| Russia--Both North and South had a de-

ports were 10,000,000 bu short during the
navigation season of 1872. Exports aud
stocks small at Odessa, Taganrog, and Ros-

export
AuStralia-Is expected to have considerable
surplus wheat for export.

good, though IN some localities there was
damage by rust. Weight SO and 62 BIS; color
good.
Austria and her ProuinceS- The Upper and
Lower Provinces had only middling crops,
damaged by drought and mildew, but wheat
was the best among the cereal crops. In GAL
licia and Buckewina wheat was very deficient
Rye mnch worse; both damaged By rust and
blight. Galiacia will require to import rye
from Moravia, Silesia, and Stettin. In Bo-
hemia and Morayia wheat was about an aver
age In Hungary, only per cent. good, %
per cent. middling, 80 per cent. bad, ont of
1882 reports of the condition f the crop. Rye
deficient. but very much better than wheat.
In Moldava and Wallachie wheat suffered
more less from drought, which st in in May
and lasted over blooming time. In n1oldavia
sixteen districts produced 232, 602, go itres of
wheat, of which liz, 679 6OS lters can be export
ed. WaIlachia produced 29I 900, 600 litres of
wheat, of which 81. goo 600 can be exported.
The crop in Algeria was better than in 1871
in quantity and quality.
France has imported at Marseillcs s.acv
Aug. /, 1872, 1,2l7 600 metrica quintals of
wheat Of 220k lbs each, against z, G27 730 me-
trical quintals of wheat for the corresponding
time i'll 1871. The exports from France since
the harvest to Nov. 80 were about 10, 600. 900
bus; and retaining prudent normal stocks,
abiding the result of the harvest of 1873, may
have $4,000, 600 bus Of wheat Tor export, to be
divided between Belgium, Holland, SwtZer-
land, and the United Kingdom. Belgium us
ually imports from twelve to fifteen million
bus of wheat.
The foregoing gives a cursory view OF the
condition of the wheat crop throughout the
wheat producing countries of the world
