WHEAT CROPS SHORT
THE WORLD SURPLUS SMALLEST FOR 13 YEARS AMERICAN ESTIMATES [By Telegraph—Press Association —Copyright] Sept. 27, 9.5 p.m. WASHINGTON, Sept. 26. The Department of Agri* ture estimates that the world wheat surplus this year will- be the smallest for 13 years, being about; 330,000,000 bushels less than in 1934-35, due to short crops in Argentina, Australia and the United States. Officials are agreed that a considerable amount of high grade wheat to mix with United States wheat, will be imported from Canada. With almost two-thirds of the world carryover, Canada's holdings will dominate the world markets. The world wheat production is estimated at 3,430,000,000 bushels, and the world carry-over, outside Russia, amounts to 800,000,000 bushels, so that the total available will be about 4,230,000,000 bushels. Short crops this year will reduce the carry-over by the end of the season to between 400,000,000 and 500,000,000 bushels—not much more than the normal world carryover prior to 1.)25.
