Secretary f. j. Smiley OF the Kansas
Grain Dealers association in an inter-
View says that Kansas has raised 10000
90 bushels OF wheat and that 40 per cent
% this crop is stih In the stock on farms
IHe also declares that Kansas as well as
southern Nebraska and northern Okla
homa has shipped not to exceed 20 per
cent Of the wheat crop.
Corn losses In Kansas were heavy be-
cause OF the lack OF moisture in some
sections and the high temperatures at
times over nearly the entire state
Wheat values will continue 10 pivot on
the war situation. A. viewed from an
Impartial standpoint. the countries now
AT war will be obliged to import enor-
nous quantities Of grain and nearly all
Of this wheat must come from the
United States. Russia will not permit Of
any expectations OF wheot, save to GER
tain sections OF the United Kingdom and
then only certain amounts. Australia
has cut off the expectation OF foodstuffs
and Argentine will have a smaller guam
atty OF grain than usual for shipment to
importing countries. The clearance Of
breadstnffs from America will be larger
for the next two weeks as the figures
compiled are said TO show that the ship
ments to the United Kingdom ~ well as
TO France have been enormous
The flour situation at Chicago as well
as in the west Is IN the strongest position
In years. Millers have little spot flour
70 sell abroad, as the domestic trade Is
absorbing everything obtainabie.
Corn remains strong. with some OF the
Old time bulls sim on the buying side on
AL the declines The east is taking more
Of out corn than for some time because
OF the small offerings OF that grain Of
good quality from Argentine. II Is ex-
pected that the Danubian shipment Will
DO liberal in the near future, but that We
will see but small shipments from the
southern hemisphere. Chicago concern
received a cable from Liverpool Saturday
nnIrlnr for a hid m Arnauflpn or
september shipment.
