RAINVTLLE United Press Stiff Correspondent CHICAGO, May 4.—Wheat closed higher on the Board of Trade today after an unsettled session that saw prices break early on selling induced by scattered rains in the northwest, only to rally to the best prices on the present movement.

By United Press LAFAYETTE, Ind., May 4. Finely ground lime is being recognized by Indiana farmers as a soil sweetener when legumes are to be planted, it is revealed by Purdue university agriculturists. Seventy-seven Tippecanoe county farmers began use of the lime this spring, each one conducting an experiment to see if it is more satisfactory than the ordinary ground product. Seven demonstration fields in Blackford county have been seeded to legumes and sweetened with limestone flour. These will be cropped, for several years to learn the effect of this form of lime on the stand of legumes, hardiness, yield and effect on corn which will be planted in three years.

SHARP INCREASE IS RECORDED BY AUTOFACTORIES Production Now at Highest Levels Since Last June. BY RICHARD L. GRIDLEY United Pres* Financial Writer NEW YORK, May 4.—Automobile production in the United States is currently running at the highest levels since last June on the basis of April output statistics of the principal companies. Latest estimates place April production for the industry at 355.000 cars and trucks, the smallest April since 1922, and 23.7 per cent under the corresponding period of last year, but an increase of 19.5 per cent over the March statistics. Production has shown successive improvement since the closing months of last year, and while current business largely represents sales of the lower-priced cars, the steady gains in output are interpreted as important long term influences in general business activity. Despite the general pickup in sales and production, some companies are not sharing in the general improvement. Chevrolet has made further inroads into Ford’s leadership with April sales of 105,096 units, compared with 79,603 in March and within only a few thousand of the output in May, 1930, the largest production month of last year. Together with Ford, these companies currently account for about 70 per cent of the present output. Many Gains Made Some of the smaller companies have made extensive gains, however. Auburn and Cord April shipments at 6,003 units set a newmonthly high record for the company and compared with output of 2,056 in the like months of last year. Shipments of the Company for the first four months of this year, likewise, set anew high record at 18,338, against 6,117 in the corresponding period of last year. Other makers of high-priced cars have met with unusual success. Cadillac and La Salle April shipments were 2,503 cars, against 2,332 in March and 2,531 in April 1930. In the medium-priced field, Buick continues a leader. April sales of these models were 13,939, against 10,550 in March and 9,601 in April, 1930. Hudson and Essex reported April sales at 40 per cent over March to a total of 10,000 cars, the largest month since last June. Near Future Bright In addition to the generally satisfactory trend of motor car sales since the start of the new year, automobile executives are pleased over the near future prospects. The industry feels that the usual spring buying season will be better sustained this year because many manufacturers have agreed not to -replace existing lines until the latter part of the year. Estimates of probable 1931 output of motor vehicles continue to vary greatly, but it is believed that earlier forecasts of as high as 4,500,000 units will net be fulfilled. Most authorities now place the possible production at approximately three million cars, a slight decrease from 1930. Later months of this year are expected to take up much of the loss from a year ago suffered in the first four months of this year.
