EXPERT REPORT
OF YEARS. CROP
MARKET RECORD REVIEWS CON.
pITIoNs AND THEIR EFFECT
UPON THE ..MARkET.-.THE
GRAIN Is OF FINE QUALITY
YIELD SMALL.

The following summary of the crop
conditions in the northwest and the
effect Of these conditions upon the
markets is given in a recent issue of
The Market Record:
The August crop report gives the
country assurance OF a good average
wheat production. Sectional losses
do not appear in the aggregate and
1t Is the total volume that appeals
1t will be said that the 1910 wheat
harvest Is very satisfactory, but of
course, it is not because in part Of the
northwest the outcome Of the spring
wheat is little short of a failure.
Some expressions were heard when
the condition on spring wheat was
given out recently that the decline
shown by the government OF 0.6 pointE
was not enough because IL was well
known that the extremely high tenn
perature that visited the northwest the
early part Of July did immense damage
Even the most conservative people of
the local trade reported the damage
severe. 1t will be noted, however that
the government accounts for this loss
but confines II to North Dakota when
a further loss is reported during July
of IL points. Following a condition Of
only 45 per cent in July a condition
of "a per cent in August certainly
testifies to a terrific loss.
The Market Record at the time the
July report was issued was inclined
to believe that the government had
put Minnesota too low. The moder-
ate reduction in spring wheat for
August is accounted for by the rails
ing Of the condition figures in Min
nesota and also in South Dakota.
The three states are given a produce
tion of 154,000,000 bushels which re-
presents a loss from last year of 49,
10000 bushels.
One point. however, is worthy of
consideration; a drought crop is one
of excellent quality. The receipts of
new spring wheat now arriving in
the local market are grading well.
The reports from North Dakota are
that the short straw is full headed
and yielding excellent wheat. The
high quality given to the winter
wheat in the August report insures
a high quality 1910 production so that
the harvest as a whole, will be sat-
isfactory for a milling consideration
as we'll as for the exporter when Eu-
rope comes to the United States to
fill out the 1910 deficiency in sup
plies.
From a speculative standpoint the
report suggests a bearish interpreta-
ton. The crop is certainly ample for
home requirements and to supply a
surplus Of considerable volume. The
crop, however, is, as 1t was last year
mostly in the farms. The initial
movement Of winter wheat has been
fairly heavy and the first run Of
spring wheat promises to be freer
than many had anticipated. The
price portions at the moment is a
hard matter to guage unless one stands
upon the general principle that there
Is not any too much wheat in the
world this season.

they say. every one has been so ex-

The building is strictly modern, and
having the new cafeteria in connec~

the comfortable rest room, sitting room,

homelike as could be wished for. Miss

be carried out this fall, and she has
them all in the nature OF committed

mittee have been interviewed pertain
ing to the fall plans, but they are notl
yet ready to make announcements.
They have given the assurance, how
ever, that they are to do more work,
and better work than they did last
fall, which is saying a good deal. The
people of Fargo. Moorhead and vicinity
will have an opportunity Of attending
a reception within a few weeks which,
is to be given by the association. anal
1t will be one of the most prominentl
social events in the city this fall.

HINTS ABOUT THE HOME.
BY Rose Terrell.

Now the thrifty housewife will
purchase goods for next summers

are offered at a wonderfully low price
at the end of the summer season. 1t
is wise to buy white goods when Of

woman who has laid in almost her
whole supply of next summers goods.
She has taken advantage of sales ju-
diciously. Never purchasing things
just because they were cheap, but be-
cause she knew when and for what she
could use them. This Is the truest
economy and one which is recommend
ed to all who live on a limited in
come. The objection Is sometimes
made that new goods in new colors
will come next year.
That is true. but the woman who Is
a true economist will not attempt to
keep up with the latest novelties. She
cannot afford to buy eolors and fab
RIGS that will last but one season. She
must be content with the staple ging-
hams, organdies. reps and white goods
that will always be good style, though
thew may not be the very latest thing.
Shoes are never good bargain to
lay in for another season. Styles in
footwear change so that shoes that
look charming this year will be rele-
gated to the ash bin next season.
Hats are never advisable at the bar

instances, and then in styles and
straws that may be twisted into al
most any shape for. the next season.

In their Christmas gifts Of dainty
handkerchiefs during the season when

many that a Christmas gift that is a
bargain is degraded, but that is the
veriest nonsense. Gifts are not given
for what they cost but for love, If one
deals honestly with themselves. Then
it is wise and kind to give within the
limits of ones purse, and when the

fancy work at the summer sales. Do
not forget the dress trimmings which
are sold at half price at this time of
