indications are thst the wheat orop
tf isas will be the greatest In the his
lory of tho country. From figoree that
nro bt'ing oollectwl and complied by
some ol the big Chicago flrme, based on
the reports of experts in every section
ot the country, the oncoming wheat
crop it) estimated to exceed 850,000,000
bnshels. All the conditions are report
ed aa being of the moat favorable na
ture, and while there is a decrease in
acreage the total yield will be more
than double that of 1897. In the fall
of 1896 there waa an extraordinary in
crease in acreage, bat the condition
were inch that a large share of the
crop waa plowed op the following
spring, and at harvest time much of
the remaining orop waa not worth oat
ting. Kaneaa looms up aa the banner
, state this year, an Increase of 28 per
cent in the acreage having been report
ed. intimates on the yield vary all
the way from 70,000,000 bnshela to
100,000,000 bushels, while the com
binod orops of Kansas, Nebraska and
Oklahoma is estimated at 160,000,000
bushels. Of this 80,000,000 to 40,000,
000 bushels are credited to Oklahoma
and Kansas will have 80,000,000 to
80,000,000 bnshels.
As compared with the planting in
Illinois In the fall of 1898, there baa
been a decrease of 18 per cent in the
acreage, bnt in spite ot this the condi
tions in the Sucker State are about the
same as in Missouri, and the apparent
decrease in acreage is discounted by
the amount of wheat that was plowed
up In the spring of last year. The
1897 crop in Illinois amounted to a lit
tle lees than 10,000,000 bushels,
whereas it is generally conceded that
this year's crop will be nearly, if not
fully, treble, or between 85,000,000
and 80,000,000 bushels. Texas will
have a 30,000,000 bushel crop. Never
before has the wheat looked so fine in
the lone Star state as ia does now.
The harvest will be unusually early
and agents writing to their bouses here
report that a great part of the crop will
be harvested and ready for shipment in
June.

were as much In ignorance of her ulti

world. Captain Clark was told to make
Collao his first stopping place. The
big vessel, with Its tremendous load of
guns and protecting turrets, ran Into
heavy sea before It bad got out of
Bight of California's promontories.
The captain' orders did not provide
for a return. The ship's prow had
been headed for the coast of Peru and
the eounse was never changed in spite
of protracted bad weather. While
many tons of etcel were pounding on
the raclfic the men who direct the
game of war and nse the warships as
so many pieces at chess were debating
what disposition should be made of the
redoubtable " floating battery. To

Great anxiety was felt for the "pride
of the navy" when April 1 came and
she had not been sighted off the coast
of rem, as expected, bnt on April 8 the
bold line of the battleship were de
scribed off Callao. She had fought a
long battle with the elements, but had
come out victorious without a mark.

progress of the vessel southward after
leaving Callao was attended by great
danger owing to storms, and for that
reason the Oregon coaled in the Straits
of Magellan instead of attempting to
enter the harbor of Valparaiso. When
the Joint resolution of Congress de
clared the Cuban people should be free
and that Spanish sovereignty was at
an end on the Western continent, Cap
tain Clark was only twenty-four hours
behind schedule time. The Oregon was
the first warship in history to round

and said they would prevent any clash

Oregon Built In the West,
All the material for the construction
and armament of the Oregon came
from the far Western States. The Iron
mines of California, Oregon, Washing
ton, Nevada, Colorado, and New Mex
ico supplied the crude metal which was
afterward converted into steel for the
hull, great strips of armor and ponder
ous castings for the guns. The big bat
tleship was built by the Union Iron
Works, Son Francisco. On her trial
trip an average of 10.70 knots was
maintained and 11,111 horsepower was
developed, 2411 hi excess of the con
In size the Oregon Is only surpassed
by one ship In the navy the Iowa.
The displacement of tbe Pacific-born
monster is 10,288 tons. The excess
weight of the Iowa comes from her
high decks, which are supposed to
make her more seaworthy. When the
Oregon was constructed she was In
tended for coast service, her designers
never thinking of a record-breaking
cruise equal to more than half tbe dis
tance around the earth's surface. Tbe
Oregon is supplied with bunkers that
give her a coal capacity of 1,504 tons.
This enables ber to steam 4,500 miles
without recoallng. The Oregon's com

The intoreatlng "wot process" of
trading copper from pyrites, In una
near Antwerp, is described in a paper
reud before the Association of tlrad
nates of the Ghent Technical Bohool
by L. Prcdn, From this it appears
that the ore. oonlalnln from three to
four nor cent of copper, li wasted,
crushed and roasted with salt. The
chlorinated ore In quantities of twenty
five tons is twice washed with some
600 gallons of water, then with the
waste liquor from the precipitating
tanks, then with dilute warm sulphuric
acid, and finally with warm water,
The washed ore at lust contains only
0. per cent of copper. Tbe liquor is
run Into tanks, and the copper Is pre
cipitated by scrap Iron. Tho initio
what romarkablu statement la made
that by this uioani the amount
of copper left in ilia wusto liquor
doei not exceed 1.4 gram per gallon.

Of corn wo produced 1.002.0C7.033

no leos than $501,072,052, or about

Of wheat we produced 15:10,149,108
bushels, 'which poured Into the laps of
me farmers the sum of SJ28,R47.121
Of oats we produced 008,70700
bushels, yielding $147,074,710.
Thus on three grain crops alone our
tillers of the soli earned $1,077,504,702.
This does not Include barley, hay,
beef, mutton, wool, pork, eggs, chick

milk, or any other of a hundred farm
products that- together greatly exceed
these three recorded crops In value, It
does not Include the 7,000,000 bales of
cotton, or the rice, or the tobacco, or
