"A great deal ,rop news, no called,

'coptiuues to come TO us IRON various
speculative grain Centers nj the west, the
real value OF which can only be determined
by keeping In view the exirencies as well
as the ingenious devices OF the PROFESSIONAL
operators at the exchanges. The bulls on
wheat naturally encourage the impression
that there is to he u heavy shortage com
pared with last year, and when they have
worked tho market for all
that 1t il worth on that
basis, II will be astonishing to see, when
their interests are In the other direction
how wonderfully the aspect Of things In
the wheat belt will improve, and how
numerous and emphatic will be their depre
cations of the published exaggcrations on
the authority OF this or that body earlier II
the season.
~ thin the past few DAYS we notice ouI
old friends the bugs and worms have
been made to do duty again in some quar-
ters and to figure in startling headlines in
the sensational journals. In due time, We
dare say, tho not less inevitable 'weevil'
will turn up also, bringing in his train, II
need be, the grasshopper, the locust, the
caterpillar, etc.

reliability and reports that arc apparently
colored for speculative effect"
National and state agricultural bureaus
may have their use tor final results when u
crop is made, but for reliable and quick re-
ports of the prospects of growing crop the
private information OF leading grain deal
ers beats the government institutions ont
of sight. When wheat drops to cents IN
~ many days, and other grain correspond
ingly, II may be taken, and no mistake
made, that the outlook is Improving and
that operators have later and more positlv,
information than the government bureau
officials.
The American expectation of breadstuili
this year to foreign ports is 80 far ahead o
the exports for IA corresponding period las
