WHEAT-CooI weather has prevailed
over the winter wheat belt the past week,
preventing a TOO rapid growth of the
plant. which is highly beneficial Reports
from all the winter wheat states are very
f9yorable and the plant is maintaining its
high average everywhere. In some sec
lions in the northern belt there was some
apprehension from frost and freezing
joint but it is not believed any harm has
been done. From an parts of the world
except some reseeded sections in France
ana germany; comes Hatterlng reports Of
very favorable conditions which is un-
usual at this time of the year The spring
wheat crop is generally reported to be go
ing into the ground under favorable CON
ditiOns. with an acreage in the aggregate
slightly larger than last year. In this
state the growing wheat and grass crops
as a whole continue in splendid condition.
in some sections of the southern part
there are few scattered complaints that
the wheat plant Is not DONG as well as II
could, but these complaints are not ex-
