crop Of 1,75O.0Oo,0OO, co~ntrasted with L.
$50, 100000 last year and over 100000
GOO bushels in the immense yield OK two
seasons previous. But unless abundant
rains prevail throughout the orn belt in
August, followed by mild weather. pro-
auctions may shrink to 1,60O,O0o,0W
bushels, and may even drop to the size
OF the 1890 crop. when we harvested less
than any year for a decade, with a single
exception. The review points out that
while the breadth of corr is some 2,000,-
900 OF acres greater than last year, in the
seven corn supply states, over 100000
less acres are devoted to maize than was
the case two years ago.
The wheat outturn will not exceed
443,000,000 bushels, according to the
American Agriculturalist's own report
and its interpretations on government
returns, compared to 6l4.000,0M as
the average for the two past seasons, and
40O,000,O00 bushels in 1890. Nearly go.
100000 less acres were devoted to wheat
thao last year, and the bulk OF this de-
grease was in the surplus states, which
bid fair to have 100000 fewer bushels
than last year, aud l25,0OO,0N under
surplus states product Of 1891.
Available supplies Of old wheat are
100000 bushels greater than twelve
months since, but even allowing that
farmers also hold 100000 bushels
more old wheat now than then, the total
supplies for the ensuing year are only
$4,000 900 or 100000 less than the
average two previous crops. Our home
consumption has averaged 365,0O0,0OO
bushels annually, leaving an apparent
export surplus Of 135.OO0.OO0 bushels,
against exports last year Of 192,0O0,O00
and the season before of DDS, 100000.
OATS, sMALLGRAIHs N HAY.
This years acreage OF oats was never
exceeded, except in 1889, when over
750,0O0,o00 bushels were grown on 81
10000 acres, compared with ~62o,O00,00O
on a slightly smaller acreage this season.
This is within 100000 bushels OF last
years outturp, and Just about an average
OF the previous three crops.
The usual quantity OF rye, buckwheat
and barley will be %garnered.

LOVES SEASON.

In sad sweet days when hectic Pushes
Burn red ON maple and sumac leaf.
When sorrowful winds wall through the PUSHES.
And all things whisper of loss and grief,
When close and closer bold Frost approaches
\ To snatch the blossom from Natures breast.
When night forever on day en~croaches-
Oh, then I think that / love you besti
And yet when winter. that tyrant master.
Has buried autumn In walls of snow,
And bound and fettered where bold Frost cast
her
Lies outraged Nature in helpless woe;
When all earth's pleasures in four walls center,
And side by side in the snug home nest.
We list the tempest that cannot enter.
Oh. then | say that I love You best,
But later on, >when the siren season
Betrays tho trust OF the seniie kies,
And glad earth laughs at the oct of treason,
And winter dies in the arms OF spring;
When BIDS ard BIRDS all push and futter
To free fair Nati.r 70 SO long oppressed.
I! thrill with feelings I caInot utter.
And then / am certain / love you best.
But when In spiendor the quecn.y summer
Heiyas over the earth and the skies above.
When Nature kneeis to the royal conner,
And evea the sun Earaes hot with love;
When pleasure tasks IA the luscious weather.
And care Les out on the sward t. rest
Oh. whether apart O. whether tcgathe-,
1t ia then know that I love you best!

Why not put it this way? A certain
proportion Of the people is in favor OF
unlimited free coinage, which would
ultimately mean a silver basis--Mitchell
Republican, %.
The reason 1T would not do to put it
that way is because it would not be
true, Bro. WheeIock. That certain
proportion of the people" is in favor of
an honest dollar be it silver or gold and
you cannot get it by the truculent
methods of the sbimetaliists." 1t does
not mean silver basis half SO much as
''bimetallism" means a single gold stand
ard Of which the country says we have
had enough. Better settle this thing right
when you are at it and this will never be
done until you make the silver as good
as the gold dollar and give it the same
rights and privileges. This is free coin
z and bemetallism pure and simple
but il is not the .'bimetallism" of Pres.-
dent Cleveland and his ilk.
