favorable view that We can take. Holland Portugal
and Switzerland always have dehcits those coun-
tries like Great Britain land OF late
years Germany never raising enough wheat tor
their home consumption
In Morocco dreadful famine has lasted since 1877; ;
in Egypt a famine has existed since 1878. and in AL
geria the crops of the last two years have pre-
vented the shipment of any supplies to France. 1t
may be said substantially Of all Northern Africa that
1t Is in condition OF famine that no supplies OF
grain are to be expected from that quarter OF the
world.
SOURCES SUPPLY. &C.
The chief sources OF supply, besides the United
States. are Russia and Roumania. Iu the first named
country the wheat requirement is about 10000. 900
bushels and the average crop 800 0b0 0O0 of which
considerable portion tof the spring wheat is fed to
cattle. For over fifteen years the exports have
aged about $4,000 006 bushels. Last year the fields
were much neglected account OF the war; yet the
is well stocked with wheat This year. however. the
grasshopper has accomplished great havoc in Bess-
arabia. Ekaterinsav. Taurida Don Cossack, Savator
and Astrachan and 1t is difficult to believe that the
crop will not suffer to the extent OF least ten per
cent When remember that in years OF late
Russia has failed to produce so much as 100000 900
bushels of wheat 1t appears to be liberal estimate
ON present advices to accord her 200 bushels
for the current years crop.
In Roumauia the weather has been splendid, and.
despite the ravages of war and tho lingering bat
talions of Russian troops to remind the inhabitants
of their recent losses the wheat crop will exceed the
average of the best years. estimate the crop this
year il Wullachia and Modavia ut 900 bushels.
Throwing all this data and some other together We
garied as an exposition Of the wheat crop of the
world. according to the latest mail and telegraphc
adyices chiefly the latter received up to date the
figures representing millions:-

IOCal. ,OJU l,O4U 20 20
While have every to regard this table as a
correct exposition Of the worlds crop and future
wheat movement at the present moment, it is to be
remembered that the harvest Is not over yet; that
from some countries tho telegraphic advices have
been rather meagre, and that both the requirement
and surplus deficit of country depend much
upon the rye and other grain crops which. though
they are herein considered, not shown in the
table, For these the details may have to be
somewhat modified. But the general result can,
think be depended upon for substantial correctness.
This is that the wheat deficit will, during the har-
225 bushels, and that the United States will
be called upon to supply two-thirds Of it, or say
150,000.OOO bushels.
1t may now be asked If this demand is likely to
SO strain resources that prices will advance.
think it will. California has full crop, but tom
mage is scarce ut San Francisco. Stocks are
short in Europe. and the distance is very great.
Our trans Mississippi crop is very large; but in
transfer the trans Mississippi surplus to Europe
will require good many trains OF cars and take
short people hungry and wheat must advance.
Still, this conclusion Is subject to many objec.
tions.. When wheat advances in price the other
cereal grains are resorted to for food in Europe;
and when the supplies of grain are short the
people fall back upon beans, peas and other Leg
umes and potatoes. In France and Italy th,y
eat chestnuts in many Of the rural sections: in
Portugal and Spain they consume fruits. chiefly figs
and grapes. and sometimes live upon st. Johns
bread; in most of the southern countries scant,
farinaceous diet is eked out with wines in all parts
of Europe beef and mutton are much more common
now than they were Ave years ago. 1t is dangerous
to base commercial conclusions on the appearance
of the wheat crop alone. The question OF feeding
the world has become too comprehensive one for
ready reckoning. For several years past the French
wheat speculators the best-informed and shrewdest
operators in the world, have been regularly dsap.
pointed and have lost heavily. The recent rise IN
the French rentes prove to my mind that the cur.
rent wheat calculations made in Paris precudespll
fears of a scarcity of its concomeant, phenoin-
enally high prices Moreover, the worlds stock OF
currency is stationary. while it's population and
commerce are increasing another reason for dis
trusting rise of prices.
Bearing these considerations in mind. it may be
stated briefly that according to present appearances
this years wheat crop of the world will amount to
about 1540.000 900 bushels that this will create
deficiency in certain countries of about 225 100000
bushels. and that this deficiency will be made good
by purchases from certain other countries in about
the following proportions The United States.
900; Russia, 10000 900; Roumania 20 900.
and Canada, Australia and India. 50U0.0U0 bushels.

THE GREAT WHEAT CROP.

Mr.. Alexander Dclmar, writing to the Chicago
Times from ogden. Utah. July 20. says
At this point gets far west the line of the
wheat plant ne until he descends the Pacific
slope. My journeys lately along the line OF tho
Union and Central Pacific examining mines and
ndvces which appear from day to day in newspapers
that obtains ut every station on the line. enable
me TO draw rough outline, even at this early
mert, of tho wheat crop of the world notice that
very much-a weekly sheet. pub
lshcd in New York, estimates the European deficit at
bOOOO,0O0 bushels, and that a New York daily con-
graduates our country upon its superabu crop
Of wheat. These views are misleading. do not
believe that we have throughout the whole United
States 81, 600 900 wheat, and from what
have OF the plant this year foo confident that
1t will not average ~ bushels TO the In many
parts of tho Western States IL will not average 3
bushels, and in Southern California 1t will fall even
below this average. We shall probably have full
CROP but not superaOundant one, for il | read
Alright, every bushel that spare will be needed
abroad. estimate the crop at 900 OOO. 900 bushels
Instead OF deficit of 5O,OO0,O0O bushels in Europe
think the gross deficit will equal 2250OO.OO0 and
tho deficit will amount to 15000O,UVO BUSH
els. In the United Kingdom alone tho dehcit will
amount to 1l0.OO0.OOO bushels more. Tho con-
sumption is 200.OO000O and the crop will hardly
equal 10000 600. The weather has continued wet
long that all hope of saving the wheat crop been
abandoned.
Besides the United Kingdom there will also be de.
icits In France and Italy. In the north of France
the weather; like that in England, has been cold and
damp and in the valley OF the Rhono. in tho south
eastern portion of the Republic, several OF tho
af1iucnts OF that great river have overhowed their
banks and submerged the grain fields. In Italy the
Po, Mincio, Oglio and Adige have all overowed, and
Mantua aud much of the surrounding country has
been flooded The wheat harvest in Germany has
also proved somewhat unfavorable The deficit OF
10. 900 900 bushels whc.i have computed for that
country assumes. however, that the crop will be
nearly equal to the average, which. according to the
latest teicRraphic advces, appears to be the most
