The total stocks of wheat in the United States, Cana da, Argentina ami Australia on the first of June totaled a little over 1.7 billion bushels. This is 40 million bushels larger than the previous record on June 1, 1943. Around 52 percent of these to tal stocks were in the United States at the beginning of June. The exports of wheat from the major exporting countries of the world continue well below a year ago. The total movement up to June 1 was 27 percent less than for the same jx’rlod last year. * JOHN DEERE N o .5 5 -H .4 SELF-I-EVEUHC H illsid e COMBINE POW ER S T E E R IN G ifow r /b u u .

Wheat producers will vote on wheat quotas for the 1955 crop on July 23, 1954. The Secretary of Agriculture this week announced the wheat acreage allotment for 1955. It was set at 55 million acres. This Is the minimum required by law. It compares with an allotment of 62 million acres for the 1951 wheat crop. Wheat farmers will lx» given an opportunity to vote on mar keting quotas for the 1955 wheat crop. The date set has been July 23 for the national referendum. Wheat quotas to lx? effective must lx? approved by two-thirds of the wheat growers voting. If farmers do not approve wheat quotas, support prices will drop to 50 per cent of parity for farmers who stay within wheat acreage allotments, if quotas are approved farmers who violate acreage allotments will pay a fine equal to 50 percent of the loan rate on excess bushels and will also lx* ineligible for price supports. Prospects for the production of wheat throughout the world are reported to lx* less favorable than a year ago.

The rumors have been more than Just recur rent that Ted Williams did not mean it when he said in a national magazine that this would be his last year in baseball. And with his broken collarbone keeping him out at the start of the season plus the virus that sidelined him during TRUITT June, it looks as if he has a ready-made excuse if he wants to appear to have changed his mind.
