ing States l'ast is twenty pe." cent, below la't
year, while acreage shows slight increase.
Oats are plenty and command high figur'S,
though a trifle weaker than they hare been.
Potatoes arc plenty, but prices do i.et ad
vance. It H p.obible tho supply will con
tinue sullicient for home use and that pricts
will in t justify shipment to California.
Hay has Lien at a high price all through
the country as well as her'', lie crop was
light lai seaion and tho country has been
slu.it of its requirements.
Kjrgs hate been firm at 25c.
Dairy products are appreciated; good and
choice butter brings a high price for this
sraFon of Uo ear.
The wool matket r.ma'ns very uncertain.
Eastern mauulacturcrs are trying to prevent
any improvement and buy only as their I. ceils
compel them. W. C. Houston & Co., Phila
delphia, send us thi ir wool circular for April
1st. Th' y rep it quotations the tame, hut
actual prices toftiinug. Stocks are every
where reduced, etpecia'ly of desirable grades.
All wool on baud should be maiketed before
new wool commences to come in. The new
tariff liai had only nominal effect on the
market, and does not account for the present
dullness. Tho new tirilfgoes into effect July
ltt. They remark as follows :
As a largo potcentago of the clip of the
country is purchased prior to July 1st, but
sold after that date, it is of the greatest im
portance to buyers to base their calculations
on how the market will rule when the force
of the new tirilfis felt. In our opinion the
ultimate result must be to decrease the price
of wool in accordance with the reductions
made in the tariff by tho new bill and this,
in round figures, U abiut three cents per
pound on foreign wool competing with Ohio,
Michigin anil nunilar washed tine lleiccs, and
all other grades will sympathise. Coarse
JNew Alexiein, suitahlo fur carpet purposes,
will be affected about one per cent, per
pound. On Colotado, Kansas and similar
stock the effect v ill I e in keeping with the
reduction on tine washed fleeces.

Messrs. Batchilor &, Wjlie:
Gents: I'll ten-lout cut Spring tm th Harrow I bought of
vour agent lat Fall I consider the b i-t implement ever used
on a farm in thn Hhap- of a ciiiti tutor or t arrow. I have used
mine in all vtuy, ii th in old, hard ground and in new sod,
and find it a pei fi ct success. It is a complete cover for grain,
and will cultivata ground not plowed for two seasoiiM, from
four to six inc m ilteji. A farmer has no use tor any other
harrow or cmtiviitor. This is after eight months' use of this
cultivator. V rt Respectfully,

TiiuiLsiiAV, April 12, 188X
Tho weather has bom disagreeabl-), but ha.
twnulicd any fe.i.' that our legion ttuuhl nut
have tho full ipinntity of spriiif.-rain. 'I he
unprecedented nintlier of Kebruaiy and
March made everything start freely and vege
tation is earlier than uoinmon, fully a mouth,
though the fold, rainy weather of April will
hold it in check, perhaps fortunately. Kast
of tho Cafcadea farmers enjoy enougl r.nu to
take tpring crops glow tigorously. l'ros
pceta for crops aio as favorable as could be
desired in all directions. In all the Weatirn
country thu resutvu wheat fields are up and
making good growth. The heavy rains have
filled tho earth and with a few growing
bowers in May and Juno everything will
nature finely,
.Some appiehension ia felt as to tho fruit
crop, as the orchards bloomed freely a month
early, but the preacnt rainy and cloudy
weather prevents frosts and if tte reaoh May
we cau hope to see gr. at fruitage. Orchards
are pining out of bio in and showing young
fruit aet thukly.
Faruurs h.ivo impiovod the good weather
in March to put in oropa no generally that
tlioy will have all spring grain sown in good
soiaon, except on ttet prairie, like Freucb
Vialrlo and nine parta of I.itiu county, when
the recent rains have drenched the land.
The wheat market ii dull and any close
quotitlon is Impossible. As tte have lately
stated, every locality lias its own rates baaed
u milling uetkla. Yet tte hear of a cargo of
fheat and tlour to bo shipped to l.iterpool.
Foreign adtieea shutv a stronger demand, but
there ia little tthcut left hero to be sent to
foreigu markets. On Wednesday ouc bun
tired tons of good wheat wa oll'ered in this
city at 91. &1 p.r cental and not taken. A
well posted dealer aa)a tho wheat market cau
hardly improve because the mills gvuerally
are well supplied with wheat to grind, and
tbe stock of tlour and wheat in hand of nulla
i lulhcieiit to carry tins region through until
kartint, bcanlco which farmers still hold an
oukiifluu quantity .it liome.
There is probability that wheat crept, all
Ti-r the woild, or at least ill Europe ami
America, will be below average. The winter
was severe in Europe, ami the tirmnras in
English market is very likely due to the
know ledge of that fact. We publish di.

THE CALIFORNIA SPRING TOOTH FLOAT HARROW
Is superior to ,v,v other of this class owing to the tetth being attached to the lower side of the frame and thereby raisin? the frame from the ground and also gives a longer tooth r.j
more elasticity, making it more durable and bitter adapted to general work.
