mnrovod somewhat since December
1. While the. past week has been
unusually cold, most of the wheat
fields have a gnod snow covering
which fell on unfrozen ground. In
much of the wheat belt a good rain
preceded it he snow, so that sou mois
ture conditions have materially im
proved. On tho strength of this im
provement some growers who had
engaged seed for spring .rcscHiwr,
have cancelled their orders. It is
pretty generally expected that more
,han the usual amount of reseeding
will be necessary, due to unfavorable
fall seeding and erowinj; conditions,
ut not much can be determined,
definitely until early ' ppring.
Conditions of .thcj--U. S. .crop has
been somewhat impaired of late due
to severe cold and lack of auow cov
ering. .v -...i' - -, , :,.
. Kye. ..
The Oregon "rye for ;giiuiii unease
steled this fall is estimated at lUr
1M)0 acres compared with 117,00 acres
seeded last fall. Condition of the
jrop is placed at 00 per cent. The
December condition last year was
.04 per cent, the 1020 condition was
Hi per cent and tne 10 year average
)G per cent.
The U. S rye acreage seeded this
fall is placed at 5,508,000 acres,
compared with 6,210,000 acres in
1921. The December 1, 1022, con
Jition was 84.; per cent; 1020, 00.5
)er cent, and the 10 year average
10.8 nor cent.
Foreign Crop Notes.
Latest forecasts indicate "a wheat
harvest in Argentina and Australia
for 1022-2:1 about 7,000,000 bushels'
greater than for the year preceding,
in South Africa climatic conditions
ire generally t favorable, althoun...
-nin has been much needed in some
sections.
Fall seeding in Europe generally
has been delayed, but the condition
)f the crop is good. Increased acre
ages of winter grains are reported
or this year in France, Italy and
Bulgaria. In Germany the acreage
s about the same as last year with
x somewhat lower condition.-
The Russian wheat production for'
1022 lias been houghly estimated at
i -ibout 40 percent increase over 1021.
i but it is not considered probable
that there will be any of the crop
: for export. Condition of the new
j wheat crop is reported to be only
i fair, but it is estimated that thcro
has been a marked increase over
"he acreage of recent years.
