THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : TUESDAY' JULY 12 1881. Cropi in Europe. Whoever has wntchml tlio Is European cablegrams concerning t condition of the crops must bo cc vinccd that the greater part of the embody mere rumors circulated spoculatorc , principally on this side water , to raise or depress prices the interest of their own scliomi The only way to determine the degr of credit that should bo accorded the announcemonta is to compare the with the regular weekly crop ropoi published in European agricultui papers. True , these usually rca this side of the Atlantic from ton fourteen days later than the cab ! gmms , but as it is hjghly improbal than any very material injury or bon fit should occur to crops generally that interval when any grcatdlflbron is reported , it is safer to trust tl agricultural papers , which nro near always honest , than the cablegram which' nro often "meant to cl coivo , " From a careful study all attainable reliable sourc of Into information , wo have como the conclusion that Europe this ye will bo more nearly self-silpportii than it has been nt any time since tl rctent enormous iticrcano in the pr duction nnd exportation of Amoricr cereals. Although the production i breadstulFa in tno United Kingdoi great as it was before the present 01 of | agricultural depression , yet seems now certain that the Imrvc : there will bo at least moderately goeThe < The latest reports , both by mail mi cable , while still speaking dcsponi ontly of the agricultural condition i a whole , give strong assurance of condition of crops less nnsatisfactoi than at the corresponding season will in the last five years. The present condition of the gro\ ing wheat ill Franco , according to tl latest received issue , of the Somali Agricolo , is admirable , and still In'ti cablegrams confirm the statomen For tlio first time since America b gan to supply the deficiencyof Fronc crops , there is a fair prospect tin Franco will produce more than onoufi of wheat to supply domestic consumj tion , and all oilier crops , too , seem I bo doing fairly. In Germany the wheat and rj crops are likely to turn out an ave : ago , and the latest advices , ' both.tuli graphic andiniaih from Austria , Ilui gary , the Spanish Peninsula , Itnlj Switzerland , Bulgaria , and Boumanir all speak in enthusiastic .or hopefi terms of the outlook for tho1 Imrvoa Of all European countries , howovei the prospect in Russia seems tli most favorable. Reports frqmOdessi Taganrog , Sobastoppl , NicaluioiT an Carkow , all unite in prophesying bettor wheat crop in Sou them , .Husa this year than in the lost twont ; Some time must yet elapse before tt European harvest , however splondii can como into market , and the nooi of the various countries must , unl then , bo supplied mostly from tli country. It is , therefore , not it probable that the coming harvest h assumed a brighter hue both fro contrast with the late gloomy on and from a not unnatural desire lower the prices of the brcadstu tliat may bo wanted from abroad b fore the days of plenty , by showii how slight will bo the demand f any foreign surplus when QJICO tl homo harvest nna boon gathoro < After having made all reasonable d ductions , however , on the acoro exaggeration , it Booms highly probal that almoflt the only European mark for our surplus broadstuua next ft and winter , will bo in the Uniti Kingdom , and vfhilo the need- foreign supplies will bo somowh loss there than last year , the compel tion between foreign surpluses fro Russia , Egypt , India , Australia , Nt Zealand , South America , the Unit States and Canada , will bo keen than over before.

It is , too , a most e collont food for fish , prolitlo and ho dy. It is bettor suited than any oth fish for this latitude , as it likus wai waters , and , will live in pqiiaY' whc none but the cat-fish-pouts' , chubs a : like fish will survive.

A pond 'say of fifty f ( square is largo enough for 4 young carp where they c bo kept until throe to six months ol yrhon they may bo transferred to ptli suitable waters. , They will not sent frohi Washington or other broc ing places until fall or winter , a when sent will bo to some convenic railroad point. Applications can made to the members of congress fn this district by these who have su able ponds us far as the allotted nu bor will go. Wo hope some one in on county of the district will provide the reception of this valuable fish , it is hotter suited to this locality tli any of the varieties furnished to < rivers.

These purclms consist entirely of copper produced the Lake Superior region , and a believed to equal nearly the onti amount that will bo produced durii the last half of the year. The oponii of now mines in various sections i the country haa of late increased tl production to an extent considerab' in excess of market requirement and to this is attributed the absom of any material enhancement of prii by the exceptionally largo businc just consummated.
