There Will Be No Wheat for Export in the P Eastâ€"Stubble Sowing a Failureâ€"Corâ€" | P rect Estimate of the Field in the Terriâ€" | V tories and Manitoba. £ Manitoba is almost on the eve of her i harvesting season of 1896. This time a | 0 year ago the province presented the apâ€" 1 pearance of an El Dorado. Acres upon $ acres of her fertile plains were teeming | \ with a wheat crop, the most bounteous A in her history; her farmers were jubilâ€" | ant over the prospects of reaping in | riches; and the eyes of Canada were l turned to the endless prairies of the | West. Toâ€"day the situation is changed. For weeks after the harvest season of 1895 the Canadian Pacific railway was taxed beyond its limits to carry out the great crop. This year little, if any, wheat will go east for export. It is useless to close one‘s eyes to the true |situation. Were one to judge from \ the weekly reports issued by the railâ€" |ways that traverse the province he would necessarily form an erroneous 68â€" |timate of the real state of affairs. Those’ ; reports, in several instances, undergo ; |complete alterations before leaving th91 ‘hands of the officials in charge, 80 that â€" |\ when they reach the public through : the press they are anything but correct. , | The safest and perhaps most accurate $ |way in which to form an estimate of the actual crop of 1896 is to follow the n VaskstYe," aansmants ‘nf the many country the press they are anything but correct. The safest and perhaps most accurate way in which to form an estimate of the actual crop of 1896 is to follow the weekly comments of the many country newspapers as to the crop in their reâ€" spective localities. _ A correspondent of the Mail and Empire has done this. He ,has also interviewed several leading grain men and farmers who have been ‘in the city of late. Comparing the inâ€" formation thus obtained with that furâ€" nished by the railway companies, the \ following may be put down as & correct | estimate :â€" ‘ A POOR YIELD. The total wheat yield gt the prqc}\v‘%ce B8E Wl Andns, uce "’m , The total wheat yield of the province | !ar last year was, in round figures, 30,000,â€" fac 000 bushelsâ€"an average yield per ACLO opJ of about twentyâ€"eight bushels. This | ist year the area sown is about seventyâ€"| 04 five per cent. of that of last year. The | 41s reason for this is that farmers Wer® clv kept so busy last year taking in their | 4r harvest that they did little if any fall in ploughing. Much of this diminished | O area included land seeded on the stubâ€"‘hfl \ble without ploughing at all, which is | te ‘alrea.d{_admitted to be all but a comâ€" ed plete failure. _ In addition to this, the | 8 lightning and_ hailstorm of Sunday | !" night, August 2nd, did widespread damâ€" tr age. â€" The telegraphic refport.s of this PM storm, as sent east, in a faint measure | !" Ionly conveyed an idea of the havot it | * created. In some portions of Southern | !" Manitoba it was thirty miles wide, and | !© devastated everything in its path. In| & the vicinity of Baldur alone thirtyâ€"five | 5 \farmers were completely hailed out, | & leaving them not a vestige of a crop. fi .\ From all of these causes it is safe to | ; . \say that the total area of wheat harâ€" | ;, vested in 1896 will not exceed 60 per | , ;\ cent. of that of 1895. 0 â€" COMPARATIVE AVERAGE. _Then as to the comparative averago | / > | yields of the two seasons, Last year,| o | from earliest seeding till the last sheaf | [ was gathered, the conditions were alâ€" | ; . | most uniformly favorable, with the |, 3 | result of the phenomenally large aveI~ | , age yield ; and what was of even more | , _ | favorable consequence, an almost uniâ€" | j f versal high grade sample. It is true | ; that some of the crops was damaged by || t frost, but rot enough to materially alâ€" | ; t | ter the results. This has been an "off ‘â€" | season." _ The weather conditions have || * \ been anything but favorableâ€"fitfully wet and fitfuily dryâ€"and those of temâ€" vyâ€"| perature have been equally erratic, one sâ€" | outcome of the latter being an attack nâ€" | of rust, which is something almost new to Manitoba. Altogether it may be | m | safely said, that, with â€"all eondit,lons\ ag | from now till the end of harvesting favâ€" eq | orable, an averagoe of twelve bushe to the acre is a liberal estimate. ‘I‘© iÂ¥â€" ing the figure data given as factors, = he simple arithmetical â€" "rule of three" at operation demonstrates that the total *| yield of wheat in Manitoba this seaâ€" ce | son will be less than 12,000,000 bushels. | ;;f LOW GRADE WHEAT. : Then, as for. the sample, for ob agsâ€" vious reasons it is already apgarent cpâ€" that there must be much wheat of @a igâ€" low grade. One week ago the Red , _ | River valley crop looked Eoor' indeed i but favorable weather has mcreased m its chances many fold. er HIGH PRICES EXPECTED. riti Reports from the Territories would indicate that they are .generslly faring ing, | better_than Manitoba in respect to the » a .‘ | maturing wheat crop. But as yet, V PMNELLC C L La+~ valaimer is mCUE Ls® â€" CC CCY Te MB while considerable wheat raising 18 , done there, it does not bulk up much in comparison with Manitoba. It can be reasonably expected, however, as%oâ€" ially seeing that ‘Minnesota and the Daâ€" kotas, the only other Part of the world producing the pecu iar bhard wheat which is so much sought after by all merchant millers to temper up their flour, are also unfortunate in this year‘s crop, that wheat of milling grade in Manitoba and the, Territories . Will command a comparatively high price. noTHING FOR EXPORT. It is the belief that not a bushel of wheat will be exported this year ; and farmers who still have on hand a porâ€" tion of last year‘s crog are almost certain to obtain a high price for it.

THE $CEOOLS OF LOMDON: SYNOPSIS OF THE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE WORKS COMMITTEE, What it Costs the World‘s Metropolis in Buildings for Education â€" Laundries, Cookeries, and Workshops Providedâ€"A Great Record. Few people can form an idea of the magnititude of the work of the London School Board. The annual report of the Works Committee of that board, which has just been issued contains a record of the progress made in the provision of accommodation which has been sancâ€" tioned by the board and the Education Department. During the year ended | 1 March 25th last compulsory pOWeTs I were obtained over 26 sites for new | C schools ard additional land for 42 exâ€" |©® isting schools. The scheduling of 57 |} other sites, either for new schools or | 1 for enlarging existing ones, is being || proceded with. The board agreed to |! purchase during the past 12 months | various interests in sites at & cost of | £104,243, the surveyors‘ fees amountâ€" ing to £1,177. All the sites purchased or agreed to be purchased previous to March 25th, 1895, were valued at £2,â€" 985,8307, and the vosts in connection with them amounted to £418,453. The |tctal cost, therefore, of the sites pUuIâ€" |\ chased up to the end of the year unâ€" | der review was £3,0809,550, with costs | amounting to £419,630. The total numâ€" | ber of permanent schools which had .\ been erected and opened to Lady day ; | last was 406, and these included three additional schools opened during the B | year, besides which 20 enlargements had > | also been completed. _ ‘The. three new s schoolsâ€"including sites, buildings, and furnitureâ€"had cost £87,848, and the acâ€" 8 | Commodation was for 3,918 children, e | showing an average cost of £22 8s. 54. n | per head ; while the enlargements, C which will give additional accomodation for 5,971 children, had cost £128,618, e) or £21 10s. 94. per head.
