• Saturday, Nov. 12, 1887. 
Reports of excessively dry weather still con¬ 
tinue from the winter wheat region. The 
solid roads have greatly facilitated the mar¬ 
keting of crops and Jive stock. In most of the 
West it is thought that a very large propor¬ 
tion of the hay crop will be consumed by Jan¬ 
uary 1. Immense quantities of hay are being 
shipped out of one part of the country where 
there is a surplus into another where there isa 
shortage. Hogs are moving freely. The last 
00 days have been very favorable for fatten¬ 
ing, and the excellent prices have caused large 
receipts at the chief packing centers. There 
are many local reports of hog cholera, but the 
disease as yet, appears to be less prevalent 
than usual at this season of the year. Very 
full report- from the spring wheat belt go to 
show that tall plowing was very generally 
neglected in October, and the time was em¬ 
ployed m thrashing and marketing the wheat. 
The ground is now either frozen or too dry to 
plow. There must necessarily be a very large 
proportion of the acreage to go over and take 
its chances lor being prepared for spring seed¬ 
ing in the coming March, 
Thk Department of Agriculture s report for 
October puts the yield of corn at 19.0 bushels 
per acre on about 73.000,11!K) acres, or 1,453,000,- 
000 bushels. About 5,000,000 acres are reported 
as abandoned before ripening. On the acre¬ 
age planted the average would be 18.0 bushels 
per acre, the same as in 1881, The corn sur¬ 
plus States average slightly less than iu 1881, 
the 31 other States more. The final record 
will be changed only bv slight adjustment. 
All acreage is counted that was allowed to 
ripen a crop, however small. The average of 
some of the States of larger production are as 
follows: New York, 35 bushels; Pennsylvania, 
.32; Maryland, 27; Virginia, 17.5; North Caro- 
ina. bi t: Georgia. 11; Texas, 17; Tennessee, 
21.5; Kentucky, 18.3; Ohio, 27; Michigan and 
Indiana, 20; Illinois, 19; Iowa, 25; Missouri, 
32; Kansas, 12; Nebraska, 24; Dakota, 30. 
The quality of the cro$> is much lower than 
usual in the dry region, and the proportion of 
merchantable corn is considerably below the 
average. 
The potato yield has been reduced, first by 
drought in the West and later by rot, mainly 
in the Atlantic States. It is about the same 
as iu 1881, or 54 bushels average per acre, 
making a crop of about 134,000,000, against 
163.000,000 bushels last year. The yield is 60 
bushels iu New York, 55 iu Pennsylvania, 30 
in Ohio, 34 111 Miehigan 33 in Indiana and Illi¬ 
nois, tso in Minnesota. 55 in Iowa, Go in Mis¬ 
souri, 59 in Kansas, 7u in Nebraska and 115 iu 
Dakota. 
The tobacco yield per acre is very low iuthe 
shipping and cutting leaf licit, especially iu 
the West. The average reported per acre is: 
For Maryland, o:-;s pounds; Virginia, GOu; 
North Carolina, 4X5; Arkansas. 530; Tennes¬ 
see, 430; Kentucky, 505; Ohio, 615. For cut¬ 
ting aod cigar leaf: Indiana, 397; Illinois, 
403. On the acreage reported in the August 
investigation, this will make scarcely a third 
of a crop. The yield of the cigar leaf is nearly 
normal. 
The picking of cotton has progressed rapid¬ 
ly and the harvest is already closed except in 
the soils which have resisted by the adverse in¬ 
ti tunces of the season. The October condition 
indicated a yield per acre three or furn - per 
cent, less than last year, with nearly one per 
cent increase of area. The returns of yield in 
fractions or a bale are less than last year iu 
about the same ratio, while the original re¬ 
turns o I yield, per acre, in pounds are nearly 
the same as those ot last November. The re¬ 
sult in fractions of u bale indicate a crop of 
about 6,309,009 bales on an acreage of about 
18,64U,UU0, or 33,8 ot a bale per acre. The rate 
byXiiatesis: Virginia, 32 hundredths, North 
Carolina, 88; South Carolina, 36; Georgia, 
29.5; Florida, 26; Alabama, 28.7; Mississippi, 
38.2; Louisiana, 43.8; Texas, 33; Arkansas, 38: 
Tennessee, 31. 
