CONDITION OF THE GRAIN CROPS.
WASHINGTON, November 3.-The digest
Of the crop returns for October, prepared
by the Agricultural Department, indicates
a reduction in the wheat crop of nearly one
sixth, while the quality is somewhat SUI
perior. Every section of the Union indi-
Gates reduced crop except the Middle
States, which increased about two per cent.
The South Atlantic states fell off two per
cent, the Gulf States twenty-seven per cent,
and the southern inland States eight per cent.
The figures point to a total yield OF 2t5, 900,
900 bushels. The rye crop is four per cent. be-
low last year, with somewhat better quality.
The barley crop is six per cent. below last
year, except in Georgia, where 1t equals
last year. The corn crop in the South At
lantic States, especially near the coast, sui
fered from the September storms. Mary
land and South Carolina are full average,
Georgia largely above, but the deficiency in
Virginia and North Carolina cut down the
general condition of this section to two per
cent. below the average.
