WAeat.-A good quantity Of wheat has been
bsught in this market the past week. and from
the best information we cano btain, has amount.
ed to about 10000 bushels, at prices ranging
from 40 to so cents according to quality. The
shipments for the same time, $4,000. Consid-
cradle wheat is now going to Milwaukee from
this point.
We hear unfavorable reports from the coun.
ties west in relation to the new crop. as well as
from southern Indiana and Illinois, but being
accustomed to the same every year and still
having an abundant yield, We do not fear q
scarcity.
We can get along If the harvest is light this
season, as enough old wheat remains for anoth-
er year.
