escaping into an old wooden drain,

SOUTH AUSTRALIA NEWS.

The wheat harvest, which has just
been gathered in, has been a good
one-above the average yield-and
leaving many millions Of bushels as
a surplus for expectation, but the
very low prices ruling have caused
the farmers to hold back their pro-
duce from market, producing de-
pressed effect on the financial con-
dition of the province. The future
for the wheat-growers looks gloomy,
yet they do not seem to give their
attention to anything else; they
seem to hope against hope that :" the
good old tines will return. The
price of copper, too, in the English
market being unprecedentedly low,
our mining population are passing
under dark cloud. Only the richest
mines are being worked, and in those
no work is done except that which
will yield an immediate return; in
fact, there are many mines Chat
would yield handsome profit if
copper were about f70 per tony that
are now untouched. The wool
grower appears to be the only man
that smiles.
