Large Wheat Crop. Tne June report of the Depart ment of Agriculture indicates that a big wheat crop may be ex pected. The present harvest out look is for 781,000,000 bushels spring and winter wheat. The nearest approach to this in the past was 748,000,000, the yield of last year. As an index to the steady development of the agri cultural interests of the country the figures are significant when compared with those of previous years. For example, the wheat harvest for 1803 was 306,000.000, just half that estimated for the present year. The report just issued reflects damages done to crops in Kansas and Missouri by the floods. In winter wheat there is a disease in the condition of 10 points in Kansas. This, however puts the crop 23 above the condi tion on June 1st a year ago. A loss of 17 points is reported from Missouri, and this brings the con dition down to a basis that is 26 points below that of last year. The average condition of the wheat crop for the entire country is given at 82.2, a decline of 10.4 points compared with the esti mate of May 1st of this year, and comparing with 70.1 the record of June 1st, 1902. A quantative estimate based on these percent ages and the acreage planted places the yield of this winter crop at 483,362,000. This exceeds the high water record of 1901 by 25,000,000 bushels. Spring wheat conditions are reported at 9?.9 and the indicative yield is 298,- 546,000 bushels. This estimate is a record breaker in the history of the wheat crop of the country. NI:l:BM0RE.
