AGRICULTURAL NOTES.
AGRICULTURAL NOTES. During the week progress amongst farm crops has not been very marked, the temperature having decreased considerably. Rain has fallen intermit- tently or every day of the week. and has been accompanied by strong north-west winds at times. What is required is somewhat warmer weather to force on the crops; a rise of temperature accom- panied with frequent showers would be a boon to every farmer. The appearance of the country generally is very much better than it was, and on the whole the position may be regarded as a greatly improved one when a comparison is drawn with the position of affairs a month ago. The condition of all crops in Great Britain runs with remarkable sequence from the fowest point in the south to the highest point in the north. Whilst the former are lamenting over the small hay crop, and are not ex- pecting very great things from corn, in the Mid- lands and North of England the yield of hay and the condition of crops have been and are good and on crossing the border into Scotland we find it reported that farmers in that part of the kingdom are in enjoyment of a prospect so hopeful as is met with in but few years. All cereal crops are far advanced, and will be heavy; one report states heavier in some cases than is desirable, since under such circumstance the danger of lodging is in- creased. In some districts in Scotland barley islin full ear, and an early harvest is expected, whilst oats are luxurant and promise an excellent crop. In Ireland the position is also favourable, although, it cannot be painted with such a rosy colour as the Scottish outlook. Taking the kingdom as a whole, the position is more satisfactory and encouraging than was seemingly at one time possible. THE DROUGHT. Wales has borne the full brunt of the drought. The upland fields in the county of Carnarvon, the pastures of Merioneth, and extensive districts in Anglesey, Pembroke and Carmarthen arc more or less burnt up. In Pembroke the combined effects of the drought and tly" have rendered the prospects of the root crops quite problemati- cal, and in Glamorgan field beans have been nearly destroyed by blight. Of the cereal crops wheat, so far as it is grown, looks best, and barley ranks next, whilst oats are poor. The hay crop is everywhere below average, in some localities being less than one-fourth of the normal yield. THE PRINCE OF WALES'S SANDRINGHAM STOCK SALE. The sale of the Prince of Wales's Sandringham herd and flock, at Wolferton, on Friday, attracted about 1,000 people from various parts of the country, the Continent, and America. About 700 of these were entertained to luncheon. His Royal Highness presided, and. amongst others present were the Princess of Wales, Princesses Yictoria and Maud, the Duke and Duchess of York, Baron Ferdinand de Rothschild, Lord Crewe, Lord Brougham, General Sir Dightoa Probyn, Sir Jacob ilson, Sir Oswald Moslev, the Hon. Cecil Parker, Mr Walter Long, &c. The prize bull at the Royal Agricultural Show, which the Prince sold for 1,COO guineas, was exhibited in the ring prior to the sale. Thirty-seven cows, heifers, and calves made z62,012, an average of over X54 16s. Bulls fetched 91,423, an average of about £ 189; 200 yearlings and full mouthed ewes fetched zES50, an average of E4 6s. Ten rams fetched X189, an average of X18 9s; the total oeiug £ 4,485. The principal buyers included the Queen, Baron Roths-' child, Lord Crewe, Lord Brougham, LoidFeversham, Sir James Blyth, Sir Oswald Mosley, Mr Ernest T. Hooley, of Derbyshire, Mr M'Calland, and Mr Miller, of South America, and M. Bosio, of France. SIX MONTHS OF STOCK DISEASE. The first half of the year having passed an opportunity is afforded of taking stock of the ravages which disease amongst live stock has cre- ated this year, and of forming some idea of the loss which has been inflicted upon the country by the destruction of diseased or suspected animals. The most serious point observable is the extent to which swine fever prevails. We have on previous occasions directed attention to the increase of outbreaks and the greater slaughter of pigs which is now going on. A similar story has again to be told. In the six months ending June 30th, there were 3,247 outbreaks of swine fever in Great Britain, and in connection with these there were killed 44,451 animals. It must not be ima- gined, however, that the whole of these were dis- eased, as all animals which have been exposed to infection are destroyed by the authorities. Nevertheless, it is an immense loss, because pro- baby three-fourths of these under other circum- stances would have been kept and have added to the food supply or to the swine stock of the country. These numbers are greatly in excess of any previous year, and they afford no consolation beyond this, that the fact may be due to