The Future OF wheat.

Before the fall of Paris. wheat c"ntin
nd steadily to advance I'LL II r ached
81 80 per busheI tor No 2. an then il
fell off 20 $l.20. aud has since risen ~
few cents. Now 1t is a question Of u"
little imp"riancs la the Northwest wheth
er tins, our staple commodity, will rise
ar fall
The Bulls argue that wheat must go
up. The Agricultural onerations of
Prussia and France. say they, have beer
well nigh suspended, while the actual
waste aud destruction have been immense.
They point To- the fact that the visible
supply of wheat in principal markets OF
thu Unit"d STATES aud Great Britain on
the lst of February, was about twenty
millions "f bushels, against twenty tiv-
millions year ago
The Bears on tie oi her hand, maintain
that wheat must go dn~n; that the SIP
pnsed wants nf the Continent have b eT
rxag Grated; that tho period following
war is one of depression, and that the
demands from France must he small t:
that the people being p"r will he Con
tent 10 use coarser and far cheaper grains
than wheat They further sssert nj
the supply which has been lock II up in
German pprts is ample to make good The
French deficiency. They represent thai
there are l60 more caIgoss of grain
nfi mt for Great Britain than at this iim''
last year. and that before manv months
We will begin To talk about new crop
Our readers en- probably think OF
more arguments than we have presented.
The Bulls. we doubt not. can furnish
nther strong proofs that the golden com
mo iity must go up; if Bears. they will
think you blind if you do not see that j,
mus, 60 down.
The question. however. is one Of great
Importance to the pockets Of orr farmers,
and We hope the price Of wheat may now
keep up, for certainly it hns been low
enough during the past year or two
The farmer paws high for sll he buys.
aud we think it time that he got good
price for What be sslls.-- Miraukss
