A HOPEFUL CROP OUTLOOK

Wheat is now in the "shot blade,
or, in other words, the heads are just
ready to shoot out, and the wheat
harvest will be on within 80 days.
These next 80 days will be critical
days for the whole Northwest, for on.
the weather Of this period will large
ly depend the outcome of this years
wheat .and small grain crop.
At the present time there IS In
prospect an unusually fine crop OF
wheat in North Dakota-but hot.
blighting winds in July might yet 40
much damage to it. Old pioneers OF
the state, however, say that there
is the probability Of cool july
judging from past years. So far TINS
has been an ideal wheat growing sea-
son, and the belief of the oldtimer
is that it will continue SO.
But whether it does or not, there
is one consoling factor for the whole
agricultural area of the Northwest,
and that is a marked Improvement IN
prices on all of the main grain crops
and much of the other principal prod
ucts of the region.
One year ago, July 3, 1928, the price
of No. / Northern wheat in Fargo was
SO cents bushel and Durum wheat
was 81 cents. On July 3, this year,
No. l Northern wheat was $1.22 a
bushel in Fargo and Durum wheat
was S1.0S.
A wear ago No. white oats were 36
cents in Fargo; barley was AZ cents;
No. rye was 40 cents. This year
on July found white oats at as
cents; barley at SIS cents and rye 1T
IS cents.
A year ago butterfat was selling in
Fargo at 81 cents a pound, packing
stock butter at Is cents and eggs at
$50 a case. This year butterfat is
Al cents; packing stock, "a cents, and
eggs $500 a case.
Flax is the only item of the plincl-
pal agricultural products quoted
daily in The Forum that shows fall
ing off in price. A year ago flax
was selling at 1926 Il bushel. This
year it is s1.l9.
This general advance, in every
thing the farmer has to sell, IS en-
couraging. 1t proves one thing con-
clusively: the great economic laws OF
supply and demand are slowly but
surely bringing about that balance
which was, certain to follow con-
tinued depressed price of the products
of one class of producers. while much
higher prices were obtained for the
| nroduct. Of other classes of pro-
ducers.
With much better crop and much
better prices in prospect than year
ago. thssfarmers of the state are
facing brighter situation than tol
years, which means more hopeiu'
outlook for the whole state.-Farge
