To Eclipse "Bumper Crop"

According to reports, the largest wheat
crop in the history of the United States
will be harvested within fortnight. The
winter wheat yield. which aggregates
frcm 375,000,0o0 to 100000 bushels,
will be increased to the extent of nearly
350,000. 900 bushels from the spring wheat
region. The bumper CROP" of 1891 will
be eclipsed this year by 100000, 500 BUSH
els from present Indications. Railroad
officials who have plade extended trips
through the spring wheat and corn grow
ing States make optimistic reports. State
crop reports received from Kansas and
Michigan say: "A bumper crop is here
The corn crop is slightly below the aver
age because of the wet June and dry July
weather in the corn region. But the great
bulk of wheat which this country will
have for home consumption and export is
regarded as more than sufficient IL make
up for the corn shortage. Fur .ermore,
the large stock of corn on hano is thought
to be more than enough to make up for
the lack of production. Another feature
of the general crop situation is the threat
ened reduction of the surplus of wheat ex-
ported from Russia, which will compel
European markets TO call for probably
more than the average annual supply OF
150,000,000 bushels from this country.
A comparison of the wheat yields in this
country since 1890, with the yield of the
present year, the spring wheat crop being
estimated is as follows:
