Wheat in Australia.

A Mclbourn paper which is rrcOg-
nizcd authority, confirms the general
opinion that the AustraaSian wheat
harvest this year is exceptionally good
in quality and large in quantity 1t
says of the colony of Victoria: The
average per acre, which is expected to
be nearly twO-thrds more than the
average of the past three years, has
not been cqualled since the area under
crop reached 100000 acres. The esti-
mate average this season is little
more than l49 bushels per acre upon
over 100000 acres, the highest aver
age in ten years, with the exception of
1876, when an average of l5.49 was OBJ
tanned upon an area Of 321, ,40l acres.
A good average yield indicates that
satisfactory returns are obtained by
The gross produce of the wheat crop,
amounting to li,99S, $50 bushels, is
over two-thirds more than the annual
return of the past two years, and over Il
third more than the greatest yield ever
obtained in the colony, giving Il surplus
for export more than three times as
great as that of last season. The
volume of wheat this season is made
up not alone from good yields in the
districts which have been averaging
well in past years, but also from 4
large area of good crops in districts
which have during the last three OF
four years given very light returns.
The usual allowance Of 81 bushels pei
head for population of say 100000
will require 4,950,000 bushels, and fol
sowing next season an area of /, 10000
acres, 1850, 900 bushels will be needed,
or a total for home requirements OF
6,600,000 bushels Subtracting this
quantity from our estimated total yield
of 14,998, $50 bushels leaves a surplus
for export of 8,S9S,25O bushels.
Reckoning 375 bushels to the ton, this
gives surplus to be exported in 1884 Of
24,908 tons, or considerable more
than three times the quantity exported
