The end yesterday of the 1858
wheat crop year made India by far the
biggest United States customer for that
bread grain for the period. Shipments
Of wheat and flour to India amounted
to about 20 million bushels, more than
one-fourth Of all this Nations wheat
exports.
With the winter wheat harvest now
nearing its end in the major producing
state OF Kansas. almost completed in
point in some States east of the Mis-
Sissippi River, the trade is counting
on a private crop report later this
week to provide rather fairly conclusive
figures on yields
The report by c. NJ Calvin, statis-
tician for Francis l. Dupont e. Co. may
be issued tomorrow. II is expected to
give the trade its first overall look at
average actual production.
