about one-tenth Of the wheat product Of the
State in the past, with an area Of acres un-

100000 bushels. This statement viii give
some idea Of the CAPACITY of the rest to5 the
State. "A large portion of our territory
cast of the Mississippi river better
adapted to grazing is also smaller amount
on the west side; but from our knowledge
of the State, we consider ourselves under
the mark when we Jay that the wheat area
of our State is good for an annual average
excess of the cereal over home demand Of
$4,000, 600 bushels. probably 1O0, 100000
would be nearer the truth The produc.
of 1872 was q. 100000; this year { 1873

our State can sec that our estimate is q
reasonable one.
