The WHEAT CRoP.-Our informa-
ton from the farmers in regard to the wheat crop
in this county, is very favorable. All unnite in
the opinion that appearances indicate more than
an average crop. In some of the northern counties
it is said to have been damaged to some extent,
but elsewhere throughout the State, reports are
very favorable.
In st. Joseph county, the Chronicle says that the
crop never looked more promising than at this
time.
The Lansing Republican says that in that section
the wheat has wintered well, and its appearance on
the ground is promising.
Speaking of the prospects for an abundant crop
of wheat, the Ann Arbor journal says: From
nearly all parts of the State we learn that the
growing wheat is promising. From the States
west of this the decided information that we have
is also favorable. A good wheat crop this year
will give the farmers big lift.'

The subscriber confidently offers the 'Eermont

turns can be made to the right or left without

in or out of gear by the spring.
/ 9TH. The knives never work when the machine
is backed
9th The cutter bar is attached to the frame BY
a double hinge JOINT. which allows it to follow the
surface Of the land without being affected by the
working Of the frame, over knobs. ridges and
through holiows. The independent action of the
cutters is perfect-either end of the bar raising
without affecting the other.
9TH The cutters are easily raised to pass ob-
structionS, by meals of the lever which is always
under the control of the operator.
Sth. \ spring is attached to the inside shoe by
means of chain connection, which greatly reduces
the surface draft and materially assists the opera
tor to raise the cutter bar.

passed by any other, and that it will commend
Itself to every candid farmr wishing to purchase
