Bumper Wheal Crop Predicted In U. S. Nation Is Faced By Short Corn Crop Washington. June 11—(UP>— Agriculture department experts, confident of the largest wheal crop In the nation's history, turned their attention today to the uncertain corn crop. They gaid a short corn crop would have serious effects on the feed situation and possibly on next year's meat supply. A short crop Is threatened, they said, because of adverse weather which has delayed some 25 percent of the plantings. The department said Hint If the corn crop Is poor, some of the biimp<-r wheat output may have to )h- diverted to . stock feed. On the basis of June 1 conditions. the spring an-l winter wheat crops will prcsliM-e a record yield of L40».8»3.0(JO bush els, even more than predicted lust month. This would top last year’s crop by more than 25#,000,000 bushels. Among other grains, only oats will drop below last year, according to conditions prevailing June 1, the agriculture department said. Rye production was estimated at 25.200,000 bushels, compared with 18,025,000 last year: oats 1.247.333.000 bushels, compared with 1,509,867.000 last year; barley 268,319.000 bushels, com pared with 263,350.000 in 1946. For other crops, the department said prospects shape up as follows: Sugar beet acreage will be short in some areas espe. lally in Michigan where wet weather has sharply reduced plantings. Hay production is exported sllrfitly to exceed last year's crop.
