Chicago, March 25.-Tbere is every present; indication that the wheat crop for 1&15 will be a record-breaker in the history of the country, but.itis too early yet for any definite state ment, according to. B. W. Snow, chief statistician of Bartlett, Fraxier & Carrington. ' "With conditions similar to last year, the 1910 crop will break all records. said Snow today. "Last year 36.000.000 acres of wheat yielded a total winter and spring crop of 891.000,000 bushels. Of this amount; 683,000.000 bushels constituted the winter wheat crop. This yar the acreage is between 41. 000,000! and 42,000,000. So far, the weathet has been encouraging; and everything points to a bumper yield. This is particularly true in Oklahoma Kansas1 and Nebraska, generally known as the I'dry states. "There is a possibility that the yield this year might -reach 900,000,000 bushels, but it is mere guesswork to try to estimate the number of bushels now. But as no one can tell what the year will be until after the crop is cut, it would not be surprising even yet if the crop dropped as low as 500,000.000 bushels. But present indications are fine." ! . now said that he could not make any prediction as to the possible prices of wheat and flour, asserting that the" prices will depend upon the law of sup- ply and demand and the lessons learned from the war. has pieces of land scattered In many parts of the city.
