HERALD TUESDAY, DECEMBER 17, 1918. DECATUR HERALD DECATUR Complete Grain, Produce and Livestock Markets CROP REPORT AFFECTS CORN Much Sold After Government Issues Estimate on Wheat CHICAGO, Dec. selling. of corn resulted today from the Gov-1 ernment crop report pointing to likelihood of an immense yield of winter wheat.

were seemed to be almost entirely port lacking. Speculate on Price After the official forecast of record; breaking wheat production had been made public, there was considerable speculation as to whether the Gov-1 ernment would sustain a loss in supporting the guaranteed price of $2.20 bushel through the 1919 production year. Opinion on the subject apparently was divided. Some officials said the Government is assured of full return on all the wheat consumed in the United States, because of the control of markets and shipping, and that American consumption probably will be greatly expended with all restrictions on its use removed. They also said it was not at all certain that even the prospective bumper crop of American wheat will produce a world surplus, with Russian sources shut off, and the new Argentine crop being absorbed now by France and England as fast as it is threshed.

In other quarters it was said. that with the war ended the great stocks of wheat in Australia and India will be available for world consumption, probably at prices below can guaranteed figure, If these stocks prove efifcient for European requirements some see possibility that the Government will lose on whatever surplus of wheat there is over domestic requirements. INCREASE IN STATE WASHINGTON, Dec. 16 States having sown more than a million acres of winter wheat, the percentage of increase and the condition of the; crop on Dec. 1, include: Illinois, 3,252,000 acres; 25 per cent; condition 100.
