WHEAT CROP A WONDER
United States Can Export Large
Amount tOStarying EurODe.

WASHINGTON, Oct 1.-THE world
wheat crop this year probably will be
less than in 1913 or 1912, although the
united States has had record-break-
ing wheat harvest. The statistics an
hounced today by the department of
agriculture, indicate the crops of all
nations aggregate approximately g.
al l,olS,O00 bushels, against 4,125,31O,-
900 bushels in 1913 and 1871 ,S75. 900
bushels in 1912.
In Europe agricultural conditions
IN most countries this season have
been favorable for only moderate
yields" the department announced
1t is practically certain that the pres
ent shortage of this seasons European
yield will be magnified by the com
'plete returns. Harvests were pret-
ty well over before, or soon after hos
tilities began, and the grain is believed
to have been saved in generally good
condltlon, except in territory actually
occupied by the contending armies.
Great Britain, according to agri-
cultural Officials, reports a crop sew
efal million bushels larger than any
recent one. In France the Official es-
innate of production has not appear
ed but it is believed the quantity prob
ably will exceed that of last year. It.
ally indicates short yield and Spain
an increase over last year. From Ger
many and Austria no intimation of the
grain harvest is indicated Reports
from Roumania and the Balkan states
suggest short yields, and official re-
ports place the harvest in seventy
three governments of European and
Asiatic Russia at S3,000,O00 bushels
below the extraordinary large crop
there last year.
Italy, Great Britain, Spain, Hungary
and Russia, normally producing more
than two-thirds of the European wheat
show this year 237,0OO000 bushels
less than last year, but 34,000,00O
bushels more than in 1912. Great
Britains total is 60,000,000 more than
either year, while Russia will have
lS3,0O0,O00 bushels less than a year
ago.
The decrease in production in other
European countries probably will
make their aggregate approximate
700, 100000 bushels.
The five principal non-E European
wheat producing countries-the Unit
ed States, Canada, Argentina, British
India and Australia-which grow all
the wheat produced outside of Europe
an annual total of two to
three hundred million bushels, Off
cially report 1886, 100000, or 6O,O00,-
900 bushels less than last year, but
more than in 1912 The de-
crease was due wholly to shortages in
Canada, Argentina and British India,
their aggregate output being 100000
200 bushels less than last year. The |
combined output of the United States
and Australia, exceeded last year by |
LAO, 100000 bushels.
OF the S92,00O,000 bushel record
crop harvested in the United States,
'25,000,000 bushels, it is estimated,
will be required for food in this coun-
ry and 100000 bushels for seeding.
This will peave 290,0OO,000 bushels
lvailable for expectation The largest
luantity ever exported from the Unit
ID States heretofore in one year was
100000 bushels in 1901 Last year
Al, 100000 bushels were exported.