a more rigorous inspection with a view of eventually ex- terminating disease. There have been also more outbreaks of anthrax than was the case last year, bar, the number of animals affected has been less There were likewise more cases of pleuro-pneu- monia, but the outbreaks were few in number, only two, though they led to the destruction of 192 animals. There were fewer cases of glanders and of rabies, and no case of foot-and mouth disease. Were it not for the enormous increase in the swine fever figures, the health of the stock of Great Britain could be regarded as showing a general im- provement on comparing the present six months with the corresponding period of last year. POTATOE DISEASE. The first intimation of the presence of potato disease reaches us from the south-west of Ireland, where it is usually found when it makes itself known at all. At present it has not been recorded in Great Britain, but the present atmospherical conditione, if followed by a warm temperature, will not un- likely cause or bring about its advent. Prevention is at all times better than cure, and anyone who has I a crop of potatoes on land whia is favourable to the disease will do well to takest-eps to prevent it. This could be done by the Use (bouillie bordelaise, a mixture of lime and sulphte of copper and water. The proportions used lre variable, but a good mixture is obtained by sing 20 lbs. of sul- phate of copper and 20 lbs ofl;1e in 100 gallons of water. The lime should be m^d in one barrel of water and the sulphate of cop4r in another, then the two liquids mixed togetheoefore application. Some persons add a quantity ( molasses in order, as they believe, to secure beor adhesion to the foliage of the plant. Those 410 do not want the trouble of mixing in this manni can obtain a special concentrated Bordeaux mixturV/hichonly requires to be stirred in water to be redy for distribution. It is known as Strawsonite an is made by the firm which has brought out spraYinrPparatus of various kinds. By applying the ixe early the disease may be kept away, but it is actable not to depend upon one spraying, but to givf second and a third at intervals. The applied of the Bordeaux mixture has no manurial eflfey although there are people who believe it has, 4caluse crops dressed with it have produced a great crop than those not so dressed. The fact is an greased quantity of tubers is taken from the pllL\;s because they are protected from disease, and, able to grow for a longer period. It is simply he maturing of the crop, instead of its growth jging retarded, and eventually stopped, by the \ease. The cost of applying this mixture is eX%dingly small when compared with the differenceln value of the pro- tected and unprotected crop, d as it can be done at so low a cost there is no use for the grower who loses a crop of potatoes Ç-ough neglecting to supply this mixture, which hUreds of experimeuts have proved to be reliable and ffectivj Jugt one word more may be added, [an^hat is do not wait until the disease appears, but <f perform the opera- tion necessary to prevent its ateariiig. MARKING F'NGLIS^MEAT The necessity of marking Elish meat is well illustrated by an anecdote in abrthern newspaper this week. It states that Ashort time ago a gentleman, well known in the. teottish live stock trade, called at a large and wl known butoher's shop in Glasgow and saw l\ing outside four splendid carcases of black-fachc, sheep, with their heads on. Inside the shop, lIever, the eyes of the expert failed to discover ^^jjing but foreign meat, and the assumption 19 the butcher sold the foreign article as the e» Scottish mutton. This is a practice which is no \jfine[] to the canny Scot, but it serves to show 1 something ought to b6 done to prevent this There has been issued this week a pamphle ^jng out a system of marking foreign or C^1 produce. The author is Mr. John I. 'of Whistley, near Devizes, Wiltshire, who Ka^ < evidence on the subject before the House 0 Vis. The methods he proposes to adopt is that .^ages representing beef, veal, mutton, lamb, vew ^lC0T1) an(j pork, must be marked with a wire I seal round each leg, the seal bearing an iwP \on ()f the word foreign. When the carcase -u^ Up the pieces must be labelled with a tneta bearing that particular word. All cheese \de abroad should bear the word foreign l01P^sed jn the cheese which is easily arranged; a_.qj)0Uitry should be marked in a much similar to meat. Cured bacon and hams should Probably these regulations could be Ae(j withont much trouble, and some such oug enforced in the interest of the the consumer. The public will not be so to agree to the suggestion that butter, rai > (ad cream should bear a distinctive colour (re .( suggested), and some other mode of marking ^Mjjave t0 be found to denote whether the pr°^c'is home raised or foreign.

