SLIGHT DAMAGE
FROM RUST SEEN
Very Moderate Loss ir
Wheat Areas Disclosed
by Federal Report.
Ry the Associated Press.


The Department of Agriculture re-
ported today that rust had done very
little damage to the wheat crop this
year due to dry weather.
Most of the Winter wheat in Texas,
Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri was
harvested with only slight damage
from stem rust, the report said.
In Northeastern Kansas and North
western Missouri, there Is consider
able rust in some late fields Of soft
red Winter wheat, but the aggregate
loss for the two States will be slight.
In Southern Nebraska wheat Is ma
ture or rapidly ripening and there is
little likelihood that rust will be an
important factor, the report added.
1t was reported that a trace of stem
rust could be found on Spring wheat
in those parts of South Dakota and
Minnesota not seriously affected by
drought. However, the weather has
been dry during the last week and
development of the fungus retarded
There is no indication, the department
said, that serious losses from stem
rust will occur in the Spring wheat
area this year.

WHOLESALE INDEX
CONTINUES TOR|SE
Fertilizer Association Finds
Average at TIA, Best
Since February.

Largely due to a sharp rise in farm
product prices. the weekly wholesale
commodity price index compiled by
the National Fertilizer Association reg
istered another advance In the week
ended June q, moving to the high
est level reached since last Febru-
ary. The index number in the latest
week, based on the 1868 average as
100, was TIA, which compares with
1853 in the preceding week, 75.s q
month ago and 758 year ago.
Although most Of the price changes
which took place during the week were
upward, increases occurred in only
four of the component groups, while
one declined and six remained un-
changed. The sharpest advance was
registered by the farm products index,
which rose to 1874 from It's; it was
still well below the high point Of the
year, however, which was reached last
February. Continued advances in the
prices of all grains, resulting from the
drought conditions of the Northwest,
combined with rising prices for cat
tie, hogs and cotton, were responsible
for the increase in the group index;
of the 81 series representing prices of
farm products included in the index,
IL advanced and only 4 declined.
Food prices were mainly higher dur
ing the week, but declines In such
important items as eggs. potatoes and
beef resulted in moderate decline in
the group index. A rise in the textile
price index reflected higher quotations
for cotton, cotton fabrics and silk;
the only item in this group to decline
was sisal. Higher prices for hides,
crude rubber and cattle feed resulted
in the index representing prices Of
miscellaneous commodities continuing
upward. The changes in the other
groups were of minor significance.
