one of the worst beatings OF his ca

bushels. and domestic stocks are not
high. However. domestic production
has but little influence on prices be-
cause of the small part of the crop
produced in this country and the re-
turns to growers depend very largely
on the world situation.
World production in 1926 in the
countries reporting to date amounts
to SO7 100000 bushels, which is 20 per
cent below production in 1925. This
reduction is largely due to changes in
yields as the estimated acreage for
1926 was only slightly less than in
1925. The average yield of rye per
acre in Europe exclusive Of Russia,
was only about 10 bushels as compar-
ed with 1916 in 1925 and the pre-war
average of 21.7 bushels. Exports from
Russia have been small. With this
reduction in supplies the carry-ovcr

The RYE OUTLOOK

The price outlook for the 1927 crop
of rye. judging from prospective sup
ply and requirements indicates lite
change, from the present situation,
according to Paul {. Newman, of the
Y. S. division Of crop and livestock
estimates. Reports indicate reduc-
ton in the area seeded throughout
the world, but with average or better
than average yields. the production in
1927 may make the total world sup"
ply equal to or greater than in the
past year.
The acreage seeded for harvest as
grain in 1927 (3,579,00O acres) in the
United States is only slightly larger
than for last year and very much be-
low the acreage harvested in any 9TH
,er year since 1916. With average
yields production Of around 47,O00.-
600 bushels can be expected. The
