CROP PROSPECTS.

at has now become fixed fact that are to
have more than an average crop Of whest 10 Western
Michigan Tire crop Is safe beyond al pera iyen-
ture "a far insects or ght concerned. He'vy
rains might njure It yet, but nobody fears rain nos"
a letter from Iowa dated July 49, speaks IN glow
ing terms of the ~nea. crop. 1t says also:
eve have mot splendid prospect for crops Of all
kinds except wheat aud Of that there vii be plenty
ard 10 spare. Corn, grass, oats, potatoes and
Vegetables Vck most promising.
The Canada wheat crop Is reported unusually e1-
celent, and letter from Toronto, July IS, says:
Farmers are in the midst Of harvest, AMI they gen
"eraly have excellent weather, and the latest wheat
I" is past danger.
H. Chicago wheat and corn appear to be of about
the same value THIS Is owing TO the poor corn crop
last season and the good wheat crop this The quality
in IliLos az pears to be NEST universally good.
The corn crop now growing does not promise wei
at present Its growth is small and the weather is
altogether too cold and has been throughout tue first
three week. OF July for this crop. Although it has
good, healthy appearance it cannot mature generally
in this latitude unless have hot August, aad no
frost till after the fret week in October
The hay crop in this vicinity is undoubtedly light.
Pastures are in good condition, and the present
weather excellent for the dairy interest.
