Michigan's Crop Conditions.
Lansing, Mich., March 10. The March crop report says the weathei last month was favorable for wheat, there being sufficient snow throughout the month to afford the plant fair protection. Two-thirds of the 600 correspondents report that wheat suffered no injury from any cause. The total number of bushels of wheat reported marketed in the seven months, August to February, is 6,707,118, which is 1,299,500 bushels less than reported marketed in the same months last year. Live stock is in good condition. Considering the short hay crop, stock is wintering remarkably well.
