The Wheat Supply Short.

The st. Louis Journal of Agricul-
ture, treating editorially of the present
wheat crop and the probable advance
in prices, says the best American and
European authorities agree that the
worlds deficiency will be at the least
100 100000 bushels. The most reliable
figures now place the total American
crop of 1898 at $50, 100000, bushels.
which added to the surplus carried
over will make less than 450, 600, 00O
bushels. England will want probably
250, 200, 900, and the home trade needs
$4,000, 900 bushels. The Journal be-
lieYes that in view of the fact that the
American crop is 130,000,000 bushels
short as compared with last year, and
as Europe with short crop is now
grabbing up American wheat as fast as
she can without attracting too much
attention. the time has come wher
American farmers should not sell 6
bushel of wheat. For granting. it says
that prices do not advance, it will pay

sell at present figures.
Barton County democrat. [volume] (Great Bend, Kan.) 1885-1915, 1893-07-27

AS CANDIDATES for county Offices
this fall seem to be rather backward
about making announcements" we
will adopt rate for announcement
cards; taking the suggestion from a
valued exchange. For candidates be-
fore the democratic convention, an
nouncement free. Populists, SIS for an
announce. Republicans, $40 an an
nounce, and We reserve the right to
make editorial comment on same.
These are ''hard times" prices and you
had better come in while they prevail
as Grover is going to get the boys
together and improve the times.
