This Year's Wheat Crop ' Out ot the. misery which upload.-! over tho great middle west whore the wheat section has failed to got eny moisture and therefore will not havo much of n crop, tho Grande Hondo valley and other northwest points is wire to prufit this year for the .wheat yield is bound to be short when tho hundreds of thousands of acres in the middle west fail lo produce. This is poor consolation for no one wants to profit from the misery of others, but it is almost an assured fact that tho bit: crop which looks a certainly here will fail to havo th.' usual competition from that section of the nation. .(Sometimes it foems that th" amount of wheat raised has mighty littlu to do with tho price the grower receives,' bub we supposo in the last analysis it docs, und if io, then tho price of northwest wheat should bo giiod this year. There have boon few seasons that wore as good for a bumper crop in this part of the country as this sea son. And goodness knows, wo do need it.
