ties the crop has been entirely har-
vested, and threshing is in progress,
with good yields mentioned. Oats are
ripening, but the crop will be short
farmers say, because of the prolonged
drought. The outstanding feature of
the July crop is the short hay pros
pect. In some localities hay is a near
failure, clover hay being especially
poor. The fruit crops suffered keenly
from the drought, but notwithstand-
ing, some orchadists report a good
prospect. There is a general complaint
of shortage of the proper kinds Of
farm labor. Some farmers mention us
ing women in the harvesting of the
grain crops. The corn crop is in gen.
eral good to excellent condition, but
growing on less acreage than in 1922"

DOLLAR WHEAT
[From the New York Herald

From the New York Herald
Wheat fell to 81 a bushel in the
Chicago market on Tuesday of this
week, and yesterday it broke to So
cents. This is not only the lowest
price at which it has been sold dur
ing the present season, but below the
pre-war price. The average price for
the five years before the war was
$104a. These are prices on the ex-
change. Owing to the higher railroad
freight rates now in force the price
on the farm is further below the pre-
war price than is the price on the ex-
change.
When it is considered that the
wheat farmer must pay his labor ap-
proXimately twice as much as he did
in 1913, and that he must pay an av-
erage of at least go per cent more for
things he buys with whatever net re-
ceipts happen to be left to him, his
present position can be understood.
The statement that wheat is selling
below cost. of production seems fully
justified.
The present low price Of wheat is
not primarily the result of a bumper
crop in the United States. The latest
estimate of this years crop, made pub
lie this week by the Department of
is S21,0OO,O0O bushels.
This compSres with a 1922 crop of
1862, 100000 bushels and an average
