NEW YORK, June 10.—It still is too early to predict accurately what the financial position of the farmers of America will be during the last half of this year. Weather conditions here and crop and financial conditions abroad may change the situation de- cidedly. At present, however, the out: look for the American farmer is ex-| tremely good. | The estimate of the Department of | Agriculture crop report indicates it i | certain that the world wheat carry-| over will be smaller than usual and the domestic carry-over may be under. 55,000,000 bushels, and the European | crop may easily amount to 200,000,000 busheis more than that of last year. The Canadian crop has got @ good start and the Argentine and Aus- tralian yields still are problematical. The world markets really set the price for American wheat, for if do- mestic growers have to sell their sur- plus abroad the price they can get for it there dominates the price it will bring here. Good Wheat Prices Seen. ! With little or no surplus above! home requirements, however, the price of wheat bids fair to be at a level which will yleld the farmer adequate returns. ‘It is true wheat TOSe to the $2 mark in 1924, but few of the growers obtained anything like that price for their crops. It is a fair assumption that 192¢ wheat did not yield the farmer more than $1,090,000,000. The 660,885,000 bushels estimated for this year at present gne- would yield ~something like 1,090,460,250. Any damage to the crop from . this time on or a failure in other big pro- ducing countries would tend to send the price to higher levels. The re- port of the Department of Agriculture therefore would not seem to indicate any falling off in the total buying power of the wheat growers this year. Smaller Fruit Yield Likely. The season is not far enough ad- vanced to Indicate the probable corn yield. Acreage probably has been increased, but damage by unfavorable weather has occasioned much replant- ing. Country offerings of corn have recently increased, but the use of sub- stitutes for stock feeding has been widespread owing to high prices. There is, however, little to indicate lower prices in the immediate future. The prospects for large fruit pro- duction_are less favorable than last year. But fruits are being marketed to better advantage this season. Yields from various sections are not coming on the market at the same time and | distribution is better. The canning of | fruit has been given impetus by the| low prices obtaining for sugar, and experts anticipate the growers will receive as much, or more, for their fruit as they aid last year, Decrease in Farm Debts. Cotton got off to a good start, with estimates of productfon high, but the weather will have the last word to say in respect to this crop, as is the case with most others. The oat yleld is expected to be high both in Canada and the United States and the an- ticipated heavy production of rye in Europe is a bearish factor in this n. Ax to the position of the farmer himself, it is far more favorable than at this time last year. At that time many agriculturists were heavily in debt. They were forced to uss a large part of the money received from the 1924 crops in clearing their loans. Now they are in excellent shape 1.naa. clally and have shown indications of buying freely when the harvests are over this autumn.
