Judge Babbitt took a trip out into the country some fifteen or more miles south east of Ypsilanti Thursday, and ie is now telling some pretty fair stories ibout the crops. He says that corn is the biggest erop he ever saw. The stalks stand up high, and almost every one has two ears on it. Meadows are ooking well again. And potatoes and eans are fine, excellent. Apples we re poor, but other fall fruits were plentiul, peaehes, plums and pears giving vidence of an immense yield. ïhe Judge said he went over the ,G00 acre farm of Daniel Quirk, of Ypsilanti, and tliat he never saw one n nicer condition. Everything is tidy nd clean; there is hardly a weed to be ound on the entire place. There are ight large, nice tenant dwellings on tie farm, and they are all kept up in he same nianner. "It is well worth a rip down there to see tliis farm, and he admirable nianner in which it is onducted," said the Judge. ''These late rains have done a surprising amouut of good, continued he, and flelds, especially of corn, that bid fair to be complete failures, are now indicating a wonderful yield. Oh, we mok always come out all right in the end, if we only have patience. It doesn't pay to worry over tilinga we can't help." m