ITEMS FOR LADIES.
ITEMS FOR LADIES. i The Society of Women Journalists achii-ved a most notable and brilliant success lust week. The kindly and beautiful vonng Duchess of Sutherland having lent them the lordly reception-rooms at Stafford House, they give there on Wednesday night an "at Home" that was at once a social, artistic, and journalistic success. The magnificent rooms were the theme of every tonurue. The Long Galleiy, wi;h its decorations of white gold, its wonderful ceiling, gold and white, and its splendid pictures, to say nothing of its noble dimensions, was the scene of the entertain nientzz, to which some of the best talent in London contrbnted. The president of the society, Mrs Craigie (John Oliver Hobbes), assisted by Mss Jack Johnson, hon. secretary, and sundry members of the Council, received the guests at the foot of grand staircase in the hall, which is such a revelation to those who see it for the first time. It is said that the Queen, when she wished to see what palaces are like, goes to Stafford House. It is certain that nothing at St. James's, Buckingham Palace, or Windsor Castle can in the least compare with the spacious grandeur of the apartments at Stafford House. The flowers in some of the rooms on Wednesday night were alone worth going far to see. They came from Trcntham, the Duke's country place in Stafford- shire, of which Disraeli wrote so glowingly in "Lothair." One large table held an immense plateau, from which rose a couple of hundred or so of large and perfect Malmaison carnations. On another table were rare orchids, arranged with a similar generous profusion. The chimneypieces weie hung with trails of smilax and small ivy, and banked with roses and orchids. When the Duche-s herself joined the throng of women journalists and their friends the scene was one that might have raised a pardonable emotion of pride in the hearts of those who wield the pen for a living, often labouriously and frequently in circumstances of great difficulty. Here was recognition from those in the high places of the world, and the courtesy that impelled the Duchess to join us for, lialf-an- hour was but a corollary to her goodness in lending her palatial rooms for the occasion. Her Grace was looking lovely in a ball dress of rose-pink silk, witli ,Ieeves of some cloudy stuff in the same colour. In her hair she wore a light and graceful diamond ornament. With her was Princess Henry of Pless, the pretty daughter of a lovely mother, Mrs Corn- wallis West. The Princess was in white, sewn with green sequins in wavy lines. In her hair were pink roses, pinned in with half-a-dozen pins livith (heads of pearl set in diamonds. With these ladies, whose magnificent stature gave added effect to their beauty, were the Duke of Sutherland, Lord Crews, and Mr Arthur Balfour. Later came Lord Rose- bery, looking almost boyishly young and blithe. Mr Asquith was accompanied by his charming wife, who was much interested in the scene from the "Mikado," given in costume by Miss Rosina Brandram and Mr Passmore. M. Johannes Wolff played a delicious Romance of his own composi- tion on his violin. In .view of the forthcoming marriage of the Princess Maud it will be of general interest to furnish a few particulars respcting her Royal High- ness's trousseau. The Princess of Wales has always been distinguished by the faultless taste shown in her own toilet and in that of her daughters. This perfect taste and avoidance of all that borders on the extravagant is the keynote of the present Royal trousseau. The materials used are of the finest and the best possible quality and every detail has been well thought out, so as to make an artistic and harmonious whole. The underlinen, which with the wedding gown and an important part of the outfit have been entrusted to Mesdumes Berthe and Yoe, is of the daintiest description, yet by no means of an elaborate character. Fine Irish lawn has been used and almost every article is trimmed with Valenciennes lace and insertions of cobwebby texture. Pink, pale blue, heliotrope, and straw- coloured baby ribbons are run through the lace, and the stitchery is of marvellous fineness. The initial M" and a crown are worked in satin stitch on all the linen, and on the handkerchiefs, many of which have been supplied by the Irish Distressed Ladies' Association, and worked in Ireland. From the same depot some lace, including a particularly pretty fuche of Irish point, has been obtained. .h One of the matinees made for Princess Maud is of cream China silk, tucked to