For those who neglect to rectify irregu-
larities OF the stomach, liver and bowels,
which they foolishly imagine will
come right OF themselves" OF this
silly error such persons are usually disa-
bused by the development of some Sc
rious chronic malady, traceable to what
they were pleased to consider trifing
disorder OF the above named associate
organs. such elimination is easily
avoided. A course of IIostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters invariably has the effect of
renewing the seoretive action of II
torpid liver, restoring healthy digestion
and assimilation, and rendering the
habit OF body perfectly regular. The ac-

THE WHEAT CRoP.-1he injury to the
winter wheat crop is greater than appear
ances indicated on the first of April. The
roots were killed in the Central belt even
worse than was supposed In New York
the snow protection was ample, except in
spots; and in Michigan no material injury
occurred. But in the Ohio Valley and in
Missouri, reports of condition are much
reduced. In the south slight improve.
ment in the prospect has occurred. The
average of condition in the principal wheat
growing States is as follows: New York,
95 Michigan, 100 OHIO, SO; Kentucky,
45 Indiana, 70; Illinois, AZ; Missouri, 10;
Kansas, 60. The general average is 10, i'll
stead of II in April, a reduction of nine
per cent, reducing the indicated produc.
ton of wheat to about two hundred and
forty million bushels The condition OF
rye is also lower than reported in April, ye
much better than wheat the average being
&c. The average condition of winter bar
ley is 80. The moving lands promise
nearly average crop of hay, the average Of
condition being 92. Pastures look nearly
as well; condition 80. withstanding
the fact that the report from the Agrlcul-
tural Bureau respecting the condition and
prospects of the crop of winter wheat
throughout the country is so uDpromising,
it Is by no means to be taken as discourage
ing. Just twenty years ago, in 1865, the
winter wheat in middle latitudes was blast
ed in the bloom by the extremely hot April
weather of that year, so that the final yield
was not considered to be really worth har
vesting. Prices were at that time low, as
they are now; but in the interval to the
next crop, or, in the summer of 1866, wheat
brought 81 bushel and flour from $lS to
1922 per barrel. We even imported wheat
from Liverpool to supply our necessary
wants. Our people may have forgotten all
about this. Shipments from the Pacific
coasts were likewise diverted to the Allan
tic ports. There can be no such deficiency
this year.
