CANADIAN WHEAT.

Importation Of wheat from Canada
during October Of this year amounted
to five times that Of any October in
the last seven years, according to an
analysis of figures released lately by
the Federal Trade commission.
Quick action when congress con-
vencs with view Of stopping the
heavy influx Of Canadian wheat and
wheat products, is expected.
However. that sapient old adago
anent the locking of tho stable door
after the horse is stolen, would
seem to apply in this instance. The
mischief is already done, granting
that Canadian wheat importations
have had any pronounced influence
on the Chicago market. Unless
world conditions bring about trc-
mendous price reaction in the
spring, as predicted by Prophet
Pickel, the grower who still holds
his wheat, and his name is legion,
has lost out through failing ut the
right time to take advantage Of the
greatest price bulge in the history
of the we'll known cereal.
A fat, chirpy and attractive price
bird awaited the hand Of the wheat
grower in the fall, just "honing" to
be grasped. Those who missed the
tempting prize in the hope OF getting
two birds next spring, are confronted
now with the fruits Of mistaken
Judgment. and really have no lcgiti-
mate grounds Of complaint against
Uncle Sam for failing to maintain
wheat tariff wall against his Can
adian cousins. They failed to realize
that wheat had reached an abnormal
figure under post-bellum conditions.
and that the chances were far more
likely for sharp decline rather
than further swelling of an already
swollen price.
Yet it is improbable that Canadian
have cut or will cut any,
figure in the face Of the
worlds supply and demand law gov
crning the wheat market. With
other minor factors Canadian wheat.
is certain to have a temporary in
fluence, but in the end the market
on a large scale only to
world conditions. This phase Is sue
entity set forth as follows in the

the drop Of prices in this country.
We do not see that these importa-
tions can be an important factor, in
view Of the fact that both countries
arc on an exporting basis and COM
pcting with each other in Europe.
OF course the Canadian crop is a
factor in prices everywhere, but il it
was all sent to Liverpool 1t would
displace the same amount Of our
wheat that it does here. II it was
burned or Summarized, it would be
put out Of the way, but so long as it
is offered in common markets with
ours the particular market is as un-
important as whether Dakota wheat
is sold in Minneapolis or Chicago.
"one hundred and seventy million
bushels Of wheat, inclusive Of -four,
have been exported from North
America to Europe since the first Of
July, Of which more than 80 percent
was produced in the United States.
This country and Canada are practi-
cally one source of supply for Eu-
rope, and if Canadian wheat was
prevented from coming into our
markets it would go to Europe
direct"
As a matter of fact, of much more
concern to the American grower at
the present time than Canadian
wheat, is the hundred million bushels
which it is reported. Australia will
have available for export in Janu-
ary. Herein is real jolt which by
foresighted selling on the profitable
fall market could have been avoided
