BUILT rLAXE IN HOME New Vork Oswald Knlspel, Ger man mechanic, has one of the neat REPORTS POINT TO INCREASED YIELD OF WINTER WHEAT Unofficial Estimates to -Show Greater Supply Than Government Reports BY JOHN P. BOUGHAN Asosdated Press Slarket Editor Chicago OR Forthcoming un-cHdal reports of the Juno condition of domestic winter wheat are expected to surest some increase yield compared with the government's latest figures. Trade authorities here say that although many reports have been current telling of hesslan fly and other damage west and southwest, with frequent mention made of small heads, there does not seem to have been sufficient loss to offset Improvement elsewhere.

On the other hand, returns available indicate little hope of Europe obtaining a liberal crop this season. Influenced by the mixed outlook, wheat this morning was IregulaT, ranging from a bushel setback to i-lc advance, compared to a week ago, with corn 1-2 down, oats -1 Jc off, and provisions unchanged to a rise of 30c. The present prospect is for a new top record carry-ove- suply of wheat in the United States on July 1, about 270,000,000 bu. compared with the previous high record, 215,000,000 bu. in 1929.

This increase, however, promises to be more than counterbalanced by reductions in Europe, Canada and the southern hemisphere. Taken as a whole, the word's end-of-the-season carryover suply of wheat on Jjily 1, it is indicated, will show about 100,000,000 bu. curtail' rnent for the year, a remarkable ex' hibit in view of the unprecedented big stock at the beginning of 1929 and the relatively small purchases made by importing countries since, It is now being pointed out that last year's wheat crop in Europe was a freak, as practically all countries had an abnormal Irge growth per 'acre. Conditions, however, have not been right, for duplicating such a re1 suit. Judged by advices received here to date, Europe's harvest this season, exclusive of Russia, may easily fall below average.

Chicago market experts say the effect of sue han event would be rather dras tie so far as world import needs are concerned. A reason given is that only because Europe carired oyer a large quantity of grain from the previous season was it possible to get along ol. the meager quant.ty taken this season, about 650,000,000 the small est amount the world has shipped in more than eight Corn is showing the market ef feet of enlarged receipts and of well ahead of normal for this time of year. Oats receipts are also larger, and stocks are ample, with the new oats crop only a few weeks away. An upward slant In the provision market is ascribed to augmented de mar.d associated with the opening of the outdoor vacation ssason; CHICAGO GRAIN TABLE SSTHE NEW HOME I '-am.

Fully nine tenths of this thrifty five per cent are deprived of the joys of home-ownership solely because they have a chronic case of BY JOHN P. BOUGIIAN Associated Press Market Editor Chicago Of) Despite month-end selling of May wheat and lack of buying support for that month except from farm board allies, wheat values today averaged higher. Terrific dust-storms that were said to have swept across parts of the Canadian prairie provinces had considerable influence toward lifting wheat prices at times.

In some cases, SO to 50 per cent loss to Canadian wheat was reported to have been caused by the dust blizzards. Among the Canadian crop dnm.1-advices at hand today were some estimating the injury over lare u.vs as amounting to 15 per cent, with half the remainder of the crop in the Saskatchewan region referred to set back a week or 10 days. Consequent price upturns here, however, were followed by a decided reaction bases to a considerable degree on a monthly summary from a Chciago crop expert indicating that the United States 1930' winter wheat harvest promises a yield of 649,331,000 compared with his latest previous forecast of 640,000,000 bu. A decline of only 2.5 per cent in the condition of domestic winter wheat during May was given as the chief reason for today's Increased unofficial crop estimate. The average condition decline in May for the last 10 years has been 6.6 per cent.

The greatest May change reported this year in any state was for Nebraska, where 7,000,000 bu. lost Is attributed to Hessian fly. Eastern demand today for corn was slow with good progress reported as having been made in field work over Memorial day. An authors itative unofficial crop report sug-gested a 5 per cent increase in the acreage of corn this season. Oats were unsettled advancing early but reacting later.
