Large Wheat Crop.

The June report of the Depart
ment of Agriculture indicates
that big wheat crop may be ex-
pected. The present harvest out
look is for ISL, 100000 bushels
spring and winter wheat. The
nearest approach to this in the
past was 74S,0OO,0O0, the yield of
last year. AS an index to the
steady development of the agri.
cultural interests of the country
the figures are significant when
compared with those Of previous
years. For example, the wheat
harvest for 1893 was 1896, 900,
just half that estimated for the
present year. The report just
issued reflects damages done to
crops in Kansas and Missouri by
the floods. In winter wheat there
is disease in the condition of 10
points in Kansas. This, however
puts the crop % above the condi-
ton on June 1st year ago. A
loss of II points is reported from
Missouri, and this brings the con
dition down to a basis that is 2f
points below that of last year
The average condition OF the
wheat crop for the entire country
is given at 1922, decline of 10.4
points compared with the esti
mate of May 1st of this year, and
comparing with 76.1 the RECORD
of June 1st, 1902. A quantative
estimate based on these percent
ages and the acreage planted
places the yield of this winter
crop at 483, 362, 900. This exceed.
the high water record of 1901 by
25, 100000 bushels. Spring whea
conditions are reported at 95.'
and the indicative yield is 29S,
$4,000 bushels. This estimate
is record breaker in the histor,
of the wheat crop of the country
