Basing predictions on a canvass made
on September 1 by its thousands of
agents W the United States.

issued forecasts showing the prospects
of virtually all the principal farm
crops except potatoes and rice im-
proved during August.
The wheat crop is placed at 981,-

-Conditions for the spring whesl Cop
have been ideal lately and threshing
discloses yields above the average and
of excellent quality.
As a result of the favorable condi-

ulibs entire wheat production probably
will reach one billion bushels.
Corn production prospects Increased

now being 2,986,000,000 bushels. Al-
though that exceeds last years crop
