another very fine crop of wheat, and our opinion
based on the following reasons The early win
pr was very mild SO much SO that the late sown
wheat, Of which there is much, continued to grow
III a much later date than usual When cold
weather came, it came in earnest, and she has he'd
Il nrm grasp upon the soil, for seven long weeks
Il god portion of which time the ground was COW
tr-1 with snow which are considered favorable
lrrumsiances for winter wheat. The danger to
4e wheat crop if any, is therefore in the future
and tie fact of such uninterrupted cold Gather for
long period, and until so late date, augurs an
interrupted spring time when it comes so that
NJ md no circumstances in the past or prospec-
ye oHes in the future, unfavorablet to the wheat
rup. Such are our impressions in reference to
be prospective crop. The number of acres put
n wheat last fall was very much greater than ev-
- before in this part of the country"
The Peoria Press estimates the quantity of grain
store in that city at near 100000 bushels and
.4ys -
Add to this the grain stored in the Rouse along
aa lues Of the railroads, belonging to our dealers,
and the amount will not fall short of half million
bushels. Compared to previous years, these fig
rrs almost incredible but the story is not yet
la told The country is still filed with grain,
and every day the receipts are increasing We
presume there is not a town i'll Central Illinois,
nJr between Chicago and St Louis, that can show
4 good record of their winter transactions as
Peoria"
The Chicago Journal of Monday, says: We
uus' have large crops next fall The snow which
as lalen during the past six days is equal to five
aches Of manure. People capable of estimating
matters, imsgine that the wheat crop of 1856 will
'r the largest ever harvested in this country. To
e''imate the value of the snow now upon the
.'"and at ten million Of dollars would be low
