The aggregate production is placed
at 2,222,9 900 bushels, or 92.6 PER
cent OF the fve-year average The
countries are Spain, England and
Wales, ireland, Norway. The Neither
lands. Rumania, the forty-eight govern
ments of European Russia, Switzerland,
Canada, the United States, India, japan,
Egypt and Tunis.
A better showing IL made in other
grains. Nine countries report a rye
crop Of 936,946,000 bushels, 944 per
cent Of last years crop and HAS per
cent of the average. Fourteen give a
barley crop Of 958,573, 900 bushels, 90

Is New York facing the possibility

Down on the cor 81 the New York

more about grains tran men gathered

TO be pessimistic on the matter OF ms
crops. together with his ability TO pro
duce marvellous amounts OF grain, the
existence of which may not be sus-
pected once the price is high enough
complexities the situation.
But making all due allowance ior
these factors, they estimate that atter
