CHEAP BREAD.-The New York Jour
nal Of Commerce of the 18th, in conclud.
ing concise and careful review of the grain
prospect in this country aud Europe, says
that it may be concluded that the accidv nts
to the crop in Great Britain and France,
in view of prosperous and abundant har.
vests elsewhere, are not of consequence e.
nough to defeat the public expectation of
cheap bread during the season of 1915.
Last year not only England, but France,
Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Belgium,
Holland, and even some greater wheat ex-
porting countries, had to import. This year
their wants will all be supplied at home, and
OF the best or worst England will not need
to buy from US snyihing like the quantity
she has taken the expiring season.

PROLIFIC CALF oRNIA. According to
the late annual report of the Surveyor Cen
erOi OF California, the wheat crop of that
State for 1873 was &c, 6S2 1872 bushels, aud
OF barley, oats and corn, IL 1858 900 bush
ela, product largely in excess of that Of
any former year. From reports based on
estimates made for the San Francisco pro-
ducc Exchange, the wheat crop Of the State
for 1874 is put down at not less than S..
OOO,OOO bushels, and the harvest of oats
corn and barley at 100000 bus heels
The crops of wool and grapes will bo cor
rOspondingly increased, and the Indications
ore that the agricultural resources of tho
State will DO doubled in the next ten years.
These evidences of wealth are ct only
more reliable but more enduring than even
her wonderful gold resources.

just Issued, fatal case of poisoning by to.
bacco is mentioned. A boy on the I'm q.

His pupils were inseusitle to the light,
