that after this experience of ten years

q home for her surplus population, since,
according to the oficitl statis-

displaying much energy and fOrethOught
In establishing lines of steamers to Asia,

moreover, taking the lead of all European

MODERN MILLER'S WHEAT RE-
VIEW

Reports are so conflicting that we can
not estimate the damage to wheat from
frost, says the Modern Miller. The Hes
sian ny is damaging the wheat plant in
various sections throughout Indiana and
Illinois and chinch bugs are at work in
the uplands Of the Central and Western
states. 50 that instead OF reporting an
advanced condition Of the growing wheat
crop our advices indicate decline for.
the week. Wheat receipts have increas-
ed somewhat. due to the very high prices
paid the last few days and the fact that.
millers are securing the country for sup
plies. The redistribution Of the visible
supply Is actively on and may be expect
ed to 80 compete with country reserves
as to induce farmers to market what
ever surplus grain they have, rather
than risk the demand being supplied by
the redistribution OF visible stocks On
this account slightly increased country
marketings Of wheat may be expected
The number OF mills running on short
time or shut down entirely In the winter
wheat region increased during the week.
Texas, Missouri and Kansas millers are
buying milling wheat in Chicago, and
unless farmers deliveries greatly In
crease they will continue to buy milling
crop Is marketable. The rainfall during
the week was too light to drown out
chinch bugs In any of the various Sec
tions in which they have hold on the
wheat plant, and very few sections re-
port rain enough to improve the condi-
ton of the growing crops. The entire
wheat growing area of the country was
visited by frost during the week, doing
much damage in the Western prairies
and in the Mississippi and Ohio valleys.
Killing frost, forecasted by the signal
service, will visit the Dakotas, Minneso-
ia. Wisconsin, Michigan and possibly ex-
tend to Nebraska, Iowa and the South
west tonight. Pacific coast crop pros
poets are shattering.

CROPS OF KANSAS AND MISSOURI,

The crop outlook in Missouri. Kansas
and the Indian territory Is varied. In
Kansas. the wheat crop Is meager and
unsatisfactory. the corn crop fair and
fruit excellent. Wheat In that state has
suffered from drouth. and corn feels the
effect OF the recent cold weather. In
Missouri the wheat has been attacked by
the chinch bug, and the cold weather has
had the effect OF destroying that enemy.
AS in Kansas, the corn. crop is all right
in this state.
It is rather fortunate that the planting
of wheat was materially decreased this
year. as compared with last, for the rea-
son that the conditions for that crop are
unpropitious. "A considerable portion IT
the ground sowed in wheat last fall has
been replanted In other crops this spring,
which will save considerable to the far
mers. The seed and labor of planting
are lost. It is true, but the use of the soil
Is saved by the energy and thoughtfu
ness which led to the replanting, and
that after all Is material

THE STORY OF A CLIPPER
She Sailed Like a Witch and Engaged In
