H V. Jones, statistician, estimates the
winter wheat crop at 100000 900 bushels.
His estimate of North and South Dako-
ia and Minnesota is 174,000, 000s bushels,
this includes 100000 bushels of duran
wheat He makes the total spring
combined yield of winter and spring
wheat 624 900, 900 bushels. The govern
ment on August 10, estimated the total
crop of both winter and spring wheat
at 703, 500, 600, or 7a,50o,000 less than Mr..
Snow. The prevailing sentiment in the
market continues overwhelmingly bear
ish In comparison with prices last year
it does look like wheat ought to do bet

but they are weak at best and only a
fash in the pan. Prices seem to sink
under their own weight to new low
levels. Farmers in large areas OF the
country are not getting over 81 or %
cents for their wheat, compared with 80
cents and 81 wear ago. If there is a
large surplus in the country, prices Will
gradually seek lower level when for
