September Crop Report.
The ayorage rainfall in the State in
August did not exceed three-fourths of
an inch, or two inches less than the
usual amount in this month. In July
there was a deficiency of one and three-
fourths inches. There was a very
light rain throughout the State July
20, but none from that date to Sept. 1.
With a drouth thus practically unbroken during the two principal crop growing months of July and August, it is
not difficult to estimate the condition
of crops. They are dried up. Corn,
potatoes and garden truck are damaged
beyond recovery, the yield will he but
a small per cent of an average, and
pastures afford little or no feed for
stock. The fact that in a few localities
rain has been somewhat more abundant and crops are consequently slightly
better, does not disprove the general
statement.
There is little doubt that wheat will
be fed to stock the coming winter. We
hope to have estimates soon of the proportion of the crop. One miller writes
us that he has already ground fifteen
hundred bushels for feed.
Threshers returns of more than 68,
000 acres of wheat threshed, secured
hy correspondents, show that the average yield per acre in the State is 16.65
bushels. The average in the southern
counties is 16.78 bushels, in the central 16.20 bushels, and in the northern
13.95 bushels.
The total number of bushels of wheat
reported marketed by farmers since
the August report was published }§
952,803. Of this amount §046$) bushels were marketed, b.efp.re August 1, but
not reported u^tU late in August, and
64§,123, b,ushels were mar.ke^eci in, August. The total an-pun,! r^o.vted, -fflar^
keted in ^he tw-elye jn.Qnth,s. ending
with July, ^UiQh js the wheat year for
Michigan, is J5,45,Q,958 bushels.
Th,e amount of wheat reported mar-
keted §i«ee tfee August report was published, 9a2,§Qa hushels, is 293,066 bushels less than reported for the same
time in 1893.

owing to large purchases.
We were in New York daring the "'low ebb" and made large pur-
phases at the lowest prices known in the Dry Goods niarket for years.
It is our intention to do a large part of the Dry Goods and Carpet
business of Washtenaw county this fall, and if Super assortments in every department, and prices lower than you have eyer dreamed of, influence trade, the results will certainly be satisfactory to us.
