CONDITION OF THE WHEAT CROP.

A Toronto letter says: statistical position of
Canadian crops is far less favorable than for
number of seasons. Last year Manitoba raised
$4,000 600 bushels OF wheat; this year there are
only 100000. Cash wheat is now selling in
Ontario at 1870 S0c.'
It is concluded that So 600, 600 bushels is lib
eral estimate for th whea, crop of Great Britain
this year.
The French whea: crop is estimated at from
327, 100000 to $4,000, 900 bushels
In Germany the wheat crop is a poor average,
except in Prussia where ir is officially reporie ed
below the average. II N ay be expected that the
wheat import OF 1S9697 viii exceed the average
anu that larger proportion than usual viii come
from the United States.
:. In other European countries the reports
follows:
: Denmark-wheat is good average. The SOW
sings of W nter wheat are now well along.
Spain-The deficit OF the year is esim ated to ex
ceed $4,000 600 bushels more than double that of
last year
Austria Hungary-Wh under average anG re-
ports as TO corn crop not optimistic.
Italy-An average crop all around.
..s Roumania-Ihe estimate is 69.0O00OO bushels
of wheat. The corn crop is extremely disappolnt-
ing and the same statement is made about all tn e
Danubian countries.
Russia here Is a big deficiency in the Russian
wheat crop. The highest estimate puts the crop
OCO,O00. General opinion inciines to the lower.
