The GRAIN CRop OF lS5S.-The Prairie Farmer
gives the following estimate of the grain crop In
the Northwestern States
After careful examination of the whole sui
ject We have come to this conclusion that of the
wheat crop Of 1865, Illinois will not export more
than six million bushels-perhaps far lsss that
Iowa will export less tn an one million bushels
perhaps less than half million; that Wisconsin
will export not more than three fftbs as much as
OF the crop of 1857; that Indiana will export ia
about the same proportion as Wisconsin; and that
there will be falling of in Ohio of at least three
millions of bushels. Bear in mind, cffer these
very high estimates. continuance of bad
weather may reduce the amount for export to
almost nothing. At present the quantity is vast
ing at the rate of many thousand bushels per day.
How much old wheat there is yet in the country
do not know, but the quantity is Ger taniy less
crop will somewhat affect the price of wheat. bat
there is possibility of its being average yield
