The Wheat Report.

WASHINGTON, July l2.-Prof. Dodge,
statistican Of the agricultural depart
ment, says concerning various estimates
made from his last report on the wheat
crop, that though the average condition
OF spring wheat on the first day of July
was sc, it fell to sc ut the time of the
harvest, which is only three points high
err than the present condition, and rep
resents the loss Of less than G,OOO, 900
bushels as compared with the result of
last years harvest. There is great risk
OF further damage during July and Au-
gust, but that already reported means
only a loss of 5000, 900 bushels in spring
wheat and 100000 IN winter wheat, or
a total loss Of II, 1000: 600 bushels of wheat
during the month of June.

A Protest.

Editor Inter- Ocean: l have been en-
couraged to make this protest by the
complaints of a large majority of the
farmers around Devils Lake, and l have
no doubt the sentiment is unanimous

against the course of the merchants of
Devils Lake in shipping in such large
quantities Of farm products from Mime

the same, or better article. of the farm
ers of Ramsey county.
The following dialogue will be recos-
nized,.I think, by every farmer who
has taken butter, eggs, potatoes. etc.. to
Devils Lake for sale:
Customer-What are you paying for
butter today? l brought in Il Jar of
nice butter.
Merchant-I don't think | want any
butter today, ] just got in two hun.
dred pounds and ! don't think ! can
handle any more at present.
Customer-Do you know what ii is
worth?
Merchant-Butteri is very cheap to-day
1t has gone down three cents since Mon.
day. ! don't think you can get more
than a shilling in trade.
And small wonder either, when near
lily every merchant in the town has
shipped in from two to four hundred
pounds, and they pursue the same poll.
cy in regard to all farm products: where
as we all know the farmers tributary to
Devils Lake are able to supply Tor Il,
least very nearly supply all ordinary
farm produce for the trade of Devil.
Lake.
How would the merchants of Devils
Lake like it if the farmers OF Ramsey
county boycott them, and send to Min
neapolis. and st. Paul and buy thei,
merchandise by Wholesale? That is pre-,
cisely what n large number are deter
mined to do. and if an effort should ht
made to organize them for that purpos,
the merchants Of Devils Lake woulr
loose u goodly sum thereby. What.

in the near future, to some point south OF
Columbus-the people Of Leon county
and Tallahassee must assist in its con-
struction, by granting the right OF way,
and by subscriptions of land, money, &C.,
and we believe they will do this if they
are called upon in due season.
Who will ask them to thus aid in Sc
curing rail connection North and West !?
We think that the Railroad Trustees, ap-
pointed by meeting of citizens held at
the Mayors Office about year ago, are
the proper persons to take hold OF this
matter and push it to speedy success,
and we trust they will do so.
At any rate, we will venture to advise
the people of Leon county and Tallahas-
see to consider this matter seriously, and
be prepared to subscribe promptly and
literally when called upon in the interest
of an enterprise which, if secured, prom
ises so much for the future of our county,
and city. If this road is built to Talla-
hassee it will pass through the northeast
section of Gadsden county, section OF
fertile lands and industrious and success
full farmers, who would doubtless gladly
join their neighbors of Leon in an effort
to secure the road, as they would also
share in the benefits of enhanced value OF
property and increased transportation IA
cilities.
Now is the time to act. Delay will be
hazardous to our interests. Let this op-
portunity pass without securing the bene-
fits it offers and it will be long time ere
we have another so desirable and 80 easily
turned to the permanent advantage OF
both county and city. Without this road
we will drag along after fashlon-a' de-
plorable fashion, too, waiting, hoping for
something to turn to our advantage with
out an effort on our part; begin the work
of constructing this road, and new era
of progress and prosperity will dawn upon
our county and city, and even before it is
completed the boom that the enterprise
will have inaugurated will be pleasant
surprise to us, and our fertile and pic:ur-
esque hill country and charmingly attrac-
tive city of magnificent hills will rapidly
increase in population, new industries will
spring into existence here and there, and
a prosperity and contentment we never
dreamed of will lave come to inspire US
with new hopes and new desires. To this
end let all pull together-a quick pull, a
strong pull, and We will secure the prize.
