Thousand Cars Westward Each Day
As Wheat Crop of This Year Ripens
CHICAGO (AH) I'Yom 750 to
3. mill "empties" a day are going
through the Chicago and St. Louis
gateways to the great wheat em
pire on the prairies.
The hat vest of the 5ft5.oiui.noo
bushel winter wheat crop will start

June 10 and 1 i ami by the
time it reaches Kansas and Okla
homa in early July, Hie American
Hallway association expects to have
approximately 4a, ami box cars
rushing the grain to yorts, mills
and elevators.
l-'or more than a month cars
ownwl by western roads have been
I rick ling back from the east to
await one mile-long switch tracks
the deluge from 40.u00.iHMi acres, a
winter wheat acreage excel led
only five times In history.
If the weather ripens the wheat
quickly, thn real movement will
stmt agoul July 1 and' from then
until July 1 5 approximately l.oon
wheat- cars a day. will rea'eh' t ho.
KunWis City terminals, wiille' "loa

j bl M. Holts, manager of t he
; closed car section o ft he American
j ltailway association's ear service1
division, says officials of all the
! western reads are urging that eacri
car bo loaded as luavily as possible
Jto insure ample shipping facilities.
In many cases wheat is shoveled
into the cars from wagons that
, come direct from the harvest field.
Hs. tally from I, Mia lo l.soo bushels
are put into a single car.
j The chief worry for Metis and
t M J. C.oriiiley, chairman of the car
j service division, is whether it will
be possible to got the cars unloaded
(rapidly at the docks and elevators
;so they may be started back for a
i second load.
Metis says it all depends on tho
market demand. There is a greater
I number of western owner cars on
their, home llius than eer before
and from JM.oon to 25,0011 empties
iui'(i lying on sum micas, -mil unless
! the export demand Is -good he fears
jn tie-up of transportation faeilllbs.
j Kami granaries are fairly welt
loaded with old wheat and the car
ryover In storage elevators and
mills is unusually heavy. Combines,
cutting and threshing In one opcin
tion. have the effect of deluging
the shippers with -4 hours after
they enter the field. Kansas, alone,
has I'O.oau combines, and there are
at least Ca.iuiO in all of the Cnited
Stah'S.
With inadequate stoiage facilities
n grave probability. Holts believes
the winter wheat farmer's salvation
lies in the nruket reaching the bot
tom before the new crop starts lo
move. Foreign purchasers, he
points out, will not buy on a fall
ing market. If, however, they be.
lieve prices have i cached the bot
tom they will bay in anticipation
of a rebound. Kxporl demand dU
rectly influences the market at
