August crop returns show cotton and wheat prospects improve
Washington reports the Agriculture Department's August crop returns from about six thousand reporters for fifteen hundred principal counties. Cotton conditions rose from 92 to 94, higher than last August but below 1880. Wheat for August signals better prospects than several years, with statewide averages in Wisconsin 98 Minnesota 98 Iowa 93 Dakota 99 Nebraska 103 Colorado 96. Winter and spring wheat may exceed 500 million bushels, though over-optimistic 15 to 20 percent estimates could lower farmers' prices. London notes good quality wheat in England and France's crop slightly damaged by rain.
