Victorian Harvest a Failure.
(Per Press Association. ) Melbourne, This Day. The harvest outlook continues gloomy. There is no hope now of any improvement. The early sample of wheat shown is pinched and small. The quantity of the yield is still uncertain, but it is believed it will not be above four bushels per acre. In many cases the early sown crops have failed, but those sown later are much more promising. At a meeting of the Millers' Association, it was decided to urge that millers be allowed to import wheat, and allow a draw back on all flour, etc.. exported up to the yalue of the duty paid on imported wheat.
