Iowa state Reg lster-
Grain statisticians have arrived at so near an
exact knowledge of what il takes to feed the hu-
man family with bread for a year, that they can
state the amount down nearly TO a fraction. At
an early date in each year they get q correct
estimate of the crops of the world. Ii is con-
coded that there is a greater deficiency in the
wheat crop this year than for twenty-five years.
Even Dalrymple. who talks, thinks and dreams
only of wheat Is warning his fellow-farmers to
hold on to their wbest and keep it for a season
in their own bins on their farms He says thcre
will be shortage In the spring wheat crop of
the Northwest OF 50, O00.0 900 bushels. and it is
officially announced that France will have a
shortage of 100000. The London Times
places the shortage in Great Britain at not less
than 40, 000 900. The other countries of central
Europe are not much better off. Even Russia
is complaining OF short crops IL is confidently
claimed that the wheat supply OF the world is
300. OOo, 900 bushels short II supply and de-
mand regulate the price, there will be an ad-
vance, and the farmers who have wheat TO sell
ought TO have the advantage of the advance.

BERLIN. Sept l5.-With the exception Of the
clerical prsss, all the German and Austrian
newspapers praise Emperor Francis Joseph's
public rsbuke of Bishop Strossmeyer. The ex
act text Of the bishops message to the Kieff
celebrants follows: MAY Russia, aided
by providence and Christian heroism accom-
plish. besides her other tasks. that great mis-
sion which the Almighty has intrusted to her.
This 10 held to be an open invocation OF the
divine blessings upon Russia in her attempt to
absorb the Austro- Slsv peoples. 1t 10 reported
that Count Kaluoky. in an interview
with the papal puneio. advised that
Bishop Strossmeyer be deposed. Besides
being . state official aiming at the states dis
ruption, the Bishop is charged WITH NAL admin
istrstion OF the episcopal estates. which, since
he was appointed have become burdened with
debt Of $500, 900 forms. Advices from St
Petersburg Disclose considerable popular feeling
in favor of Bishop Strossmeyer. The semi
official press describe the action Of Emperor
Francis Joseph as Q painful indication of the
course OF policy calculsted not only to wear
out the patience OF Russia towards Austria,
but to augment the antaeonism Of the Siav
and German elements TO the empire OF the
Hamburas.
