Crops in Iowa.
DEs MONIES, Aug Q, 1862.
Editor Hupkeye:-I herewith send
" you a proof slip Of my Circular in regard
c to crops for publication:
II Very respectfully yours,
q WM. DUANE WILSON.
, Below We give an abstract Of Mr..
Wilson's estimate Of the crops, &c, in
e this State for the present year:
. WHEAT.
1 Acres, 1861, 800, 900; average yield,
II bushels per acre; total yield 1850
600 bushels. Acres this year 1,6OO,-
: 900; average yield eleven bushels for
Spring, and 20 bushels for ~is,ey. The
estimate for this year will be as follows:
1905 900 acres Spring wheat,
at II bushels per acre, Ii, SOC, 900
100, 900 acres Winter wheat,
at 20 bushels per acre, 1900, 900
Total in bushels, 1s,5OO,Ooo
Mr. Wilson thinks the truth will make
the total bearer q, 600, 900 bushels, most
of which will be for eAF OFT, as he thinks
there is enough within the State to sup.
ply home wants to the next harvest.
CORN
This crop, he says, never looked finer
or promised SO rich product. One
month more as seasonablc weather as We
have recently had will, he thinks, make
the average yield sixty bushels - she
acre. The increase Of acres in corn this
wear over 1861, he estimates at twenty
i've per cent. In 1861 the number Of
acres was 100000. To be within
bounds he only adds $4,000 acres, max
inc for 1862, total of ], $4,000 acres.
If tho season continues favorable the
Weld NAV safely be estimated at fifty
| bnsbels per acre, making an aggregate OF
1920, 900 bushels, and 10000 900 il
excess Of 1861. The yield may react
.hc enormous amount Of 100000, 900
bushels.
