World production Is placed by the
International Institute at 3,9*2.000,.
000 bushels, compared with 2.96i,
000,000 last year; the carry over at

37.000. 000; Argentina, 20.000.000; Aus

1922, the total imports of thews coun
tries amounted to 693,000,000 bushels.

imports in proportion to the decrease
in production or from 693,000,000 to
923.000. 000 bushels.