fit the figure at the back, and finished with a white satin sash a full frill of needle run lace about the neck, wrists, and shoulders, and bordering the jacket. A second of forget-me-Dot blue silk is made with a large sailor collar of silk, set in with lace insertion, feather stitched and edged with lace. This has a series of tiny tucks at the waist, and a satin sash. The large bishop sleeves are completed by lace insertion and ruffles. A morning wrapper of white embroi- dered muslin has round the foot a gathered flounce edged with lace and a frill. The same lace is in- troduced to simulate a Zouave bodice with full basques. The deep collar is cut in large tabs, and ornamented with insertion and lace run through with mauve ribbons. A somewhat similar gar- ment, with a foot flounce. has a yoke composed of rims of lace insertion, brightened by the introduc- tion of narrowest pink satin ribbon. The yoke is set in by a lace frill, and there is a lace neck ruff. A dressing gown of dull geranium pink fine flannel is trimmed with some beautiful guipure, falling in points, with narrow tucks and ribbon on the yoke and cuffs, and there is a pretty side pocket, also tucked and covered with the guipure, and a piece of satin ribbon drawn along diagonally and gathered into a rosette. A coral pink flannel dressing gown is provided with a girdle of silk cord of the same tone, with tassels at the ends. The square cape collar is overlaid with beautifully embroidered muelin, cut in an open work pattern, and finished with fine guipure. There are embroidered muslin cuffs, with narrower guipure, and a smart little pocket trimmed to match, and round the foot is a flannel flounce gathered and pinked out at the edge. There are also kid shoes of the palest blue and red morocco leather. The millinery was ordered principally from Mrs Robert Heath and Mrs. Britten, and is very pretty, and includes a black rustic straw hat, in fancy sailor shape, trimmed round the crown with cream lace, gathered up p,t one side. On the opposite side hangt a black satin ribbon bow and white quills. A similar hat in white rustic straw is trimmed with cream lace and a white satin bow and quills. A black fancy straw hat. turned up at the side and back, is wreathed in lovely soft shaded pink roses, and has a cache-peigne" of black roses falling on the hair. The trimming is com- pleted by a fussy rosette of black tulle on the crown, and a tuft of black plumes. A toque of peacock-blue velvet has a draped crown, and is bordered with Russian sable, having at the side a group of quills, shaded to repeat the tones of the velvet and sable. A Tam o' Shanter of tan leather is trimmed with black velvet and natural quills. A black straw toque of a very charming pattern has a crinkled brim, lifted at the back, somewhat like the old-fashioned bounet curtain, and is there filled in with beautiful shaded roses. An upstand- ing bow of heliotrope ribbon in front, slightly to one side, completes the trimming. One of the most charming ball dresses in the Roval trosseau is in a delicate hue of primrose satin, with a lovely bodice, draped with bud-green net, worked over in groups of little natural-looking green currants mounted on silver. This drapery is drawn into a deep folded satin waistband, and the sleeves are to correspond. On the full demi-trained skirt a panel of the embroidered green net is .intro- duced, and is finished off at the foot with a large fancy bow. A clear sky-blue fancy silk gown is narrowly striped with white, and has a little white blossom brocaded at intervals, and forming a floral stripe set in between rows of the plain white lines. This is prettily arranged with tulle and lace. Very smart indeed is a mantle of rich Parma violet velvet embroidered in pretty pattern in let, and finished with a profusion of black pleated chiffon frills about the neck and shoulders. Another smart cape cf black moire mouvelle has the yoke encrusted with jet sequins on checked chiffon, the jet continued over the arms in points. The trimming consists of masses of Margot" lace about the neck, shoulders, and front. Mme. Duboc, of Clifford street, is re- sponsible for this dainty confection, and some equally chic tea and dressing gowns. A Louis XV. tea-own of fancy mousseline de soie, with bunches of pink roses, tied with blue ribbons on a cream ground, is mounted on cream taffatas glace, and ornamented with bowsof blue ribbon and three cascades of creamy lace in front, and over the shoulders an evening dress of geranium pink taffatas has