THE Cincinnati Price Current is of
opinion that the wheat crop of the
United States this year is not likely
TO exceed the production in 1891, and
may fall short of the understood yield
in that year, which was officially esti-
ficially at G75, OOO, 600 bushels. In 1891
the yield in KANSAS was officially esti.
mated at 81, ,sGG. 900 bushels, which may
be the production in that state this
year. Whether the mcrchantable Kan
sas wheat will equal that Of last year,
so, 600, 900 bushels, can only be ascer-
tanned by later Developments.
