Oliver Dalrymple, the great wheat
grower OF Minnesota. says he is by
no means discouraged at the low
price of wheat. He will sow 1900
acres next spring, the ground for
which is already plowed. He sold
nearly his entire crop the present

over for better prices, which he is
confident will prevail before the next
harvest.
