The outlook for winter wheat is be-
coming q matter OF considerable inter-
eat TO the growers Of spring wheat, as
the crop of winter wheat will govern to
some extent the price of this yesrs' crop
Of spring. A gatherer Of wheat stats.
tics in Milwaukee has advices from many
Of the wheat growing states, and he
says the complaint seems general that
owing 10 the unreasonable fall and win
ter the condition of winter wheat is
most unfavorable and the promise for
even q fair outcome not very lattering.
Michigan, Illinois, Kansas and Missouri
report q large decrease in acreage, and
owing TO the severity of the winter tho
damage has been very great. The
weather has been unusually cold and
many OF the principal wheat counties
have been bare Of anow up to within the
past week. and the wheat is wholly
frozen out, which will ~necessitate piow-
ing mp in the spring and the sowing or
planting Of other cereals. He has nd.
vices from all the agricultural depart
ment or statistical agents Of the princi-
pal winter wheat raising states, giving
tsc srsa sown TO wheut IA compared
with last year, The figures show a
large decrease, ranging from 10 to 81
per cent. Many Of the large producing
states, including Kansas, Missouri and
Indiana, show = larger decrease,
