Diseouragtng Crop Reports. Nav York Trihuua

The crop reports of the Department of Agriculture are discouraging. With the best possible weather from now to har- vest time, the wheat will fall considera- bly, short of that of last year. The acre. age sOwn to spring wheat fell off to 88 per cent f-that of 1880, by reason, no doubt, of the low prices last fall aud win ter, and the winter wheat yield is likely to be seriously reduced by weevil in the West and cold weather in California. An increase of one per cent in the area cultivated to cotton is reported, but is likely to be more than counterbalanced by the poor condition of the crop. Spec ulators who are calculating on promul- gation of the conditions which made the past year one of such great prosperity, must revise their estimates in one respect, for our export trade in grain and cotton will show a marked decline.
