We have had one of the coolest and
most backward springs ever knew. The
weather is very beautiful at present, and
things look lovely, but the winter was
very severe in this part.
The wheat crop in this section was
injured to some extent by the hard freez-

more than halfa crop in this district.

The weather continues cold, but rs
spring advances the prospect for a wheat
crop seems to grow more favorable,
Fields of wheat that were thought to be
badly damaged, from appearances now,
are none the worse for the freeze. But
that We are to have no fruit is a conceded
fact; apples, peaches, pears and cherries
are uxurics that will have to be dispcns-
ed with this year.
Farmers are very backward with their
.p~ing work, a great many still rolling
and burning logs oil the ground which
they intend to plant in corn.
Money is scarce. and rs this is the
only commodity that will make the
mare 90, It may be naturally inferred
that times are hard However, we live
with the hope that there is better time
coming in the near future.

The demand for America wheat abroad
will, of course, depend in great measure
upon the crops of that grain in Europe.
Ifthey are abundant the supply to be
forwarded will be limited; il short, more
will be needed. As yet enough facts
have not been developed to show the *
ac,lcondition of the crops in England ard
on the Continent, In both France and
England the season has been cold and
backward, but the appearance OF the
wheat fields at the latest advices from the
latter country gives assurance that the
crop of 1875 will be fully up to, if not a
trife in advance OF that OF 1874. The
Black Sea wheat region of Russia is yet
to be heard from and also portions OF
Hungary Whether the demand for
wheat is great or small. VIC can meet it,
and that is the point Of the deepest home
interest.
