As a matter of , fact wheat production Is decreasing over there as the land becomes more valuable und by reason of the demand for other forms of produce for liomo consumption It III said that the wheat crop this year Is not moro than 70 per cent. oC the crop of 1901 and much below the crops of 1902 and 1903 It Is estimated that this year the UnIted States surplus for export will not be over 100,000,000 , which is less than any year since 1878 with two exceptions. Not only Is this the case , but a considerable quantity of the best Canadian wheat Is being Imported - ported , Into Minnesota and also Chi- cago.
