Iiasett upon the It eh test official estimates th world's wheat crop outride of P.ussian and China now appears to bo around 560,000.000 bushels below last season's harvests- This reduction, however, is partially offset by an increase of nearly 26ft.O00.O9O bushels in the carry-over of old wheat at the be ginning of the season. Marketings to dalf have been large and mar- ket stocks have reached record amounts and have tended to offset the influence c.f the smaller total supply. Kxport demand improved somewhat during the week, but shipments from the principal ex porting countries are nearly 100, tiiCi,(i bushels smaller for the sea-' son to date than during rho same. period last year and reflect a larg er utilisation of native wheats in Kurope. Germany has placed a higher duty on United Slates wheat effective January Jo. When the baic price of native wheat falls below about ?1.63j per bushel a duty of about 6-c per bushel be comes effective. However.
