Europe Must Buy
$4,000 900 Bushels
OF Wheat Abroad
Falling OFF in Yield Will
Necessitate Imports Of
100000 Bushels More
This Year Than Last

WASHINGTON, Aug. %. ~ Europe
will have to import 5s2, 100000 bushels
OF wheat this year, or $1,000, 600
bushels more than last year, because
OF the decline in this years produc-
ton, the Commerce Department was
advised to-day by Alfred P. Dennis, it's
representative in Berlin.
Exclusive of Russia this years Euro
pean wheat crop is estimated Mr..
Dennis said, at 1857 100000 bushels.
The total represents a decline OF 1885,
100000 bushels, as compared with last
years phenomenal yield.
This falling off in yield was account
ed for by Mr.. Dennis by reduction
Europe, by unfavorable growing condi-
tions in the winter and early spring
and, in the case Of Germany and Aus
tria, by the lack of fertilizers. The
bulk of the decline, he added, was ac-
counted for in the losses in three
countries, as follows: France, 4S,00O,-
600 bushels; italy, 33,500,O0O bushels.
and Germany, 22,5oo,ooo bushels.
Production in Great Britain, he re-
ported, shows decrease Of per cent,
indicating production in home grown
milling wheat of 100000 bushels
compared to last years production. The
oAiy important gains IN wheat produc-
ton over last year, he declared, are in
Rumania and Poland, where the yields
are estimated at 12,750,0oO bushels and
100000, respectively.
Continental traders are holding off )"
Mr.. Dennis said, cor buying from hand
to mouth, in view of unsettled political
conditions and difficulties of finance.
Due to reports of heavy North Ameri-
can crops. wheat is expected to go
lower in the face Of slack buying, and
the probability of heavy pressure in
the selling of the new American crop.
American producers should be advised
that if Europeans prefer to postpone
buying until their own harvests have
been eaten that strong imperative buy
ing may be anticipated later in the
year. Wheat bread is the one thing
that the dense population Of Western
Europe will not go without"

Bayard Swetenburg is the $bes
salesman in the state, while r. e
Cox and Lowrie Wilson are ready to
give lessons to any one who wants to
