DEMAND FOR WHEAT.
MEETING THE WORLD NEEDS.
UNITED STATES AND AUSTRALIA. (United Press Association—Copyright.) CHICAGO, January 17. A message from Chicago reports that Mr B. W. Snow, the internationallyknown wheat reporter, states that Australia and the United States are/ the only two countries in the world able to meet in any degree the rising world demand for wheat. Only Australia can provide wheat in sufficient quantities to meet the needs of Europe, and even this wheat requires a mixture of American wheats to give it the quality needed by millers abroad. The export situation has been improving rapidly in recent months, and before the time when the European domestic crops become available about the beginning of July, more and more American wheat will be needed. The present stock of American wheat is estimated at about 105,000,000 bushels, but much of it is of low grade.
