TEE INCOMING WHEAT
CROP.

y or the laSt lew Wee8S We nave Deou
on the lookout for intelligence Of the new
wheat crop For this purpose, besides
personal inquiry, we havo addressed let
ters to reliable men fhroughont the
wheat region. The substance Of the in
telligence gained we give below:
NJ. LEE, living between STARK and Co.
lumbiana counties, says he thinks the
usual quantity Is in crop, and that this
looks, unusually we'll, aa the snow 10
going off
II. J. Cox, tMsmber o. 8. B. Al Of
Muskingum Co., says:
at have made inquiry of several Of
our farmers who have been attending
the courtnow in session, and from them
and my own observation have come to
the conclusion,
1st. That there is not probably by ona-
eighth, as much ground in wheat a. there
is in general. This is owing to the fact
that the drouth of the past autumn
made it almost impossible to break up
Z
sod ground, and as a censequeHc mostof
the ground now IN wheat was either stub
BILE or corn ground, which win probably
not yield with usual season, more than
three.fourths that sod ground would.
I'd. / incline to think the appearance
of the wheat crop is as good as an aver
/ ace, ut this season ef the year. The
winter has been much more equal m the
temperature OF the air than usuai,-ths
ground having remained frozen for sex.
eral weeks IN suecess'on' embracing s,me
before ana SINCE feDuary' a coAsse%
able portion OF that time the Snow aiae
protect the growing crop
Another circumstances greatly IN a.
vor of the crop, is the fact that the frost
has almost entirely got out Of the cult
vated fields without rains, which uanal-
ly cause the surface to.slip Of when the
irest Is pus PARTIALLY out of the ground.
