crate the tendency toa rise In the
western markets beyond a legitimate
advance, and it was this premature
that IN turn brought about spas
modic decline. So long as these re.
prehensible practices continue there
is sure to be more or less demoraliza-
ton Of the market manifested by
sudden and exaggerated advances,
which react to produce a decline.
These circumstances, however, do
not affect the real value of wheat
for consumption. In general ad-
vance of prices and an unusual for.
eign demand for American bread
stuffs (Which extends to the contin:
ent as well as England), the farmers
are certain to get good prices for
their wheat, unless the railroads
adopt a policy Of confiscation. It is
only the menace of constantly in.
creasing railroad freights during the
winter which seriously threatens to
retard a steady, gradualincrease in
the actual value of wheat in the
west; and, if the railroad corpora
tions should adopt such policy, it
might not benefit them, though it
should injure western farmers aud
shippers and eastern and European
consumers, for there would than be
a general struggle to keep the wheat
in the West till the opening of
navigation in the spring.

Visitors to the exposition will be
we'll repaid for their trouble if they
will pause for a few moments at the
south end Of the gallery and inspect
the very large display of grain,
fruit and wool collected along the
line of the Winona and St. Peter
Railroad. The display of corn is
scarcely excelled by the finest corn
ever produced inIllinois or elsewhere.
AS for wheat, their samples bear out
the assertion that this is the finest
wheat.growing country on the
American continent. There is also
in their exhibit specimens of barley,
rye, fax and Chinese sugar.cane;
the latter is said to be successfully
cultivated, and the yield is abund-
ant of the finest quality.
The influx of immigration during
the year 1873 warrants the suppose.
tion that before long this covered
by the Winona and St. Peter land
grant will be the home of as happy
and prosperous a people as can any
where be found; a busy, thrifty life
will crowd the prairies which until
recently have rested in undisturbed
solitude. All who will may partici-
pate~in the coming prosperity, and
there own efforts will be cheerfully
and amply supported by the COM
pany offering these lands for sale.

THE WHEAT MARKET.
The Recent Excitement. Cause of
the Sharp Advance and the Break
Which Followed,

Chicago Tribune.
It may be that the advance in
wheat during the last two weeks has
been too precipitate. The chief cause
for that is to be sought in the reck-
less and dishonorable course of GER
tain commission men in the sea-
board cities. The practice of ''sell.
ing Short in the western markets
has been condemned in unmeasured
terms, but it is not nearly 50 repre-.
hensible as the same practice in the
east when short sales are made to
buyers in Europe. Spectators here
are accountable under the rules of
the board Of trade and under the
State laws; but the, men in New
York who sell short to men in Liver.
pool and London count upon evad-
ing their responsibility if the mar.
ket go against them. There are two
ways in which these eastern specu.
]ators operate under the guise of
commission men, viz:
l. They agree to deliver to Eng.
lish buyers at a certain date GER
tain quantity of wheat at price
somewhat lower than the ruling
market race; if they are able to buy
in the wheat before the date OF de-.
livery they carry out their agreement
if not, then they fail to deliver and
also escape the damages which they
would he obliged to pay upon similar
contracts made with residents of
this country.
2. They will agree to deliver in
England at margin below the rul-
ing rate, and actually buy in this
country at loss Of, say, .one.fourth
Of a cent a bushel; they hold their
purchase pending the date at which
they have agreed to deliver, and if
there be amaterial rise in the mean.
time they will sell out again to A.
merican buyers and leave the Eng.
lish buyers III the lurch. If, on the
other hand, there be material de.
cline in price pending the date fo1
delivery, they Will ship their pur.
chase as they agreed, and come out
Of the transaction at an insignifi.
cant loss. Sales for future delivery
abroad are thus made merely to Gov.
er q loss.
These two practices Of certain
eastern spectators exert the most
demoralizing influence upon the le.
gitilnate op erations il the western
markets. The recent fluctuations
| in wheat denote the effect, Of such