It’s a long time siuce the Cotton Exchange 
here was so excited as Thursday; the advance 
in prices was the biggest in any day iu the 
last five years. Within the week the advance 
was nine-tenths of a cent per pound over all 
months, of which half a cent, a pound was 
011 Thursday. The report of the Department 
of Agriculture putting the total crop at 0,300,- 
000 bales, considerably less than was ex¬ 
pected, caused the advance. 
Sir J. B. Easvos, in his annual letter to Bell’s 
Weekly Messenger, estimates the British 
wheat yield of lXs7 at 67,584,300 bushels, from 
2,383,524 acres. But he deducts this year two 
bushels, instead of his usual 2 V bushels, pel¬ 
ade for the seeding, bringing out as the result 
a total of rather less Mum 04,000,000 bushels 
avatiuble tor consumption. Taking the esti¬ 
mated consumption per head of the population 
at 3.65 bushels, he makes the requirement for 
the cui rei 1 year 211,259,080 bushels, of which 
about 148,000,990 bushels have to be supplied 
by stocks and imports. 
The November repo. t of the Ontario (Can¬ 
ada) Bureau of Industries is just out. it 
states that the yield of tall wheat is 14,440,611 
bushels, being 3,630,531 bushels less tbau last 
year and 5,102,003 bushels less than the aver¬ 
age yield of six years. Spring wheat may be 
set down as a general failure. It is estimated 
that the yield is 5,633,117 bushels, against 
9,518,553 last year and 9,713,879 for the aver¬ 
age of six years. The barley crop suffered 
scarcely any damage from discoloration, but 
the yield per acre is less than that of any bar¬ 
ley crop of the last six years. The total pro¬ 
duct is 17,144,830 bushels, being 2,377.448 less 
than last year and 2,031,588 bushels less than 
the average of six years. The oat crop is be¬ 
low the average in yield, the estimated pro¬ 
duct being 49,848.107 bushels, against 58,665,- 
C08 last year. The estimated yield of peas is 
12,173,332 bushels,’against 16,043,734 last year. 
According to F.uropean reports there will 
be an average crop of clover seed of good 
quality In England. Continental reports, 
including Russia, Denmark, Germany, France 
and Italy, speak of average crops of well 
ripened seed. Our American crop is some¬ 
what short, having been injured by the 
drought, and the quality is a trifle interior. 
There will hardly be enough for home con¬ 
sumption. 
Summaries of Bradstreet’s telegraphic re¬ 
ports: Domestic consumption of wheat is ag¬ 
gregating about 6.900,000 bushels weekly. 
Western receipts, including flour, are heavy, 
being 5,009,000 bushels ahead of last season to 
date, and exports, both coasts, while very 
large siuce July 1, are declining rapidly, being 
for the season to November 41. as specially re¬ 
ported to Bradstreet’s, 38,788,000 bushels, in¬ 
cluding flour. This amounts to nearly oue- 
balf the probable available export surplus in 
19 weeks, 36 per ceut. of the crop year. If 
the early mouths of 1888 do not briug blight 
wheat harvest prospects in Australia and 
India, with the heavy American exports 
promised prior to that date.theoutlook will lie 
for a material advance in nrices. Spring- 
wheat plowing is backward. Total exports 
of wheat and flour this week, both coasts, ag¬ 
gregate less tbau 1,200,000 bushels, against 
1,800,000 bushels last week. 
The hog packing from March 1 to October 
31. 1887, in the packing States has aggregated 
0.035,265 hogs, against 5,044,003 hogs the cor¬ 
responding period m 1886, being a gain this 
year over last of 991,262 hogs. Chicago pack¬ 
ing has in the same time been diminished from 
2,581,752 hogs in 1886 to 2,007,000 hogsiu 1887, 
being a decrease ot 574,752 hogs. This, per¬ 
haps, is attributable to the establishment on 
more permanent basis of packing at Omaha 
and other trans-Mississippi towns and cities. 
The increase iu packing at Omaha this year 
over last is 540,071, or about what Chicago 
has lost. The movement of pork, lard aud 
bacon abroad has been fairly active, though 
largely arising from direct through shipments. 
The froverument report of the corn crop 
caused an upward movement in hog products 
both here and at Chicago. The advance for 
the week has been about 20 points, being 10 to 
15 points better following the report on corn. 
At Louisville, Ky., leaf tobacco continues 
in very active general demaud, with prices 
still iu sellers’ favor for all grades, the buy¬ 
ing is strong especially for burley, aud the 
whole market is gradually advancing still 
further. At St. Louis tobacco is in fair move¬ 
ment at private sale.
