"The latest information from Euro.

It is generally believed that In the ag.

100000 bushels. The weather has not
been very favorable, and considerable
damage has been sustained by heavy
rains and floods. In the United King

with unreasonable weather, and the
yield will be slightly under that Of last

Is little doubt but France will be a
fairly liberal importer of wheat dur
Ing the season of 1928. In Russia
the prospects have been favorable Tor

reports indicate a lighter crop than
In 1896. Winter wheat will probably
be somewhat under the average, while
spring wheat is in fairly good condi-

Germany the crops generally are in

Hungary, the prospects are not very
favorable and the wheat and rye crops
Will be smaller than last year. In
Roumania the outlook has been quito
good, but storms during the latter part
OF June damaged the wheat and rye
crops and reduced the yield at least
one-fourth. In Holland and Belgium
the prospects favor an average yield
OF wheat and most crops. In Portugal
the wheat crop will be very large
one and sufficient to give a supply two
months longer than usual. Reports
from Spain indicate that the yield Of
wheat and small grains will be only
moderate, considerable damage being
by storms. Italy will prob
ably secure a fairly good wheat crop.
Reports from India indicate that the
wheat yield will be about one-eighth
less than last year and that the ex-
portable surplus will be small. Pros
poets for wheat in Argentine are rather
favorable, and unless some damage Is
sustained by locusts, which have APP
peared in some provinces, the yield will
be fair and exportable surplus slightly

dicate favorable weather for the wheat
crop, and while the yield will not be
sufficient for an exportable surplus the
are that Australia can
hardly be Classed as an importing
country this year."

the flower is open so as to prevent
seeding, and again later to prevent
second seeding. The plants should be
raked up as soon as cut and burned
when dry. The surest way to destroy
the plants Is to pillow the patches and
cultivate frequently and Clearly dur
ing one or two years, either with or
without a hoed crop. In the case of
small patches, similar to some Of
those observed in Farmlngdale, It
would be sufficient to dig out the
plants and thus save further trouble.

trouble. In 1895 few plants were found
in West Gardiner aud reported ia
the Josselyn Botanical Society. Since
that time it has spread rapidly and
is found in many fields in Farming
dale, Gardiner and West Gardiner.
Mr.. H. X. Morrell has called atten-
ton to this weed through the local
press, but as the weed is spreading
rapidly and is equally as bad IS its
near relative, the Orange Hawkseed,
all the farmers Of the state should be
on guard against it. Prof. Harvey,
the station botanlst, visited Gardiner
and Vicinity June 20 and 30 and found
the plant thoroughly established In
many moving fields. The plant was
probably introduced with grass seed
from New York. During the last year
II has found its way into fields that
nave not been plowed for ten years.
Inc plant grows in patches, mating
the ground and killing all other Vege-
tation. Its rank growth and rapid
spreading show that 1t flourishes in
Maine climate and soil. The Orange
HaWkweed has been in the vicinity Of
Gardiner for twenty years. but during
that time has not spread as much as
the King-DeVil Weed has In two years.
It is very much like the Orange
Hawkweed in general appearance and
from the description and figure in the
station report for 1892, or bulletin 80,
there will be little trouble in recog-
nizing this weed. The King-Devil
Weed Is from eighteen inches to three
feet high. The hairy leaves are most
ly clustered at the root, although a few
leaves are borne on the lower part Of
the stalk. The summit of the stalk
bears cluster of yellow flowers, with
occasionally second cluster lower
down on the stem. The yellow is that
Of buttercups, making it hard to de-
tect in a field where buttercups are
numerous and in bloom. Its yellow
flowers and larger size readily enable
one to distinguish 1t from the Orange
Hawkweed which it otherwise resem-
bles. Like the Orange Hawkweed, its
roots live from year to year. It
spreads by runners both above and
under the ground, thus extending the
patches. 1t flowers early and abund-
antly. The seeds are provided with
hair-like appendages by which the
wind scatters them. II cut when in
bloom or before, the plant sends up
secondary flower shoots that mature
before fall. 1t is a very difficult weed
to control and should not be allowed
