CHICAGO, June 10.-Widely extended
crop reports received by the Farmers. Re
uis,u show that no material change has
been noted in winter wheat since last re.
port, except that the general condition is
not so good. The weather has been excel
lent for spring wheat. In Minnesota all
the counties report wheat looking finely,
With the exception Of one or two counties,
where an average yield is estimated. Re-
ports from Nebraska indicate only an aver
age prospect for wheat and corn. A ma.
jority Of Ohio reports are not such as to
indicate anything more than lair wheat
crop. Indiana has the promise of an aver
sge crop, except in the southern portions
Of the State, where the outlook is gloomy.
The same is true Of Illinois. Iowa reports
good wheat and corn prospects, aud the
wheat yield in Kansas promisea tosbevery
large. The wheat prospect in. Kentucky
Is not ae promising as year ago. y In Nils.
aouri an average crop is predicted. Farmers
generally are delivering their surplus stocks
Of wheat and corn freely. x
