Various estimates are placed by
experts" upon the wheat crop that
will be harvested in the state of
North Dakota this year says the Bis
marck Tribune; and some of the
estimates place the probable total

a hundred million bushels. Esti-
mates of crop yield are notoriously
unreliable; but the indications are
that there will be large increase
over the total yield of last year;
and, with the high price that wheat
commands, the dollar crop will be
largely increased, also. There is a
considerable new acreage of wheat
in the state this year, and this viii

crop. And the wealth that will be
