BIG GRAIN Shortage

Chicago. Ill.,. October Z, 1918
Serious shortage exists in the
worlds's crop of grain for 1918. The
supply is nearly 10 per cent less
than last year. The total deficiency
aggregates 1880 millions bushels
of the FIVE grain staples. THIS
shortage is lot made up by pota-
toes, the worlds supply Of which
is no greater than last year, and
800 million bushels less than the
worlds normal potato crop Of
1910. These amazing conclusions
are indicated by the preliminary
report upon world crops and the
future Of prices, prepared By
Orange Judd Farmer, the Chicago
authority, as Of October lst. This
authority emphasizes that the four
bread stuifs-wheat, oats, rye and
barley-wil probably be 500 mill
ion bushels LESS this year than in
1912, 20 million bushels LESS than
two years ago out 4 per cent more
than in the 1910 crop.
