In the last week of August a tour
of inspection was made along the line
of railway in the wheat area by the
Northwest Grain Dealers association
and a number of American grain ex-
perts. What they saw convinced
them that not only was the crop a
good average one, but the quality Of
the grain grown was admittedly of
the best quality, and more than one
of the visitors stated that although
the yield might have been larger, the
quality could hardly have been i'm
proved. Speaking on this point, Mr..
J. F. Whal1ey, the well-known wheat
man of Minneapolis, said:

upon. This is less than was looked
for by some enthusiastic western peo-
pie, who maintained that increased
acreage necessarily meant an in
creased aggregate. Still, 10000, 900
bushels of wheat is 100000 better
than what was looked upon last year
as good crop, and we do not think
Western Canada has much cause to
feel down in the mouth because the
acme of its anticipations on the wheat
crop may not have been realized.
Taking one year with another, that
country has demonstrated that it can
be depended upon as a great wheat
growing territory, and has to be reck-
oned with in the markets of the
world.
The yield in oats has been in
creased this year by nearly 1,500, 900
bushels, the aggregate estimate being
75,725.60o, with the average at ALP
bushels to the acre. The estimated
crop of barley is placed at 1896, 500
bushels, which is a slight increase
over the total of last year. OF fax the
estimate given is 690,1S4 bushels,
which is a material increase upon last
years figures.
Following are the figures in detail
for wheat, oats, and barley in West
ern Canada for the three years last
past:

This year, the lowest returns. as we
have stated, are estimated at: Wheat,
7,203, 900 bushels; pats, 75,725, 500,
and barley at $3.50, 500 bushels, which
is very satisfactory, if not absolutely
satisfying. To better appreciate this
fact, all that is necessary to do is to
go back % years in the history Of
Western Canada. At that time the
agricultural product of the whole
country was confined to Manitoba,
and consisted of 100000 bushels of
wheat, on an acreage of $1,000 and
1,270,26S bushels of oats. The entire
crop was at that time required for
local purposes, and the export trade
was an unknown quantity. To-day,
allowing nearly 100000 bushels Of
wheat for local consumption and seed
ing, there will be about 100000 900
bushels for export, which at 20 cents
per bushe1 will bring in outside money
to the extent of nearly 100000
The barley and oats exported are
good for an additional $25,000,o00, and
