Winona (Minn.) Rezublican, A Republicann reporter had the pleasure of meeting, on Friday evening, Gen. George T’ Delaplaine, of Madison, Wis, who bhas been making a thorough trip through the Northwest during the past two weeks for the special ob- Ject of ascertalniug the coudition and prospects e o derived his iv- formation from the leading millers, grain deal- ers, and pxtensive farmers, and has theretore 4 very reliable knowledge of the situation. From ucareful survey of the different sec- tiona of Minncsota, Gen. Delaplaine estimates thut the yield of wheat this year will be 62 per cent of what would bea fair crop. In some places the yield goes below one-half; in others, two-thirdsj so that the estimute shove pgiven s fair averuge. Iu conversation “with Mr, J. D, treen, of Furibuult, an extensive miller, u very intelligent and ful observer, and & man whose slutements be relied upon, Gen. Delaplaine gave his own'estle wates, which Mr. Green thought tberal enough judging from his own inquiry of furmers, und the kuowledge of the crop thut he bad been able to obtain. Mr. J. A, Christian, of Miuneapoils, snother well-known and heavy mitler, had tmade extended inquiries, aud places the yield at two- thivds an average crop, 'Fhe acresge is lurger, and will, to some extent, moke up tor the geti- ciency, Mr, Mellen, of the firm ot Couk, Mel- len & Hurlburt, of Rochester, largely engazed in milling und grain operations, thinks that the yleld wiil go ] wirthirds the averago crop —not 1o A 4 that,—cousiders Geu. Delu- lal imates very falr, and thinks results will s2aw fttobe so. Threshing hascommenced in somne loculitics, and thoss who havo threshed are disappoluted in the ylold, The berry s small, and does not measurc up to expoctations. Looking for the cause of the light crop it s believed that sonte of the causes were within the control of the farmers and some were not. Tho small size of the berry is uttributable in many justances to poor and fmperfect seed. Gen. Delaplaine clted a notable instance, A fariner bad two flelds sown near Delano, one from his own seed and the other frow sced ob- tained farther north, where it was entlrely free from the lato rains fust larvest. The result ls thut the wheat from this sved [s k)h.nup. full, and perfect, while the other {8 suull, shrunken, and stunted. It 18 a well-scitled fact that s vigorous growth cannot be obtained from secd in'which the germ bas once sturted, Lowever slightly, In the previous sesson. Similar in- stances to the one avoye might be wmeutioned in Winona County, In which the ficlds of grain from diffcrent secd show tho same lifizul cant differenco In the {lcld. This cause, let it be smphldullfl ropeated, s within the cuntrol of farmers, and werita thelr careful consideration. A great mauny Belds look green instead of yel- Jow after the gralu has becn cut, showing that the weeds wero not killed in the fall, but lay dormant in the ground and sprouted with the qgn)n. choking It aud retarding fts growth, his cause, of coursc, was not within the con- trol of the farmers. There is manifestly s great improvement as to stackivg, snd for this the farmers ars to be comnended. They lLave profited by their ex- perlence of last year, and are taking good care of their grain. They will have it in shape to stand a bard slego o wet weatber should it come during the fall. From the obaervations made by Gen, Dels-, plalue, the barvest muy safcly be suid to be ractically ended, and, with favorable weather for o few dsys looger, the grain will be sate. Home of the automatic biuders have beenw gratitylug success, aod the workiug of uearly all the different patents (o the tleld has been such a8 to encoursge fuventors to rehewed ef- forts to the attalowent of the desired gbject.
