Record Wheat Crop Reported.
CHICAGO, March 25.-Every pres.
ent indication points to all wheat crop
records in the history OF the country
being broken for 1915. However, &C.
cording to B. w. Snow, chief statisti.
cal expert for Bartlett Frazier and
Company, 1t would be more guess
work now to attempt to estimate the
1915 grain crop In bushels. There is
possibility, he declared, today, for q
crop OF 10000, 900 bushels, but be.
cause no one can tell what the wealth.
er actually will be until the crop Is
cut, It would not be surprising il the
yield ran as low as 100000, 900 BUSH
els. Last years total winter and
spring crop was S91, 100000 bushels.
with conditions similar to condi-
tions last year." said Snow, ''the 1915
crop should break all records Last
year &c, 10000 acres of wheat yielded
a winter crop OF 6S5. 100000 bushels.
This year the winter acreage Is be-
tween 41.O00O00 and 42.O00,000. So
far weather conditions have been ex-
ceedingly encouraging for bumper
crops This weather announcement
has been particularly apparent in
Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska. the
dry states. So FAR there has been
every bit a. much moisture in those
states this year as there was in 1914"
Snow explained that r. Is even
more a matter OF haphazard guess
work to forecast estimates Of other
grains than OF wheat. Oats, he ex.
planned, are just being seeded. the
delay having been caused by too
much rain west OF the Mississippi.
The noted grain expert refused to
predict possibilities of higher or low
er wheat and -four prices, except to
say that he believed that the old law
of supply and demand together with
lessons learned from war conditions
would hold. !.

Company to Build parapet.

According to the provisions OF the
ordinance, the bridge company now
has ninety days in which to con-
struct the parapet In the middle OF
block five on which the western end
Of the viaduct is to rest and to which
the city is to construct the roadway
at the expense of the bridge company
Since 1t will be necessary to make
fill on which a part OF the roadway
is to be built, the council Is anxious
to get this fill completed in order
that it may have as much time as pos
sible to settle before the surface is
paved and the sidewalks constructed.
The fill will not be made until after
the parapet has been constructed
and it is probable that the bridge
company will have this work done
within short length Of time. The
parapet Is to be located about mid
way between Water and First streets
Just south OF Blondeau street, IN
block five.

It takes the salary of the treasurer
