This means that the average price to the
farmer for contract wheat all over the
prairie country is, exactly 81 per bushel
The farmers have been looking for thu
day when dollar wheat would rule and
they have it now. Some old wheat is sti]I
coming forward from the elevators and 4
little of last years crop remains in the
hands Of the farmers. This nearly an
grades up to the contract, and it means
a great gain for those who held it. The
new wheat is still grading very high,
when one considers the conditions under
which it was produced. Out of 459 cars,
1928 in two days contained wheat which
would answer for delivery on contracts.
In other words over 100000 bushels of
wheat which would bring the farmers an
average Of about 81 per bushel, reached
Winnipeg in two days. The significance
of 100000 worth of wheat being passed
by the inspectors in two days at the close
of an admittedly unfaYorable season
should not be allowed to sink out OF
sight at time when returns from agr1-
cultural activity in the west are being
anxiously awaited. These figures do not
take account of the lower grades, of
which there were l3l cars. More tnan one
third of these contained milling wheat
which would remunerate the farmer at
the rate of 93c per bushel on the basis
of to-day's closing figures. The balance
consisted of low grade stuff which would
vary greatly in quality and would show
great spreads in prices.
''The approximate value of the two
days receipts of wheat, however, would
be more than 100000 calculating the ca
pacity of car at 1000 bushels and elm.
mating the cost of freight and handling.
AS many of the modern cars contain
more than 1000 bushels and as the freight
TO to Fort William is less than 15c
cwt. on most of the wheat which is
now coming forward, the estimate Of
100000 is low. The circulation of $780,

from Crop Experts.

Most of the states of the union felt
the unusually severe winter OF l9O6-1,
and the effects of the succeeding late
spring were everywhere apparent
Corn was planted two and sometimes
three times, the winter wheat suffered
and generally there was a nervous
feeling as the retarded growth was in
evidence. From the Dakotas to Texas
the feeling of dread existed, and the
fears were entertained that the crop of
corn, wheat, oats and barley would
be distinct failure. How far this was
the case is best left to those who
passed through the experience. Natur-
ally the same conditions were preva-
lent throughout the province of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta, in
western Canada, and with from 250.-
900 to 100000 farmers there from the
United States large degree of inter-
est was manifest in almost every state
of the union, for every state has some

June-sown grain would mature and
ripen in any country. The May sown
ripened, and this is the feature that
has proved western Canada's SUPERB
ority as grain-growing country. It
demonstrates that the length Of sum
shine is so great that the growing and
ripening season, although shorter in
number of days than in parts farther
south, in hours is as great or greater.
A correspondent Of the Toronto Globe,
most careful purveyor Of news,
writing from Winnipeg, Manitoba,
says
Excellent progress in the process Of
converting the crop into marketable COM
modify has been made. The days have
been fairly warm considering the sea-
Bon of the year and while the amount of
sunshine per day is less than in an ordl-
nary harvest the grain has matured well.
The reports from far and near show that
the aggregate Yield for the whole grain
growing country is likely to be large,
and there are those who assert that the
quantity will be equal to about rs per
cent OF that secured last season. The

Women all over the world are be-

granting of parliamentary suffrage to

to the women Of Denmark of the right
to vote for and serve as members of

elected by the voters of London.
Beresford Hope,s who had been de-
feated by Lady Sandhurst, contested
the election on the ground that women
were not eligible. The litigation was
prolonged and meanwhile the women
were allowed TO serve. One OF the
duties assigned to Lady Sandhurst
was the supervision Of twenty-three In

Special to Evening Teller.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, July 9.-The
election of Congressman John H.
Bankhead to succeed the late John T.
Morgan in the United States senate
by the Alabama legislature, which
convened today for its adjourned or
"split" session, is assured. Practically
all talk of opposition to Mr.. Bank
heads election has subsidized, and his
selection Is now a matter of certainty
the party leaders taking the ground
that it is incumbent upon them to act
in accordance with the result of the
state primary last August, which de-
clared Mr.. Bankhead to be the first
choice for alternate senator.
In addition to the senatorial election
the legislature will have considerable
business of Importance to dispose OF
at the present session. Probable the
most important matter to engage at
tention will be the report Of the COM
mittee appointed to frame a municipal
code which will provide for uniform
system of government for all the cities
of Alabama of over 1000 population.
