Wheat Shortage Is Acute.
Imperative orders restricting mill
operations tho remaining four mouths
of tho crop year woro Issuod lnit
wook by tho millings dlvlHlon ot the
food ndmlnlfltratlon. Tho need of dis
tributing tho rest of the wheat crop
ovonly until tho next harvest, and of
reducing domestic comuuii'tlon,
prmti-U'd tho move.
Reports on tho movement of whaat
and receipts at central inarkuts tho
past. months have indicated that (he
acuto stage of tho wheat supply nitua
lion Is approaching faster than oxpoct
cd. All mills in the Kansas City zone
aro restricted to 7B per cent of their
normal output prior to this year
Those that have reached that limit
must closo at onco and other must
dlstrlbuto their remaining allotment
thru the next four months. Iho order i
meanB a largo reduction In the pro
duction of Hour between now and next
July.
The evident shortage of whoat must,
result In a steadily Increasing demand
for substitutes. Orders of tho food ad
ministration recently Issued requiring
wholesalers and retail ilea Iocs to sell
no flour except to purchasers hiking
proportionate amounts of other cor on 1
products already has greatly stimulat
ed demand for corn, oats and barley.
Slnco this ordor was mado, two weeks
ago, milling grades of com have ad
vanced 10 to 25 conts, oats 2 to
cents and barley about 20 conto. Last
wfok white corn sold as high as $2.10
white oats 91 conts, barloy $2, all
now high records, except for the rem
nant of tho old corn crop last fall
Thcso prices make substitute cost
actually more to mako than wheat
'flour at tho prosont fixed government
prions for wheat.