the bodice drapery encrusted with pearls, silver, and choral, and finished by braces of pale-green velvet. Amongst the day gowns is one of navy blue serge, the skirt of which is narrow and gored. The bod.ee is an open Eton coat, the belt being finished off with gold clasps. On either side of the coat are three large pearl buttons, and with the costume will be worn a pink cambric skirt having a turned- down, collar edged with Valenciennes lace, and little frills down the front of the skirt to match. A smart coat and skirt are of small checked blue and white summer tweed, quite plainly made, with a rolled collar and plain bone buttons as sole ornament. A handsome gown of short black and green silk, with a black pin spot on it, has a waist- coat of rich cream-coloured brocade and sleeves10 black chiffon over green silk in a paler shade than that of the shot silk. The trimming consists of green sequin passementerie, which edges the tabbed epaulettes of green silk and the vest. There is a tiny vest of soft black chiffon and n collar of the same. A high belt of black satin completes the gown. The blouses are particularly stvlish and pretty, especially so being one of pale blue glace silk, flowered with rosebuds. This i a,, a vest cf fine white French lace and a black satin belt. The large collar is tabbed, and has points of lace in- sorted into it. The sleeves arc rucbed from waist to elbow, and have one single puff at the top of each. Several cotton skirts are made with box- pleated fronts, formed of embroidery, the pleats being bordered on either side with a frill of narrow A-alenciennes lace. Two or three of these models are of fine grass lawn. the centre pleat, collars, and cuffs being of fancy embroidered grass lawn. All the petticoats made for the Princess are of English silk, and are exceedingly pretty and novel, es- pecially those of plisse." On the material is a chene floral design, and the trimming consists of flounces of chiffon, each representing one of the colours shown in the design, such as, for instance, gray. pink. and blue. The uppermost flounce is lightly festocned, and is caught here and there with lirtle bows of lettnce green chiffon. Another English-made material employed for the petticoats is white crepon. having as ornamentation flounces of itself, into which bands of lace, either Valencien- nes or Torchon, are introduced. The wedding gown is of pure white English satin. with long train cleverly cut in one with the skirt. and trimmed at one corner with a full bow of Mousseline de Soie and orange blossoms, and a ruche of delicate fabric and flowers. the skirt hemmed at the front and sides. On the bodice the satin is drawn across the figure to a point at the left side under a bow of Mousseline de Soie. and cluster of orange blossoms, and on the back lines are carried downwards, terminating at the left side of the waist in a band of exquisite silver and diamond embroidery. The low. square decolletage is trimmed with folds of silk muslin, and trails of orange blossoms and billowy muslin. The sleeves are formed of water-fall-pnffs, with trails of flowers carried down each puff. The dress is eminently suited to the Princess. A lace veil and ornaments will be worn, and the many Orders which 1 lie bride is entitled to wear. The-going away gown will probably be pale blue- gray canvas, lined with pale blue and pink shot silk. The bodice has a deep folded belt of black satin falling in a little bow at the left side, and pointed revers of black satin edged with grass lawn guipure, and there is a vest and collar of blue and white glace chene silk flowered with pink roses. With this will be worn a burnt straw toque with puckered brim, into which are tucked clusters of soft shaded pink roses. The trimming is finished with full pink and white osprey at the back. The Duchess of Fife will also wear at the wedding a white bro- cade gown, made specially for her at Spitalfields, with design of ribbons and single roses, with birds and foliage. This will be trimmed with lace and silver. A gray silk waterproof cloak is fastened down the front with a double row of large smoked pearl buttons. The over cape—according to the latest fashion—does not quite meet in front, but allows the double breasted silk to show between as revers. This cloak has a turned down collar of black velvet. and a gray glace silk dust cloak, with pearl buttons to match, has the cape gathered in rather full pleats round a gray chiffcn neck ruff, held in the centre by a pinked ruche of the gray silk. -+-
