroe to 79 in Jackson,
aud the average condition for the seven
counties is 74.
The poorest wheat is in the remaining counties of the third and fourth
tiers, or in the twelve counties lying
oast *of Kent and Allegan. In this
group the condition ranges from 47 in
Eaton to 73 in Ionia. In only five
counties in this group is tho condition
better than 60, and the average for the
entire group is 60, or 14 points below
the average in the third group named.
.In the first and second groups there
will be but very little wheat plowed up
because winter-killed or otherwise destroyed. In the third group the estimates of amount that will be plowed up
range from five per cent in Jackson to
nineteen per cent in Monroe, and in
tlie fourth group the range is from
'seven per cent in Barry to twenty in
Macomb, 26 in Shiawasee, 28 in Ingham
and 29 in St. Clair. Many correspondents report that much more wheat
would be plowed up were it not that
tho fields have been seeded to clover.
The total number of bushels of wheat
reported marketed in the nine months,
August-April, is 11,647,239, or about
50 per cent of the crop of 1889. The
number of bushels reported marketed
in the same months of 1888-9 was 13,-
550,747, or 57 per cent of the crop of
1SS8.
Clover meadows and pastures, like
wheat, were damaged by the dry
I weather of last fall and the open winter. It is estimated that 15 per cent of
these will be plowed up. The -Average
condition in the southern counties is
180, ia the central 78, and in the northern 92.
The outlook is yet favorable for a
fair crop of apples. The estimates indicate nearly nine-tenths of an average
crop.
Judged by the sectional averages
alone the outlook for a crop of peaches
is not discouraging, but it must not be
overlooked that many of the reports
are for very small orchards, or for only
scattering trees. It is noticeable that
in a number of the western counties
where the orchards are large the averages are low, as Yan Buren 20, Allegan
28, Ottawa 27, and Kent 36.

Acute and chronic rheumatism can be
effectually and permanently cured by the
use of TTtbbabd's Rheumatic Ssbup and
Plasters. 38
The effect of using Htbbasd's Baecmatio
Sybup is unlike all medicines containing
opates and poisons, it being entirely free
from. them. It cures rheumatism by purifying the blood. 38
Ladies.
As spring is here I call you attention
to my felts, stamped goods, all lands
fancy materials, etc. Also sell the
combination waists for ladies and children. ' Stamping of all lands done.
Mrs. Daggett.
HtbbAnn's Bheumac Sxeto? and Plasters are prescribed by the leading physicians of Michigan, its home state, and are
remedies of unequalled merit for rheumatism, blood disordersand liver and kidney
complaints. It comes with the highest
recommenda tions. 38
Go to D. Nissly's for one of those val
uable books on Cooking and Housekeeping. No cost to you, directly or
indirectly.
In its treatment of rheumatism and all
rhematie troubles, Htbbaxd's Rheumatic
Sirup stands first and foremost above all
others. Read their medical pamphlet and
learn of the great medical value of the remedies which enter into its composition.    38
