\ Shortage In binding Irvine.

The agriculture department reports an
increase of 100000 acres In wheat over
last years crop. The condition of Win
ter wheat is about II points higher
than the average for the last two years.
Spring wheat conditions are unpre-
cedented, standing 1909 as compa red
with 92.5 for the past 20 years. Unless
some wide spread disaster comes before.
harvest, and the winter wheat is close
at hand, the crop will call for an I'M
usual amount OF binding Irvine. The
timely rain in he Northwest favors a
heavy growth Of straw. and even if the
yield of grain is not up to expectations,
the amount of twine consumed must
largely exceed the average. The block
ade OF Manila has kept great deal of
Manila and sisal fiber from being i'm
ported, and the stocks in the hands of
the manufacturers were lighter than
usual at the close Of last seasons run.
The stocks of manufactured Irvine in the
hands Of jCbbers are reported light in
nearly all sections, even with but about
40 per cent Of their retail trade cared
for. The mills all seem to be fairly
well supplied with hemp ibcr, but of
course the hemp twires have advanced
alphabetically with the sisals and
Manillas.
From these facts, IL would seem to
be the part of prudence for the farmers
to contract now for this seasons twine
A shortage, which would considerably
advance prices is possible, while it is
not probable that anything can occur
which will make the price lower.
