Agricultural and Domestic Prospects of the Wheat Crop
The Ohio Farmer notes a dry fall and cold winter with a gloomy outlook for wheat across much of the country. While Michigan, Wisconsin, and parts of Illinois report favorable conditions, most areas expect scarce and dear wheat. Farmers are urged to plant other cereals generously and to diversify with corn, rye, barley, oats, potatoes, turnips, beets, and carrots to offset possible losses. If a wheat crop fails, plowing the foul field for corn can salvage the year’s land use.
