Optimism Felt In
Wheat Crop Outlook
For Next Year
Stocks Are Low in Exporting Countries
and Quality Poor in Some :
Foreign Lands.

SPOKANE.--fn a year end forecast
prepared by Henry w. Collins, vice
president in charge Of the Pacific coast
division of the Farmers National Grain
Corporation, bright prospects are out
lined for the wheat crop and prices
next year.
The report as made public by the
Spokane office Of the Farmers Ma
tional Grain corporation is as follows:
Although world wheat prices have
advanced from recent record low prices
the more recent foreign exchange
fluctuations and the disturbed financial
conditions in this country and abroad
have again reduced prices, although
not to the low point previously reached
1t would seem, however, that the fact
that grain prices have not declined
more in the face of such conditions
augurs we'll for commodity values.
Sentiment with respect to condi-
tons prevailing in connection with
wheat has changed considerably.
Whereas a few months ago many were
pointing to large stocks of wheat IN
all countries, especially in Russia,
there is now the belief that stocks are
less in the exporting countries, with
the exception of the United States and
Canada and that the quality Of wheat
in Russia and Argentina is SO much
below standard that it is reasonable
to expect continued demand from inn
porting countries for the high grade
wheat held in North America.
MANY authorities are also calling
attention to the prospect for smaller
crop next year in the United States
and Canada. In the American winter
wheat states, where a bumper crop
was harvested last year. conditions are
less satisfactory than they have been
in many years, and all indications point
to greatly reduced crop. Due partly
to unfavorable weather conditions,
acreage of fall sown wheat has been
greatly reduced in the United States.
The December government report on
winter wheat acreage is the fourth low
est since 1870, and moisture conditions
in the spring wheat area are also poor.

able that this year the price Of wheat
has been several cents above Chicago,
whereas the normal spread is several
cents below Chicago. This improve
ment in local price is due to the re
duction In the wheat surplus which
normally exists on this coast. The
carry-over on July / was much less
than had been anticipated, and this
supplemented by short crop in Ore
gon, Washington and Idaho had an
immediate effect on the price. The
recent sale Of 100000 bushels Of
wheat for flood relief in China and
the crop failure in California necessi-
tating large shipments to that state
have reduced stocks of wheat in the
Pacific northwest to the lowest guam
tity known in many years.
"As result of the improved price
OF wheat in the local market and with
favorable weather prevailing, prospects
might be termed bright tor the 1857
crop In the Inland Empire Generous
rains in the wheat belt ard exception
ally heavy rainfall in the mountains
present ideal conditions. II is gener-
ally believed that heavy SHOWS in the
watersheds are conclusive to rain In
this territory in the spring and to
prevention of hot winds such as those
which ruined the bright crop pros
pect which existed before last harvest
"One point would like to empha-
size is the necessity for conservative
acreage and limited production on the
part Of growers to maintain the pres
ent favorable supply situation and the
consequent price advantage
