Wheat Production.
The United States Department of
Agrtcaltur;Ll has in response to a very
general inquiry issued abnlletin show-
gthe wheat production and exporta-
tion during the pastfifteen years in the
leading wheat -exporting countries of
the world. The figures are of such a
nature as to confirm the upward ten-
dency of wheat prices, showing as they
do that there lute been as rapidly ex-
panding market in late yearsfor wheat.
and that serious failure of the crops in
any one of the great exporting conn-•
tries must produce sornething in the
nature of a general shortage. The
bulletin gives first the average yearly
,procluet of the principal exporting
Countries arranged :according to five-
year periods. This shotes that while
' on the average the United States pro-
duced yearly, from1881 to1885,435,085.-
744 bushels, the product, was increased
fin the period 1891-1805 to 490,236.218
bushels. Canada produced an average
yf39,200,000 bus aelsyearlyhet ween 1881
and 1885, and 51.405,800yearly between
1931 and 1895. Argentina produced 310,
4) 00,000 bushels yearly in the first period
and 01,000,000 bushels in the second ;
Russia 224,106,611 in the first and 301.-
406,600 in the second ; India 269,721,362
in the first and 224,009,000 ?tt the sec-
ond; Uruguay, which in 1805 hada crop
of 10,000,000 bushels and israpidly tak-
ting a placo'aniong exportingcountries,
imported wheat up till 1891. It willbe
• seen from these figures that all the
countries named except India Kaye
greatly increased their wheat produc-
tion

Ar-
gentina's increase is the most notable,
and it is not improbable that. the Ar-
gentine export willi become within a
few years vastly more important to
Europe than that of North American -
The farmer. or dealer interested in the
price of wheat must keep his eye on
Russia and Argentine, for if these
countries continue to increase export-
ation it during

the past fifteen years they will soon
have complete command of the situa-
tion. The North American agricult-
turist has a better chance of success in
the world's markets with fine products
than in fighting Russia and Argentina
with wheat exports. The c present

scarcity may, and doubtless will, put
up the price materially this year. but
that very increase in price may
stimulate production in both Russia

NOTES AND COMMENTS.
Rev J. H. Fairlie, principle' of the
Ruperts' Landlndustrialschool, writes
to the Winnipeg Nor' -Wester a stiff
reply to the Liberal attack made upon
him because of his refusal to admit
champagne and whiskey into the insti-
tution for the use of Mr. Tarte and
suite on the occasion of the recent in
spection. He says that in view of the
purpose of the school he would have
been guilty of criminal negligence had
he admitted the liquors. As to the
charge that there was a bad smell in
the school, be says he can well under-
stand that "when a dozen men who
baye spent two hours at a bangnet,
where champagne and whiskey and
soda were served, and cigars freely
smoked, get crowded into a small room
it is not eonductive to sweet smells."
He noticed the strong smell himself,
but did not think the officers of the
schooi were to blame. It seenis that
Mr. Fairlie has been at the head of the
school for three weeks only. He was
appointed by the.precent government
to manage it, and he says ." I under-
_. stand my duty, and I daily ask God
for strength to perform it fullyand
fearlessly, even to the extent of for
bidding' so powerful a delegation to
bring whiskey within its walls." The
{nspcetion, which consisted of a two
tours' luncheon and ten minutes' ex-'
.aminaation of the school, was evidently
eehuge jamboree, and the principal
would haave,nothiug to do with it.
