THE RISE IN WHEAT. 
WILL IT BENEFIT FARMERS ? 
The high price paid for wheat will help, per¬ 
haps, 30 per cent of the farmers. As thrashing 
began in July, a great many sold at once, for 
from 38 to 44 cents per bushel. Wheat is now 60 
eents, so the farmer will lose quite a sum. Most 
of the wheat is now sold or contracted for at the 
advance price. I know of very few in my town¬ 
ship who have wheat yet to sell. Wheat did not 
make, on an average per acre, more than nine 
bushels this year. w. c. m. 
Runnymede, Kan. 
Perhaps 50 per cent of the wheat has been sold, 
and likely one-half of the remainder will go on 
the market this fall. Not many large growers 
here. From 50 to 300 or 300 bushels is the most 
common crop here, and most of it is disposed of 
in a retail way. I am disappointed in Carman 
No. 3 potato. It yielded only two-thirds as much 
as State of Maine. I had just one row through 
the field, and it had an equal chance so far as I 
could see. My Carman No. 1 did fully as well as 
State of Maine. ,r. u. r. 
Smock, Pa. 
Two-thirds of our wheat crop was sold from 
the machine at from 34 to 42 cents per bushel, the 
most of it at 38 cents. After the rise, very little 
was sold; it came at a time when farmers were 
busy seeding, consequently could not haul to 
market. There is no money, so to speak, in the 
country; the bulk of the grain sold for very little 
above the cost of production, and what was left 
went towards paying unpaid taxes and interest 
on mortgages. There were plenty of foreclosures 
for want of money to meet liabilities. Our county 
is considered a wheat-growing county. From 
the amount of wheat gone out at low figures, and 
the amount on hand, I doubt whether there will 
be wheat enough left for home consumption, and 
money to meet forthcoming taxes. a. e. 
Rice County, Kan. 
As all business interests in this strictly agri¬ 
cultural section of the State depend on the suc¬ 
cess or failure of the farmer, the higher price 
paid for wheat will benefit alike the farmer and 
business man. The local market ojiened, this sea¬ 
son, at 35 cents per bush., and gradually advanced 
to 50 cents about the middle of October; during 
that time, about half the crop of this township 
was sold. The other half, or 25,000 bushels, has 
been held until after election, in the hope that 
better prices would be obtained. To-day, Novem¬ 
ber 9, the price is 60 cents, a rise of 25 cents per 
bushel over the opening price, or $6,250 in the 
pockets of the farmers of this township on the 
half of the crop still held. h. c. w. 
Forestburgh, S. D. 
The first rise in prices benefited the farmer but 
very little, as there was but little wheat sold, ex¬ 
cept such as was already stored in elevators or 
mill. Most farmers who were ready to sell when 
the rise came, were then holding for still higher 
figures, but sold freely after it commenced to 
drop. It is estimated that about 40 to 45 per cent, 
of the crop is unsold in farmers’ hands, but part 
of that may be in storage in some elevator or 
mill. I cannot give any estimate of the extra 
money that came into this township, but it was 
very light. Most of the farmers are situated so 
that they have to sell all their wheat as soon as 
thrashed: some of them on account of lack of 
room, haul direct from the field to town, as most 
of the bills for machinery, twine and similar ex¬ 
penses are due from October 1 to 15. Artesian- 
well irrigation has not amounted to much the 
past two seasons in this township. One reason 
is, a normal rainfall; a second is, lack of means 
with which to get it started. One or two of the 
parties who have sunk such wells have had the 
misfortune to have the wells clogged witli sand ; 
but they will, no doubt, open them as soon as 
they can provide the necessary means to do so. a

Daily Press, New York. 
Many farmers now like a daily newspaper, in 
order to be well informed on news through 
out the country. The Press is one of the 
brightest New York Dailies. It is Republican 
in politics and a strong advocate of protec¬ 
tion. We can send it daily, and The R. N.-Y., 
weekly, both one year for $ 3 .

No other daily paper ever made so great a 
success in so short a time as the Journal. It 
gives all the news, and is one of the brightest 
and ablest papers of the Metropolis. It is 
Democratic in politics, and an able expounder 
of free silver. We can send it and The 
R. N.-Y., both one year, for $3.50. 
The Atlanta Constitution. 
This is the great national weekly of the South. 
It has, probably, done more for the South than 
any other paper has ever done for any part 
of the Union, and, naturally enough, the 
people in the South believe in it and go by it. 
But besides its devotion to the interests of the 
South, it gives all the news of all the world 
every week, and is a great family paper. It 
abounds in stories, fiction, romance, wit and 
humor, fun and puzzles. It is Democratic in 
politics, and a great exponent of Democratic 
principles. It gives 12 pages—84 columns— 
of reading matter every week, and all for 
only $1 a year. We are able to send it and 
The R. N.-Y., both one year, for $1.75.
