HARelN, MANcHuRlA,

Harbin, the city in which Prince Ito
was assassinated, is the eastern ter
minus of the Manchurian branch of
the Trans Siberian railway. Ten years
ago Ilarbm was settlement of few
hundred persons. almost all of them
Manchus. and was built entirely of
mud novels. The engineers of the
czar found 1t available to run branch
direction. and the result was the quick
growth OF a magic city 1t was not
precisely u boom town. but was rather
the natural put very rapid rise OF a
solid city that was needed In that 10
cality Harbin now has population
of nearly 100000, consisting OF mix.
| ure OF almost all the nationalities of
the world. 1t has numerous factories,
flour mills and considerable trade by
| river as well as by rail Its buildings
somewhat resemble the light, put-up-
quick kind of structures that mark the
| American city OF the wild west. and
Harbin resembles Wild west city in
other ways also. In its first years ii
attracted thousands OF outlaws from
all parts of the world. Until recently
scarce day passed that murder
was not recorded, perpetrated chiefly
by the Asialc brigands that rushed
spontaneously thither in the hope OF
getting spoil. These men are said TO
be the most dangerous desperadoes in
the world. Notwithstanding all that,
the Russian government within the
past eight years has spent more than
$40 100000 on municipal improvements
In Harbin. and there is total OF many
millions OF private capital from China
and Russia In Harbin's industries. The
character of the town made 1t an ideal
place for the commission of desper-
ate crime.

WHEAT roR EXPORT.

This country's largest wheat crop
was produced in 1901. That was a
very poor year for corn, the poorest
since 1894. and in fifteen years there
have been many fluctuations for both
wheat and corn We now have an es-
innate for the present season that
would give us next to the largest corn
crop In our history and the third larg-
est wheat crop The combination has
been beaten once only. In 1906. a
bumper crop OF The last decade would
bo considered very small now.
Those general developments should
be taken into account in considering
the figures prepared by the bureau oi
statistics OF the department OF com;
merce and labor on wheat exports
These show that for the five-year pc
riod ending with June 30, 1904. there
were produced annually 625.000.0oO
bushels of wheat and that the equiya-
ed annually. They show. further, that
In the next half decade the production
amounted to 656,0O000o annually and
the exports TO only iia.000,oo0 bushels
The tendency apparently is toward n
large increase In home consumption
aid dlminutlon of exports.
II is obvious. however, from the
statistics of production to which we
have called attention that the country
can raise surplus for some time TO
come The lower average of exports
was nearly half the home production
in 1870. and II considerably exceeds
the Canadian production In 1907. We
seem to have pretty safe margin
especially IN view of the fact that The
production over fye-year periods is
making appreciabe increases. If. how.
ever, the home consumption should in
crease much more rapidly our own
population would have the benefit of
II and also have those billions of bush
els of corn to fall back on,
