Across the seas a the England of the Southern our australian Brethren sweltering heat Are gathering a capital wheat crop from which loaves will probably be on British breakfast tables before our own summer 13 with a. The australian surplus is expected to exceed qrs., and May be Large enough to allows Clear con signed to British ports. The continent How Ever shows a decided and to far As 1 Rance a concerned an increasing regard for Australia s Golden Grain a phrase by the Bye of entirely practical usage seeing that Gold is the True color of Tho antipodean Corn different alike from the Ruddy wheat of Russia nod our own Eastern counties and from the White the acc of America s North Pacific states. The new wheat of Australia is already being Mads the subject of Market speculation and an opening quotation of 3sc May be quoted. The chilian new crop a likewise being dealt in at about Leas Money than is for the produce of our own colonies. Returns Are so far Complete by now that we Are Able to compare English wheat eatts for the first four months after Harvest with those of the same period in the two preceding years we find that statutory markets have sold about against Oft. Last season and Era. In 1888. Allowing for the increased number o5 we shall find that total sales for Bra United kingdom May be presumed to have been 1890, hrs. 1889, 000 1888, hrs. These sales Are in Accord with Che agricultural estimates published on december 18th. Ibis probable that of wymers will hold rather More 1890 wheat on january 1st, 1891, than they held of 1sb9 wheat on january 1st, 1890. Whether total holdings differ much May be doubted for the reserves of 1889 wheat carried Over on septem Ber 1st, 1890, were certainly very Light the utter exhaustion of Supply in july and August wheat and flour now on the United kingdom amounts to qrs., against hrs.
