Says Wheat Crop Is Short.

Wichita, Kas., June 4. —A. Wood Davis, the noted crop statistician, who is conceded to know more about the world’s food supply than any other man in America, declares that the current reports that the world is full of wheat and that Europe will produce this year 100,000,000 bushels more wheat than in 1895 is absurd. He declined to express an opinion as to prices of wheat in the future.
