Reasons for this altered situation in
leading agricultural commodities are
found in world developments. These
are:
l. Inability of Russia to continue
last years record of exports, which to-
tailed 100000 bushels, owing to slow
farm collections, poor quality of wheat,
the threat of trouble in Manchuria is
dissipated. Russia last week exported
HOO 900 bushels compared with $780,
900 for the same week last year.
2. Crop shortages in France and Ger
many, where a wet harvest played havoc
with Yields and where a short potato
crop complexities the foodStuffS prob
lem. Heavy foreign buying OF American
grain has been a recent feature.
3. Sales of 67,500000 bushels of Farm
Board wheat from the Sterilization Cor
poration holdings of over 100000, 900
bushels. This relieved the market OF
the fear of dumping.
4. Dry weather over the Winter wheat
area, where the new crop has had a
much less suspicious start than it re-
ceived a year ago. Winter wheat acre
age is estimated to be reduced Is per
cent.
S. Partial failure of the Canadian
crop, where z50,00o,000 bushels were
IdlSCO, COIApdACo W4t1A q A1OA A.ol zOO,-
600, 000- bushel crop. Also a failure in
our Spring wheat belt, where scarcely
100000 900 bushels were grown, COM
pared with a normal crop of 225, 000, 900
bushels. This accounts for $1.03
bushel paid for premium grade amber
durum wheat during the week at Min
neapolis.
6. Smaller acreage in the Southern
Hemisphere, with the Argentine crop
officially reported 10 per cent smaller in
acreage than a year ago. Adverse grow
ing conditions also are reported.
These developments indicate changed
world outlook in wheat. But trade au-
thorities believe that the recent price
advance has discounted all of the ia
vorable developments up to the present.
They are inclined to attribute talk of
Gollar-a-bushel wheat to the propaganda
of spectators seeking to interest the
public.
Gains already made are Of more than
usual Importance to the farmer. Trade
Statisticians advise that nearly go per
cent Of the 1891 crop still remains on
farms. compared with a normal holding
at this time of less than so per cent.
Around 400,000,000 bushels of wheat
alone Is still available for sale by the
farmer at the higher-p price level now
prevailing.

Faviorites Places
Wolverines Qualify Seven Men
in Finals Of Big Ten In
door Track Meet

Madison, Wis. March, 7.-(P)-
Michigan, Illinois and Ohio State
Saturday stood out as front rank
contenders for the 1891 western con-
ference indoor track title which will
be decided In the University of Wis
consin field house Saturday night.
The Wolverines, who Friday night
qualified three men in the 60-yard
dash, one each in the mile, half mile
and 440-yard runs and another in
the 60-yard high hurdles. were slight
favorites to take the title defended
by Wisconsin, but the struggle vas
considered a wide open affair.
Wisconsin's hope of repeating its
victory of last year. was virtually
ruined when Captain Bill Henke,
counted as a certain winner of the
440-yard dash. was forced to drop
out Of competition because Of a pull
ed tendon. The loss of Henke's po-
tcntial five points, left the Badgers
with only a slim hope Of being among
the first three teams.
Ohio State qualified a pair Of bril-
liant ~sophomores, Bill Blor and Jack
Keller. in the half mile and high
hurdles respectively. Rupert Beetham
Jr., also won a place in the half mile,
az we'll as in the mile. Illinois got
Lee Sentiment into the hurdles,
Thompson and Woolsey In the mile,
and Witte and Captain Cave in the
60-yard dash. and counted heavily on
points in other finals to aid its cause.
Michigan's qualifiers were Eddie
Tolan, Jack Campbell and Smythe
in the 60-yard dash; Almon Wolfe in
the mile, Turner In the half mile and
Ed Russell in the quarter. Indiana
came up with Brocksmith in the
raile, Bates in the half mile, and
Hatfield in the hurdles, to 60 with
points the HOLSTERS expect in the two
mile. Is
Dale Let's, Chicagors fine middle
distance performer, appeared as the
successor to Orval Martin, Purdue. as
the mile and half mile champion.
Let's easily qualified in both events
but did not come close to his best
time in either.
Minnesota qualified n man. Iowa
had two. Purdue one, while North
western failed to get a man through.

Grtffiths employed a jolting

Avalon, Santa Catalina Island, Cal,
March 7.-(R-Activities at the Chi
cago Cubs training lair here presage
bigger and more frequent base hits
than last season.
Rogers Hornsby, playing pilot, has
all the details worked out to put the
hardest hitting nine ever into the
National league 1881 race, except tor
the small matter Of sorting out q log
ical batting order. and he has
dropped several hints along this line.
Lewis Robert Wilson, otherwise
known as Hack, the 1880 home run
king with his So circuit wallops, is the
individual around whom such plans
are laid, but the rajah also hoped to
figure in q vital fashion In the
scheme Of things.
In1ield Il Stronger
AS batting averages go, the Cubs
infield appears to be many points
stronger than In 1880. The rajah
can't think Of enough compliments
for Woody English, shortstop. and his
words always run In this trend:
He Is fast and smart aud II he
doesn't better his 1896 hitting mark Of
last year, then. I'm no Judge OF base
ball players"
What Chicago's infield does lack is
a bunch of ball banging reserves, but
in the outfield there seems to be
nothing to wish for.
The Cubs regular outfield, com.
posed Of Wilson, Riggs Stephenson,
and Kiki Cuyler, averaged 1853 at the
bat last year. yet optimistic Hornsby
thinks he can squeeze but stu = lew
more hits.
He proposes to do It by shifting
Wilson to right field, where he Will
be saved for more base running. II
this Is done, Cuyler viii move to CEN
