Mr. Rice declared the normal' visible supply of wheat in Wash~ ington, Oregon and northern Idaho ircluding an average 10,000,000 bushel carryover, was 90,000,000 bushels, but that this year's vis- ible supply was only about 78,000,- | 000 - bushels from which must be subtracted the “extra” 15,000,000 | bushels sold to China by the Grain Stabilization Corporation for flood rclief and an “extra” 5,000,000 de- mand from California. | “These figures show that we have ' a practical supply of 58000000 bushels this year to meet a normal | demand of 80,000,000 bushels,” said ; Mr. Rice. “I don’t say this will put prices p, but it certainly points to the possibility of stronger wheat ; prices before spring.” In his estimate of a 78,000,000- | bushel supply this year, Mr. Rice figured a carryover of 18,000,000 ! bushels and a new crop of 60,- 000,000 bushels. “Many millers and grain men are estimating the new crop this year to be as low as 50 or 53 mil- lion bushels,” he said. “Oregon was bard bit; so was northern Idaho, er lands in the Walla Walla val- ley and the Palouse country were the only two good crop spots in ‘Washington.” Exclusive of the China sale and ‘the extra 5,000,000 bushel demand from California, Mr. Rice said there ‘was ‘only about 25,000,000 bushels of wheat in the Pacific Northwest ‘this year for export. “The normal export demand is 45 to 50 million bushels,” he said. “We-have shipped nearly 10,000,000 bushels so far, and so there ncw is onjy about 15,000,000 bushels loft to meet a normal demand of 35,- 000,000 to 40,000,000 bushels.” ——————— Major R.
