good that is indicated III the article

The present condition of wheat
through out the country leads to the
belief, that the coming crop barring
accidents Of the most unexpected
sort, will be the largestever
ga b c 6 d. The great t
danger to be feared is from
a prolonged drought daring the early
summer, and that danger is largely
offset by the fact that the heavy fall
of rain and snow, IN all Of the lwheat

ground with water, SO that driving out
below the roots is not regarded as
