and consumed in the country where it
Is grown is very large.
When the farmer has amply provided
for himself, he begins to think of sell
ing his surplus which in 1898, for the
United States and Canada, amounted
to the enormous total of 100000, 900
bushels OF this, something less than
half is consumed in the cities of the
United States and Canada, and some
thing more than half is exported to
foreign countries, either as wheat or as
-four.
The wheat crop of the average year
is, therefore, divided into three more or
less equal parts, the first being con
sumed by the farmer and his immedi-
ate neighbors Of the smaller towns and
villages, the second going to supply the

MOVING THE WHEAT CROP. +
j.
Gigantic Industry Employing Millions of e.
Capital and Countless Hands. E.

At the present time the quantity of
wheat which is sent abroad from the
United States and Canada annually is
about 250,000,000. Yet this, large as
1T is, will certainly be more than dou-
bled within the next ten years.
Sir William Crookes, the distinguish
ed president of the British Association
for the Advancement of Science, writ
Ing recently of the proportion between
wheat production and wheat consump-
ton, ventured to name the year 1881
as a date when the worlds bread-eat-
ers would cry for more wheat than the
worlds farmers could produce. This
may be an overestimate, yet the statis-
ties from which such prophecies are
drawn show how very closely the con-
sumer treads upon the heels of the pro-
durer. and how imperative is the neces-
Sity of distributing the crop--grown
perhaps half a world away from the
Centers of conSumption-as soon as it
is shaken from the threshers in Il mill
ion fields, in order that every white
man shall have his loaf, and have it
before his last supply has run out.
Great Britain eats her entire wheat
crop in about thirteen weeks. and then
she must be supplied Immediately with
the products of America or Central
Russia or India, or else she must suffer.
If the United Kingdom he completely
blockaded, say by the ships of allied
Europe, her population would probably
he totally eXtingushed by starvation
within three months. The like is true
of every country in western Europe,
although in some of them actual star
vaton could be much longer averted,
Generally speaking, the vast tides of
wheat sent to the east and north-from
the emYgrant farmers on the edge of
civilization to the cities of the old coun-
tries; from the American continent,
Chill, and Argentine to Europe. There
are lesser tides to the west and south,
as from California to China, from Rus
sia and India to England, from the
United States to Brazil

threshers' dust, oats, cookie; and he
examines the kernels keenly to see If
they are shrunken or burnt; and then
he smells for smut. He even plunges
a hollow brass tube into the heap TO
make sure that some cunning shipper
has not put in layer or plug Of poorer
grade wheat at the bottom Of the car.
Usually he is able to decide on the
grade Of carload almost as soon rs he
sees the wheat; but sometimes he is
compelled to take out ninch here and

concentrated masses of population in
the great cities, and the third being eX-
ported as wheat or flour to feed the
foreigner.
Mr.. Ray Stannard Baker, in an article
on the Movement of Wheat, in Nc
Clure's Magazine, tells Of the manner
in which the wheat crop is disposed Of
by the wheat farmer.
There are three general methods by
which this Is done. In the prolific
Northwest. where large numbers of

A few years may make great many
changes in these tides. The rice-eating
Chinaman has tasted the food of the
white man and he finds it good. He
could consume the present worlds crop
and still go hungry. Siberia, opened
by the Russian railroad, may yet be
one of the greatest wheat-producing
countries. Australia has been farmed
only around its fringes.
When a European thinks of food he
thinks in terms of wheat. He is the
greatest of bread-eaters. Yet in the
best of years Europe never produces
enough, even including the crops from
the vast fields of Russia to supply her
own needs. She is therefore absolute
ly dependent on the United States,
Canada, India, Australia and Argen-
tine.
Progressive Wheat Growers.
The American and Canadian farmer,
and particularly the Northwestern
wheat farmer. who ploughs and reaps
and threshes by machinery without so
much as touching his product with his
hands. is becoming pre-eminently a
man of business. The Governments
have supplied colleges for educating
him. and they send him regular bulle-
tins containing the result Of long-con-
tinued experiments 60 '.ted by the

The Columbus Journal of Saturday,

The Columbus Journal of Saturday,
gives the following item, concerning
Ex-State Senator Cutler, which will in
terest his many friends in this county.
We hope the Doctor will be much bene-
flied by the operation referred to.
CDR. James Cutler, a banker of Rich
wood and a state senator in the Sixtieth
general assembly of Ohio from the
Thirteenth district, of Union, Hardin,
Logan and Marion, is at St. Francis
hospital, undergoing treatment for q
few days. The doctor served when in
his teens in the regular army in the
Mexican war, and was in all the battles
with General Scott between Vera Cruz
and the City of Mexico, in one of which
he lost an eye from q desperate wound.
In the civil war of 1861-65 the doctor
was captain of an Ohio cavalry company.
OF late years his old eye wound has ter
ribly afflicted him, and only q short
time ago he returned from Southern
California, where, as for years, he spent
the winter. DR.. c. F. Clark performed
in operation on his side, which had
been affected by his old eye wound, and
the doctor stood well under the opera
ton, which it is thought, will give him
great relief from the affliction he bas
sustained. He will remain in the hos
pital until next week.
