Secretary George d. Ellis, of the

large increase Of wheat acreage in Mis-
souri,. Temporarily at least wheat
will, to a large extent, be substituted
for corn, which fact Is partly due to
results Of the wheat crop. Secretary
Ellis said recently that In southwest
Missouri the increase In wheat acre
age amonts To 90 per cent, while a
general increase throughout the State
OF 81 per cent has been reported. Re-
garding the general crop prospects,
Mr.. Ellis said that 1t Is too early In
the season TO make a definite predic-
tion, as the damage to grass and other
vegetation has not been aseertained.
He stated, however, that an investi-
CATION has revealed the fact that the
earth directly under the surface Is
still very dry, and but little good has
resulted from the recent SHOWS. At
