Wheat Farmers Will Prosper.

Forecast by the department of agri-
culture Tuesday that the nations win
ter wheat crops would total S37 ,00O, 900
bushels, the largest crop ever grown.
aroused immediate speculation as to
the cost to the government of such an
enormous yield. Under the bill passed
by congress in the closing days of
the last session the government is OBJ
ligated to pay the difference between
the guaranteed price of 1925 a bushel
and the world market price for every
bushel, not only of winter, but of
spring wheat produced.
The total value of the winter wheat
crop on the basis of an S37 900 900
bushel crop forecast would be $751;
100000. The spring wheat crop, can
not be estimated at this time, but Of
ficials predicted it would range be-
tween 225,000,000 and 100000 bush
els, which would increase the total
value of the nations wheat to about
81 800, 100000
The part of this $780, 900, 900 that
the government must pay to maintain
the guaranteed price was problema-
tical officials declared. 1t was said
that the factors influencing the world
market price, such as production in
Argentina, Australia and other coun-
tries, and the European demand. were
too numerous to make any prediction
at this time.
Officials expressed the belief that
there would be a good foreign demand
for American wheat which would take
care of the nations surplus and while
the loss to the government through
its price guarantee may mount far
into the millions of dollars, so far as
the actual wealth of the country was
concerned it simply will be taking
money from one pocket and putting
1t into another.
Tuesdays forecast also indicated
that America will have a greater sur
plus than ever before. The United
States requires for its own yearly con-
sumption about SO bushels of wheat
for each person within it, With ap-
proximately 110,000,O00 people in the
United States, and adding approx
mately 75,000,00O of wheat which is
necessary for feeding purposes, the
demands of this country this year are
estimated at more than 100000, 900
bushels
With spring wheat production es-
timated at from 225,OOO,O00 to 800, 900
600 bushels is would appear that the
surplus available for export would be
in the neighborhood of 100000, 900
bushels.
A striking feature of the present
situation is uniformly good condi-
ton in practically all important wheat
producing states. ranging from 104 in
Ohio down to 90 in North Carolina.
among the states having 1000, 600
acres or more. Kansas, with approx
imately 100000 out of the United
States total of 49,OO0,0OO acres, shows
a condition of 101. The present moist
ure conditions throughout the entire
country are very favorable.
The winter wheat promise on April
! of s37 100000 is nearly double the
yearly average production in the Unit
ed States for the five years before the
war GAP. 100000 in 1909-1913) and is
nearly so per cent larger than the pro-
duction during the war years 1914-191s,
when the average was 562 ,000, 600.
