and are now planting and preparing
to plant corn Fully AZ much v heat
has been sown this season as usual,
notwithstanding the uncommon late
ness OF Spring and the discouraging
state Of the weather in April This
is doubtless owing to the steady ad~
vance, during the month past, ia the
price Of wheat, and the gradual de-
cline, on the other hand, IN corn aad
