Bs the Associated Press. The Agriculture Department pre- dicts a near-record wheat acreage this year, along with & crop estimate 25 per cent higher than in 1936. The Crop Reporting Board, in a survey of May conditions, estimated yesterday wheat acreage would be 47,- 410,000, compared with 37,608,000 last year. The yield was estimated at 654,- 295,000 bushels, compared with 519,- 013,000 bushels last year. Predicting a light yield for rye, the would be close to 42,913,000 bushels. The board said Spring farming started under mixed conditions. Live stock and feed reserves have been de- pleted severely by the drought, and pastures, ranges, hay meadows, new grass seedings and Winter grains are subnormal. On the other hand, the board sald, the demand for farm products is in- creasing and shortages due to the drought are encouraging some pro- ducers. R AMERICAN U.
