FOREIGN CROP REPORTS.
Harvest This Year Will Not Be Bad
One

The foreign crop reports to the Depart
ment Of Agriculture made public yester-
day announce that Sin the countries of lar
gest production the crops of the principal
bread grains cannot be called abundant, but
on general survey of the field 1t seems
probable that the harvest Of 1905 will not
on the whole be q bad one"
In Great Britain and ireland the area
under wheat is estimated at 100000 acres.
and the yield at SO, 100000 bushels, or thir-
ty-fve bushels to the acre, against area
last year of 1.400. 600 acres, and yield of
sc, 900 900 bushels, or less than twenty
eight bushels per acre. The area under
wheat in Manitoba and the northwest ter
rtories Is fully 10 per cent larger than ever
before. The acreage there Is placed at H..
OO0, 900 and the crop at 70,O0O,00O or So
600. 900 bushels. by some even as high as
a good crop outlook and the area of winter
grain appears to be much larger than last
year. In Australasia the outlook is more
promising than IN ten years. Despite I'M
favorable weather reports the outlook to
Germans last month seemed fair in Rus
STA. the crop prospects remained generally
satisfactory. the winter cereals promising
nearly, and the spring cereals above an
average yield. In Austria it is not yet GER
can be set down as good average crops. In
Hungary the prospect was considerably
worse than in June. but the total grain
crop promised to be larger than last years.
Although there was a large proportion Of
lodged wheat throughout the great wheat
growing regions in northern France, the
grain was in most cases fully formed.

Mutiny.
From the London Chronicle.

"Mutiny'' is word OF terrible sound.
partly because Of the many dreadful events
that 1t recalls. of which the case of the
Kniaz Potemkin is the latest. and partly,
no doubt. because to the ear 1t suggests
"mutilate." But 1t signifies. etymolog-
ically. nothing more than movement" and
"commotion'' ought really, again accord
ing to etymology to be the stronger word
CT the two The old French ''meute"
meaning sedition. to which the word Is
treaceable. has given way to ''emeute" in
this sense. ''meute' nowadays signifying
only a pack of hounds-a much more inno-
cent specialization of movement. 1t may
be noted that, while Shakespeare knows
"mutiny' in the modern sense Loves La
boris Lost" also speaks Of "a man whom
right and wrong have chosen as umpire of
their mutiny"-where '.mutiny" only means
discord or quarrel.
