are sorry for the manufacturing lords of
Britain. They have used cheap fuel and
labor to crush out the budding industries
of other countries. Ireland they have des-
troyed, and India, and Turkey. American
industries they have kept in continual
ferment. Coal is the modem king, and

MINNESOTA WHEAT YIELD FOR 1872.

MINNESOTA WHEAT YIELD FOX 1872.
The entire wheat product of Minnesota
for the last year is computed at twenty-five
millions of bushels. Of this, sixteen mil
lions Of bushels were shipped to Chicago,
Milwaukee, St. Louis, aud the head of Lake
Superior, leaving still IN the hands of Min
nesota farmers, the large amount of nine
million bushels. Two-thirds of this is be-
ing used for home consumption, and the
seed of this years harvest.
Let Us glance ahead very few years,
and on a moderate calculation we find the
expectation Of Minnesota wheat alone must
soon amount to nearly fifty millions; and
in one decade without doubt, to a round
hundred millions. Add to this the certain
development of the vast Red River and
Saskatchewan wheat fields within the next
the dozen will be demanded on the Bay of
Superior. And capitalists can foresee the
same thing. There is money in the prodi-
gious transfer business 10 grow up at the
head of this Lake, and it will attract in
vestments just as surely as the Northern
Pacific Road and its branches extend west
ward, and steady tide of immigration fol-
lows it. We know the road is certain to
be built; we know that immigration is GER
tain to follow it; we know that wheat farm
ing will be pursued by the majority; we
know that this wheat will come to the head
of Lake Superior, and as the Northern Pa
cifc Road has put us on an e4lfq3 footing
it'll Duluth, as regards all commercial IA
ciIities, we know that capital will soon be-
gin to be strongly attracted toward us, and
build up fourishing young commercial
city at this point.

THE ST. CR0LY GRANT TO BE DISPOSED
or BY C0NPR0KLSES--4 DECISION
NUsT CONE SOON
From the dispatches in yesterdays Press
We CLEAN few items concerning saint
Croix" matters. -Four select committees
reported: That on the North Wisconsin
'smade brief but forcible report lin the
Senatel assigning strong reasons for its
passage"
Com on Chicago 81 Northern air line
bill "submitted an elaborate report in its
favor with an amendment"
Com on State COMMISSIONER bill was
granted til Monday to report.
Com. on Milwaukee bill obtained one
days extension of time.
The dispatch proceeds:
The North Wisconsin bill thus having precedence of
all Others Mr. Barron gave notice in order that there
might be occasion for motions TO postpone on ac-
count of absence of members that when IT came up in
its regular order its friends would insist its coHsid
GRAFTON and action thereon soon possible. Tn
less the time occupied by previous orders of bust
ness and special orders, which is quite likely, the bill
will come up morrow. 1t is understood that COM
promise has been made with other interests which
renders the friends Of the bill quite sanguine of its
passage.
The Senate railroad committee has agreed report
an amendment giving the land on the line from Supe-
rior the Junction of the Northern line to Bayfield,,
TO the Chicago, Superior and Northern Pacific rail-
road Co.
II will be observed that compromises, ac-
tual and probable c, are now the order Of the
day, in reference to the Saint Croix grant.
We have thought it would eventually come
to this The result for Us is uncertain, yet
Iong-sutfering Superior ought to and we
trust will be remembered.

WISCONSIN NEwsPAPERs.-The Popular
Science Monthly thus notices the indca-
tons of growth in our state: "The state of
Wisconsin is but just of age, having emerg-
ed from its territorial infancy and entered
upon its sovereignty only twenty-five years
ago. This is but a short period in the life
time of an independent political commu-
nifty, We. much has been done within that
perlod to give the state an impulse in the
direction of civilized development. Taking
journalism as standard, the number OF
newspapers printed IL Wisconsin in 1870
was no less than l34-of which six were
monthly, / semi monthly, IA daily and
weekly, and l5a weekly" It is gratifying
to have our western growth in literary ways
so f1atteringIy recognized by one Of the
leading journals of the land. a number OF
new journals and periodicals have lately
been AIDED to the list, in Milwaukee and
elsewhere, SO that the total viii figure up
much higher now than in 1870.

IFHOLES4LE LNNIGRATTON.


Foruey's Press quotes, and comments on
the London Globe, in reference to emigra-
ton to this country as follows;
''Last year 400, 900 foreigners were land
ed at the different seapoTts, or, in other
words, l II every 95 Of the whole popula-
ton Of the Union was at the end of the
wear a stranger. The labor and capital val
ues represented by these arrivals are i'm
mense 1t is calculated that, on an aver
age. each of the emigrants brings with him
about Sits. BY this means alone $4,000,
600 in solid cash gold and silver, was adj
ded to the wealth of this country. Ameri-
cans who have q turn for calculation put
down the number Of useful workers at 80,
OOa. and the value Of each ablebOdied unit
$3.50 to 1925. Thus, in one year, $4,000,
600 are added to the industrial resources
and for the purposes of taxation to the rev
enue Of the country. The life value Of each
emigrant being regarded as quite 1880
one years emigration represents the stu
pend0us sum Of $500, 900, 600. " This whole
sale emigration does more. The industrial
capacity of the new corners employed in
the eight great food producing States of the
west (Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan,
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, and Missouri)
is bringing much land into profitable cult
vation and in short time Will so increase
its cereal produce as to reduce the price OF
bread at home, which regulates all other
prices, and underselI foreign countries in
their own markets.

How THE FARMERS OF ILLINOIS ARE Dome
WE have the authority Of Mr.. =. M.Smith
SscretaIy " the State Farmers Association Of
Illinois, for the following:
d The majority OF the farmers Of this State
have hard work TO support their families. Yeai
by year new mortgages are given to pay new
debts, and It Is the exception rather than the
rule for farmer to be saving anything. Al
lees. ono-half of the fsrms In this part Of the
State are mortgaged for money borrowed at IT,
per cent. interest," and the majority OF them will
never be redeemed. Yet let IL be known that

SALE OF LoTs.-J. II. Head will sell at pub
lie sale OH Saturday, the goth inst, at three
O'Clock, p. NJ, thirty eight building lots situa.
ted oil Lombard, Shearna and Tenth and
Eleventh streets, being part Of the Hilles pro-
perry. Houses are needed In that section, and
the price Of lots must rapidly advance. Any
one having money to invest will be certain to
realize a. hondsome dividend by purchasing one
or more of them. Mechanics and worklngmen
who have shares In loan associations, and have
not yet secured houses Of their own, should not
delay taking the preparatory steps towards do
ing so. Every year land Is becoming more yalu-
bile, and eligible sites more difficult to procure.
The great majority who have purchased have
made money by doing so, and others may profit
by their example. Every man should own the
house he lives In, as then he has the benefit OF
Improvements and the advance in value of pro-
perty. For particulars see advertisement.

EFFECT OF MANURE ON WEEDs.-fhe ap-
plicatien Of manures suited TO particular kinds
of cultivated plants appears to have an efficient
effect In checking the growth Of weeds, which
would otherwise prove injurious. In regard 10
clover, 1t was found that when the land was
wholly unmanured the weeds formed 81 per
cent. Of the entire yield; but the application Of
gypsum reduced the proportion Of weeds to two
per cent. heterogeneous manures had very slight
effect, and phosphate manures but little more
We must not from this, however, consider gyp.
sum as an antid0te to weeds In general, since II
Is specific manure for clover, and gives 1t q
power to struggle successfully with the weeds
and crowd them out.
