The spring was cold, wet, cheerless, and grasshoppereal, in the extreme, and the portents for harvests have been fearfully impropitious; but all has been banished by hot sunlight, and the dampness has destroyed the grasshoppers, and the prospects for an abundant harvest are most gratifying. Wheat has been sown in great breadth, feel safe to say, Nebraska will raise two acres of wheat this year where one was raised in '66, and all over the state the land sown to wheat has been doubled; with every indication of an extraordinary crop of that wheat which stands as the highest standard of the St. Louis market "Nebraska A-l." Oats are flourishing, and promise the usual Nebraska crop of from 40 to 90 bushels to the acre. Corn is backward. but will come on with great rapidity and make an average crop unless early fall frosts should strike it before maturity. Potatoes have been planted in larger quantities in Otoe County than ever before since its settlement.
