Washington, Oct. 1.-THE foreign crop
report of the department of agriculture,
which has just been issued, says the
shortage Of the wheat crop in Russia re-
ported in the first cumulative estimate
of the central statistical committee was
a surprise, and that if the Russian wheat
production falls below last years low lev
Ell, only France and possibly Italy have
surpassed materially the harvest of 1906
AS both France and Italy are importing
countries their larger crops can increase
only indirectly the wheat surplus avail
able for the international market. The re-
port adds:
Now that the harvesting in the north
ern hemisphere is practically completed
interest is being diverted southwark to
Argentina, India and Australia. The Ques-
ton how far those countries can be ex-
pected six months hence to supply the
deficiencies of northern harvests will soon
become a potent influence on the course
of wheat prices. With a moderate in
crease reported in the wheat acreage and
favorable growth so far. Argentina may
possibly produce a larger surplus than
last year. The wheat crop of India, on a
reduced area, is described as growing
well in spite of general lack of rainfall
although In Bengal, on the contrary,
floods have caused damage Australia s
conditions are much less promising In
