Wheat on of th world most necessary commodities has recently become th barome ter for the natlon'a maris, uur Ing the period of excited apecu- ation between March 1 ana m la dle July, wheat skyrocketed and led other markets upward, men the wheat market bogged down and crashed. Prlrea aank and sank. A peg waa put on tne market that la an arbitrary flgur was set below which price could not drop. Once that waa removed price atarted down again. Fir centa pel bushel limitations wer put In on fluctuatlona. Market Drop Limit Today, after a abarp rise yes terday, th market dropped the live cent limit. An Indication of th fluctua tion In thla necessary commodi ty la ahown In September de livery. Early this year it waa quoted at 45 cents per nusnei. On July 18, Juit nerore me crash, It was quoted, al 1.!0 per bushel. Today It waa quot ed' at 84 centa per bushel, th lowest It could fall under the Chicago board of trad rul ings. V And behind this lies a story ot big business which got out of bounds. Th four great wheat produc ing nationa ar th United Slate, Canada, Australia and Argentina. In th IS years be tween 118 and 1118, these four nationa Increased wheat acreage by 88,226.000 acres. bringing about a 78 per cent production lncreas. Export to other countries grew tremend ously. But It must be recalled that that waa during the war period and the post war period. Eu ropean nations did not produc th amount of wheat they had produced previously. Tbey had to go to other nationa the west to get their auppliea for bread. Farms Geared High Between 1914 and 19 28 net American exports averaged 827, 000,000 bushels per year. Farma were geared to produce this amailng amount of th world'a total wheat aupply. Broad flat lands extending from the Can adian prairie provlncea down to the border became wheat farms. Then anddenly European na tions atarted producing wheat. TJie Danttbian countries In creased their output tremend ously. Russia, under the new Bolshevist government, atarted on broad ecale farming experi ments. In 1928 United States wheat exports totaled 142,000, 000 bushels. In 1929, 140,000, 000 bushels, In 1930, 112,000. 000 bushels, In 1931, 112,000, 000 bushels and In 1932 had dropped to only 32.000,000 bushels. This year exporta are expected to total about 35.000. 000 bushels. But natur aided th situa tion thla fear by bringing dust storms which pulled wheat stalka from the ground and sent them hurtling through the air and drought. Agulnst a har vested crop of 726,000,000 bush els In 1938 and an average of 861.000,000 bushels for th flvs years between 1926-30. the United States is expected to produce only 449,671,000 bush els of all kinda of wheat. According to official estimates, support of the British Air Force by taxpayers during 1938 will cost more than 887.000.000.
