Show of wheat and the income to United States wheat growers from the 1938 crop, as the Bureau points out, may be expected to be materially lower than during the current marketing season. Prospective world wheat, supplies for the year beginning July 1, 1937 (excluding Soviet Russia and China), Chi-na), are estimated at about the same as last year, since world production pro-duction estimates during the past month were revised upward by 50 million bushels and carry-over stocks upward by 10 million bushels. The crop in the Northern Hemisphere, Hemis-phere, not including Soviet Russia and China, is indicated at about 3,-354,000,0u0 3,-354,000,0u0 bushels or 288 million more than last year's.

With average yields, an area of 81 million acres would produce a crop of 950 million bushels. This year's . crop will be about 890 million, according ac-cording to the report. About 650 j million bushels are used annually in i the United States, and the remain- I der is available for carry-over and i export.
