The United States the Greatest of Producers
and Exporters.

ana exporters.
(New York Sun.
Some of the great wheat-growing 'coun-
tries are scarcely ever referred to as large
raisers of this cereal simply because.
needing the grain ut home they export
very little. Italy, Germany and Spain,
for example, all grow far larger quanti-
ties than Argentina or Austraiia. but we
hear little about their wheat, because
they consume practically all of it ut home.
Much is written about the wheat crops
of Argentina and Australia because they
are contributors to the general commerce
i'll wheat; though. as a rule, II countries
each produce more wheat than Australia
and iU countries surpaSs Argentina III an
nnal yield.
1t would take about all the wheat of
Australia 10 make the macaroni that Italy
manufactures from her home wheat sup
ply with great surplus left for bread.
Argentina would have to increase her
product about iivefold to raise the amount
OF wheat grown III France. which ranks
third among the worlds producers. 1t is
easy to forget that France Is surpassed
| only by the United States and Russia in
wheat production, for her great crop does
not supply her need and she is Il wheat
buying country. y little over 10 years
ago rye bread was the staple food OF the
French peasantry. but most of them have
since Joined the wheat-eaters, with the
result that the people cannot raise ali the
wheat they need.
Frances average crop IS usually about
one-third larger than that of India, whose
wheat seems To attract more attention
| than Frances harvest, for no other rea
son. apparently, than because, in good
crop years, India is expected to help sup
ply the deficiency of Europe.
Except in famine years India has from
100000 to $4,000, 900 bushels of export
wheat grown III our Winter months, when
the climate i'll the best wheat districts is
! usually as cool, at least, as Minnesota
Summer. Though India. is the fourth
largest grower, the wheat crop is far in
ferior in importance either to the rice of
the lowlands or the millet of the drier
plateau of the Deccan, these two grains
being the great staples of vegetable food.
There Is an export tax on rice because
the country needs all it grows; but the
ability TO help supply Europe with wheat
jab for which they have to thank the
Suez Canal. They could not send wheat
to Europe rs long as it was necessary to
double the Cape of Good Hope, passing
through the tropics both in the Indian
Ocean and the Atlantic: but steamship
transportation through the canal made q
new source of breadstuffs tributary to
Europe: and Indian export wheat is one
of the most conspicuous illustrations of
the influence a great ship canal may ex-
ert upon the economic conditions of q
country.
But how the United States dwarfs all
the other wheat-exporting nations, There
are only four countries-Russia, France.
India and Italy-that raise more wheat
than we send across the ocean to foreign
consumers: and this is not counting in
the 15,000.000 to 100000 barrels of
flour we annually export.

ABOUT THAT BRIDGE.
Correspondent Thinks City Railway
Should Build New One.

To the Editor of the State Journal
Now that the electric railway bridge Is
partly destroyed there should be vigOr-
ously expressed public demand for an en-
pond with those of the Melan bridge. The
street railway bridge has always been
simply a trap. public menace to life and
property. We are liable to floods of high
water both in summer and winter If any
thing like the recent flood had occurred In
winter, accompanied by ice forming in
gorges, 1t is impossible to imagine the re-
suit, not only to bridges but to all the low
er portions of the city.
That the street railway management is
utterly reckless as to the public welfare
is clear from the statement reported as
coming from high official that there was
no danger, and this accompanied by the
incorrect statement on two different Occa-
sions that the river had been several feet
higher since the bridge was built in 1893,
SO that it was with difficulty that drift
could be crowded under the structure.
Every one who has lived here ten years
knows this to be a mistake.
The venerable John Armstrong, who has
been here since 1854, tells me that tho
river has never carried much water
more country flooded, all the city below
Crane and to First street, but that was
before the lower part of the city was
filled up and when islands were obstruc-
lions, or perhaps ice gorges had formed.
1t would not require One-half the late
overflow a large portion of the city, If
the present network of piles is allowed to
remain. If nothing is done to prevent it
the street car company may do piece OF
patchwork that will leave the bridge with
all its remaining piles strained and weak
Let the people demand new and a safe
bridge. G, +. KIMBAIII.

THOSE THISTLES.
Jewell County Editor Doesn't Agree
With Mr., Coburn.

The report that the Russian thistle Is
good for pasture and hay does not meet
with much favor in Jewell county. w. c.
Palmer, editor of the Jewell Republican,
who is considerable of an agriculturist
himself, urges that the thistle be entirely
rooted out of the country. He says:
I'VE wish the. Jewell county farmers
could all see how handily the Russian
thistle adapts itself to alfalfa. intertwin-
ing its branches with the alfalfa until
you cannot see where one quits or the
other begins. Some of the branches run
nat on the ground. and when these pro-
duce and scatter their tens of thousands
of fine seed. that alfalfa is a goner and
mnst be plowed up. And even blowing
does not kill the stuff 1t is not possible
to cover every one of the long sprangling
branches and wherever the slightest tip
of one sticks out, it will grow and pro-
duce seed. People who think the Rus
sian thistle scare is something to be
laughed at will sing different tune when
they get good dose of it. We doubt If it
can ever be gotten rid of If it is once al
lowed to get possession of our waste land
This week we saw where small last
years Russian thistle rolled and struck a
woven wire fence. On both sides of the
fence the little thistles had sprung up in
great quantities. This shows that a
woven fence, while checking the old weed,
will not stop the onward march of the
new crop. If these had not been found
the whole. field would have been seeded
this year."

MEMBERS OF THE STATE BOARD OF PHAR-

BY an amendment to the State pharmacy law

State Board of Pharmacy for this section of the

peculiar phase Of the situation is that the bill was
what effect it would have their terms of office

doubts on this subject were set at a few days
ago. when Attorney General Davies wrote a letter

section would have to be chosen the election in
June. The decision has caused much rejoicing
among members Of the New-York Retail Drug
gists Association. East Side organization OF
this city. and already there many candidates
for the offices TO be filled in June.
The members Of the State Board Of Pharmacy
affected by the amendment Clarence .. Bige-
low George &. Diekman and Sidney Faber. Of
Manhattan, and Albert H. Brundage ana William

lows term Of office would have expired next Jan

office from 10 five years. a well known phar-
mdCSt told Tribune reporter yesterday that there
would undoubtedly be stirring contest for the
dates who were not now members of the board
