WHEAT INCREASED
BY 536,268 ACRES
ACCORDING TO LATEST NORTH
WEST REPORTS.

u
in Minnesota and South Dakota
Coarse Grains Increase, Except
Flax, Which Shows a Heavy Fall-
ing OFF.
From replies received from 1000 in
uuiries sent out by the Daily Market Rec
ord on June Q, It would appear that the
wheat acreage this year in Minnesota and
the Dakotas is somewhat larger than a
year ago. The report shows an increase
Of 1T per cent in Minnesota, 20 per cent
in South Dakota and 9.8 per cent in North
Dakota. The May reports on acreage, as
reported by large number Of correspon-
dents, showed an increase in Minnesota
of III per cent, a decrease In South Da-
kota of IN per cent and an increase in
North Dakota Of 9 per cent over 1908.
Using the figures Of the department Of
agriculture for 1908. there appears to be
an increase this year Of 94,S02 acres in
Minnesota, 464,629 acres in North Dakota
and 1887 acres in South Dakota, over
last year@a total Increase for the three
states of 636,268 acres.
All reports say that the condition of
growing crops, except corn, is good. The
weather was cool during the spring and
up to the present time which resulted in
small grains Of all kinds taking strong
hold, so that now they are in a thoroly
healthy condition and capable Of with
standing much unfavorable weather
Coarse Grain Acreage.
In South Dakota corn and oats show an
increase Of about s per cent over last
years acreage. In North Dakota oats
show an increase Of 13 per cent and barley
25 per cent increase. Flax shows only
about So per cent Of last years acreage
seeded this year. In Minnesota there Is
some increase in the area given to corr
and oats. Barley shows a falling off and
SO does fax, with rye about the same
The general condition of all grains is ex
cellent, excepting corn, which is back
ward, owing to the COOL weather.
