age. II. CLARK, Simons, Ashtabula Co., O.
The prospects for crop of wheat is very good
in this section. This month will tell the
story-W. /. GRINNELL, Wildare, Trumbull

per cent. below that Of last year. A good deal
of the wheat was killed just after it had been
sown last Fall.-JoHN JOHNSTON, Portage,
Wood Co., o.
In this part Of the Willamette Valley, owing
to dry Fall, the acreage sowu is small, COM
pared with previous years, but the outlook is
very favorable for good yield as the Winter
has been very conducive to the growth OF
wheat. This is what might be termed the gar
den spot of the Pacific Coast for all small grains

The present prospect of Winter wheat in East
Huntington Township is far below one year
ago; fully 80 per cent. below an average pros
pect. A few fields look about average, but
many fields have seemingly nothing very
little left. Some farmers talking of blowing
some of poorest fields for Spring crops of corn
or oats. Wheat selling for 81 corn, 60 cents;
oats. 45 cents.-M. P. SOONER, Stoner's West
moreland Co., Pa.
Wheat was injured very much through Oc-
tober by the fly, and came up very uneven, on
account of the hot dry weather. In fact, some
fields had to he resown. 1t is thin on the
ground, small. and full of fly. Although the
Winter was an open one, with very littlesno
yet it seemed to better the condition of the
wheat. The acreage is about the same as last
year, but the yield will be 80 per cent below
LEVI FULK, N. D., New Kingston, Cumber
land Co., Pa.
The condition of the growing wheat in east
eru Pennsylvania looks good. but not as favor
able az last year. We had the largest wheat
crop last year that we have had for several
years. think we will have three-fourths of
last years crop.-A. w. Koch, Center Valley,
