Wheat does not Pat jn Iowa.-Mt. Du, NE Wilson 

 Secretary of the Iowa Agricultural Society, estimates the 

 yield of wheat in that State the past year at 12 bushels 

 per acre. The price obtained is 40 cents per bushel, or 

 $4.80 per acre. He thinks this involves a loss of $2 per 

 -re, or about three millions of dollars for the whole 

 State! He thinks the farmers of the Northwestern 

 States can not afford to raise wheat, except for home con- 

 sumption. 



The great crop of the west is corn. Iowa produced 

 ast year, estimating the yield at. 35 bushels per acre 

 which is 10 bushels less than in 1860), over fifty-two mil- 

 lion bushels. This Mr. W. thinks will fatten over 

 *8>000,00U wort h of beef and pork, even at the present 

 OW prices, so that, Mr. W. says, no one need suppose 

 that farming does not pay in Iowa. He estimates that 

 over a million dollars worth of sorghum syrup and sugar 

 was raised in the State last year. 



A todng farmer asked an old Scotchman for advice in 

 his pursuit. He told him what had been the secret of his 

 own success in farming, and concluded with the following
