Manitoba’s Immense Wheat Crop.

Winnipeg, Man., Oct. 10.—Premier Greenway estimates that Manitoba raised this year 20,000,000 bushels of high grade wheat, 10,000,000 of lower grade but merchantable wheat, and 5,000,000 of feed wheat. There are 20,000,000 bushels of oats above home requirements of 8,000,000, of which a large portion will not be thrashed because of low price and high freights. There are also 6,000,000 bushels of barley. There are less than 25,000 farmers in the entire province.
