Russian Wheat Production

An enormous crop Of wheat has
been grown in Russia this year plac-
ing that land for the first time at the
head of wheat growing countries lts
harvest of 7S2 100000 bushels exceeds
that of the United states by &c 100000
bushels. and is greater thirn its own
previous record by about lo0,o090o0
bushels The DEVELOPMENT of wheat
growing has been most rapid along
the line of the Trans Siberian railway
AS the home consumption is small in
proportion to population. this has
made Russia one of the great sources
of supply for The rest OF the world
France consumes much of the wheat
that it grows. The present price of
wheat In the United States, hen
placed against the surplus product Of
Russia, makes it more difficult for this
country to hold its place as an e1
porter of that cereal.
