Reports from dry goods centers are good, but buyers of tire raw mate rial are somewhat renictatit with their purchases. The speculative element seem* to work for lower prices In an ticipation of a good government crop report In August. Tho Chicago Record-Herald: E. B. Wood- worth, of Minneapolis, says: “We have bad three men out covering North Dakota, look ing up the crops, and our advices do not in dicate much over a half crop in the northern half of the state. Business men-and bank- era concur In this view. The southern hslf of the stnto looks better, lmt the durum acreage In thnt section Is larger, That part of North Dakota having the largest spring wheat acreage has the poorest prospects. Wheat la beglnnlug to head out and the bends are geuernlly short. The stand Is poor nnd uneven, much of the straw being so short thnt It can not be cut with a hinder. The crop Is uneven, nnd there are, of course, some good fields. There are fields that will not be cut and a good many ■fields nre being plowed up. James Blmpaon. of New York, the well- known oats specialist, estimates the,total crop this year nt 725.000,000 bushels, as com pared with 064,000,000 bushels ns the govern ment final figures of last yenr. 'My fig- are based largely on what 1 have Falls on my way out. I made n fairly ful canvass and have set Illinois down ror less than 100,000,000 bushels, lows at 100,- 000,000 to 110.000.000 bushels nnd Wisconsin nt about Bo,000,000 bushels. I do not take snv stock In tho predictions that Wisconsin ill ship no oats.” J. A. Waring, who has lust completed nn examination of the largest producing wheat sections of the Canadian Northwest nnd tho states this side for Wrlgbt-IIogert, re- turned Thursday and summarlaed all of his reports. “I believe thnt the northwestern states and the Canadian Northwyat cun not possibly raise moro than two-thirds to three-fourth# of Inst year’s crop of wheat under the most favorable circumstances,’’ said he. “The things to !>e feared up there are hot winds now anJ frost ft little later. Wheat looks fairly g<M*l on new land, but rather poor on old. The crop on the new lend Is fully n week ahead of that on the old.
