Secretary MohIer Says That There II
Been a Marvelous Wheat Yield

| Secretary MohIer Says That There Has
Been a Marvellous Wheat Yield
TOPEKA, Kan, Sept 7.-Following is
the report of the secretary of the state
board of agriculture:
From reports of correspondents of
this board carefully compiled, we learn
that Kansas throughout its entire
breadth has bountiful harvest of all
kinds of cereals, grasses, fruits and
garden products. While in some
localities corn has suffered from insult
fcient rainfall during August, yet the
state, as a whole, has never had a more
encouraging outlook than at the
present time.
Wheat-Our correspondents report
wheat threshiDg in 103 out of i06 coun-
ties of the state. In the eastern section
OF the state the actual yield per acre, as
reported by threshers, is very nearly
the same as the previous estimate OF
our correspondents. In the central and
western sections of the state the yield
reported so far is considerably above
the former estimate of our correspond
ents. Should the balance of the crop
yet to be threshed yield equally well,
the> total winter product will be in
creased over the previous estimate
about 5, 900, 900 bushels, making total
aggregate wheat product for the state
(winter and spring. of about 60, 600, OOG
bushels
Oats-The average yield of oats per
acre as reported by threshers up to date
for the eastern portion of the state is
twenty-nine bushels; for the central
portion, thirty-six and ona-quarter
bushels; for the western portion, thirty
four bushels. Excessive rains cut down
the yield in the eastern portion greatly.
Flax-Nearly all the fax growing in
the state is in the eastern third of Kan
saS The yield as reported so far is six
and one-quarter bushels per acre. Too
much rain is the cause of the short
yield.
Corn-Corn, which in the early part
of the season suffered from excessive
rains, during the month of August in
many localities suffered from want of
sufficient rainfall The eastern and
central portions of the state seem to
have suffered more from this cause
than the western portion. The general
condition of the state has fallen from
90 to 81 per cent during August The
greatest falling off is in the eastern
third of the state, where the average
condition is reported at only 70 pei
cent Late corn will still be much i'm
proved by timely rains
Other crops such as sorghum, broom
corn and prairie grasses and all kinds
Of fruits, Notwithstanding they have
been reduced somewhat in condition by
insufficient rainfall during August are
still very good With forage crops
abundant, and wheat yielding beyond
expectations, the farmers of Kansas
seem to be on the way to prosperity.

THE M,KINLEY BILL.

British Exports Not Much Affected In the
TOtaIs-Tin Plate Trade Stagnant.
LONDON, Sept S.-Investigations in
regard to the Mckinley tariff bills
effect have been made throughout
Great Britain. While the exports to
America from certain places show
marked falling off, yet the totals for
January, February and March this year
(the last three months for which figures
are obtainable) show an increase over
the figures of the same months last
year. These months may be regarded
as the best ones for comparison since
the bill went into effect
In 1890 during those months the rush
to get goods into America before the
bill became law had not yet begun,
and this year the same months form
period when the rush, with the excep-
ton of tin plate, was over, and when
business may be supposed to have been
in more normal condition than at any
time since the passage of the bill
The declared value of exports for the
first quarter of 1891 from the consular
districts of Great Britain and Ireland
dhlOuhbC0 W OfCL GU, OOOyO dgd
S45, ,737, 724 during the same quarter of
last year. Among the cities in this dis
trict are Belfast, Birmingham, Brad
ford, Bristol, Cardiff, Cork, Dublin, Dun
dee, Dunfermline, Falmouth, Glagcow,
Huddersfeld, Hull, Leeds, Leith,
Liverpool, London, Manchester, New
castle, Nottingham, Plymouth, Shelf
field, Southampton and TunstalL Lon
don, where articles of every conceiv-
able description are declared, leads the
list with record of So, 700, 900, which
is nearly s.. 900, 600 less than in January,
February and March, 1890
Interviews with several leading
manufacturers and exporters show that
the metal trade is the one principally
affected in the Liverpool district and
the tin plate trade particularly. There
is complete stagnation in this industry
at present American buyers, to an
ticipate the working of the tariff
as far as practicable, imported during
the six months prior to July 1, when
the new rate went into effect more
than enough tin plate to supply a years
demand. The big manufacturers here
are all hopeful that there VIII be
change in the law after the next presi-

here, asked as to the effects of the Nc
Kinley tariff act on the export trade in
London and Great Britain, said: II can
only give you the facts that have come
under my observation in my own office
and those that have been reported TO
me by the consuls under my jurisdic-
tion. For the six months ending June
so of this year there was falling of
of about 10 per cent in the mum Der OF
invoices at my consulate-general and
a decrease of from 10 to IS per cent
in the value of the exports, as
compared with the corresponding
months of 1890. During the same
period the reports from all the con-
sulates in Great Britain show marked
decrease in exports of such articles as
silks, fine worsted dress goods, fine
unions, which are cotton and linen
mixed goods, wool, camePs and goat
hair goods, and manufactures of iron
and steel, amounting approximately to
" pei NClI-s Nh4AC lAAC dCSASo0S III wiz
value of cutlery exported amounts to
about 60 per cent"
"Have there been any articles the
importation of which has increased?"
Yes Tin plate, for instance, has
doubled and manufactured woods,
with an increased duty, have largely
increased. Hemp and fax, with de-
creased duty, have doubled, and drugs
also with a decreased duty have nearly
doubled These articles reduced the
average of decrease in the whole vol
ume of exports from Great Britain very
materially. aud, taken in connection
with the articles which have been add
ed to the free list under the tariff act
the expectation of which have largely
increased, it would appear that there is
no great paralysis of trade between
our country and this"
''Do you think the trade will con-
tinue to decrease?"
81 take It that the trade of this coun-
try with the United States will increase
in proportion as our population in
creases, and that Great Britain need
have no fear of the healthy competi-
ton of American manufacturers, who
are protected by the tariff only against
the lower wages on this side of the
water"
