Kan sas' corn crop last year was only 23,- 000,000 bushels compared with the usual production of 150.000,000 bush els. This year's estimates are for a crop of 150,000,000 bushels of wheat. It is estimated that about 45,000,00 bushels of wheat of last year's crop was consumed as animal feed. Of the average annual production of 685,- 000,000 fcushels of wheat during the past five years, about 581,000,000 were retained in this country and 106,000,- 000 exported. If the domestic wheat requirement were reckoned at about 5.3 bushels per capita, exclusive of seed and 75 ; to 80 million bushels for seed and _ were applied to a population of 98,- _ 636,000, officials say It would indl { cate a normal reqlurement of 522,- v 770,000 bushels, plus seed requirement . of 77,000,000, or a total of about 600,- s 000,000.

Even this would 9 leave about 255,000,000 for export.

STEEL DEPRESSION SLOWLY LIFTING Promise of Larger Volume of Busi ness Cheering News to Men Off at Steelton The hundreds of employes of the Pennsylvania Steel Company working on reduced time will be Interested In the prediction made by the Iron Age this morning: that Improved conditions in the steel industry are not far off. The Iron Age says: "Indications of improvement in the steel trade are notably increasing. The corner seems to have been turned at last and manufacturers are now con fident that the remainder of the year will show a much larger volume of business than the first half. "The large impetus to a better feel ing which the steel rail orders of the week have given needs only the fol lowing partial enumemtion for sub stantiation: Though discounted to a greater or less degree, the clearing of the atmosphere of uncertainty regard ing the Pennsylvania's rail distribution has helped materially, of the 100,000 tons placed, 75,000 tons are for 100- pound rails and the remainder 120-pound rails. The Steel Corporation will roll 4 4,000 tons; the Pennsylvania and Cambria Steel companies, each 22,000 tons, and the Bethlehem and wanna steel companies, each, 6,000 tons; and all companies will roll both sections. The Missouri Pacific has bought 6,700 tons of rails of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company; the Pennsylvania Steel Com pany has taken an order for 2,500 tons for a southern line and two orders for girder rails amounting to 1,250 tons. A small western road has bought 1,000 tons from the Illinois Steel Company and the Nitrate Railways, Chile, has bought 2,500 tons. The Boston and Maine has placed 4,250 tons with the Bethlehem Steel Company and 1,500 tons with the Lackawanna Steel Com pany. "While the demand for pife Iron is improving, this branch of trade is not showing the same strength as-finished steel products. Production is at a minimum. However, a cessation in the three months declining pis iron production Is indicated In our general statistics. The capacity of stacks in blast on May 1 wajs 70,T»95 tons; on June 1 Jt was 64,514 tons; while on July 1 it has dropped only to 63.698 tons. In other words, while the daily production in June averaged 8,590 tons less than it did in May. the capacity in blast oh July 1 was within 21R tons ah great as the June daily average, which was 63,916 tons. Of this dally average decrease of 3,590 tons against May, about three-fourths was repre sented in diminished output of steel making furnaces. In other words, the June pig iron production, 1,917,783 tons, is lower than last February's production and that much near the °w P" int of January, which was. 1,885,054 tons, the lowest production since the middle of 1911. The rate of production on June 1 .was less than 24,000,000 tons a year, while to-day it l S „«°nJr r 23,500,000 tons, against 33,- 500,00 tons in May, 1913."
