WHEAT.
LATEST OFFICIAL REpoRrs-AMpnE SUPPLY Sc

CURED.
TO hc Eaftor OF rae Tribune.
Sir: \ month ago it was estimated that the m
Jury to wheat early in June had been such that u
minimum estimate of 4SG, 900 600 bushels might be
warranted if the area of winter WHEAT should
prove to be no more than "a 800. 900 acres. Now
the Official report Of the Agricultural Department
Tor July shows loss since June l of only per
cent in winter wheat but loss Of 126 per cent in
spring wheat condition, indicating yield varying
rs before from 4Sl ,0OO 600 TO $4,000, 600 bushels
Taking 4sj,000,000 bushels an approximation
Tor July !. which for practical purposes is sutl-
GENTLY near my estimate OF month ago, 1t may
be added that rains early IN July have much i'm
proved the prospect for spring wheat in Dskota
and Minnesota. According 70 California authdri-
ties, harvesting has resulted in the largest ycld
ever known, and the Kansas official report makes
the yield 100000 bushels. about double
that of last year. On the whole, 495, 100000
bushels would seem to represent the yield that is
probable July Is more nearly than airy other
figure.
The preliminary report for Jane makes the eX-
ports equivalent TO 6,355,290 bushels -four in
cuded against 6,249 7S9 bushels last year. SO
that expectations Of considerable increase in that
month were again defeated by the speculative
advance in prices. The returns thus indicate
aggregate exports for last year OF about ss,274,-
O5s bushels. leaving uncOnsumed and uhso.d july
3g,32S326 bushels in excess of the minimum
stock. Allowance may here be made on two ne
counts first, because last years crop was Of light
Weight, making less flour than usual and second,
because the high price of -four during part OF the
year would naturally have reduced consumption
per capita. Until further information has been
obtained, il seems safer to reckon that the tro
~ variation "a no ha lance each other.
that the equivalent of 80 600 600 bushels has been
carried over to this year.
At previous estimates of consumption, 100000
600 bushels FOR food and seed, the neW supply
this year will leave no less than 10000 900
bushels for export besides the entire surplus
from last year Scrutiny OF foreign accounts
fails TO disclose any evidence that the foreign de-
mand for wheat from this country is likely 10
rise from ss 600, 900 bushels last year TO $4,000
coo bushels for tire year just begun. W. N. G.

DANGER AT RAILROAD CROSSINGS.

TO ne Ldftor OF the Tribune
SIR AS at this season Of the year 50 many persons
visiting Watering places aud friends in the coun-
try will you not please give note Of warning in re
atlon TO the great needed In driving and Cross
ing railroad tracks. Forgetful Of danger, thought
less and inexperienced persons, male and female,
rush heedlessly upon the railroad tracks As well
might they expect TO Broadway in safety with
their eyes shut. The railroad corporations, aware
Of the danger, are making great efforts TO prvent
accidents Of this kind by laying out parallel roads,
and thus making the crossings either under over
the tracks. This system tnaugurated by John
Taylor Johnston on the Central Railroad OF New-Jer-
sey. For instance, IN Painfeld the tracks were
raised for miles and all tie streets are budged over
The time must surely when this system viii
be carried out al the ra1ro ads. In the meaI-
time let not the great danger be forgotten when
ever an one drives over the track. A. D.
