Outlook for Abundant Harvest
Is Very Bright.
CHANCE OF DROUGHT SLIGHT
Most Of Years Gain Is Credited by
Government Estimates to Corn
and Oats-GraIn Traders Take
6earish View of Situation.

Chicago, July 10. - In round mum.
bers there are $50 ,00O, 900 bushels
more of the four principal grains
wheat. corn, oats and barley-in the
United States than was harvested last
year. This, at least is the estimate
announced by the department of agri
culture at Washington in its July re,
port.
In detail the outlook is for 100000
bushels more wheat, $50, 900, 900 bush.
els more corn, 217,0o0.00O bushels
more oats and 34.000,000 bushels
more barley. The report also shows
100000 bushels more potatoes than
last year, and, although the hay acre.
age is not yet all in, it is safe pre-.
sumption that it will show up vastly
larger than a year ago, when dry
weather had cut the total down by
over 100000 tons from that of the
ordinary average.
Grain traders placed a rather bear
ish construction on the crop report
Although the total wheat figures were
far less than We're indicated at this
SihC iool SNdl lue lIdue kept IN NINA
the vast difference in weather, soil
and plant conditions now as compared
to then. Reserves of moisture in the
subsoil now are good, the spring
wheat plant healthy and vigorous and
the winter crop nearly all harvested
At this time last year a condition Of
extreme drought that had prevailed
for months was just breaking, but it
had created deterioration of twenty
one points in spring wheat during
June, reducing the prospect to total
OF 245,000,000 bushels, which, be-
cause of the weather losses, was later
cut down to 1911 100000 bushels The
present spring wheat promise is for
yield of 271 .000,000 bushels.
The indicated total crop is 629, 0OO,-
OOO0 bushels of winter and spring, as
compared with 621 900 900 bushels. the
final official report of last year. Farm
reserves are over 10000, 900 bushels
less than last year. or 23,S76 900 bush
els, as against "a, OH 900 bushels. 1t
would be an easy matter in the event
of unfavorable weather to cut the
spring wheat crop down materially.
but the trade is very skeptical on this
point.
